When it comes to hair conditioning, I still have yet to find a local brand that is more popular than Cream Silk. Although I am not a heavy Cream Silk user, I have come to respect the brand and how it has established itself in the market by delivering to their claims- at least from the respective users’ perspectives. I personally know of a handful of users who swears by it.

The mystery shampoo was finally unveiled during the New Pantene’s Amazing Hair – Transformation in 14 Days event held in Edsa Shangri-la last August 3, 2010. One celebrity after another (Andi Eigenmann, Erich Gonzales, Daphne Oseña-Paez, Carla Abellana, Claudine Barretto, Angel Aquino) came and raved about their respective experiences on how their hair feels a whole difference after just 14 days of use, others even said the transformation even took shorter than a couple of weeks. It was definitely a star studded night of lovely crowned belles.

One of the many things I do as I devise ways to get everything done on schedule is do more just one thing whenever I leave the house. I left early last Wednesday, I was headed for the Mall of Asia. I have a dinner appointment at Ibayo, so I figured I could squeeze in a couple or more things that I have yet to do. My last Beauty & Butter visit, my overdue visit to the salon to get my hair chopped and the grocery. It’s time to get the pantry replenished and I had that one taken cared of after all the pampering.

I was not really aiming for a particular salon. Since I hardly know the ins and outs of MOA to begin with. So I went to ask a security officer where the salons are. I first went inside Ystilo but the frontliner was too frazzled with one of the customers, so I didn’t anymore bother myself with that. I got inside Freshaire next. It’s my first Freshaire visit. I always pass by their branches around the metro but never really considered getting my hair chopped inside it, until now, that is.

I was browsing through celebrity blogs and I chanced upon these pictures! I literally had to look closely because in all honestly, I have never seen Brendan Fraser this bald ever. I really am not certain if this was at all photoshopped. I am completely clueless.

A couple of months ago I decided to finally get my hair rebonded again after ten years. It took me quite a while to announce this because my experience with what is supposedly well known salon, with expertise on rebonding, isn’t exactly the most pleasant.

When I first used Phytocyane Revitazing Shampoo, my hair felt noticeably lighter, cleaner! I have a feeling that this is going to be worth the close to P800 (approx. $17) it was sold for in Rustan’s. But then again, it is a little soon to conclude that it does its claim of helping women grow back lost hair. I hope it works for me, though. ;-)

bad-haircut-kikaycorner-dot-netHow does one survive a bad haircut? You only go two ways here. Either you whine and sulk until your hair grows back or you do away with the negativities and accessorize, improve by having it restyled, colored or even cut again. Whoever thought that boy cut isn’t cool every now and then?

Yes, you can be one of those ladies who are forever loyal to a particular hairstylist.

No one is perfect, that’s for sure. Of course your hairstylist can be forgiven but do you have to get stuck to feeling bad with such a bad haircut.  The answer is a resounding NO!
