We're just trying

It's been an extremely beautiful week. I'm sure none of you know, i just turned 18!
Two days ago, Yes on the 6th of June. Also a very funny (or creepy) story of my birthday. If some of you don't know it's told to be the day where satan's child is born. But whatever it is.
I am not, or more likely a very failed one at that.
I went about my 18th just doing alot of retail therapy. I mean hey, that's my absolute favourite thing to do.

So why the fuck not?!
Also, I'm a red head now! Well, for until my semester begins again. Boohoo.
I got my hair did at the jean yip in my campus.
So for all of y'all who don't know.
(or probably never bloody read my first ever post. Boohoo.)
I'm studying in ITE CC. Or. ITE College central. OR. ITE Ang Mo Kio.

And we have this section of our campus right at the main entrance.
Called the epitome. Why? No idea. It's just there.
There's a Jean Yip Salon.
A counter for glasses.
Some area that allows you to play the Xbox and some online games. Aiya. Something like a LAN Shop.

Ok so, i did my hurrr there.
I just told my stylist.
''Ok, i want the bright to be as bright as possible without the bleaching.''
And true enough she did what she had to do. Although i would like it to be brighter. I feel like it just makes every outfit i have a little bit more interesting.










Ok so.
These pictures are taken over the several days i've had red hair.
From the first picture, it was right after dying my hair.
Afterwards, it was 2 days later. And about 5 days later on.


The Pros And Cons on Being a (fake) Red Head
PROS
- It looks great.
- I fucking love it
- I can finally feel like Ariel
- It adds a kick to every outfit, especially if you always just wear black. (like me.)
- It brightens your complexion.

CONS
- Red hair fades quickly, also on the first few washes it started to leak. A lot. which freaked me the fuck out. Also i read online that many say if you have a red or pink undertone in the hair colour, it's better to wash it with cold water in the shower to help the colour sustain for a longer period. I have no claim if this theory is true. Because i wash my hair with cold water all this time anyway.
- If you wear white often, your hair is red. It starts raining. Your neck will start to look like it is bleeding.
- Also depending on the undertone of the red hair dye, it could fade to an orange or maybe to a brown. If you like that, then all power to you. But if you don't. You have to, of course. Maintain that colour.

Moving forward. I also celebrated my 18th birthday with my lovely squad on the 5th of june. I'm pretty sure that was a set-up. Making me waltz all over town.
The night before i had a discussion with Karis and Tiffany about what to wear on the 5th.
Assuming that everyone had their own plans.
(They all 'lied' to me saying that they all had to work!!!!!)
So i had a theme to dress-up with Tiffany.
So i chose bohemian.
Apologizes, we have no shots of our outfits.
It was splendid and wonderful. To get a surprise like that. I never did have a group or, a clique. If i must say. But they sure are more than i could ever ask for.











Incase any of you are wondering.
Yes. We used the monopod(?)
That goddamn selfie stick that you hover above the air to allow everyone in the shot.
I preferably don't like using that. But it just makes the art of the selfie so much more.
Intense.

Following up on that day,
the 6th. My actual birthday was spent going shopping.
I know. It's just so ideal for me.




Dress - Gifted by Azri & Phy. Heels - Dorothy Perkins. Bag - Zara. 

Thank you for reading this extremely 'long' post!
I will do a follow-up on some make-up purchases that just happened and also a make-over of my room!
