EN: cowlick; whirlpool
That stubborn patch of hair on your head that has its own life and refuses to cooperate with your comb, gel, or life decisions. It's the original 'bad hair day' culprit. It can also mean a small whirlpool, which is basically a balinsuso for water.
More commonly used to refer to a cowlick. The 'whirlpool' meaning is less common.
