Explanation:

E. Then Bernice winced as Marjorie tossed her own hair over her shoulders and began to twist it slowly into two long blond braids until in her cream-colored negligée she looked like a delicate painting of some Saxon princess. Fascinated, Bernice watched the braids grow. Heavy and luxurious they were, moving under the supple fingers like restive snakes—and to Bernice remained this relic and the curling-iron and a to-morrow full of eyes.

and

A.  After a minute's brisk walk [Bernice] discovered that her left hand still held the two blond braids. She laughed unexpectedly—had to shut her mouth hard to keep from emitting an absolute peal. She was passing Warren's house now, and on the impulse she set down her baggage, and swinging the braids like pieces of rope flung them at the wooden porch, where they landed with a slight thud.

This short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald was written in 1920. It was first published in a newspaper called Saturday Evening Post (May, 1920). He based the story on the letters he had written to his sister giving her some advice on how to look prettier and more attractive to men.

Bernice, the main character, is a very rich girl from Wisconsin. When she goes to spend August at Marjorie's house, her cousin, Marjorie realizes Bernice is hopeless when it comes to socializing, so she decides to turn Bernice into a social girl.

One of Bernice's strategies when she is with boys is to tease them with the idea that she will bob her hair with all them getting to watch.
