Source : [Merriam -Webster](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/disheveled?ref=goodoil.news)

Etymology : Disheveled comes from Middle English discheveled, meaning “bareheaded” or “with disordered hair.” That word is partially based on Anglo-French deschevele, a combination of the prefix des- (“dis-“) and chevoil (“hair”). In English, disheveled describes things other than hair that have a messy or untidy appearance.
