Hadith 5061

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنْ كَهْمَسٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَامِلًا بِمِصْرَ ، فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ , فَإِذَا هُوَ شَعِثُ الرَّأْسِ مُشْعَانٌّ ، قَالَ : مَا لِي أَرَاكَ مُشْعَانًّا وَأَنْتَ أَمِيرٌ ؟ قَالَ : " كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْهَانَا عَنِ الْإِرْفَاهِ " ، قُلْنَا : وَمَا الْإِرْفَاهُ ، قَالَ : " التَّرَجُّلُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ " .
´It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Shaqiq said:` "One of the Companions of the Prophet [SAW] was a governor in Egypt, and one of his companions came to him and found him with unkempt, wild hair. He said: 'How come I see you with wild hair when you are a governor?' He said: 'The Prophet of Allah [SAW] forbade us from Al-Irfah,' and we said: 'What is Al-Irfah?' He said: 'To comb your hair every day.'"

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
The phrase "tip-top" has a broad meaning, and combing the hair every day is included within it, not that this is its exclusive meaning.
