Ses cheveux flottants descendaient jusqu’à sa ceinture, et de chaque côté de son front des nœuds de rubans se mêlaient à des mèches bouclées, qui retombaient le long des joues.

Her flowing hair reached down to her waist, and on either side of her forehead, ribbon bows mingled with curly locks, that fell down along her cheeks.

Her hair flowed down to her belt, and on each side of her forehead ribbon bows mingled with curly strands, which fell down her cheeks.

Thanks.
by marina 2 weeks, 4 days agoHello Marina - can I suggest 'waist' - would be more commonly used and understood in English. Also 'fell down along her cheeks'

'flowing hair' describes the type of hair she has and 'reached down' to her waist describes how far down it 'reaches'.
I would use 'locks' rather than 'strands', because a strand of hair is very thin, whereas a 'lock of hair' consists of many strands.
