(kleine) Löckchen

Ich muss gestehen, dass ich diesen Ausdruck noch nie gehört habe, aber mein PONS Lexiface liefert mir dazu "Löckchen". Vielleicht kann ein Muttersprachler das bestätigen oder widerlegen. :-)
Peer comment(s):
agree Melanie Nassar : I suppose you might call it this. If the hair was long enough, the result was Korkenzieher. // Korkenzieher was only one possible result, for shorter hair, it would just be, well, "Löckchen", kind of soft and fluffy, like in the 40s.

Maybe that's it: Korkenzieherlocken. You should post it as an own suggestion.
