As far a I know are the color, thickness and curly-ness of hair genetically defined and not object to hormonal or other magical influences. 
Breastfeeding is a completely normal bodily function for all females of all mammalian species, it does not have any magical powers to alter inborn physical qualities, as some seem to believe.

Hi! 
I had a mother ask me if breastfeeding could cause her hair to be less curly than it used to be.  Does anyone have any information about that?

Thanks!
