Flyaway
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Flyaways (rarely used in the singular form flyaway) are individual hairs unintentionally "sticking out" from otherwise styled hair. While very common (especially if it has been a while since the hair was combed) and completely harmless from a medicial point of view, it is often seen as undesirable, and some people will go to great lengths to avoid it. One way to avoid it is to use hair wax when styling it. Flyaways can be seen in all types of hair but is particularly common in hair that has been damaged by too much time in the sun, extreme temperatures or by treatment with bleaching agents. Flyaways are often associated with certain negative stereotypes such as The Mad Scientist. Flyaways are often removed when retouching photographs.
