baby hairs
Forehead's tiny strands
Baby hairs are the fine, short hairs that grow along the hairline, especially at the temples and forehead.
They're often too short to be pulled back into a ponytail or style.
In Black and Latina hair culture, baby hairs are deliberately styled—slicked down and sculpted into decorative swoops or waves with gel: She laid her baby hairs perfectly.
