Hair stiffener (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gel

'hair stiffener' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gel that I've seen before include "It may be applied to locks" , "Hair-dressing preparation" , "Colloid" , "Upstage" , "Hair styling substance" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
