Sharpened
A fleck on His Sword
I have been natural for 20 years, so there is no chemical residue left in my hair. Before oil rinsing made coils appear, this lil' piece got on my nerves because it would create massive webbing on the crown about the size of a silver bullion coin (1.6" or 40.6 mm). I just took extra care of that area, not thinking it was actually different than the rest of my hair.
Now, it likes to stick up like a Dennis-the-Menace cowlick. I tried twirling it to get it to match my hair, but it acts up as you can see in this pic below:
It is hard to see, but the texture is rough, stiff, and dry no matter what. The root area does not form a slight crimp like the rest of my hair does, just fizz.
Here is a comparison pic of it with a coil right next door:
Others have verified the texture difference, so it is not in my head. If anyone has any info about solving this condition, let me know.
