mopheads

Unruly tousled hairstyles

Mopheads are people with thick, shaggy hair resembling a mop—the Beatles were famously called mopheads when they arrived in America.

The term also applies to plants with dense, rounded flower clusters: mophead hydrangeas, mophead chrysanthemums.

A mophead mop has a round head of absorbent strings rather than a flat pad.
