Han watches her sit, and then stare, at a loss for what to do next. At this point in Leia's moods, he usually is sorely tempted to storm out.
He even makes a noise, the telltale harrumph in the back of his throat that usually precedes him saying something unimaginably stupid like, 'Fine,' and 'I'm leaving.' Instead, he stomps over to sit by her and starts fiddling with the end of the braid that had fallen earlier, fully intending to put it back to rights for her.
Except for all his skills in repair he was never well versed in braids, and it just starts unraveling between his fingers.
"You know," and he's mumbling at the back of her head now, slowly and methodically smoothing out the crinkled hair as it comes undone from just that one braid, "I only ever landed on Alderaan once."
