Album and Pretty Hair

Two weekends ago, Igemz launched our 2nd album titled Rainbow of Blessings. We sang, we danced, we cried, ok I cried, we laughed, we autographed, we ate...

Igemz & my parents

With our very talented and loving producer :p

Fans of the boys? Haha. Ironic that there weren't any girls in the line up, sitting and standing.

Ahma!

Proud parents of the 'Chia-Sisters'

And last Sunday, we had a good write up by Christina Low, a Star writer. Click on the link to read it if you're interested. :) Rainbow of Blessings Article

Everytime I go for a hair wash, I try to stick to the same salon unless I am not nearby. To be honest, I am not very loyal with stylists. There, my dark secret is out. It's true that I am not very good at keeping to the same stylist. Same as talking during my hair time when I just want to be in my own bubble enjoying that me time. Although I am getting better now with this guy whom I feel more at ease with his scissorhand on my hair and with holding conversations with him.

Anyway, I've yet to find someone who can give me the curls I want, but I found someone else who can blow the curls that I want perfectly! Right down to the twirl at the end of my fringe.

But i doubt I'll see him again for my next blow. He's just too far in town for me to endure the jam for. But he'll definitely be my to go guy when I'm there.

See the top I'm wearing, that was my first time wearing it and during the wash, the colour from its lace came off. Now my beautiful white top is ruined with black stains. Boo! I get to have pretty hair and ruin my pretty top. A girl can't get everything can she.

Hair woes

This post is about something very pressing. One that has been bogging my mind for quite some time. Although it may be narcissistic but it's for the releasing of those pressing thoughts.   

After a year of trying to grow my shoulder length hair long into mermaid-esque tresses, they have finally reached a decent level of being just below my lungs.

Now, I am not one to metamorphose into a different person with different hair every week. But I do like making changes, though not very drastic ones to my outlook.

2 years ago, I looked like this

That was the first time I had chopped my hair off to a length that was above my shoulders in 3 years. Yes. I'm not very adventurous I know.

1 year ago

A little longer and with fringe.

Now:

Tada! Longer mermaid-esque tresses has now arrived!

I have been contemplating on curling my hair permanently but this would be the first time in my life that I would have taken that step.

So off I went to scout and consult trusted stylists and stylists that looked like they could be trusted - if they could give me the curls I want. They all said, no. They don't such machines here yet. Overseas yes, but not here. Their unanimous answers crushed my hopes and dampened my spirit.

However, they have been very kind to me telling me to go back and blow my hair into curls if that is the desired look I want. That is what I've been doing weekly, as a ritual during weekends. To destress myself by getting a hair wash and beautiful curls.

Le sigh beautiful curls. I am going to shamelessly ask again, as I have before, does anyone know how this can be achieved permanently?

before this grows mold

And what's an array of photos in my blog without one self absorbed one? ;)

There are more photos of my ahma socializing from one table to another all around the function room. But the stupid connection spoiled it.

It was a great event overall, have i said that already? Haha. Taking into consideration that yours truly was the one organising the programmes. I love my ahma! :)
