frizzy
Full of kinks
Frizzy describes hair that forms a mass of tight, unruly curls or kinks, often from humidity or dryness: My hair gets frizzy in the summer.
The word usually implies hair that's difficult to manage or style, standing out from the head rather than lying smooth.
To frizz is to form such curls; frizz is the condition itself.
