frizzed up

Hair became unruly

Frizzed up describes hair that has become frizzy—puffed out, curly, and unruly, often from humidity or damage.

The phrase can describe an intentional style or an unwanted result: My hair got all frizzed up in the rain.

Someone might also frizz up their hair deliberately for volume or texture.
