/Sounds like "DEH" (as in "debt") + "PEH" (as in "pet") + "lohs" (as in "loan")/

Meaning

Excellent, perfect, top-notch with zero flaws. In Mexico, saying something came out 'de pelos' is the ultimate compliment, it means there's absolutely nothing to improve because everything was flawless.

Examples

The exam went de pelos, I'm sure I'll get a perfect score.

The food was de pelos, give the chef a round of applause.

Regional synonyms

A carefree, relaxed, or shameless person who doesn't get fazed by anything. Depending on context it can be a compliment (chill person) or a criticism (someone with no shame).
