When I got my hair cut in late first pregnancy, the stylist told me that my
curly hair would get straighter if I breastfed as she had seen that
frequently (I live in an area with a high-rate of breastfeeding). At the
time I dismissed it as a wives' tale. A few months later, I reclassified
that as wives' wisdom--indeed, my hair was much straighter during my 10
years of breastfeeding. And now has gone back to being almost as curly in
the decade since weaning. And I've heard lots of other similar anecdotes of
changing from curly to straight and vice versa...
