Definition
Having messy, tangled, or disorganized hair or clothing; looking untidy or unkempt.
Etymology
Past participle of 'dishevel,' used as an adjective. British spelling uses 'dishevelled' with double 'l,' while American English typically uses 'disheveled' with single 'l,' following the pattern of British/American spelling divergence.
Kelly Says
The word 'dishevelled' was famously used to describe Sherlock Holmes—his dishevelled appearance was actually a sign of his genius, showing he was too absorbed in thought to care about grooming conventions.
