'red-head scarf' certainly isn't an acceptable use of a hyphen, unless the scarf is woven from the hair of a red-haired person.

- scarygliders 12y agoI read that as "A scarf that red haired people wear"
- SideburnsOfDoom 12y agoThat would be a legitimate way to parse that phrase, but it's far more likely that this is a typo for "red head-scarf". There isn't a particular kind of scarf worn by red-heads, AFIAK.
- kefka 12y agoAdmittedly, I thought of the sexual double-entendre. Muff can make a nice scarf... But I digress.
