190920 Fiona Fringe Roll

i bought this fringe roll sheet because there was a 50% discount at Olive & Young. It was just 3k won for 10pcs. cheappppp.

Each piece is individually packed and feels kinda like a wet tissue, only smaller. it can cover only half a medium size roll.

Anyway this is how my fringe looks like naturally. I had it permed twice? But i think everything was cut off so it is as good as being unpermed. It's so long and i always have difficulty trying to roll it.


 So here's me all dressed up with the roll. hurhur.


After approximately 5 mins, you can remove the roll but I just left it on while applying lipstick and this is how it looks. It's kinda wet and a little hard. and you can already see that my fringe has curled and has been shortened by 30%.



But the sheet is still wet and i thought i might just reuse it for the left and right side of my hair. lolol. You can probably use it for various other parts of your hair that requires curling?


and the final outlook. It looks half decent but that's just the beginning of the day. The moist dries up pretty fast (10-15mins?). use a hair dryer if you're in a rush but i was just afraid it might 'blow' the style away. and since i was reusing the sheet for other parts i didn't really need to dry it.



 OK i'm ready to go out! The weather in Korea is about 26degrees and not so humid. I think the most important factor in maintaining the fringe is probably humidity. i find that my fringe dies almost immediately after stepping out the door in singapore.

I was indoor most of the time so there's no wind. i went to Express Bus terminal to shop and had some good food with nampyeon. The fish cuisine at the NC shopping mall about 1 bus stop away from the terminal is so super delicious. YUMMMMMs.




and then i took the bus home. during the day i kept sweeping my hair to the side because it kinda affect my vision and makes my eyes ticklish but i guess it uh kinda holds up for a good 10hrs? i'd think if my fringe is shorter it would do a better job. at the end of the day it wasn't so hard anymore and felt like my natural fringe with a slight bounce at the top. oh and it was so warm in our bus i almost died since i was wearing furry clothes.


for 3k won, it's definitely a good buy. i think i'll get it if i don't want to take my electronic curler and for like short trips.... if my fringe is shorter. still don't really want to cut it!

161016-18 Goldwell Seminar

so i got myself a KR-CN translation job for a seminar and had to fly back to singapore to take on this. wouldn't have come back earlier if it wasn't for the job actually.

for the first day, the teachers had to do the pre setting for all 6 models so i just stood by to help out.

on the second and third day, it was the actual full day seminar (8-8pm). thanks to the chinese translator the teachers brought along called lyn (who translates so super duper well), i didn't have to do the AM session, and could sit and listen to what the teachers had to say. for the PM session, it was about the same content as the one in the morning, except the students had to take it hands on. there was only about 15 students so at least i wasn't as nervous.

anyhow here's the models for furst and second day. so lucky, i wish i got styled by them too... *_*


the one on the leftmost is lyn the translator.


i get to have dinner with all the staff on the second day as well. it was at peony jade, along clarke quay.


i've never seen shark's fin this big it's overflowing... had 2 bowls lol


there was a lot more dishes (8 or 9 course) of course.


and a final group picture on the second day!


and with my hair stylist. can't remember what product she used but my curls stayed on for like the WHOLE DAY. amazing.



all in all, it was a fantastic experience! i had to translate live while the teacher was speaking, and i had zero experience in hair care so it was very hard to understand what they were saying. i found myself not making any sense sometimes but acktosh said that he knew what i was talking about, so i guess it was ok?! i did learn loads about haircare while i was at it, and picked up tons of chinese nouns! perhaps i'll be able to curl properly and do the korean air fringe sometime... hahah....
