[ Reynir appears to be completely comfortable with a total stranger messing with his hair; there's no tension in him and his voice is light and cheerful as he answers: ]
Nope! It took a really long time to grow it out this long. It was short when I was a kid. You're doing really great!
[ That last part he says, peering over his shoulder as best as he can without moving his head too much and making it harder. The braid is nowhere near as sleek or even as it was before, but it's a braid! It's happening! ]
What about you - your hair is dyed that color, right? Was it like that before you arrived here, or did you do it at the spa.
[ Reynir had been gullible enough that he believed Genji's green hair just grew that way, but he'd learned better! He's not stupid, after all, just ignorant about some things. Which means that, when he knows something, like that people can dye their hair strange colors at the spa, he's eager to demonstrate that. ]
There are many different styles of braiding you can do to your hair once you've got a little bit of practice. Most of them are way too elaborate for every day but it's a good skill to have. I practiced like you're doing on my sisters for lots of years and eventually I was the one they came to when there was a fancy occasion and they needed their hair done, not our mom, which I think annoyed her a little until she realized she could get me to do her hair, too, and then she didn't really mind so much.
