ungroomed
Lacking regular maintenance
Ungroomed describes something or someone that has not been tidied, trimmed, or maintained in appearance.
A person who is ungroomed may have messy hair, unkempt facial hair, or a generally disheveled look.
An ungroomed dog needs brushing or a bath.
Ski slopes or trails that are ungroomed have not been smoothed or prepared for use: We prefer the challenge of ungroomed backcountry runs.
