I was talking to my sheital macher and friend, same person. She speaks english fluently, but it is not her first language. She said something about bushy hair. I told her that is not a good description because of what it usually indicates. Should I get my mind out of the gutter or is that your first thought too?

My hair has always been thin and straight. Maybe that’s why I don’t think of that.

My immediate thought would be Hermione from Harry Potter 😀 She is described as having bushy hair, which means kinda frizzy and unruly.

Bushy hair is still used to describe that kind of textured hair. Even if it's also used for other parts. |
I also thought hermione.

I think it's not american english but rather british, which is why you're all thinking of a character written by an english author. In the uk, it's quite normal to say a girl has bushy hair to mean thick and unruly.

Yes! I believe this is how she was described in the book.
Either way; it's NOT a compliment.
I doubt you changed my association with the phrase bushy hair. I'll still think of hermione.
