Etymology
The word 'coiffure' originates from the French language, where it literally means 'to do the hair' or 'to style the hair'. It is derived from the Old French word 'coiffer', which means 'to cover or to style the hair'. The term has been present in the English language since the 19th century, primarily associated with fashion and beauty. In certain contexts, it may reflect not just the physical style of hair but also the artistry and technique involved in creating elaborate hairstyles. As the beauty industry evolved, so did the use of the term, encompassing a wide range of styles from casual to highly intricate designs.
