Sample text:

 

The child fought like a demon, the wild hair whipping round her head as she struggled against them, but at last they got her in the chair and Marlene, still holding onto the girl with one hand, reached out and took her scissors from the shelf.

The child screamed as Marlene grabbed a substantial lock of the hair. Under her hand, the hair writhed. Marlene was so surprised she almost dropped the scissors. But she was made of sterner stuff. “Right,” she said, grasping the hair more firmly in her left hand and cutting across with her right.

In her need to restrain the thick lock of hair, she cut blindly, slashing as quickly as she could. The heavy lock fell to the floor, leaving the short hair twitching in the breeze of its passage.  The woman gasped, the child wailed.

Pressing her lips together, Marlene grasped another hank of hair. As she cut, another lock snaked out and gripped her wrist. She gave a little cry of fear and disgust and slashed at it with the scissors. It fell to the floor but yet another lock snapped round her scissor hand and, as she struggled to pull out the scissors with her left hand, another one slapped her face and began to curl around her neck. “Oh my God!” she shrieked. The hair tightened around her throat. Marlene looked up to see Amanda’s mother, a look of sheer terror on her face, just staring back, horror-stricken. “The scissors, Get the scissors,” Marlene whispered.
