Cepillo

A Volkswagen Beetle. This car model became popular starting in the 1960s (the name literally means brush, referring to the vehicle's rounded shape).

Tururú

A quick, messy hairstyle for when there is no time to get ready, consisting of a ponytail where the rest of the hair is loosely pinned up or tied back. (In the Dominican Republic, where professional salon styling is a very common part of the beauty culture, this is the standard low-effort alternative).

I am going out tonight and do not have time to go to the salon, so I am just going to do a tururú.
