TOP DEFINITION

Chiskop definition 1

Slang for a shaved head or very close haircut (like a buzz cut). It comes from a brand of insecticide once used for treating lice – if you had lice, they'd shave your head and apply "Chiskop." Now it just means a bald/shaved hairstyle.

"For summer he decided to go full chiskop – much cooler without hair in this heat, though now he needs a cap to avoid sunburn on his head."
