frizette

Where it comes from

From French frisette (“curl”).

noun frizettes · frisette

A fringe of hair or curls around a woman's forehead.
historical A pad of frizzed hair or silk formerly worn by women under the hair to stuff it out. This cover offers no impediment to the hairpins, which are much better preserved in this way than by being left about in an untidy fashion. In addition, there should be a tray with various kinds of combs, frizettes and bottles of perfumes.
