[He continues to work, only a little surprised by the length of her hair. He expected it would be longer than it appeared due to the styling, but not so long. And with the pins and everything... Even if it's something she's used to and could be done quickly from routine practice, it's still an effort. He feels a little more guilt from ruining it from his little prank.
But that's just more reason for him to try and mend it. He's having to draw from old memories, but he manages and continues to take care and murmuring apologies if he accidentally tugs a little too hard. It obviously won't be as good as it was originally, but he's able to repin and rebound the hair so it's gathered back into a high ponytail. It might also be a little more snug than before, but not uncomfortably so.
He tilts his head this way and that, smoothing out some loose strands before he finally feels satisfied and steps back—completely oblivious to Adelle's actions due to how focused he had been (and probably still would be even if he wasn't).]
...I think I got it. It's not as good as it was before but it should do for now.
