thatchy
Like dried grass
Thatchy describes something resembling thatch—the dried straw or reeds used for roofing.
It typically characterizes hair that's thick, coarse, and unruly: His thatchy blond hair stuck out at odd angles.
The word suggests texture more than messiness, evoking a dense, straw-like quality.
