Salut tout le monde! Hello everyone! 
I thought it would be good to compile a list of alternative (including slang) words for body parts - starting with the head, working downwards and including insides + organs as well. I have chosen not to include gender-specific parts) I thought if somebody French came over and heard people talking about the barnet or the ticker they'd be totally stumped! I imagine possibly some American English speakers too? Please remember this is from a British English speaker!
OK here goes

Hair - cheveux
alternative words: tresses, locks, barnet
(usage - tresses and locks are quite romantic and poetic words, not likely that they'd be used in everyday speech. Barnet is slang, my mother used to shout "have you brushed your barnet?!" It's a bit Londoner sounding, even though she's not from there, Hmmm.)
