Curled

/kɜrld/ adjective

Definition

Bent or twisted into a round or spiral shape.

Etymology

Curled comes from the Old English 'curl,' which has unclear origins but may be related to Middle Dutch 'krul.' The -ed ending makes it an adjective describing something that has taken on a curved form.

Kelly Says

Hair can be curled temporarily with heat, but the actual shape of your hair curls depends on the protein structure called keratin—people with naturally curly hair have hair follicles that are curved from the root outward.
