Description

### Current behaviour
When rendering a TextInput with a value, the component flickers as it loads. Tested with `outlined` and `flat`.

### Expected behaviour
No flicker.

### How to reproduce?
1. open snack
2. open TextInput
3. open and close "New inputs" a few times, you'll feel the flicker. It's much more noticeable on my mobile where everything runs slower than on desktop
