      I remember during my time, they call head lices GU DU. I’m sure it still exist since not everybody are hygenie…


      I recently brought my girl for her very 1st proper haircut at
      Curly & Spike located in UE Square.

      Over the phone, I was told that my gal’s hair length will be charged at $33 for cut only. But after the cut, this stylist only charge us $23 since it’s my gal’s 1st hair cut. And another $5 off using OCBC card. Later she passed me a discount voucher for my next visit.

      It’s ok. Simple trimming. When I came back home, I did a little touch up. I think I will get a proper scissor and probably cut my gal’s hair in future.

        My gals are very active (to the extent that they have to be instructed to walk slowly, ‘cos they love running and jumping around) and their features are a little boyish. Hence, I’ve always wanted them to have slightly longer hair (as in shoulder length) to make them look more like girls…


        But my parents are strong proponents of short hair… plus my gals always perspire… so my mum have been trimming my gals’ hair short… literally… despite my regular objection. And it’s always the case of trim first, then let mummy know… or worse, don’t say anything and see if mummy can detect the trim… sigh…

          dd’s hair is always kept short. That is the only style her barber (her daddy) can managed.

            My DD hair is brown and I’m not sure why. She’s 2.5 years old.

              I think it will eventually become black. One of my cousins looked like an angmoh baby (with brown hair and pinkish, fair skin) when he was born but he eventually looked Chinese.

                Ya, the older generation always like that. What to do? Me and my sis also kena cos my aunt would trim for us FOC. Only when we got out of sec sch did we start asserting our individuality and kept our hair long.

                Maybe you can slowly and subtly \"persuade\" your girls to grow their hair long. Then, when they are old enough to tell their grannies otherwise, they'll start keeping long hair.

                My DD is like your 2 girls, cannot walk; must run, jump, hop, skip, etc to get from Point A to Point B. She also perspires very easily but she has past shoulder length hair.

                  My girls are in a All Girl school (P5/P6) and I have noticed almost 80% of the upper pri girls have long hair.


                  Actually I am sick of my girls long hair (only tie pony tail) without any nice style. I brought them to cut their hair yesterday and they now have a bod hair style, slightly long in front but short behind. They love it as it looks so fashionable.

                  Just need to show them some nice pic of short hairs. Of cos the style also must suit them too.

                  Cost me total of $50 for both cuts but i think it is worth it.

                    It took a long while to convince my P6 dd to cut her hair short. She now agrees that it \"saves\" time for her - no more hassle tying it up in the morning and shorter time in drying! Also lesser hair dropped due to lighter weight or pulled by the band. Some of her friends followed suit later on...tiis mom is \"for\" short hair...

                      My 10 year old has not cut her hair for the past 2 years!

                      She just refuses to step into a hair saloon.
                      Yes, i think it is a trend for girls these days to have long hair.
                      Her friends are now growing their hair long.

                      Previously it was so difficult to get her to wash her hair frequently.
                      Went to library and borrowed a book on hair lice.
                      She felt so disgusted after reading it.
                      Now she is washing her hair almost daily, if not then every other day!

                        After I bought a pair of scissor that cost me $90. I am now my gal’s "official" hairstylist, hee (as if she has a choice) … kee

                        I guess I am not very impressed with those stylist out there… to think of it if they don’t do a good job, a haircut for 20bucks + is not really worth spending loh…
