Cleaners with messy hairstyles (4)
I believe the answer is:
mops
This clue could be a double definition.
'cleaners' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'messy hairstyles' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mops that I've seen before include "grimaces" , "Swabs, wipes up" , "They're used to clean floors" .)
