rebonding kills your hair

my hair smells really good.. but its totally flat now.. after being thoroughly ironed during the entire rebonding process..

went through a couple of steams (2 if i'm not wrong) and approx. 3 hair washes :) my hair reminds me of a curtain now - just a single layer that u can draw here and there. as they steamed and steamed my hair..and IRONED it repeatedly.. my hair smoked in vain and as my hair touched my face and burned it.. my cheeks turned into a cherry-red. HAHA. ok.. maybe crimson? but o well. amanda thought i was blushing!! NO WAY DEAR.. its just my sensitive skin reacting to the extreme heat.

kenji was really nice to amanda and i.. very patient and gentle.. etc. best part is, he is not an ah gua!!! u can just lie there comfortably without a single worry in this world and trustingly let him wash your hair because you know he will do a proper job.

and he recommended us to this Fried Rice thingy.. so we picked up the phone and dialled the no. and ordered it.. not too bad indeed :) i love Haru Scene. ooh and one of the girls who helped to iron my hair at a point or two or so looked SO ADORABLE AND KAWAII AND CUTE!!! she had big hair and a wide face with a flawless complexion.. plus the tinge of blush and the shade of pink lipgloss she wore.. voila! it was a perfect dolly face - soooo pretty - prettier than those kinda girls who have "i am trying to act jap" written all over their foreheads and clothes. :)

T_T. however, the entire rebonding thing cost me $284. i didn't only have to pay for the main rebonding.. i had to purchase this extra tube of loreal stuff for kenji to put on my roots to protect them further because i've done rebonding before.. and that wasn't included in the main rebonding price. plus the japanese syoss treatment that didn't come cheap (and won't last me for more than 1 month) and plus the shampoo (250ml) and the conditioner (which won't last me for more than 2 mths)...

the voucher did save me about 25% of the cost.. so i suppose that kinda helped. but considering i had to pay 75% more - i'd think this rebonding was just as expensive as the one i did at kimage..

i m so afraid tt my hair would just dry and wither away because after all that intense-heat ironing, it felt kinda dry but it was so much better after the treatment.. i must have faith in the japanese rebonding shampoo that kenji personally recommended - even the conditioner is a sold-out item and the syoss colour care range was recomended by David Gan in female! :) hopefully all will turn out fine as kenji told amanda that what happens to dry/weak hair all depends on the hair care products we use from now on.
