The care, cultivation, and treatment of hair, including hairstyling, hair health practices, and beauty care.
Formed from Latin capilli (hair) plus English culture (cultivation or care), following the pattern of agriculture and horticulture.
Capilliculture is a fancy word for what hair stylists and dermatologists do—but using it shows how English borrowed Latin structure to create specialized vocabulary for different professions!
