Lock of hair (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

tress

quiff

'lock of hair' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tress that I've seen before include "Long lock or plait of hair" , "Switch" , "Braid of hair" , "Obsolete support" , "is a bit of a shock" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Penny Press, The Sunday Times, the LA Times, The Times, The Sun, the King Feature Syndicate, the USA Today, The Mirror, the Universal, the Evening Standard, The Star Tribune, the Newsday, The Independent and The New York Times.
