Who run the world? "Curls!"

" Because it's inhumane,
to disregard your mane. "

myself.

I am a creature of habit and usually not the biggest fan of change. My annual visits to the salon can be numbered on one hand (maybe even half of one hand), and I never do anything drastic. However, my hair's flatness had been me getting on my nerves way more than usual upon returning from Melbourne and I decided it was finally time to take matter into my own hands; or the hands of Eugene (Gene's Work Hair Studio)

​First and only criteria however: 
I ain't changing my hair colour no more!

I like dark hair and I am an avid believer of looking as close to natural as possible. I've stayed away from eyelash extensions for the very same reason, not because I think it looks bad (it looks great on so many people); Just feel like it doesn't sit with me y'know
. 

THE JAPANESE PERM

I am twirling my hair as I write this and it's nice seeing how bouncy the ends of my hair are compared to it's flatter days. Love the way the curls looks and I don't find it particularly drying or damaging (but of course it is a little dryer than usual). Best way to describe it is like a "digital perm" once it loosens up a little, more movement, less maggie-noodle-like.

However, I'd suggest you bring a book or a laptop (or a purpose in life) because this is going to be long. LONG! Like 5 hours long, like I-could-go-to-KL-and-back-and-have-an-hour-to-have- coffee kind of long. It's worth it in the end, for good hair.

The main thing I learnt from Eugene is that when it comes to the perm, the hair cut is probably the most important and  of course the condition of your hair. Healthier hair means a nicer curl, so I had to get all my split ends trimmed off and my hair re-layered for shape. PLUS, it's really important to always go in from trims or treatments to maintain your hair's health. I feel like everyone  knows that but very few people actually do it, MYSELF INCLUDED! So this year I've made a mini resolution to take better care of my hair, since I already have so little of it. 

On a separate note, I have so much product to try for my face, there's this new cushion CC cream from The Face Shop that I got and I'm dying to try out. Just haven't had the right occasion yet. Will keep y'all updated in the next post.
