Etymology
The term 'oping' appears to have originated from informal contexts, primarily among hairstylists and the younger demographic engaging in self-haircutting trends. It is derived from the word 'trim' or 'cut', which has been adapted in colloquial usage. Over time, as the popularity of home hairstyling increased, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, such terms became more prevalent. The informal nature of the term reflects a shift in how language evolves to fit modern practices, particularly in creative fields. While it lacks formal recognition in the lexicon of professional hairdressing, it has found a place among everyday language as people experiment with their hair. This dynamic is a testament to the way language reflects societal trends and practices.
