Morphology
The meaning 'a particular way hair is cut or arranged' is directly and compositionally derived from 'hair' (the strands on the head) and 'style' (a manner or fashion). This straightforward noun + noun composition is common across languages and follows transparent semantic combination, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Hair style combines hair and style, where style means a particular way of doing or arranging something, for example 'to cut or shape' hair. This comes from the simple, literal idea of arranging hair into a certain look, so hair style today means the way someone's hair is cut or worn.
