I proved evolutionary theory with my hair

[rena]

Yesterday was so hot and humid that my hair curled up into spirals. So I fingercombed it out into a fro so it sort of stood up, and I cooled off pretty quickly. I thought this would be worth sharing since becoming a big poofball actually helped me! Haha.

Anyone else ever do this? Did it work for you?

Is this why African hair is so curly? awesome!

Lunnafindel, that is actually one of the theories in the scientific community. Although there are several other ideas. I remember a while ago there was an article in Scientific American that discussed the evolutionary purpose of hair. Lol, nice to see that it actually cooled you off :D

yes in europe or other cold areas, you don't need protection agaisnt the sun on your scalp, so the curl will loosen ^^: up North people have really straight hair
