Eliza practiced on her own hair for the meantime, which wasn't such a bother to her. She might have been a little nervous about someone messing with her hair anyway, had she found a partner. Then again...it might be fun to get to play with someone else's hair, but oh well. Maybe I'll get someone later. Her hair really didn't have much style to it in the first place, so she figured she couldn't go too wrong.
She grabbed a section of hair and thought about how long she wanted it. Let's see...if it's already fairly long...a bit past my collar bone anyway, maybe I'll go for chest level. She waved her wand at her hair and said the spell.
"Cresco Capillus!" She kept waving her hand, watching her honeyed strands grow longer and longer. She was so mesmerized by them getting longer and longer that she forgot to stop. Once she realized it, she stopped her wand movement at once. Woops! She had let it grow all the way to her waist. And now that she took a closer look, she had only grown that one section. Weird. I must've been concentrating too hard on the piece I had looked at. She wound her long tress of hair around her finger, and hand, and wrist. This is pretty neat! She'd always liked how the long princess hair looked in picture books and movies. Now she could have it herself if she wanted. Okay, so...maybe I'll just cut this and start over? She looked around to see if anyone else was using scissors. Unsure, she walked over to a barber seat and grabbed a pair anyway. She held them up to her hair and grinned as she snipped it off. Well that was fun! She could get used to growing her hair out as she pleased and cutting it when she was bored of it. |
