Brief Answer:
Normal in absence of other symptoms.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
At the end of your period, it is normal to have some amount of irregular discharge.
This can be brownish, slimy, or clot like.
This happens as the remaining endometrial tissue ( lining of the uterus ) gets shed off.
It can be the consistency of egg whites, or thread like.
Can you elaborate what you mean by hairy textured ?
If there is no itching / odour / foul smell / redness / burning or pain, then the discharge is normal.
All the best
