MoogleViper Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Does anybody know how to get rid of car flicks (if there is a way)? I have three across my fringe and they are so annoying.

Bowser57 Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 i think he means cow licks! they are bits of hair that just wont stay down! I think he's maybe heard people calling them "calf licks".
DCK Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Make them wet, blow a hairdryer over it until they're flat and dry and correct with gel. Presto.
MoogleViper Posted July 16, 2006 Author Posted July 16, 2006 What the hell is a car flick O_O It's some hair that grows the wrong way. If you have short hair it makes it stand on end but if you have long hair it gives you a sort of curtains effect. I do straightem my hair and that doesnt get rid of them.
Shorty Posted July 16, 2006 Posted July 16, 2006 Thought this thread was going to be asking about movies to do with cars... I had already thought up "Herbie: Fully loaded". Damn.

When I tried to search my problem in google it kept coming up with car movies. Maybe they are called calf licks?
Platty Posted July 16, 2006 Posted July 16, 2006 I know it as a Cows Lick.... i used to have one before the baldness started. Just used to leave it or stick all my hair up :P
MoogleViper Posted July 16, 2006 Author Posted July 16, 2006 They are called cow licks. Source: wikipedia A cowlick is a swirl of unruly hair that doesn't comb down properly. It is usually combed over to avoid showing baldness. Alfalfa of Our Gang (later The Little Rascals), Martin Short's Ed Grimley character, and Jim Carrey's Ace Ventura character have some famous pop-culture cowlicks. Cowlicks are caused when hair follicles on the scalp grow in a spiral pattern, usually clockwise. The most common cowlick position is at the back right corner of the head (like Dennis the Menace), but they can appear at other positions on the scalp as well. Some people have cowlicks that do not form spirals. Instead the hair follicles grow in a different direction than the rest of the follicles on the scalp. For instance, hair growing outward may be contrasted by hair growing inward, causing the hair to stick up instead of lying down.
