Can anyone tell me what this one hairstyle is called?

Question

ok well it's like in my avatar well the front part of your hair is pulled back and puffed up kind of. it's kind of old but i'd appreciate if anyone would tell me what it's called =]

Answer 1

there are many names for it. most call it a quiff but some call it a pompadour. pompadour was used in the older days to discribe something similar to it. i have also heard people call them poofs but that doesnt sound as professional so i just say quiff.

Answer 2

the pouf or pompadour...
