[ Woe, a video feed of a lavender-haired twink be unto ye. He looks a little put out as he winds a strand of his hair around his finger - it does look to be more wavy and frizzy than would be natural. ]

Greetings, fellow riftfarers. I am Hythlodaeus, a bard... and a crew member of the Raiders of the Lost Arts. [ Why did Hades pick such a long name for the crew! ]

My home lies in a different climate, and the local conditions do not agree with my hair, as you can see... Have any of you advice for taking care of one's hair here? Any treatments you use yourselves, mayhap?

[ Fellow long hair sufferer!!! Hythlodaeus winces in sympathy as he imagines having to card out the tangles when your hair is that long; he already doesn't like it, and his hair is shorter than Jill's. ]

Tying it up is a sound idea. I usually wear it braided, yet even then it's oft in a terrible state in the morning...

May I ask what oils you use?

Someone once also suggested using a silk pillowcase, but I wasn't sure whether that would actually do any thing other than feel extravagant, so I never purchased one.

[That and she can just imagine how much silk to sleep on would cost. Jill is quite the frugal lady.]

Oils of coconut, almond, and olive. Usually just a bit on the ends lest I appear as if I neglected to wash my hair. For special occasions, I will add a few drops of a floral oil such as rose or jasmine, but that is more for scent than to keep it in check.

[ While Jill is frugal, Hythlodaeus is... well, he's used to having a friend who will indulge any of his whims if Hythlodaeus just pesters him enough. Note to self: annoy Hades into buying him a silk pillow.



And Hythlodaeus is also something of a gossip. ]

Oh? What manner of special occasions, if I may ask?

[tilfrosset]

[Clive would indulge her whims too if she had just asked him for a silk pillow. Hell, the man would give her the moon and stars if he could. But just as frugal as she is, Jill is also uncomplicated. A certain number of hard years have made her appreciative of the most basic of basics.]

Dinners, holidays, extravagant galas. Things out of the everyday that require a bit more than simply running a brush through my hair.

[Not that there's been many of those since she got here. Maybe a couple, but none in the last few months.]
