tousle-headed
Hair wildly unkempt
Tousle-headed describes someone whose hair is disheveled, rumpled, or messily tangled—as if just woken from sleep or windblown: a tousle-headed boy came down for breakfast.
The term carries an affectionate or endearing tone, typically applied to children or to adults in informal, intimate moments.
