Romantic Curls Hair Tutorial (Feat sunsilk part II)

Have been receiving tons of requests on how I create the curls I've in the picture above, after I posted it up on my Instagram...

So as promised in my last post, I'd be showing you all how I've made use of my two hairstyling tools from the Sunsilk Hairstyling Tool Kit! (Do check my last post up if you don't have a single clue on what I'm talking about.)

Remove its "cap," and plug it in to a socket to heat it up! 

The red light will lit up to indicate that the curler's switched on. 

You just have to wait for about a 2-3mins before application!

Just me and my silly face.

While waiting, don't forget to quickly apply some Hair tonic to your roots to strengthen and nourish them - anchoring your hair firmly in place. This helps to tackle your hair fall problem!

I mean you wouldn't want your hair falling all over the ground while you're brushing and curling your hair, right? 

(I've already done my hair in the morning, and I'm just touching up the loose curls before I head out again.)

1) Grab a small section of your hair that you'd like to curl, brush it through to untangle any knots.

2) Clip that section of your hair midway, 

Secure your hair in place.

3) Clip it all the way down to the end, and twirl it back up, and hold it for about 3-5 seconds. (Note: Remember to always curl away from your face.)

Voilà, a nice soft curl!

Continue this entire process for the rest of your hair!

I'm really amazed by what does this small curler can actually do to my hair, I guess I underestimated it. Never had a good experience from all the previous hair curlers I've tried in the past, so I'm really happy with this.

Time to straighten my fringe!

Test to see if its heated up! (I love how it's not like steaming hot, yet hot enough to do its job!)

Just like any ordinary straightener, clip your fringe and curl it inwards at the end. That gives your bangs that extra "bounce."

Once your done, just put it in place! 

If you're looking for a sweet finish, try tying half your hair up!

The Sunsilk Gift pack also provides you with a pack of all purpose ribbon.

Measure and cut the ideal length that you want.

Grab about 1/4 of your hair, from ear to ear.

And tie it up with your ribbon!

Nothing too fanciful, but like I always mention, simplicity is the key to beauty!

Simple Hair Tutorial Feat. Sunsilk

Sometimes, it can be such a hassle to style your hair when you've to face the sight of your hair falling all over the place. Can anyone empathise with this pain that I've been going through? :'(

Yeah, perhaps it's due to the excessive amount of dye I previously applied to my hair, and maybe the number of cup noodles I usually have a week is one of the factors which leads to hair fall.

I swear I used to have much thicker hair, and hair fall was never something I had to deal with - The strands of hair my brush collects is even more than the air it interacts with. Wait, did that even make any sense? Ahhh, you get my drift.

So anyway if you've yet to watch my hair tutorial on how to create a hair-bun which requires less than 30secs, do click on the play button!

How does this bun stand out from the regular ones? To some, it might be something that's old-fashioned and a rather old trick, but it's never too late to bring back an old trend right?!

I did it using a pencil, and I was taught how to do this when I was around the age of 7 by my dad's old colleague. (My memory's not that bad after all right? Lol)

Haven't been using this hairdo for ages, but I had a bad hair day the other time in school, and DANG the only day when I've forgotten to bring my hairband just had to be the day I needed it most.

Hence, the thought of using a pencil instead, came to my mind!!!

AND because some of my friends were pretty amazed by it, I thought I'd do a hair tutorial, since it only takes less than a minute to get it done.

Best part? The one and only thing you need is a pencil. Saves you that extra trip you've to make to find your pins and clips, and the extra effort to tie it with a hairband. 

So I'm gonna elaborate more in this post on how to get it perfectly secured throughout the entire day!

Introducing the new line of hair styling products and tools by Sunsilk!

As mentioned in the video, remember to wash and condition your hair with their Hair Fall Solution Shampoo before you start off anything!

I've been using Sunsilk products for nearly half of my life, and I was glad to know that they came up with this new line of hair fall solution products!

