I just
finished reading through the Game of Thrones- series and am now eagerly awaiting
the winds of winter.
Awesome
books!
But, the
hair nerd in me can’t help but notice that George R. R. Martin is a real
curl-abuser.
So many
descriptions of curly hair being brushed!
And I
cringe every single time.
Especially
when he writes how curls are being “brushed until they shine”.
Uhm, nope.
Curls do not work that way!
Haha definitely, this is a sentence that is used too much, this "she brushed her hair until they shone like ... followed by a comparison with something like a precious stone of metal... But our dear George has certainly not studied how curly hair works I guess :p But he seems to like curls..
ReplyDeleteOh, definitely! I do think every single detailed description of hair I found in the books was about curls :)
DeleteHoly crap what an amazing thread! Thank you so much for sharing it!!
