Back to Curls for the Summer

Hey dears!

I'm back to curls! Got my hair permed last weekend! Yay!


I love it when my hair is curly because I don't have to worry about what my hair looks like when I'm outside. Even if it's windy, my hair would still look great (errr... or at least decent)!

This is what my natural hair looks like (well, not entirely natural because my hair is colored).

It's straight at the top and wavy from the middle to the ends and it's quite thin.

I find my hair too... sad-looking. Haha! It doesn't have much volume and it gets oily easily so by the end of the day it looks so greasy and flat.

Getting my hair permed is one of my solutions. It makes my hair look thicker and livelier. And so last weekend, I went to Azta Salon at SM San Lazaro and spent an afternoon under the care of our trusted stylist, Ms. Rich Abella. Liz and I usually go to her for haircuts. She does my sister's hair too when she's in the Philippines and Ms. Rich has also permed my hair once. :)

After a five hours in the salon, this is what my hair looked like:

Ms. Rich added some hair treatment just because she's so nice! Thank you so much!
I told her about my permed hair a few months back that I just had to cut off because it was super dry from the previous perm and all the hair coloring. The perm's curls looked great but the dryness annoyed me a lot that I chopped them off after only 4 months. I waited 'til my hair grew longer before I get it re-curled again.

After 2 days, I was allowed to wash my hair and it looked like this:
My hair was not completely dry yet on the pic because I took some minutes after taking a shower (I was off to work). My curls are bigger than in previous photo which I prefer and if you have permed your hair before, you probably know that the curls would look better as time goes. :D


Left pic: my hair without products (mousse or curl enhancing products)
Right pic: With product


I'm so happy that my hair is curly again! And it's not as dry anymore. It still needs some repairing especially the ends but I'll just wait til it grows a little longer then have it cut 2 inches off. I'll also apply some hair treatment every now and then. :)

I think my hair is great for the summer because I'm going on various trips. I don't have to check if my hair is too messy (vain me wants great pics) so I'll just focus on having fun! Yayy!

So do you prefer having straight, wavy, or curly hair? Do you get your hair permed? Rebonded?


Cheers,
DAWN

Update : My Korean City Hair Style By L'Oreal Professionnel and Tony and Jackey

Hello dears!

Would just like to give you an update on the state of my hair after washing. Last Thursday, I had my hair permed at Tony and Jackey using L'Oreal Professionnel X-Tenso Moisturist.

This is what my hair looked like after the perm:

 This was blow-dried and styled so I was really curious to know if my hair would still look the same after I wash it. I was instructed not to wash my hair for a day.

Anyway, here are pictures of my hair now:

I let it dry naturally and followed the instructions such as only combing it during my shower, while it's still dripping wet, and scrunch it after towel-drying it.

My hair is surprisingly shiny and looks more moisturized than the day I got it permed. The curls are still beautiful. I am honestly more than satisfied. I love my hair! It still needs some good conditioning though. :P

Excuse my makeup in the photos. I was experimenting with eyeliners. Haha! I was even wearing my evening daster on those photos that's why I needed to crop the pics big time. :P

Anyway, I'm very thankful that I got the privilege of getting this service. Thank you very much L'Oreal Professionnel and Tony and Jackey for this!

And if you are interested in availing the services and in getting a Korean City Style as well, here are the three styles again:

With the Korean invasion hitting Philippine shores, it has been inevitable for Filipinos to dabble into anything Korean – from music, fashion, beauty, and whatnot.  As far as beauty is concerned, Filipinos, now more than ever, aspire to pull off how Korean women effortlessly carry distinct hairstyles that showcase luscious curls or fringes, which are equally stylish and edgy, but most importantly healthy and shiny.
With the Korean hair phenomenon amongst us, L’Oreal Professionnel presents the Korean City Style Collection. Inspired by Korea’s top three culturally influential districts, this new collection offers a new set of perms aimed to transform ordinary-looking hair to the much-celebrated Korean tresses. 

Busan Style – An artsy, romantic, and Bohemian vibe Bubble Perm look inspired by the cultural and artistic city of Busan 
(Php 2,800)

Hong Dae Style – a youthful and cute pop perm look inspired by the trendy and funky vibe of Hong Dae. Each trendy style is reflective of the district that has its own distinctive style, from clothes to hair to attitude that would best suit any type of Filipina and her personality.
(Php 2,800)

Gangnam Style- a glamour chic see-through glam perm look that can easily blend into the trendy parts of the city that is inspired by the richest district in Seoul
(Php 8,000)
