Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Function over fashion. Hair for teeth, especially if that makes me a blue whale.
I did not expect this! Thought this would be a straightforward teeth for hair question!
Well, I can't think of a creature that has anything related to external teeth instead of hair, less a few bizarre mutations that might have occurred.
Blue whales, on the other hand: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baleen
Isn't shark skin rough because it's basically covered in tiny teeth?
Huh, TIL. On reading about them, shark denticles primarily consist of dentin. Denticles are as close to teeth as baleen are to hair, I suppose.
I guess we could dig around and find more surprisingly logical answers to OPs question.
(Still, a shark or a whale is a decent choice.)
Hope you REALLY love shrimp. Or krill I guess but that's harder to find at the grocery store.
I do! While there are probably some major drawbacks, like having to swallow the occasional religious prophet or sentient log, it kinda sounds OK.
