Hey World! - Hair, Candy and stuff

I haven't been updating lately, and thats cause I have no time. I have countless drafts of material which needs editing, but I simply can't find time to spend 5hours per post. Since today is Youth Holiday where I come from, and I know aside from all the June Holiday times I should post, I decided to do a day out post!

I really apologise to those who read or not, for the lack in posts, and what a short and unfulfilling one this might be... Without further ado...

First, I wanted to trim my fringe and my split ends, unfortunately, my hairdresser wasn't in till later in the afternoon, so I headed down to vivo first to get this!

Crystal View Screen Protector for Macbook 13 in.

However, the guy at the booth said they did not offer any helping services, so as of now, I am stuck with a piece of screen protector I have no idea how to stick. If you know how to, or have a tutorial, please let me know!

I later proceeded to have a hearty lunch, which resulted in my overhearing a family talk about Eclipse in a very approving manner. I have not watched it yet, and would definitely like to see it soon! Call me an eavesdropper, but the guy said that "The previous 2 films are like the build-up, and Eclipse is the real drama" I wanted to laugh. It was a guy. Who liked. Eclipse. And I thought only girls were swooning over it. (No insult intended!)

If you have ever heard of rock candy in Singapore, you must have probably heard of Sticky located in The Central @ Clarke Quay, a shop that showcases the making of beautiful rock candy, that is attractive and edible. A sure bonus for the sweet tooth! After much pondering over what to get, I got a jar of Rock Mix!

Pretty Colourful packaging!
Even yummier candy!

For those who know, such candies are simply too attractive to resist, and too yummy to stop eating! After finishing my mini bottle of Made in Candy, I have decided that rock candies in general, are tasty, wide in flavour variety, and that passerby just can't stop oogling at the way it is made.

Finally down to the haircut!

My Bangs!
It isn't a very good picture, as I've been through a LOT of wind after getting out of the salon, and it's relatively hard to comb down, so this are real fringe flyaways.

My Hair

My hair isn't usually this straight, or flowy in a nice way. I simply adore salon blow dries, and how they turn out, and therefore I have concluded the 5 things you would need for the ultimate DIY blowdry.

ULTIMATE BLOWDRY.
1. A round brush!

Best used during blow drying AFTER a using comb.

Varying sizes!

They vary in size, and the best round brush to get is totally up to you, though I'd definitely prefer a slightly bigger one as compared to the usual brushes I own.

2. Nozzle Hair Dryer

To be used with a heat protectant on your hair!
Look at the narrow end!

Nozzle Hair dryers have a narrow end that directs all heat at directed point of hair, enabling a fast and efficient blow dry to a section of hair, in any direction you wish to blow it to!

3. Leave in Conditioner

Best used after a towel dried hair! (Meaning: When your hair is only a little damp and NOT dripping wet!)

A Spray bottle!

I took a picture of a blank spray bottle as leave in conditioners suitable for certain hair types vary, and there is not one perfect brand for everyone. However, a spray bottle for a leave in conditioner is a very convenient packaging that allows the product to spread to a larger surface area of the hair!

4. Fine Tooth Comb

Best immediately after washing your hair

Varying sizes and types!

A fine tooth comb allows to get through your hair to make sure that there are no tangles that may interrupt the process of getting advertisement-like blow dries!

5. Oil Balance Lotion

I have no picture for this, once again, product brands vary, but an oil balance lotion is very much necessary if you intend to let your hair out into humid or dry conditions. This leaves your hair in its best condition for as long as possible

These are the extra products aside from shampoo and conditioner that I use for my hair.


Products for your hair are very much important. One should aim to get the best, and only the best. Unless of course, you intend to get dreadlocks or shave of your head!!
