A Minor Hair Incident

Harry was woken early the next morning as someone started to shake him. When he finally opened his eyes he saw Lavender hovering above him and telling him to get up. He drowsily got up and saw that his roommates were already up, and they looked grumpy. He also saw Ginny, Hermione, Lavender, Parvarti and surprisingly Luna, standing next to Ron's bed with various items in their hands.

Ginny suddenly piped up, "Now that you're up, we can begin our next lesson in being a girl- fixing your hair!"

"In order to look like girls, I am going to place a hair growth charm on you so you have longer hair that we can work with." Hermione instructed them as she started to charm Dean's hair longer. After Hermione had finished with the hair growth charms she helped the other girls start to put the items they were carrying on a dresser.

"Alright, we are going to show you how to style your hair so that next weekend we don't have to help you get ready." Parvarti told them as she sat next to Neville and started to explain the items on the dresser. Harry saw Lavender come towards him with some bottles and a handheld mirror.

"Harry, I 'm going to show you how to style your hair." She proceeded to show him the steps of a complicated hairstyle. He tried to do it himself but the he could reach behind his head. He finally managed to twist a section of hair the perfect way before he heard Ron scream. He looked up and saw that Ron's hair had gone into tight ringlets, and was purple.

Harry saw Ron tentatively touch the ringlets on his head and whisper in a trembling voice, "My… my hair, Luna what did you do to my hair? Its purple!"

"Oh Ronald I'm so sorry, I used the wrong gel, that's a color changing gel, not an anti-frizz gel. Don't worry, after three washes it will come out." Luna told him as she took him into the bathroom to wash his hair.

"Please don't do that to me Parvarti." Neville asked her as she applied something to his hair. Harry was about to turn away when he saw Neville's hair stand straight up as if it had been scared.

"Lavender, what happened to Neville's hair?" Harry asked, half scared of the answer.

"Oh no, the poor thing his hair has gone static." Hearing Lavender's statement Neville started to panic and he asked, "static! What does that mean?"

"Don't worry, a little gel can fix anything." Parvarti told him soothingly.

Starting to instruct Harry again Lavender told him, "Okay Harry now that your hair is twisted properly, you spray it with hair spray." She handed him a bottle and he pushed down on the top of it. However he forgot to aim the bottle and it sprayed all over his face, making him drop the bottle and start to cough. He felt himself tear up and he couldn't stop coughing. After a couple of minutes the coughing subsided and he looked up to see his friends leaning over him.

"Yea, I'm okay," he told them. "Hang on Dean, what did Hermione do to your hair?" he asked as he saw that Dean's hair had turned into dreadlocks-very long dreadlocks. He had two dreadlocks at both sides of his faced pinned back.

"Do you like it? I love it. Hermione is one smart witch." Dean exclaimed as he helped Harry up. Harry saw that Hermione was looking distinctly pleased, as if she had gotten a perfect test score.

"Wow, Hermione, how did you do that?" Harry asked in amazement.

"Well I was in the library last night and there was this book laying on the table. I looked at it and it was a book on hair charms. I started to read it and it explained how to charm dreadlocks and thought that Dean would like it."

"I didn't know the library had books on hair charms." Lavender said quite interested. Hermione was about to reply but Ginny yelling out "TA-DA!" interrupted her. Harry turned and got the shock of his life. Seamus had long, wavy, blonde hair. He looked like a hair model or something. Harry started to get worried because Dean had dreadlocks, Ron had washed out the purple dye, Seamus had good hair-for a girl- and even Neville managed to control his static hair.

"Lavender, can we please finish." Harry asked anxiously. Lavender tutted but finished helping him with the hairstyle. After another ten minutes Harry finally managed to finish his hair do. However there were many more close calls with inhaling hair spray. The girls finally left the boys to their own devices after many hours of tedious work. They went to their dormitories to gossip about their own costumes for the ball.
