Etymology

The word 'frizz' originates from the early 19th century, derived from the dialectal English term 'friss', which means to curl or to curl up. It is related to the Old English word ‘frisseth’, meaning to make into a frizz or to crinkle. The use of 'frizz' in relation to hair began to emerge prominently in hair care discussions during the late 20th century, particularly as hair styling evolved. The adjective 'frizzier' is formed by adding the comparative suffix '-ier' to 'frizzy', reflecting a greater degree of this quality. The popularization of various hair care products aimed at reducing frizz has further embedded the term into everyday language, especially in the beauty and fashion industries today.
