Arabic term or phrase: كيفما تأتّى

Hi everyone,

This is from a Palestinian text and it's talking about a woman's hair.

لكنك اكتفيت بالدبابيس المعدنية السوداء ترفعين بها خصلات شعرك كيفما تأتّى، فلا تسمحين لخصلة متمرّدة بأن تعوق عينك ...

Does it mean but with metal black clips you'd tie up your hair however it fell/in whichever way?

Thank you!
