Polish term or phrase: sypkie włosy
Chodzi o pozytywne wyrażenie, przeciwieństwo włosów, które są oklapłe/strąków. Totalnie wypadło mi z głowy, a kiedyś już znalazłam (ale pamiętam, ze nie było łatwo)

English translation:fluffy hair, or bouncy hair appearance
Explanation:
Fluffy hair
For starters, fluffy hair is considered the happy medium between a messy texture and a blowout. So, while your strands sport a smooth, shiny, and bouncy appearance, it has a bit of texture for a balanced look. On the other hand, poofy hair refers to hair with a lot of volume and a frizzy appearance.

Bardzo dziękuję wszystkim za sugestie. ta odpowiedź, tzn. "bouncy" wydaje mi się najbliższa, choć niestety żadna nie jest dokładnie tym czego szukam, gdyż każda ma inny bliższy odpowiednik. Jak kiedyś sobie przypomnę to słowo, które znalazłam już jakiś czas temu, to pewnie wrócę.
