tresses
Long flowing locks
Tresses are long locks of hair, especially a woman's.
The word is literary and somewhat old-fashioned, evoking romantic or poetic imagery: Her golden tresses cascaded over her shoulders.
It typically appears in the plural and suggests flowing, luxuriant hair rather than a simple hairstyle.
