What is the origin of the idiom "peach fuzz" and when to use it?
The idiom "peach fuzz" likely comes from the resemblance of the soft, fine hairs on a person's skin, especially the face, to the velvety texture found on the skin of a ripe peach fruit. It is often used informally to describe this delicate, almost invisible hair, particularly in children and young adults.
