I read that poodles have curly hair because they went into the water a lot, because they were work dogs helping people catch their fowl etc. Does human curly hair come from being in the water too?

Well I was wondering this because I swim a lot. I have straight hair, but I noticed it gets wavy and almost curly if I let it air dry. It sort of springs up.

I don't think its too unreasonable to come to this conclusion. I was reading about poodles and it is widely thought poodle hair became tight and curly to protect them and keep them warm. They were working dogs and they went into the water frequently. If you don't know, why answer "Are you serious?" Thats not really an answer.
