A middle-aged woman with dark hair in a heavy plait looked out at her, through her, with eyes sleep reddened .

Jewelled, too, were her heavy plaits of hair, jewelled the rose-silk garments that she wore, the girdle at her waist, her naked, ivory arms and even the slippers on her feet.

She took a comb of bamboo from the shelf above the bed, seated herself on the doorstep, and began to undo the long and heavy plait of her hair.

He disengaged his hand, used it to lift the heavy plait aside, and gently massaged the nape of her neck.

Her hair hung down her back in three heavy plaits, with a stem of grain from last year's harvest twisted through each.

Her grey hair flecked with dandruff had been combed upward in a single heavy plait fixed to the crown of her head with a plastic white comb, not particularly clean.

Malcolm's wife tossed the heavy plait of hair over her shoulder and stood up.

I spun around and shot upwards again, until I saw her coming towards me, her garments swirling about her, her heavy plaits lifted more gently by the wind.

One, a lovely blonde, her heavy plait of golden hair swinging just above the ground, started to step off the raised floor and stopped, shrieking, backing fearfully toward the scant comfort of her peers.

Use watched the old woman covertly, from under thick blonde lashes that matched her heavy plait.
