Curl ˈkər(-ə)l (verb) [Middle English crullen, curlen, from crulle, curly, perhaps of Middle Low German origin.]
transitive verb: 1: to form (as the hair) into coils or ringlets 2: to form into a curved shape : twist <curled his lip in a sneer> 3: to furnish with curls

So, I’ve had my hair curled. And how awesome is it that the intransitive verb mentions one of my favourite foods (bacon) and the sport of my favourite (non-native) country (Scotland)?! Yay!
Thanks, Lynn, for making my hair look so pretty!
(Oh, and a shot with pigtails, too. Because I love to wear my hair in bunches these days!)
I love it! The curl lifts your whole countenance. It’s quite lovely.
oooh lovely!
(reminds me i have a hair appointment this coming week – shorter or much shorter? but with such thick hair, not curls)
Thank you, ladies! I felt the need for a change and this seemed like a good idea. I’m certain I’ll want something else in a week’s time, but that’s OK. Hair grows!
