Rebonding

[mathsparks]

Thought I'm the only one so free to be obsessed about hair. Have done rebonding (too poker straight) and soft straight (haiz, doesn't last a month) and now gaipping my hair instead, using a hair iron. Very time-consuming!


I thought I didn't have white hair but during a recent visit, the hairdresser told me, I've a few, at the back of my head. but no big deal, out of sight out of mind.

I also take efamol epo. My current 2 bottles of 1000mgx30 cost $45 and I take 1 daily.

:? not sure why my male colleague takes it but he sure looks young for his age.

Have to because hair is one's crowning glory....

My white hair quite smart now, they like to hide underneath...so as long as I don't push up my hair, I am quite safe.....but this is not going to last for long I know.......

heehee, ks2me. white hair IS serious matter and you still play peek–boo with them.

Hi Ladies,


Just wondering when u do colouring, do u just colour the roots (to cover the whites ) or u do a full colouring. I usually colour the roots every 2 -3 mths to prevent dry/damage hair, only do a full colouring half yearly.

What about u? :?

Yah, agree. Soft straight treatments don't last very long... but from experience, if hair length is below shoulders and I don't tie up my hair, it can last 3-4 months. But, with a shorter hair length now (just above shoulder), I find my soft straight not as long lasting. Hair stylist claims that the longer the hair length, the weight of the hair pulls it down. :roll:

... start eating black sesame.

Hmmm...didn't know that black sesame helps with keeping hair black. Must try... :lol:

erhmm, veri veri pai seh :oops: :oops: to share this, but there may be some truth in this. I have been taking EPO for many years (maybe about 10 years already), and I've often been told that I look *cough* *cough* young for my age. Sometimes as much as *ahem* *ahem* 10 years younger.
( please... please... don't say i \"how lian\" ) :lol:

I figured that it's due to good genes, EPO and being young at heart!! :please:

I colour my hair half-yearly. Sometimes, it's full colouring or it cd be highlights with base colour, depending on hairstylist mood and recommendation. I seldom do touch-ups in between. Not willing to spend :moneyflies: . Also, my white hair is also \"smart\" like ks2me... hiding underneath! :roll:

Hiding underneath! Lucky u & ks2me! I very jealous leh. Mine not that smart - always \"sprouting\" out of my head in the most obvious areas. Imagine someone standing in front while I am seated in a crowded bus/train. That person goes tsk tsk tsk ..... Could it be something to do with my Not-so-smart genes??? OMG :x

i guess it’s normal for the hair to be really dry after rebonding. I have experienced the same effect when i rebond my hair last time.


Most important thing to remember is not to rebond your hair more than once a year. I have a friend who went for rebonding, in the space of a few months. In the end, she has to shave off her destroyed hair, and wear a wig!
