Always looking for a change

Change as they
say is the only thing that is permanent, and although I am a creature of habbit
, a religious planner and a schedule stickler there’s one aspect of my life I
love changing – my hair. After I drastically cut my hair after my wedding, I’ve
been very thirsty to try out new things, more adventurous as the months passed.
First, I cut my hair until my shoulders and then I did an S-curl and finally
I’m collaborating with Kenjo Salon for a series of hair makeovers. Starting
with a short bob.
The last time I
sported this was probably when I was in primary school. Then I tried it again
when I started working but, panicked after my hairstylist cut my hair and I
grew it long since. I never thought I
would ever wear my hair short (jawline) again during my adult years. But yearning for a new hair adventure whilst
ogling at Taylor Swift’s new bob, I just knew I had to give it a go and just
needed the confidence and the right hair salon to do it with.
Thankful for my
collaboration with Kenjo Salon, a few scrolls and reads through their Instagram
and Facebook pages I knew I will be in good hands. I arrive at their spacious
studio at the new wing of Plaza Singapura and was immediately greeted by their
receptionist and ushered to my seat. I was asked the drink I wanted –
naturally, I asked for coffee at 6 pm. Moments later, Johnson, their Senior
Stylist arrived greeting me and asked “What should we do today”. I immediately
replied that I wanted to cut it short and showed some photos of my peg. Before
diving in to the cutting game – Johnson examined the condition of my hair and
gave some advice on how he would style my hair to frame my face. I did tell him
I wanted a sharper jawline and smaller face without the aid of surgery and your
hair style actually contributes a lot. So obviously I was beaming!
Before arriving
at the salon I had this nagging feel that my face might look chubby with short
hair, part of me actually didn’t want to go at all. Fortunately, I had that
chat with my stylist so all my fears are now set aside. I was sent to wash my
hair and throughout the process, the assistant was gracious to ask me how the
water temperature was. It was more than fine, I thought. I’m sure I even
snoozed a bit in the washroom.
So the cutting
begun! At least 2 inches of my hair got cut off but I wasn’t worried at
all. My hair is very thick by the way
and screams of volume, so Johnson did some layering to make it sleeker and not
puffy. I mean, imagine my bed head to be almost afro-ish right?, if he just trimmed it without doing the
layering cuts. Overall, I am a very happy camper! I would probably keep it to
this length for a whole quarter. I immediately took selfies for my own
consumption.
I spoke to
Joseph, the director at Kenjo Salon and spoke about doing other exciting more
things with my hair. They have after all a range of services one can try apart
from cutting your hair. They have the highly-raved Mucota Treatement and Volume
Rebonding. Good news, every Monday and Tuesday get 15% off all hair services
for first time customers.
