All about Beauty

My hair is quite fine, and I don’t have a lot of hair since young. That’s why I got so worried when I started losing hair after child labor. It happened when my babies were about 4 – 6 months old, and it dragged for a few months. You can’t imagine how worried I was seeing the hair I lost while washing my hair. I had to be very gentle with it, and I used hair tonic to promote hair growth.

So hair loss for women can be equally scary like men too. Nonetheless, there are a lot of hair treatments available in the market now, and as long as you can afford it, there should be help.

I permed and colored my hair days ago, and I look very different now. Maybe I had been in straight hair for too long, it feels good for a change.

I hope that I have time to try out a few more looks with this hair, such as something like this:

If only I can have more time in the morning!

Having slightly curly hair increases my hair volume too, and it looks as if I’ve taken some hair loss cures.

In short, I like my new look, but it takes time to maintain a good hair day!

 After months of boring hair, I finally had time to visit the hair salon for a layer cut and new color. It was a last minute decision and I did it during my kids school hour. I don’t feel like waiting anymore as I’m sick of my hair! LOL! I could have waited, but then, since I had some time and I didn’t go to the office, I might as well go to the hair salon, which I visited a few times for a quick cut. It’s easier to me, other than driving to the city on gps and lost in the middle of no way.

Anyway, I think the layer is ok, oh well, my hair is too short for a perm. As for the color, I shall see how it turns out after a wash!

Judy Lin 林葉亭 is one of my favorite stylists because she’s a mother of 2, and she’s almost 40 years old but she looks way younger than her real age. She’s very good at styling her own, by herself, and the results are always so natural and pretty. I bought some of her books but I must say, I am not half as talented as her as I can’t seem to get the hair right. LOL! It would be nice if I have some of her skills, as it’s totally convenient if I know how to fix my own hair. I don’t have to worry about having a bad hair day while traveling, or getting up from sleep number bed and have a messy hair. As long as I know how to fix my hair like her, I will still look great!

You should check out her blog on how she came out with these bridal hair styles, and if you are keen to learn, you can try it on your own. I’m pretty bad at styling my own hair, but I really love her works.

I’m not sure what’s Siao Man’s name in English, but all I know is she’s good at hair. She’s a famous hairdresser in Taiwan, and she charges a lot for a hair cut!

The book comes with a free hair resistant band, mmm….or is there another name for it? I’ve been looking for one for some time, and I’m so glad that it came free with the book!

I’m in a state when I’m so bored with my shoulder length hair as I’m reluctant to color it. I want to keep it long but it takes so long to grow an inch! Let’s see how I can learn from this book to make my hair look better and healthier.

I shall bring it along when I’m going for a trip later. No, I’m not going for Argentina travel, but just out from the chaotic Bangkok city.

I removed my hair extension some days ago, and I feel like I need a new look. My hair is off shoulder now, but it’s rather plain. It’s been such a long time since I have shoulder length hair, and it’s not colored. Normally, I will go for a style, but this time, I think I look like silai. LOL!

I’m actually quite tempted to get a hair cut but once I think of how long will it take to keep my hair long again, I dare not step my foot into the hair salons. Having short hair is nice, especially bob cut. But then, I had bob cut for a year already, before getting hair extension. I really want to have new look, without changing the length of my hair. I wonder if it’s possible…

 I love my hair extension but lately, some of my hair strands have fallen off but they were stuck in the glue of the hair strand extension. It looks like I’m having a serious dandruff problem but it’s not dandruff! I need someone to help me to cut them off, but hubby is too busy to do so. Sigh…If only I can do this on my own!

All I need is just a pair of scissors and a helper as I can’t see them at the back of my head. I don’t want to remove the hair extension yet as it’s pretty costly to remove them. I admit that it’s not convenient to have hair extension, but I’m not desperate to cut them off with a box cutter yet. LOL!

I just need some help to maintain the look…

If you can read Chinese, get a copy of the latest With magazine. It’s a magazine translated from Japanese, so if you can read Japanese, just get one too. I seldom care much about my hair until I have this short haircut now. Why? It’s because a lot of people told me that I looked younger and slimmed with it. When I had long curly hair, I looked more mature, and thus, added to my age. But now, I think I look energetic and younger with bob cut. However, if you don’t want to cut your hair, just use the tips written on With magazine. You can easily take away 3kg from yourself if you do your hair well. Of course, by illusion ok?

I guess it’s great to know that we can just use our hair to fool the world without worrying much about weight loss. Besides that, not everyone can easily slim down on their faces even with the help of facial slimming products. So, if our hair can help, why not pick up the skills and tips of doing it ourselves?

I have been keeping my hair for more than 2 years. It’s curly most of the time as I would perm it every 6 months. While most ladies think that permed hair is very hard to be managed, I have the different opinion. You just need to apply some hair styling products on it after washing your hair and that’s it. I don’t even blow mine. It’s a bliss to me as I don’t have to comb it. LOL!

But if you want your hair to look romantically curly, you might need to have a hair curler at home. I have always thought of getting one but I know that I won’t do it by myself. I’m too lazy lah! Just get one of those battery operated hair curlers like the Japanese girls if you want your hair to stay in that way all day long or while traveling.

But I don’t have one, so I always ask my hairdresser to curl it for me a day before I travel. At my hair treatment yesterday, I told my hairdresser that I would like to have a bob cut. I might not look nice, but I’m willing to take the risk. She asked me to think about it as I won’t have curly hairstyle as I am having now, and it might be boring looking the same with a bob cut. I have a week to think about this, and I haven’t make up my mind. Hubby said just go ahead if I want to get a haircut. It’s not like I can attract any hot hunk as he might be more interested in Dodge Charger accessory than looking at me. *angry* So, short or curly?

Tell me where to get this in Malaysia or is it only available online?

My hair is dry and brittle due to frequent perming but the Alterna Caviar Anti-Aging Seasilk® Moisture Shampoo claimed that it can help to energize the hair and repair the damage from chemical and natural process. Besides, it has caviar extracts in it! I am so hooked up with caviar lately. LOL!

I really don’t have time for hair treatment frequently, so I’m looking for other products than Keratase. Is Alterna good?
