Every 2-3 months, I'll visit Elva at Pro Trim JEM for a new hair colour because by then, the original colour would've faded and it always looks a little orange-brown on my hair no matter what colour I dye, and hair treatment at least once a month! Whenever possible, I will go for a hair wash at the salon as well because 

1) I loveeeee the head massage, and 

2) I think I'm not thorough enough when I wash my hair and the oil/dirt accumulates which can cause quite a lot of hair loss.

So this month I decided to have some ash grey in my hair!!

I actually saw some pictures of the colour while surfing and immediately texted my excitement to Elva who was just as excited as I am because I am finally going out of my comfort zone haha!!

I have always been quite conservative with my hair colour choices so it is always dark brown, medium brown, ash brown...whatever shades of brown there are, name it and I've probably had that before. So apparently Tino (@ 313 Pro Trim) and Elva were shocked that I am actually okay to bleach my hair to achieve the desired ash grey haha. All that was on my mind was, if not now then when?? 

Elva already had it all planned out for me when I arrived at Pro Trim JEM. She was gonna use the new VLook technique by L'oreal to colour my hair. I have actually already heard of this new technique during Singapore Fashion Week in May but I thought VLook actually meant achieving a V-shaped face with the help of a haircut. Who would've thought the way you have your hair coloured could give you a defined and smaller face shape!

There are in-salon pre and post treatments available in the VLook package, as well as a bottle of Mythic Oil to bring home!

Not only that, I also got a bottle of V-Shaper Essence for my face!

We started by bleaching a V-shaped portion of my hair because there's no other way to achieve the shade of ash grey I want if I don't bleach.

I was a little horrified when I saw that streak of gold after bleaching :O

Thankfully that didn't last long!

I did the Keratase Scalp Treatment after my colouring. This treatment soothes and calms the scalp after such an intensive session, at the same time, giving me silky and smooth hair :)

The greys are all hidden!!

Got my favourite photographer (H) to help me take some pictures the next day!

It is honestly very well-hidden and subtle. If I didn't tuck my hair behind my ears or if you're not walking behind me, you probably wouldn't notice it. 

I know I look like I've aged overnight and H even called me "姑姑" hahaha you know 杨过and小龙女?? HAHAHA

Hehehe I loveeeeee it :D

Also got a new set of eyelashes extensions at Dreamlash! On my lashes this month is the "Diamond Wink Lash" which features diamond silk lashes with thinner ends which give a more natural and softer look! Not as dramatic as what I normally do so this was a refreshing change!

If you are interested to try out "Diamond Wink Lash", quote my name at Dreamlash to enjoy the trial set at $50 for up to 60 strands of eyelashes. Top-up is available for 100 strands and above. You can call 6884 8019 to enquire! :)

I am hair-ready!

Almost.

I'm only left with my eyebrows and upper lip and then I'm all ready yo! Oh yes, and eyelash extensions touch-up!

So you know...I actually haven't visited the ProTrim JEM in 2 months since my last hair treatment before my trip to Perth. And almost 3 months since my hair colouring session. :o

I cannot get married with ugly roots like this so finally made an appointment to visit my stylist, Elva!

My hair colour is actually not this ah lian looking.

I don't know why my camera just makes everything, especially my hair, looks orange.

Guess this is what happens when I drop it too often :x

And I haven't had a haircut in more than 6 months 

hence the ends are looking extremely horrendous!!!

I cannot wait to be back from our mini moon then I can finally chop them all off!

Please wait for my drastic change next month, haha!

This month, I tried the new range of hair treatment from Keratase.

It's the frizz-free range that delivers shiny and smooth hair 

with no flyaways - definitely something I need!

In July, Elva did the tangle-free treatment for me 

and my hair was so well-behaved for at least 2 weeks!

I can never run my fingers through my hair without stopping midway 

because too dry and too many tangles :(

So that treatment really helped!!

The feedback she received from one of her customers was, 

she didn't even need to use hair conditioner!

And this was how I looked when I left ProTrim JEM.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fresh coat of colour on my tresses!!

There's a tinge of raspberry red under the chocolate brown which adds a little dimension overall!

MY HAIR IS READY YO!

Here's a full-body picture to give you a better perspective of my hair!

Of course, I also had a new set of eyelash extensions! 

Because it's gonna be my wedding, I chose black lashes since that's always gonna be in style...

But what I really love are these purple eyelashes!!

A more obvious photo taken under the sun!

Only the tips of the eyelashes have purple tinge which is soooo pretty omg!

The actual colour leans towards dark purple so if people are not observant, 

the lashes just look black. 

Very subtly done that's why I was okay to try them out when Rachel first suggested to me.

Here's a close-up.

Only the last few strands are coloured ;)

I have been doing eyelash extensions for half a year now and look, 

I still have long and full eyelashes!

All thanks to this!!
The ILASH, a lash serum, is sold exclusively in Dream Lash.
Whether you have on eyelash extensions or without,
this product helps in growing your eyelashes longer, stronger and thicker.

I apply the ILASH before bed (or whenever I remember to) 

hence my natural lashes are looking fuller than before I started having eyelash extensions!

I am so, so pleased about this! :D

But of course, for super obvious dolly eyelashes
AND the bonus of spending only 3 minutes on makeup,
eyelash extensions' still the way to go!!
They totally changed my life because I look made up now
even though I didn't put in effort on learning a new makeup technique, etc.
And here's my new set of eyelash extensions for this month.

Each strand is a little thicker than the normal ones for a fuller look! :)

Dream Lash has very limited slots and appointments have to be made 

at least 3 weeks in advance so if you have a big event coming up, 

call earlier to avoid disappointment!!

You can check with them for in-store promotions when you quote my name! ;)
