I'm reading the story "Gift of Magi" by O Henry where a beautiful woman sold her precious hair to buy her husband a Christmas gift.
I read a sentence there that says "so now her beautiful hair fell about her, shining like a brown water fall"
The context is that she pull down her hair and let is fall to its full length and now she is looking herself at a mirror.
But I'm not sure what exactly the sentence, especially that "feel about her" part means.
Could anyone help me out?
Thank you!
