Khokhol

Khokhol (Russian: хохол—khokhol, khakhol), a Russian name for an element of the haircut: a long lock of hair left on top or on the front of the otherwise cleanly shaven or shortly cut man's hair. Also used by Russians as a derogatory name for Ukrainians, as it was a common haircut of Ukrainian Cossacks, historically often foes of Russian tsars.

The Ukrainian name for this type of haircut is oseledets (оселедець, "herring") or chub (чуб). There are some Ukrainian surnames derived from this word.
