Is it true that if have straight hair and you keep shaving your head (ie for a full year) once you let your hair grow out it will be curly?

[roberth]

No. I've been shaving my head for 15 years and it still grows straight.
Mum always said that if you eat your crusts your hair will go curly.

no. however if yo have curly hair unless you keep cutting your hair off, the longer it gets the straighter it gets i guess it's from the weight. but for some reason the last time i got my hair cut it is almost all the way down my back and it is still as curly as ever it,s hard to tell. I know that usually when my hair gets tis l ong it is straighter than a board and you can not brush it while it is dry. can anyone explan that?

My sister has cancer and lost her straight blonde hair to chemo.  When they changed her meds, it grew back curly and a different color (light grey-brown).  VERY curly.  It's a tough way to change from straight to curly hair.

How weird !!! That her hair changed from straight to curly ... I don't know much about hair but I do know that the reason people have curly hair is because the hair follicule or hole or whatever is a wonky shape, so the hair is a wonky shape instead of being cylindrical ( do you know what I mean?) and it falls over on itself because it's weak in certain points.

does anyone know why it is that after I wash my hair and it's semi dry it goes into loopy curls, but the rest of the time it's pretty much straight except for a bit of a wave at the bottom (which I think happens for a lot of people) also if I don't wash it every day, the evening of the day after I last washed it it goes a bit into curls and the day after if I still haven't washed it it goes into curls completely. Also when I was little my hair was curly but now it isn't. Does anyone know why my hair goes into curls sometimes but not others and why it went straight when I wasn't little anymore? Does that happen to a lot of people?

Am I dead? Am I alive? I'm both!

Never used to but my hair goes a little curly when it starts to grow longer.

I know both my mum and a friend's hair went quite curly after they had chemo.
