Mermaids with hair over their eyes are usually from deeper waters. The sea floor has almost no light, so deep sea mermaids (few of which have functional eyes) visiting the surface would be blinded by the sun. 

To mermaids, covering their eyes with hair is similar to sunglasses.

Deep sea mermaids are also shy, accustomed to dark waters for hiding their monstrous appearances.

Freshwater Mermaid: Howdy y'all, I’d like you to meet my cousin. She’s a little shy :)
