A LOT OF ME IN THIS POST....... A LITTLE BIMBOIC TOO...LOL!
This post is a lot about me.....
haha...... Let's start with
"Me Moving On"....... yes....to this new place on 3rd August..... looking forward to the smell and clean toilets of this newly constructed building plus the beautiful cross......... Nice ya?
Went shopping for Jo's toys on Sunday at
Toa Payoh (See his blog for more!). Did some window shopping too. Gil got
ME a bottle of Small Pea Body Spray as an advanced birthday present. She bought a Cucumber Melon
spray for herself. I luv the sweet smelling fragrance.
Thks Gil!
We had dinner at our current fave eatery in
Toa Payoh. Tried their Special Seafood Toast..... nothing special at all...... but their chicken was still as good..... like the curry too!
I realized that I have quite a number of
facial products...... and I am still adding on more....... maybe a mask and a night cream might just complete my collection....... the older you get (turning 31 soon), the more you need to take care of your skin plus my skin is not exactly very healthy! As you can tell, I am
a great fan of Avene products cos they are made for sensitive skin..... only problem is that they are rather pricey! Recently bought a
Silkpro blackhead remover....been searching for one that suit my vulnerable skin and found this
exfoliator that can soothe sensitive skin.....yeah....not cheap too....50ml for $21 plus.
Loreal Lip & Eye makeup remover is fantastic too...... bought this yesterday........ cheap and good...... perfect for removing waterproof makeup!
Btw, these are just for my face, you haven't seen my hair and body care products yet....
keke!
I rebonded my hair for the 10th time yesterday. Been on a hunt for a reasonably priced and good salon cos my previous salon has increased their prices......$350 for
rebonding......crazy or what..... are you trying to rip me! I found out that
rebonding prices have increased even
neighbourhood salon are charging $250. Finally found this salon in
Toa Payoh that is well furnished, clean and more affordable ($200 nett). I
was quite skeptical at
first but seeing that they used
Loreal products brought some relief.
Before I had my hair done, I went for my favourite
Hot Chocolate at Delifrance....... just the right amount of chocolate and sugar for me..... it comes with a chocolate chip and coffee cookie. I couldn't finished it cos it was a pretty big cup. It was nice to have a drink peacefully..... a good 15 minutes break for me.
Back to the salon. I must say that this is one of the best hair service I ever received compared to all those biggies (
JY, KM,
JZ....etc) ....... let me explain my verdict:
1. They were
friendly but not fake....... you know how some people can be too friendly!
2. The salon is clean and well furnished.
3. I was told to put on a canvas robe before my hairdo and she also covered me with a big canvas sheet before doing my hair. My clothes was clean and dry right till the end. I was also served water with lemon and also a tray of snacks. They even asked if I wanted tea,
coffee, green tea or
milo! Very thoughtful right?
4. The toilet is clean and nice smelling. I didn't even know that behind the cupboard-like door was a pantry and toilet!
5. The hairdresser will tell you what she put on your hair and what it does..... it was the first time I was ever introduced to the chemicals that were placed on my head! So comforting to know that they are using good products.
6. No hard selling of hair products...... something which I hated at
JY salon. My hairdresser Vivien even gave me some tips on hair care. She is a very "devoted" hairdresser....refused to have her lunch until my hair is done at 6pm! I kept asking her to eat but she said she wanted to make sure her job is done before she can settle down for a meal.
7. There are lots of good magazines to read..... I found 女人我最大 magazine on the shelf! Had a great time reading them.
8. They played nice soothing music and had me humming away...... "I see your true colours.... blah blah....
9. At the end of the session, a warm towel was placed on my neck to release pressure and cleaned up whatever residue that was left behind...... very considerate to look into such details.
10. Most importantly, my hair look great! It's not easy to
achieve good
rebonding results on hair that has been damaged by
rebonding chemicals 9 times!
Btw, the shop is called "
Cabello Casa".... with a name like this, you wouldn't really go wrong!
At the salon:
Here's me flaunting my new hair do with Tommy.......
Some pics of food before I end.....
Jo & I...pai seh to take too many pics of myself so got my son to pose with me....keke!
Haha...not forgetting myself too!
My mom bought this lovely fruit and rose hips tea for an after dinner treat....refreshing!
