teased hair

Deliberately tangled locks

Teased hair is hair that has been backcombed to create volume and lift.

The technique involves pushing strands backward toward the scalp with a comb, creating a tangled, puffy texture that holds height: She teased her hair into a towering bouffant.

The style was especially popular in the 1960s and in 1980s rock fashion.
