Default WTH is "bouncy" hair??

I don't think I've ever seen anyone with bouncy hair.

I certainly have never had bouncy hair.

What the heck does it mean? That it moves when you walk? When you jump up & down?

I don't believe it exists in real life....

At shoulder length, my hair is very bouncy. It bounces when I walk. It bounces if my conversation is animated. It super bounces if I run

Past APL, less bounce.

It means it moves when you walk, IMO, or just has a lot of movement in general (like in a gentle wind, lol). My hair is def not bouncy....maybe when it's longer.

It exists though - one little, curly haired girl I worked with this summer had SUPER bouncy hair, it had a life of it's own. I walked behind her during a field trip once and even though she was walking normally, her ponytail was swinging to and fro like crazy....even swung in a full circle sometimes, it was mesmerizing.

Wow. I must have the most un-bouncy hair ever. Although - if my hair was bouncy - at this length I'm sure it would frighten people. Or be a potential hazard.

I need to get out more often....

Your hair looks very long (and beautiful! btw), it's probably too heavy to have much bounce. Maybe if you put it in a high ponytail.....

My hair is very un-bouncy too, I actually think it's too short to be.....most bouncy hair IMO is around shoulder, APL length.

When my hair is shorter and forms ringlets they bounce. Just like a spring....bounce...bounce...bounce.

Okay this is WAYyyyy TMI. (It is one of the things my hubster likes about me on top.)

Same thing with the bf. I had it in a ponytail one time and he yanked off the scrunchie to watch the hair bounce.

A lady in Zumba class told me she loves how my curls bounce around when I dance. I hadn't noticed before she said that.
