It has always gotten blonder streaks in the summer if I get any sun.

It has always had plenty of "body" and a will of its own. It is now wavy, but if I want it straight, I just have to take 20 minutes to blow it dry. And on special occasions, if I bother with a curling iron, it holds a curl pretty well.

Every hairdresser I have ever used has told be I am lucky, because I have a lot of hair, but it is fine in texture (a.k.a. "slippy hair" - I need to redo a ponytail several times during the day). I do, however, have the Peterson family cowlicks, so the hair on the back of my head will never be shorter than 4 inches long, or it would stick straight up, right, Lady's Human? (He goes the opposite - keeps it short enough so you can't tell.)
Ohnoes! That reminds me of my brothers cowlick for some reason. All the way back, as long as I can remember, up until a couple of years ago, my brother always had a cowlick in the front right on his forehead. It stuck straight up. I never had it but it seems that the 'lick had a mind of its own and now I have a problem with it sticking up in the front!
