Luxury Parlor

I am really sure that every woman in the world wants to present her best appearance at all the time. That’s why we spend money to buy beauty products especially for daily use. In my drawer, I always have a bottle of skin moisturizer and body butter, day and night cream for my face, lip balm and lip butter for my lips. And in my bathroom, beside the soap and facial wash, I also have shampoo and conditioner as well as the hair serum. What? Don’t you give that look to me LoL. Yes, I have so many things inside my drawer and my bathroom not to mention my grooming stuff. Hahaha…
Anyway, in my previous post I already mention that I’m having a hair loss problem right now. And for now, I put away any kind of shampoo and conditioner I have and replace it with the anti hair loss ones. Indeed, it’s a bit expensive compared to my last shampoo but it’s alright as long as it can stop my hair loss issue. Do you know that you can also buy shampoo and conditioner from online shops? And you can save your shopping time to do something else instead. I know a suitable site where you can search for almost any kind of shampoo and conditioner you need. Luxury Parlor is the answer. You can find hair treatment product such as Bumble and Bumble, Moroccan Oil as well as OPI products. They also provide natural and organic products for you who need ones.

Hair Loss, Go Away!

I have hair loss problem recently *sigh* I never have any problem at all with my hair before. Though my hair is relatively thin but it always looks smooth and shiny. Its killing me to watch my hair falls every time I comb or wash my hair. I don’t want to be a bald lady. Not ready yet LoL
Or maybe it’s because I colored my hair constantly in these past two years. You know, since I don’t have any problem with my hair, I like to change the color of my hair every year but I've never bleach it before. The hair stylist told me that bleaching is not good for hair. So I just asked them to color my hair. I love the red or copper color.
Right now, my hair is not entirely covered with the red color anymore because my hair grows longer and the colored part is getting lower and lower every time. I actually already have a plan to visit a hair saloon to get my hair re-colored. That’s when I noticed this hair loss problem and I changed my mind right away.
Colored hair is the last thing I have on my mind right now. I want to have some hair treatments right now to fight this hair loss problem. I use a special shampoo and conditioner for hair loss problem right now to replace my colored hair shampoo and conditioner. After a few days, I found a significant progress. Though I still find hair on my comb but they’re not as many as before. I think this shampoo is going to help me and bring back my healthy and shiny hair. And maybe (just maybe) I can start to color my hair again in the next two years. I’m sorry I can’t resist it. I love to see my hair in a red color LoL

Finding A New Hair Stylist

One thing that I also confused about is how I am going to get a suitable hair stylist in here, my new town. I used to have a good one back in Medan. He is my most favorite hair stylist ever. I actually met some other hairstylists before him but this man, Rudy, is the best of all.

He understands completely what I need just by using simple few words and instructions. Not only with the cutting style; as he has a perfect mixture of colors every time I want to highlight my hair also. I told him that I need a special mixture colors since I want to look different. I don’t want to meet another female with the same hair color in the next day. He usually laughs and starts discussing about what kind of color that I may like.

When he starts to cut my hair, he usually gives me some advices about the perfect cut for my face shape. He doesn’t hesitate to argue me when he disagrees with my choice. He will explain the consequences first and ensure that I will never going to regret my decision. When this happened, I usually give in and accept his advice. Woaallaahh…I should never question his advice, you know. I always like it.

But now, I must do everything from the beginning once again. I must open my eyes and my ears widely in order to get my “new Rudy” in this town. One thing for sure, I don’t like to do some trial and error stuff here, ladies because it’s my hair that we’re talking about. I need to find a right hair stylist as soon as possible. I managed to have my last hair cut with Rudy last month, just a few days before our departure. So at least in the next two months, I’m going to need to go to a hair salon back and cut my hair.

Uuhh…I hope I will find a perfect one for me here really soon….
