A tool or device used to friz or curl hair, particularly a heated iron used for crimping.
From 'friz' (to curl) with the diminutive or agent suffix '-el,' creating a noun for the implement that performs the frizzing action.
Before electric curling irons, a frizel was a specially designed metal rod that was heated on stoves and used to crimp hair—using one required careful skill to avoid burns!
