1-1. naturally curly hair - OK?
1-2. natural wave - OK?
1-3. natural permanent (wave) - NO?
2. natural senility
Just like myself, who forgot the most
important wedding reception and lots of others at the age of 40 or so.
If 2 doesn't work, is there any other word?
Thank you.

Hi Itasan
1-1 OK
1-2 OK
1-3 I would not use "natural" with "permanent" (perm)
2. natural senility? Not a typical word partnership.
Senility at 40? Hmmm, that's more like premature senility.
Maybe you're absent-minded?

Thank you, Amy.
I have learned new things again.
1. word partnership
2. premature senility.

there's another phrase we use, when someone forgets something:
"having a senior moment"
Of course if one is not a "senior citizen", it's just plain absent-mindedness.

Thank you very much, sbourque.
Do you say 'brain fart'?

In England we don't have brain fart, but it could easily catch on. LOL
But we do have '*beep* for brains'.
Someone can have SFB. - 'He has SFB'
Someone can be (a) SFB - 'You SFB'
If someone is slow witted, not concentrating, or unable to concentrate; they may be likened to 'a fart in a trance'.
