I know this is from "Hair", and this is a physics blog, but this article by Jean-Baptiste Masson from the American Journal of Physics is a physics article talkin' 'bout hair. We address the question of hair tangles and show experimentally that curly hair tends to become less tangled than straight hair. A statistical model based on geometry confirms our findings. The model gives an interesting geometric approach to hair behavior.As a curly haired type I always assumed the opposite (although I can't say I've owned a comb for a long long time), but that's what you get when you actually go look. Go figure.

U HAVE KEWL HAIR. SORRY THAT IM THE ONLY PERSON THATS READ UR BLOG. TOUGH LUCK. KEWL HAIR THO.
That is an awful thing to post. You are hurting the feelings of curly haired people all over the world.NOT!!! I love your hair!It is SICK!! (that means awesome!)
by the way, is it real?
nice hair bub. it is so bubbish.
aren't u supposed to be talking about physics?
