What is this single super curly hair? (lemmy.ml)

I found this super curly / coily hair.

Generally my hair is wavey, and has very gentle curls that can make rolls.

This single strand (cut out) gets more and more coily towards the end, unlike my normal hair.

It feels bumpy, and light reflects off it inconsistently, almost as if the hair root is twisted.

I cut it off at the part where it didn't seem to be doing the weird coily (towards the top of the image).

This could be a sign of serious case of uromysitisis.

Have you been consuming excessive amounts of beanis?

Not a doctor or specialist.

Rarely do people have the same hair all over their head. Different parts of the scalp produce different strands of hair. Sometimes people with straight hair might have a patch or a few strands of curly hair. Or gray hair may grow in patches, bands or randomly. Having a weird strand of hair could be related to diet, damage to the area or a lot of factors. I would be happy for the anomaly and move on.

You do raise a good point, thank you for reminding me that the uniqueness of my hair is something to find a smile in.
