Interesting, I never thought of twirling hair as a problem.....but watched my daughter do it most of her 27 yrs so far. I know she is under some stress right now....& it seemed worse when she was here for my Mothers, (her grandmothers) funeral. Your post reminded me of what I have seen, but I never noticed it enough to even mention it to her.

Doesn't seem to bother her in the least...she is doing outstanding in college, managing a home with her boyfriend, her kitty, & his dog....all in all....pretty well adjusted considering that she had me as a Mom.

Don't worry too much about it....but if it bothers you or those around you....it's better to try & break the habit.
