Rebonded Hair of Mine
Today, on the May 12th I finally rebonded my hair. Why the word "Finally"? Cos I simply cannot stand the fact that I have to sit like 5 hours to do the damn hair, and end up looking so weird I had to hide my face from the public. But, it does provide a good effect after the treatment when my hair grows out its not that hopelessly "pong" till my frens can call me lion king. 6 months ago, after my sem 5 exams, i wanted to rebond, but decide not to do it cos i felt when FYP starts I'll probably wanna tie my hair up to get that irritating hair off my face and my vision will be clearer. Clearer vision allows you to think better I supposed. LOL.
After sem 6 results, I decided to go for it, but I realised I nid to study SAT and I was starting to like the long long long hair of mine that I can't bear to cut it. Anyways, I decided I hated it more than I liked it. So yeah, I did cut it.
I don't know how to rate their service, I think they are okay, they did what they are supposed to do, and I only can judge them based on how long my hair can tahan the straightness.
All I wanted to blog about was what I've observed at the hairstyling salon, I'm not going to name the company here, due to infringing their rights or something (
aint gonna get in trouble wif law i tell ya)
Most hairstylists are retired-ah-bengs/ah lians. I gathered that most of them wear heels at work (gee aren't they afraid of tripping over the hair they cut?), they wear heavy makeup and some even had tattoos on the wrists, legs, back, or even hip. And I overheard conversations like "eh, xx tell me tt u diao her ah, can u dun look so diao anot, ltr pple nt happi den u noe". I never knew there's inner conflicts by diao-ing in the hair salon sia. Note: not onli hairstylist lidat hor, even their ka kia like those shampoo girl oso lidat 1.
Besides that, I feel that a hair salon behaves like a clinic. Or even hospital. While I was doing my rebonding, when the treatment time is up and required a wash, my hairstylist was very particular about the texture of my hair on how soft it is and she checked so thoroughly, u'll probably imagine ur gynaecologist is checking ur public regions for STDs. :P
Later, I had hollywood treatment whereby 2 shampoo kia (why i use kia becos 1 guy 1 girl) they blow dry my hair together. Wahaha feels like I so big shot got 2 pple help me do lidat. then, later when they pull my hair straight with those irons oso got 2 pple pulling. I can tell u, imagine how it feels like 2 nurses hovering under my legs trying to check if my baby is coming out and how many centimetres dilated i am becos i can start pushing the baby out lidat. hahaha. pain okay! the way they pull and tug all the tangles of my hair.. woosh.
When my alarm sounded to indicate the treatment of the hair is done and required a wash, somebody will tell the hairstylist "Number 6 is done". As I had a number on the mirror at the top right hand side corner, don't u feel its like we have no identity just like queuing outside the clinic before the doc presses for the number next to be served? hiak hiak.
Hospital --> high class clinic
Dentist --> Middle class clinic
Salon --> Low class clinic
Anyone can disagree with me.
I don't care if you do. It's just wad i perceive after sitting for 4 hours. yes, my hair is short and straight after 240 mins.
Before the damn long hair was treated, Man i do missed it lots now i've freaking short hair now lah argh argh arghhhh....
After the damn arduous and long way to try and make the hair better, it seemed worse. but i noe it will get better when its longer! humph. pardon my cam ah, its spoilt after taking this pic. Eh the pic looks creepy lah i din dye my hair blue ok!!
