Quick Update



And so, happy birthday singapore. though im late. but then again........ oh nevermind

quick update on my boring and mundane life. Ok i went to cut my hair, so im gonna give a quick low-blow on the salon which i went. thinking that it is time i left kimage, i was fascinated with the cuts at Shunji Matsuo. Many have given good reviews on them, and like the name, they have professional and authentic japanese hairstylists. looking at their website, i was awed with the pictures, though of course these pictures have to be good, but it really is good. i also realised that there's only one Shunji Matsuo while the rest are named ICON, which i presumed must have been their franchise outlets

little did i know what was in stored for me

me and <3 went to ICON, at the Isetan at Wisma Atria and stepped into a fancy looking salon. so i sat down and waited for my stylist. first impression of him was that he didnt seem like one. so yes besides telling me the fact which i already know, that my hair is no straight, he went to give me a sloppy wash and left me sitting on the chair will my hair dripping wet, not bothering to leave the towel with me while he picked up a phonecall. so he came back, not drying my hair, and started to cut it, starting from my nape, which i hate, thinking that most unprofessional stylists do that.

despite telling him that i want to cut my hair short, he advised me to thin it instead, and even with that he couldnt do it well. he kept re-clipping my hair because maybe he just doesnt know what to do with my hair. then we proceeded to having small talk which was pretty laughable but i shall not mention. so the bill came up to a $37, almost the same as Kimage, but heck, there's a vast difference in skill.

I accompanied <3 to cut her hair at Chapter 2, and boy was the professionalism so much higher over there. ok so point to note, cut at SHUNJI MATSUO and not ICON. it costs $60+ but i bet its better than being cheated for half the price.

along the way, we came to this busstop which amused me. it had the estimated arrival time of the buses and even a map of the routes which each of the bus services goes to. pretty interesting. hope singapore can implement it nation-wide.





and on yesterday, we went to study at macdonalds:

i bought Clear Shampoo for hairfall control just now at Shop n Save, mainly because im afraid im losing hair. but strangely, whilst reading the instructions behind, i saw this and i decided to take a photo of it. it's hilarious!
