Yes Lord Narasimha touched the head of Prahlada Maharaja

Subal das got this wrong : Subalaji what Srimad Bhagavatam are you reading > Text 5: When Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva saw the small boy Prahlāda Mahārāja prostrated at the soles of His lotus feet, He became most ecstatic in affection toward His devotee.

Chapter 11 of Krsna Bhavanamrta - Sastra Caksusa
