OMBRE HAIR

I went over to Art Friend to have a look today despite I didn't really have anything in mind that I wanted to buy, but i'm not sure if i've mentioned this before, I really love going to Art Friend to just walk around and have a look at all the amazing art materials that they carry just cos it gives me inspiration for a lot of things. I am definitely not talented in art, visual art I mean, but I do generate a lot of ideas when I enter Art Friend. When I see felt or other textiles, I feel like I can make those pieces of cloths to great use like I could sew them into something for a gift or when I see pieces of wood, I feel like I can make them into ornaments etc. Its just these ideas that flood my mind when i'm in there and I love that feeling. In fact, Libraries can make me have that kind of inspiration too. 

The difference is I guess when i'm in Art Friend, I think a lot about making things and colours and gifts and cards etc. But in the library, I tend to think about really serious stuff like things going on in my life, school, my troubles and whatever feelings and emotions there are at the moment. And amazing enough, I sometimes make decisions in such places. Like the ambiance of the place make me have the inspiration to come up with an idea or a solution to things. 

And so, when I was in Art Friend today, I made a pretty crazy decision of what I am going to do with a little portion of the money that I am most likely going to earn over the 2 months of school vacation. 

That is, i've finally decided to dye my hair. I mean i've been talking about this to some friends and i've been thinking a whole lot about it to myself but I haven't got the chance to get it done cos apparently my mum didn't give the green light for me to ombre dye my hair and I couldn't do it even if I wanted to cos I have financial constraints like I haven't been saving enough for me to actually go for an ombre dye. And having said that i'm going to ombre dye my hair, I really would want to do it at the professionals because its kind of like a major "project" and I really don't want to ruin my hair. Therefore, it is going to cost me pretty much if I am going to do it at some professional hair salon. Plus, I am also going to rebond my hair too so it will add up to pretty much at the end of the day.

If nothing goes wrong, I will be doing my hair at Kimage just cos I think their price range is kind of still affordable for little me. I will still need a few hundred dollars no doubt but I just thought and feel comfortable enough with the idea of entrusting my hair to the team of hair stylists at Kimage. I have actually done some research on Kimage and I know what I want to do with my hair already. I just haven't made that phone call to Kimage to make an appointment. So if nothing goes wrong and I have a job that can provide me a decent income for the vacations, I will most likely (saying most likely here cos I am not too sure about the availability of the job that I supposedly have) be rebonding and dyeing my hair this coming April just before school reopens. 

Really looking forward to my very first hair dyeing experience and I really hope that it will turn out really well. As for what colour I am going for, that's still kind of like a mystery to myself even. Haha I was deciding between blonde or red or some crazy pastel colour but then again, I think that colours like red or blue or green actually does fade out after sometime and its something that i'd hate to see on myself so definitely going to ask about that matter before I do something that I will regret. So currently there's like a higher chance of me bleaching my hair ends blonde. Hehe. 

Okay so this is actually the kind of colour I might be going for. :)

Wonder how my mum is going to react cos i'm not going to tell her about the dyeing part haha such a bad girl right. I just didn't see what is wrong with wanting to dye my hair since i've been having black hair for the past 17 years and I really wanted a change. It doesn't make me a bad girl just by dyeing my hair I am pretty much still me! So I will most likely be doing it without her consent, just like what I did when I pierced my ear for the second time. Well that's what you have to do when you have a really conservative mum haha. Not complaining of course, she's my one and only but it would be good if she can be more open to new things. I just got to adopt a different approach to make her accept things like this. 

Oh and I got caramel milk tea from KOI too heh. I finally realised what's so nice about KOI's milk tea. It just tastes different. In a good way of course. I used to complain all the time saying that Gongcha is so much nicer, but now that I compare both of their caramel milk tea, Wow. There's like a huge difference. And when I do have a craving for milk teas, or when I actually do drink milk tea, I will only go for caramel milk teas or pudding milk teas. Just simply cos I really like the taste of caramel and it just spice up the whole milk tea kind of taste. Btw, i'm someone that really isn't such a huge fan of milk teas at all. Especially teh bing. Like the iced milk tea you order at food courts or coffee shops. I really dislike the taste of that one. Haha. Okay and so I feel that pudding milk tea is an alternative to caramel milk teas cos the pudding that they use is usually caramel flavoured or maybe its vanilla i'm not too sure about that but it does taste pretty similar to caramel to me hehe. See a caramel lover here~ Anw, so if i'm going to get my milk tea from KOI, I will order a caramel milk tea with just 25% sugar level and it taste absolutely perfect. Like perfect sweetness. And if i'm going to Gongcha, I will order a caramel milk tea with pudding but one thing about Gongcha's caramel milk tea is that I don't seem to be able to choose my own sugar level anymore I mean it used to be like a personal choice kind of thing but now, I always don't seem to be able to choose the kind of sweetness I want for my milk tea and my caramel milk tea with pudding always ends up being too sweet. But i'm somehow able to tolerate that so~ The last favourite place that I really like to get my tea from is OK tea. Its not exactly well known I think but they have like pretty amazing pudding fresh milk tea which taste very nicely of caramel and I can choose my own sugar level!  Bonus! But then again, I only go there if I happen to be at Jurong Point so that's kind of a rare treat for myself. :)


K bye~ Enough crapping.
