Lavender ash

Ok la since today I so good mood do hair already might as well blog ^^

Super happy every time I talk about hair one. ^^

Anyway, I’d been getting a bit tired of my extensions.  Love-hate relationship actually.

On one hand, when I actually take the time to style it, it looks freaking pretty please.

And it looks reddish here because it is!

This was the original color wtf.

But the pink/orange faded away and my hair turned back blond but my extensions remained reddish so I got unintentional ombre wtf.

But if not styled or in humid weather, it straightens out and I invariably look like pontianak *sage nod

Here’s a list of pros and cons of having extensions for those considering it.

Pros:

1) LOOK FREAKING PRETTY

2) Don’t have to wait for your hair to grow long to have FREAKING PRETTY HAIR

3) Can use extensions to disguise real hair while it grows out of its awkward length past your shoulders (which is what I did)

4) Solution to thin hair (which is also what I did fml)

5) LOOK FREAKING PRETTY. I think it counts for two points

Cons:

1) More maintenance issues naturally, although nothing unbearable.  Just have to be more careful while washing your hair or scratching your head wtf.

2) May be a bit uncomfortable sleeping when you first put them on because the strands will be tighter against your scalp and more prone to being tugged.  After a few days it’s okay though.

3) May be prone to split ends and dryness because it is after all, dead hair i.e. hair that’s not growing.  But people with long hair struggle with these problems anyway.  Nothing that can’t be solved with good conditioners and serums.

4) Dry hair seems to lead to tangles (for me at least) so you also need to be more careful when combing your hair, especially when wet.  But again, nothing a conditioner can’t fix.

5) May add stress to your scalp because of the extra weight but with 76style’s high tech tape extensions, it was much better than when I had the kinds that were braided in to my hair.

Anyway I’ve had extensions since last December so it was about time I had them removed!  I was perfectly fine with all the issues above, but 10 months of them got a bit tiring.  Plus my own hair had grown to nearly the same length as the extensions already so it’s not like I really needed them anymore.  The only reason why I kept the extensions on the past few months was cos of the wedding, and I still liked the volume it added to my hair.

But recently I thought I’d like a shorter cut.  I already told Hikky that I wanted to take off my extensions after wedding some more.

So off to 76style!  Btw Hikky is now at the Mont Kiara branch so if you want her, you know where to look.

This is not Hkky obviously wtf.  But I posted this picture on Instagram and a lot of girls said he’s cute why you all so hamsap lolol.  I showed him the comments then he mumbled something and kept quiet wtf.

Doing their famous ultra sonic treatment!  Haven’t done this in a while because every time I go I’m in a rush and as it is, it takes a lot of time to put on the extensions.  So today my hair got pampered <3

In addition to a cut and color.

Final result!  I went back to ash cos I think it suits me the best leh! Pink/orange was pretty but I think I looked jaundiced wtf and people were too polite to tell me wtf.

If you want my color, it’s called lavender ash.

And there’s a bit of color gradient, if you notice.  The bottom is grey wtf which sounds grosser than it really is I swear hahahaha.  It’s supposed to fade off and be ashy-silvery (which also sounds like I’m aging prematurely hahahaah) so fingers crossed!

Oh ya I had to bleach the ends 3 times D: It still looks okay… *inspects ends

Actually she was my inspiration wtf.  This is Yuria Kushido, producer of Gyda.  I kept seeing her here and there but didn’t know who she was and I told Cheesie then only found out she’s Gyda’s producer!

I love her face leh! She’s the only person whose thick lips I like.  I don’t mind injecting collagen if I can look like her :X

But I don’t think my hair can ever achieve the sexy side flip thing T_T  This is what you get with super fine and flat hair thanks mum wtf.

I’ve recently been obsessed with the hair flip thing and asked Hikky multiple times if she thinks I can pull it off.  She’d hesitate and smile and say can pull off, but whether your hair can pull off or not is another issue fml.  Sigh I will never be sexy wtf.

  • Thank you!

  • Hey there Aud, I ended up at your blog in a very long winded way. Was looking for wedding venues in Houston on “The Knot” and stumbled upon the internet meme proposal video. It was listed as one of the 10 best proposal video’s ever. That brought me to your blog and then to nuffnangx. Good stuff! Tim and you are super cute and genuine.Reading your blog also makes me miss the Malaysia so bad!! Love that you write the same way you would talk. The Malaysian accent is the best!

  • Wow thanks for your super long comment hahahah. Just curious, where are you from? I assume you live in Houston now?

  • Lol. I meant to say ‘Malaysia’ not ‘the Malaysia’. From Seremban originally but been in Houston for 11 years. If you ever come here, would love to say hello. Do you have a facebook fan page or something?

  • Yea search for fourfeetnine !

  • hye..can i know the price for the hart extensions..bcoz i want to do hair extensions…and how long we can wear it? i mean how many months?

  • I’m going to Tokyo in 2 weeks and I’ve asked my friend in Japan to book us an appointment at NALU. I’ve been dreaming about getting your extensions ever since I read it on your blog (years ago)!

    I live in Canada though, and I’m worried there won’t be a stylist here that can remove it properly…do you have to get them removed professionally? Or will they eventually all come out (or just get them cut off lol)?

    Would be really helpful to get your reply! 🙂

  • The extensions should be fixed on using special tape. With this tape you should be able to remove them yourself! Just ask Nalu to show you how to do it 🙂

  • Awesome, thank you for the quick response!! This is why you’re one of my favorite bloggers 😀

    Btw, did your extensions really last for 10 months?! Or do you get new extensions every time you get your color re-done?
