If Snow White’s mother lived in the eighties, she might have wished for a child with lips as red lip candy, eyebrows as bushy as, er, bushes, shoulders so strong no shoulder pads were necessary…and (now we come to the point) hair as poufy as a dandelion tuft.
This last part is applicable. Anyone remember that moment in Firefly when River is freaked out by the shepherd’s hair? (Zoe: “River, honey, he’s putting the hair away now.”) Well…unless my hair is wet when I brush it, that is exactly what happens. It’s like I was born in the eighties, and my mom asked a fairy to my christening, and the fairy “blessed” me with The Hair That Never Needs To Be Teased.
Wait a second. Mom, you didn’t…?

my secret is out…I asked your fairy godmother to give you a brain that could solve the problems of the world, and she raised her (perfect ) brow, “are you certain?” she asked. “The last mother that asked for that was Einsteins’s, and the brain development does unpredictable things to the hair”…I responded “as long as you can assure me that she won’t have mle pattern baldness like Einstein , I’ll take the risk”. Et, Voila!
