[He took some oil, rubbed it in his hands, and applied it to the ends of her hair.]

It helps moisturize your hair, especially at the ends where it can dry out the most. I learned much about beauty routines from the brothels I grew up in. I would make things for my mother to wear. I can teach you about hair care if you want. You need to look your best if you want people to respect you. A gentleman always looks the part is what mama always said and I find it true.

[His fingers worked through her hair, adding oils and other products in, washing it out, and then conditioning it. He worked slowly and methodically, taking it bit by bit.]

You really are so beautiful Maiden Julietta.

I'd like that. The ladies from the noble families back home always had such beautiful hair. I guess I missed out on that kind of thing being raised to be a soldier.

[ His compliments were making her blush. The way she used to wear her hair was purely practical. It was short enough to stay out of her eyes in low gravity and allowed for ease of putting her helmet on. It took little time to maintain enough to look presentable. Since then she'd let it grow but her lack of experience with handling it had been apparent and if she ever did anything with it she had help. Her guardian certainly hadn't taught her anything to do with that out in the field but now she was starting to become more interested in learning. ]