Have been trying it out for awhile now, and I've actually witnessed the drastic improvement in my hair condition. Of course, it didn't miraculously stopped all my hair from falling, (I'll probably recommend it to all the elderlies if that's the case) but I probably only have one or two strands falling of now and then?

And let's not talk about how we tug and mess around with our hair, that kinda hair fall is inevitable.

I'm talking about how you'd normally comb your hair with a brush, during a shower or even when you let your hair down normally.

So the Sunsilk Hair Fall Solution range is now boosted with a Root Lock Mineral Complex which uses an infusion of minerals to actively strengthen roots and reduce
hair fall by up to 10 times.

You've to use the shampoo regularly to see full benefits of advanced root-nourishing minerals. Massage through hair and scalp, and rinse. It's only $6.70 for 320ml, $10.60 for 650ml!

As for the conditioner, its root-nourishing minerals smooth and strengthen hair lengths, protecting your hair against breakage. Apply to lengths and rinse. Costs the same, $6.70 for 320ml. :)

What's $6.70 or $13.40 to have thick, luxurious hair? ;)

BUT in order to really see an improvement...

You must not forget their Hair Tonic! It's their latest product, and it's really easy to use.

Just apply it to your wet hair, directly on your roots once you're done shampooing, and massage it for about 2-3 minutes. 

Yay! Say hi to the freedom to style with stronger roots. You'd be able to see a huge difference if you could diligently apply it daily, as your roots will become strengthened, which would eventually reduce hair fall. This is slightly more costly, but still affordable at $12.90 for 80ml!

This is definitely the key product for the prevention of hair fall, I promise you'd see a difference.

Going through a hair test after applying it for 1.5 weeks...

No strands of hair!

Hehe, kiss goodbye to hair fall, and time to play around with all my fav hairstyles!

Love how pretty this kit is. I mean, how often would people invest in such a beautiful bag for a kit? W

Thank you Sunsilk for my stronger, healthier, and smoother hair over the years! :) You've never failed to disappoint me.

With the hair tonic, twist, tug, pull, wrap, and play to your heart’s content using the collection’s star product ;)

Dilemma? How to use them? Stay tuned for my next post for another cool hairdo ;)

Btw, if you didn't catch it on my vid, you can take part in the Sunsilk hair styling challenge as well, just by uploading a picture of yourself in a sock bun on the Sunsilk Freestyle Challenge tab - Click on their app (here) for more details :)

Good luck!

A day by the shore

Can't express how depressed I am. I know I've previously promised that I'll be sharing something I've been working on, over this weekend, but it's all gone...

The autosave function on blogger saved the pre-edited entry, and my final one wasn't saved before I closed my window! I hate it when this happens. Urgh.

Anyway, to amend for the loss of that post, here's something to sum up my Friday.

Spent nearly 12 hours at the beach on Friday, and my shoulder blades are so badly burnt. They hurt! Well, at least it was all worth it. I really had a great time. It's been awhile ever since I had so much fun, so much fun that I wished it all didn't have to come to an end.

A feeling that I've been yearning for ages.

Guess it's a good start for the month of October. Nothing beats hanging out with a group of friends who you could be who you really are, no need for pretence, everything feels as genuine as it seems.

I'm glad to have known these people. After all, 3 months would probably be too short to determine how long these people would stay in my life, but for once... I wanna stop thinking about what's gonna happen in the future, and just live for the moment.

I'll let the pictures do the talking now. :)

I've been thinking a lot lately. Reminiscing everything that took place over the past couple of months. I've changed a lot along the way, and I've discovered so many things.

As cliché as it sounds, life is really not always a bed of roses. Things happen, people change, people leave... But I guess I've finally learnt to accept that all these do happen for a reason? 

I know many of you out there are facing or have faced difficulties a million times worse than me, but I guess life would be hell boring without the existence of these obstacles.

So here's to all those who had a rough day,

And I hope all of you will find a reason to smile for the week ahead, goodnight. ;)
