As we all know, Blake was born with a full head of hair. It's one of his most remarkable features – that and his huge Silverthumb eyes. After everyone comments on his lush mane of hair, they want to know if he's worn a bald patch in the back yet. Nope. But there's a new threat to his hair...

Looks innocent, doesn't it? He's fallen into the habit of sucking his thumb and twirling his hair at the same time. The eerie thing is that his Aunt Pixie did the exact same thing when she was a baby. She did it for so many years that she started to pull out locks of hair, and both her parents were heard to yell, "Pixie! Thumb! Hair!" whenever they saw her doing it. I don't want Blakers to pull out his pretty hair, but I don't want to yell at him, either. What to do.

But it's a neat argument for blind genetic behaviour, isn't it?
