Hairy adventures.

Back then in Secondary School, I hated my hair. It was extremely wavy, messy, and very curly on the ends, which made it stand out a lot...(Based on secondary school standards back in my time) Everyone else around me had long, straight and sleek hair - the typical chio asian hair - which I was very jealous of. I was angry at myself for being different, for being weird and strange.

I wanted long, straight and sleek hair. You can make many pretty hairstyles from it, braid it without having stray baby hairs all over, flip your hair back and forth but still look gorgeous, comb it without the comb getting stuck every now and then. Simply putting it, having straight hair is closer to being perfect - or at least feeling so.

In order to achieve this perspective of being perfect, or at least have chio hair, I rebonded my hair year after year to keep up with having long and straight hair. And when The wavy roots grow, I go for rebonding again so that it would not look fuzzy or strange. That was pretty much my hair's story for my entire secondary and post secondary school life.

This was taken when I was 17. I mean. EW LOR. What the heck was I thinking. I still think I'm like chio or what ahahahah but in fact I have very thin and fine hair, so it looks like I have very LITTLE hair. This picture still come act chio look away from camera. ROLL EYES HAHAHAHA. But yeah, my hair was flat and disgusting... but the 17 year old me obviously thinks it looks nice la. (Siao)

This was taken when I was... 18? With Isaac! He was studying in the same school as I was earlier back when I just finished O levels...Hahahaha, My hair looks gorgeous here right?! So smooth, straight, and natural looking!! But nonetheless, it was rebonded la!

In Poly year 2 - still rebonding my hair like no one's business. Don't mind the face, me and Tiffany can be very annoying when we are together. This was the last time I ever rebonded my hair, ever.

As time passes, I got sick of the routine salon visits.So by the end of 2011, I snipped off my hair.

 I was so sick of my rebonded, dry and most probably spoiled hair from the chemicals, so cutting my hair was the only way to start everything anew. I didn't regret it.

RP's Graduation Party 2012
I was in the planning committee, thus I went to my senior's graduation party. Can't do much to my hair then, but it was okay for me, i guess. A whole lot better than keeping up with the constant salon visits which I got so tired of.

A few months later, my hair grew longer as I entered my internship.
No this is not a model shoot. LOL. It was during my internship whereby I was working as a crew member, and in charge of holding the reflector. So.. this shot was just a random one. But the main point is, check out my hair!!! CHIO OR NOT? LOL!

After some time, my hair was cut again, and coloured. It's my profile photo for the blog!! >>>>>

But I usually tie up my hair when it was at that length.

Something like that, but I totally love my hair colour!!  (Thanks to Shunji Matsuo @ Wisma!)

And slowly, it evolved to something longer, messier, and curlier.
No that's not my dog lol. My dog is way cuter (hehehe)

and now, if you've been reading my blog, you would have known how my hair has been hahaa. it's a whole lot longer now...and I guess being 21, you just start to look at things at a different perspective. I no longer feel the need to do something else about my hair to look better, neither do I care about what people think about my hair. I feel most comfortable now knowing that I do not have to go to a salon to rebond my hair once every 6 months, or worry that the wavy hair will ruin my rebonded and perfectly straight hair.

I finally embraced my own natural hair!! (Except that I still colour it HAHAHA)
