These curls are called (plural) peiyot. The custom of allowing the hair in that area to grow, is a voluntary stringency based on (Leviticus 19:27) "...and do not destroy the corners of your beard." These corners were interpreted by the rabbis (Talmud, Makkot 20a) to mean the hair in front of the ears extending to beneath the cheekbone, on a level with the nose.
