but there's too much dialogue here so I'm not coloring it in this post

"This is a terrible idea, Freddie." Catriona pinched the bridge of her nose in frustration. "We should just leave it as is."

"Do you want me to cut your hair or not," said Freddie, brandishing her scissors threateningly.

"I do, I just—" she paused. "Wouldn't it be easier with magic?"

"The hair cutting is the fun part. We'll color it with magic."

Catriona blanched. "You're going to what?"

"Just relax... You'll be fine, I promise." Freddie grinned at Catriona. "Besides, it'll piss Mother off more if you show up to that stupid dinner party tonight rocking a blonde bob."

"You irritate her enough as it is, Freddie." But Catriona found herself warming up to the idea. It would be nice to do something different... She was a bit tired of being called a goody-two shoes constantly. Besides, if Gem "The Idiot" Stuart could rebel, so could she. "Fine. But be careful."

An hour and several brief arguments later, Catriona emerged from the bathroom, hair freshly cut and colored a dirty blonde. She reached up to tug at it, marveling in how light it felt. "No more braids, I guess," she murmured.

Ah well. She liked this better anyway. Maybe next year she'd do something even bigger. Like join the Quidditch team. Or fail an exam. No, better not to. She'd just keep to herself, as usual. That was how she liked it, after all. It would be fine.
