A day at Stresa..

By
Stresa is a town on the shores of Lake Maggiore. We went there thinking that we would take a nice stroll along the lakeside and enjoy the amazing views of the lake and also the 3 nearby islands (the Borromean Islands) which I heard is a must-go when in Stresa.

No doubt there're beautiful lakeside views when we were there but it's a super hot and sunny day. Too hot and sunny that we didn't really feel like walking, and we decided to chill at the first cafe we saw just beside the lake. -.-'''




We spent quite some time at the cafe because we totally dun feel like walking. Hahaha.. But there're still some photos of the views lah..

That's one of the Borromean Island

People can actually walk down to the lakeside and swim in the lake..

Like this guy.. He's too strong, he's swimming against the current and was quite far away from the shore.. ^0^ 


Since it was so hot and we didn't felt like walking, we gave the Borromean Islands a miss. Maybe we'll come back again next time when the weather is cooler. So, we chose to take the cable car up Mount Mottarone to see really nice views.

On Mount Mottarone


Chairlift to go to the summit of Mount Mottarone

On the summit of Mount Mottarone, there's this ride called the Alpyland. It's an adrenaline ride on the top of the mountains with great views. The experience was really awesome!!


I took a video while I was on the ride. Okay, I was quite noisy and I didn't really have the mood to admire the scenery as I was just busy screaming away. I know, it's dur! -.-'''

The Salon I Keep Returning to: Studio M KSL Hair Salon @ KSL City Mall

By
It's been a while since I crossed the straits to pamper myself at JB. Whenever I'm in JB and want to change my hairstyle or give my hair some well deserved treatment, Studio M is always the first salon that comes to my mind. I have visited Studio M @ KSL City Mall (previously known as Govin Hair) many times as I love the great service and friendly staff there. Price wise, it's definitely super value as you are getting top notch service and best quality products such as Mucota or Oway on your precious hair. As a person who always want good deals, I have researched before and hey, there's no way I can find that kind of price for treatments, perm, rebond or hair color using top quality products such as Mucota or Oway in Singapore! Look at my lifeless hair with the uneven hair color. It's time to go Studio M hair salon to pamper my hair and give it a new look! Studio M is located at ground floor of KSL City Mall, beside Sasa. My hair stylist was Ben. ...

Mucota Omega Rebonding at Focus Hairdressing

By
I initially wanted to try out volume rebonding at some Korean hair salon in Singapore but the price was really expensive, around $350 for my hair length and I was told that the effect was just like soft rebonding, except that it gives the hair more volume. For my hair length, the hairstylist usually will recommend me to perm the ends to have the romantic Korean feel. But I know I will be lazy to maintain the curls. So I dropped the idea.  I saw many good reviews online for mucota rebonding at Focus Hairdressing. It's located at Cuppage Plaza Level 1 which is just  5 mins walk from Somerset MRT. I have previously tried mucota hair treatment at Creme Hairdressing  (Chinatown Point outlet) and I really love the treatment effect. You can read about my mucota treatment experience at Creme Hairdressing . So i decided to try out Mucota rebonding. I originally planned to take the mucota dyna hair rebonding since it is the cheapest kind of mucota rebonding that Focus of...

Tokio Inkarami hair treatment experience at BumpRV

By
I had bleached my hair in Oct last year which caused my hair to be very dry and brittle. I dunno what's wrong with me, I damaged my hair further when I perm it in Mar this year. After the bleach and perm, my hair was very rough and it tangles when I comb. I urgently need some really good and effective treatment to save my hair! I researched online and saw people raving about Tokio Inkarami treatment. Through the app Jpassport, I saw some Japanese salon having 20% discount. I chose BumpRV based on the good reviews and the reasonable price. The Tokio Inkarami treatment was priced at $160, after 20% discount, it's only $130+ (inclusive of GST). I made an appointment immediately. My hair stylist was Konomi, although  her english was limited, she was polite and all smiley, which made my visit a pleasant one. Worried about communication? There's a receptionist who can help with the translation. When Konomi saw my hair, she knew my hair was badly damaged and assured me that ...
