Micelles are lipid molecules that arrange themselves in a spherical form in aqueous solutions. The formation of a micelle is a response to the amphipathic nature of fatty acids, meaning that they contain both hydrophilic regions (polar head groups) as well as hydrophobic regions (the long hydrophobic chain).

Hey !!
There are some substances such as soap which at low concentration behave as normal electrolytes, but at higher concentration exhibit collidal behaviour due to the formation of aggregates. The aggregates particles thus formed are known as micelles or associated colloids.
Hope it helps you !!
