A nape whorl is like a double crown except it is located at the nape (bottom, back of the hair but not on the hairline).
A Whorl is a section of hair that grows in a circular pattern. A nape whorl is a whorl of hair that grows at the nape of the neck, whorls can also grow on one's crown.
It would affect it because if you cut the hair short the nape whorl can be seen sticking up and there is nothing you can do with it. A short cut would not look right. You have to leave the hair long to cover it and the weight of the hair will pull it down.
It would not be advisable to cut out nape whorls,it is better to have a hairstyle suited for the hair growth pattern. Hair stylist

There are four growth patterns: * widow's peak * cow lick * nape whorl * double crown Widow's peak is where there is a hood of hair on the forehead (like Dracula) where the hair comes down into a point. A cow lick is where the hair has a tendency to stick up and is hard to style. It is mostly found at the forehead too. The nape whorl is at the nape (back of the head over the neck). Both sides have hair that grows in a circular direction. The double crown is at the top of the head (the swirl you can see on the head). The double is that you have two of these swirls. These growth patterns are inherited.
That a loop is curved and a whorl is shaped like a wave.
A whorl is a group of concentric circles.
A 'V' haircut is where the hair is shaved at the temples down (the sides). At the back the hair is shaved down at an angle from the crown to the nape to look like the shape 'V'.
