Fervent-haired

Fervent-haired describes an individual, particularly a woman, with hair that is intensely passionate, enthusiastic, or spirited in color and/or texture. This evokes a sense of vibrancy, fiery energy, and often, a bold personality. The term can be used literally, referring to intensely colored hair, such as bright red, fiery orange, or even highly textured hair that seems to vibrate with energy. Metaphorically, it implies a spirit that is equally ablaze with conviction and passion.
