Hairstyle that is a hit (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bang

This clue is a double definition.

'hairstyle' is the first definition.
(bang is a kind of hairstyle)

'a hit' is the second definition.
('bang' can be a synonym of 'hit')

'that is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for bang that I've seen before include "Sudden impact" , "Sound of explosion" , "Strike violently" , "Sudden loud noise (often 'big')" , "hit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
