I ❤ My New Curls

Tadaa!! I got my hair permed(again)! This time is something different, bigger, fuller and bizarre(to me). Take a look at the process..


LOL I look like some typical aunty. 

Well the reason why u uploaded this pic is trying to show the aunty side of me but to let you know the way my hair is being permed coz it's something new.
The hairdresser said that she's using a new machine(which means new technology) to perm my curl and im the 3rd customer to use it. I actually dyed my hair, straightened and curled on the same day.

Talking about the perming process, she used the new technology from.. er i forgot.. She have to soak the wooden tube beforehand in hot water for 30 minutes so that the wood will absorb the moisture and thus will moisturize my hair later. Then she wrap a layer of rubber and then cap it with a plastic cap(the yellow and purple color one). Then she connect the wire which will heat up the tube(the white color cable).

Trust me, the result is really satisfying and guess what, the perming process only took like about 20 minutes and the curl is superb strong and bouncy! My hair is very moisturize after perming and look very healthy. And the i dont feel any heat during the process as the previous perming that i've done really heat my hair "kau kau" and feels like it's gonna explode! Lol.. But this one.. try it and you will know ;)

I did this at my hometown in Perak and the whole thing only cost me about RM350 which include coloring, straightening the fringe and perming. You can't get this price is KL!! If you wanna know where's the location of this salon, do drop me a message and i will let you know as i can't reveal it here as the hairdresser is my mum's friend and that's a special price for me. However, you can still get a much lower price as compared to KL which some are really cut-throat and low quality.

Wanna see the final result? Scroll down... =)

Review on Glamor House Bangsar

 Thanks to Khailing who suggested me a coupon deals at WeBuy.com  for a hair colouring session + hair treatment and a basic manicure for only RM99!! It's truly an amazing experience at Glamor House!!


So basically the deal include a basic manicure worth RM50, a hair color worth RM230 and also an intensive hair treatment worth RM130 and with total worth of RM410, we only paid RM99 for it!! 

Me, Lingling, Bin and Pengpeng made an appointment and went there on Monday to redeem our treatment. We had some trouble finding the place but we made it at last and was amazed by the lovely and cozy place. It's a  bungalow like building, but they called it mansion to make it sound more glamour i think,  and nicely decorated with plants everywhere. There should be a jockey but he was late for work on the day we went for  out treatment. That was not a big deal to me as i wasn't driving.

So we was welcomed by a friendly staff, who asked us to fill in our details and some questionnaire before guiding us around the bungalow. She showed us the different section of their building, as they separate the services available at different places. 

So this is their huge bungalow-like shop, and the car park was quite limited actually. It's okay, they can manage it as they have a jockey there.


Ok so this is their waiting area if you brought your bf, gf, friends or whoever along. Wow, look at the comfy couch and LCD tv. It's just like a home. 



So the next section will be their facial room. Yes they have all sort of beauty services there. And their machinery for facial is scary, there're lots of them and i their tools are really sufficient. They provide all kind of facial treatment, for acne treatment, black spot, anti-aging and etc. They also have slimming treatment and the room look something like in the above picture too, but the room has its own bathroom so that customers do not need to walk out of the room when they need to wash off their scrub or whatever.



And this is their pedi and mani spa places with massage chair. Oh yeah.. ~massage~ .. 



 So this is their hair saloon, which is located upstairs, and before reaching this place, there is a place for kids to play for those hot mama who brought their kids along while they enjoy their spa treatment. Such a brilliant idea...



This the the area for rinsing the hair, and it's so so comfy. I like it when they cover me with the soft wool-like cover when they're rinsing my hair, unlike other saloon which use just a plain towel to cover. 


Even their washroom is nicely decorated and it's squeaky clean. I have never seen any washroom in the saloon that's so clean before. Something like a hotel standard washroom. Lol..



All the photo above are from their facebook page as i didnt take any photo during my visit. So now let's talk about their service. We was welcome by a friendly beauty consultant and she guided us through the building and to the hair saloon. Then we sit at our own place, and we was asked if we like any drink and we just asked for plain water, worrying that they might charge us for extra things. Lol! So they serve us a glass of water and a bowl of guava. Later i found out that you can order other beverages and you dont need to pay for it. 

They have two manicurist there and one of them came to me, and start my manicure session while lingling and pengpeng chose their favourite colour. I chose bright orangy red. I love my manicurist as she's very friendly and we chat while she was doing the manicure. Next a big and tall man, with heavy cigarette smell came near me and that was disgusting!! He came to let me choose my hair colour and i chose something like a purplish red. I really cant stand his smell and almost made me puke! Such a heavy smoker and i dont know his name!

I like this cute guy who did my hair, name Edwin and he's the artistic director. And i love the fringe that he cut for me. 

So the whole process took like about 3 hours, i was tempted to do their pedicure as they have 50% offer for all the services until the end of August so me and Pengpeng will go for their pedicure by end of August. 
Overall, im satisfy with their service, as they're friendly and 100% not pushy. They didnt asked us to add on anything or force us to purchase their products as this is very rare nowadays as everyone at everywhere is so hard sell. 

Pricing wise, i think it's something for the "fut tai" aka rich aunty, or some high class chick with lots of money to spend. I cant really afford their treatment if it's without the deal or 50% discount but that's the price for it at Bangsar. Really love their service and environment, very comfy, home-like, friendly and truly a great experience. Below are the price that i can remember for their treatment.

Normal Manicure RM60 after discount RM30
Normal Pedicure RM60 after discount RM30
Spa Pedicure RM120 after discount RM60
Hair Colouring RM 230
Hair Teatment RM130
Digital Perming RM380
