choppy

Logically despuntar should just mean to take the ends off or trim, but I have checked out photos of 'pelo despuntado' and compared them with similar cuts in English and it seems to refer to 'choppy cuts'

Denoting or relating to a hairstyle in which layers and sections of hair are cut at different lengths:
a choppy bob
