You are correct. That's exactly what it was. Interestingly, these occur only on the backs of my legs right above the knees. I suppose it's the part that has the most pressure when I sit down (pressure from the edge of the chair).

Hey Victor,
It looks like an "ingrown" hair to me. These are very common, especially in places where there are many follicles and constriction or close contact with clothing. I sometimes get ingrown hairs on the back of my thighs where the pants rub away the hair. These are usually curly. This would be easy to test by removing it a tweezer and looking for the root. Have you tried this?
