Unless the word "kinky" is being used to refer to a curl pattern, in which case we can't call it "kinking" - but then I don't know what to call it. "Torque" would work pretty well. Think of kinking as a rotation of the hair shaft around its center. Like taking a piece of taffy and twisting it in the middle. Whereas curling of any sort is a rotation around a middle that doesn't actually exist. You can wrap a curl around a toothpick, or a crochet hook, a pencil - to define the diameter of the center of the curl. A wave usually has a curl-shaped center, but it doesn't strictly rotate, it undulates back and forth.WShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604766377332720162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4000955270225133681.post-17295325590791364062018-07-31T15:00:30.699-05:002018-07-31T15:00:30.699-05:00How can wavy hair be kinky?
