Jeremy Roenick (Professional hockey player) has a prime example of "flow". Flow may seem like just some random hairstyle that many hockey players shoot for, but having flow is more than just having long hair, it's a lifestyle. Urbandictionary defines "flow" as: Long, curly or wavey hair. Mostly a hockey term. Hair that would flow out the back of someone's helmet and curl up around the back of the helmet. Someone can have a flow or be flowin. To accomplish the "flow" , it takes practice and time. Simply having long hair does not do the job, you have to have a strong commitment to get the flow perfected. The practice of flow can fit into the definition of docile bodies, just more of the hair factor than the body itself. One has to be willing and dedicated to obtaining flow. Having flow isn't just about having cool, long hair, it makes a statement, a statement saying that I worked hard for this, sort of like working for that perfect, "Chiseled by the gods" body that people shoot for.
My roommates and I were talking about this last night actually. Flow definitely signifies a "cool" guy who can play hockey. When my roommate told my other roommate he had "flow" going, it brought a smile to his face. This sense of accomplishment provided him with pleasure. "Flow" was probably coined by a excellent hockey player. Now people want to be like him and are dedicated to looking like him. And hey we live in Minnesota where hockey is THE sport. So I expect to see all the gopher hockey players with flow, and if win and show their perfection then many will try to obtain flow in order to go with the flow.
