It has to create a reasonable fear of injury. If not, then it's not assault. We are to assume that if I were to "assault" LIL with clippers, that we would have met at some point, and that she would therefore know who I am. And I doubt a friend sneaking up on you and shaving a patch of your hair can be considered to create a reasonable fear of injury.
