quiffs

Swept-up hair tufts

Quiffs are a hairstyle where hair is brushed upward and back from the forehead, creating volume at the front.

The style has roots in 1950s rock and roll but cycles through fashion periodically: He styled his quiffs with pomade.

In British slang, quiff can also be vulgar slang for the vulva, though the hairstyle sense dominates.
