Last week Friday I got a much needed hair cut from Sylda at KLS. I was starting look like cave-girl. Sylda has been doing my hair for almost three years - she did all my hair for my pre-wedding ceremonies (2009). I posted some pics of that as well. She made all those months trawling through Asiana Wedding worth it.
Any-hoo , I had the fab haircut but my hair was sooooo boring (being it's normal brown self - I haven't coloured it for yonks) and I wanted to inject some fun into it. I also am extremely low-maintenance in terms of hair - wash and go- even though I have a fantastic hair dryer, a GHD and loads of high-end hair products. I just don't use them (I'm not being lazy- I don't seem to be great with doing my own hair).To inject some fun into my hair I'd been thinking of doing some undercolour/Peek-a-boo highlights. I had them done ages ago when I was in 5th year Medschool but the colourist completely misunderstood me ( I had a picture!) and made me completely blonde. I knew Sylda could do it and I explained it to her and she knew excatly what I wanted (she showed me a pic). I made an appointment for the next Monday and voila! Peek-a-boo. I"m still getting used to it and can't decide if it looks trashy or not but it's very well done. I also had one of their awsome K-Pak Joico treatments (a 4 step process including a great head massage from Kylie. Busi is also cool and fun - really great people ). Initially I was also like WTH is Joico ? (http://joico.com/)
Anyway , I've had two Joico treatments there already and it's great - hello super-soft hair! It is a great product - here's to trying out something different!
I've decided that I might like to try something different every month - why not!

The Style Area. They really look after you at KLS. Also besides the usually Cappuccinos and Juice, there are wines, teas and champagne (or MCC) |
Colour and Brazilians. Didn't take a pic of the snazz reception but it is snazz. |

Me, as the Asian Bloggers put it, "camwhoring". She coloured my hair a deep chocolate brown which took a bit to get used to because my real hair colour is lighter than that |

Not sure if this is meant to be artsy but he shouted at me for moving |
One of my pre-wedding ceremonies |
Yip real flowers |
Can you tell there is a giant roller in my hair. I was trying to go for the whole "OM Shanti OM - 60s-Bollywood movie look" Miracle by Sylda |
Hair as high it can go. (with the Bestie) |
You see the little jewel thing going down my path - I made it. My Necklace is dying from all the extra beads and Swarovskis I've added. Amisha is helping me out. |
The whole red thing was my own doing. Stupid thing to try the week of your wedding |
When else do you get to wear a tiara- another pre wedding ceremony |
Loving these curls and the cut Sylda did- this is about 3 months after the wedding |
A cool hair cut that Sylda did. I did the whole red thing myself after the whole curly hair-ness |
MMMmmmmm - I think I want to do this |
What I'm going for Or maybe this |
Or
Maybe this- this is nice:
Update : So we decided it was too much of a "skanky look" and I'm not really comfortable with it so
I'm going to try and get my real hair colour back .It was very well done but I can't deal with the contrast.
Such a pity you changed it, I actually thought it looked really cool :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Dominique , I actaully didn't get around to changing it and thank goodness it's an undercolour so it's super low maintenance
