New Do and A Slight of Hair Color By Piandre

I've been lamenting how my hair is too unruly, too dry, and too long over the past few weeks. I must admit, I am not really blessed with a nice, manageable hair that I always resort to the mercy of salons or just simply sport my lifeless hair. Blow drying my hair is one savior but not everyday that I can afford to spend my time facing the mirror and getting my own blow dried hair. Not only it is hassle, but more importantly, I could not get the "right" state of a blowdried hair.

The last time I had my hair cut, I was too happy with the result but I cannot keep up with it everyday. I mean, hello, the strokes and the blowdrying style is just too hard to copy - I am not even an inch clsoer to how my hair dresser in Piandre does my hair. There are times that my hair suits my taste but most of it I am dreaming of how it was the moment I stepped out of the salon.

So with all the depression that I had with my hair, I finally went back to Piandre to ask my stylist, Ms. Elsa, to chop my hair as short as shoulder length. But she did not agree and said that I make it a bit longer than shoulder lenght. As hairstylist knows best, I agreed to her. I also got my hair some colors to shy away from pure black which I have been sporting since day one of my life. Yes, this is my first hair color!

Piandre at Greenbelt 1 is a huge place which makes me like it. It sure does a lot of clients but the bigger area gives you some kind of a personal space. I love its simple and clean interior. I also like the fact that they ahve a lot of assistants and there is really someone dedicated to you.

The color that Ms Elsa recommended is a slightest one citing that I have a black hair and it is my first time to get a color. I really did not bother selecting one for myself as I do not know the ins and outs of hair coloring. I fully trusted her.

While Raymond, the assistant was applying the color in my hair, I had my toe nails done. it was aged ago when I got a pedicure so it was really high time to prettify my feet. At a hefty price of Php 300, I really did not enjoy my pedicure. You know me, I am the kind of person who wants every edge of my nails being nippered adn all the dry skin taken out. I did not get that even though I asked my nail therapist to take out the ingrown. It was a quick pedi with an O.P.I. nail lacquer on my nails (in San Tan-Tonio somethng shade).

So after an hour or so, application of hair color is done and Raymond had it rinsed for Ms. Elsa to do the cut. I am really amazed with the master hair cutters. I mean, it's a tough job and I personally could not visualize how they do the strokes and shapes and what nots in the world of hair cutting.

Can I just say I love the power of blowdrying? I think more than anything else, it is the blow dry who keeps your locks, your waves, your straight hair, or any other hairstyle in a stated that you want them to be.Must be cool to have a house help who knows how to blowdry your hair! Salon-like hair everyday at the comforts of your home!  

So there it is. I am happier now than how I was when I was still wearing longer hair. :) I just hope I can manage to dry up my hair before going out of the house! I want to be a blowdry guru!!!! LOL.
