Hairy Culture @ Far East Plaza

yup, dyed my hair! this time i chose a lighter copper shade. both photos of my hair are unfiltered!! did my hair at Hairyculture (recommended by dodo and tyn) and i was pretty happy with the results. as y'all saw in the prev posts, my hair is darker at the bottom probably because i box dyed it a dark red a few times when i was in JC... the hairstylist put more dye on the bottom half of my hair so in the end the color turned out really even :) plus she curled my hair hehe.

So recently i went to cornrow my hair with Nai and Nat. On friday, before training we went to a salon in Far east plaza called Hairyculture. i was researching online and this salon seem to be the most well known for cornrow-ing. At first i was hesitant because it is pretty expensive and all but decided to just yolo. It costs us $8 per row and we did three rows so thats $24 to braid our hair. hahahaa. and retard nat decided to get her hair washed there which was like $20 for a wash. crazyyyyy.

okay so then we got our hair done and nat was pretty pissed off because the male hairdresser was really rough with her hair and messed up her parting hahaha.

They messed up Nai's fringe also, so honestly we werent very satisfied with their work done. but whats done so we just went with it.I think i'm quite okay with the results, although i dont look much different because i always clip up one side of my hair hahaha. but i dont think i will do it a second time. Really not worth the money. hahhaaha

Where I did my cornrows? : Hairy Culture
Price?: $8 per row
Pain level? : 1/ 10 ? I don’t know. It doesn’t hurt in any way. Maybe I’m so used to the pain so it’s tolerable (for me). Haha.

I wanted more of a indigo-purple rather than a violet-purple. But i think they only have violet so yeah. And it looks super natural. In fact, i cant tell that i dyed my hair under normal lighting. Even my parents didnt notice until 1 hour later, LOL.

But it looks violet under strong lightings (flash makes it looks red!):D
I only wished that this was my 3rd time dying my hair or something so the result will be lighter. But thanks to my naturally dark hair, its not very obvious under normal lighting even though i chose the lightest shade that doesnt need any bleaching done ):

While doing my hair, another lady customer was dying her hair too. She wanted 2 different colours on her hair. So while dying the first colour, she saw my purple hair and mouthed the word, “nice” to me. Then she decided to have purple as her second colour. And i asked the hair stylist if a lot of people dye their hair purple. She said yes, especially recently.

There. I knew that purple hair is the new red! >:D

Me and Sihui did our hair at HairyCulture (Far East Plaza, #04-100).
I know the name sounds fishy. I was wary too but cant resist the cheap price ah! They are having a promotion now so its $58 for cut and colour. Add extra $10 if you have extremely long hair. Not sure when the promotion ends though.

I have to say they did a really good job. Comparable to Supercuts, which is like my fave salon to go to ever. If Supercuts didnt charge me so expensive, i would have went there lor. I usually go there to cut my hair for $20 (student price) and the results never failed to disappoint me. Some more they dont try to sell their products. In fact, they dont even ask. I hate sales people who keep pushing me to buy their products relentlessly =.= ♥ Supercuts forever and ever.

Anyway, if you dont want to spend too much money like me, can try HairyCulture 
I might go back there to dye my hair again but need to check their normal pricing first ^^

as you can see. the present one is much more tighter and centipede-like.
it starts from thin to thick. whereas the past one it starts out normal like a normal braid.
so yeah see the fucking difference? anwsssssss it was really painful cause the lady was pulling on my baby hair and i had to go against the direction she was pulling.
which means i had to tilt my head forward if she’s pulling backward.
why?? to increase the tensinon and make it tigher.
i felt like my hair could just be pulled from its roots anytime.
after all baby hair are sensitive.
but nevertheless the end results are good.
i get compliments on twitter so thanks guys <3
