Almost home and my NEW hair!
Hi guys! So I'm waiting for my 3rd and final flight! Then I will be home :D I've been in the Philippines for these past 2 weeks and I'm so happy I got to see my family. It was fun but long xD I missed a few days of school too which I'm not too happy about :/I was in Manila the same time as Airirin! But we weren't able to meet up due to our busy schedules :/ one day though!
While in Manila, I went to Park Jun's Beauty Lab in Glorietta mall to get my hair done! It's a Korean beauty salon :3 I had looked it up because I discovered volume rebonding which is exactly like a rebond but not as flat.
On a side note, they were playing live performances of SNSD and SHINee on the tv in the lobby xD and while they were doing my hair, they were playing SNSD and an IU song :D
Anyway, I wanted the volume rebond, but the Korean hairstylist (who was so nice and stylish :3) suggested I get the digital perm, which has a volume rebond on the first half of your hair and natural curls on the bottom. I've always admired this hairstyle on Japanese and Korean girls, and I've even been sporting the style recently with my own curlers. But it would be nice to have them without having to sleep in curlers and have the frizzy ends that usually result~ so I got it :3
It took about 5 hours and the straightening process (where they tediously flat iron the top portion of my hair) kinda hurt for me, but it looked nice :)
Overall she and her assistant did a wonderful job and was patient, redoing the curls over and over when something didn't look right to her. They were also all very nice :)
Here's my hair before (two years after my last straight rebond):
Looks awful yes? Bleh~ plus the ends were dry so she cut them!
Here's right after the treatment. The curls are tight for now but they'll become more natural later. There's also flash so it looks weird xD:
Like all rebonds and stuff, I wasn't allowed to wash my hair for 2 days. I always hate that cause my hair gets oily and bleh, but this time it looked decent even after the 2 days. Not sure if that was just in my case though :p anyway, after the first shampoo, it became less curly and more natural: the way it's supposed to. It looks nice :) you're supposed to use products after the shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask, but I didn't have a hair mask or any products at the time. It still looked nice though!
I don't have any pics of the current look right now, but I'll take one later!
This is my first time with permed curly hair, so now I have to treat it differently . For one, I can't brush my hair, or at least the curls. I can brush the straight top half but.. I'll miss brushing my hair xD
Well yeah, that's my experience with my digital perm!
Any questions about this or any other topic, please ask on my formspring :D I always love answering questions!
Thanks for reading! Bai :3
