Yes, the way your hair grows is determined by the shape of the hair follicle that it passes through on it's way out. It's like running a ribbon over a pair of scissors. It will curl. If, as you grow, the follicles on your scalp change their shape than the hair passing through them (as it grows out) will either curl or be straight as it grows.

Does it mean I'm not the father my partner and i has curly hair but your grown child has straight hair?
Not at all. The curly-hair gene is dominant, meaning only one of the two genes for hair curl has to be set to "on" to give you curly hair. For the heck of it, C is curly hair and c is straight hair. If you are Cc (one curly gene, one straight) and your partner is Cc, you have a 25-percent chance of producing a straight-haired kid: the child could be CC, Cc with the C gene from you, Cc with the C gene from your partner or cc. And in this case, the child is cc. So yeah, you and your partner definitely could have produced a straight-haired child.
