My Soirée Salon and Spa Experience

I wasn't really supposed to write again, but after this afternoon's wonderful experience, I figured that I just had to.

Beauty complements fashion. Having a really great haircut or hairstyle or makeup accentuates the clothes, shoes and accessories that you're already wearing. And so I thought of also covering beauty stories in this blog, starting with today's entry.

Earlier this afternoon, I went to the salon my brother frequents for his haircuts, to get my own haircut. Like him, I wanted to have my own Korean-inspired haircut with sleek layers so I went there. 

The name of the salon is Soirée Salon and Spa. It's located at Katipunan Avenue, beside BPI and Ching Santos. It's small and a bit easy to miss so you have to look closely for its green store sign to find it.

I brought an issue of W Korea from last year to show the stylist a couple of photos of the cut I wanted. He showed me how it would look on me, and then I requested for him to make it shorter than the one in the magazine. Shortly after cutting my hair, he asked me if he was getting it right, and I said yes. He proceeded on until my haircut was done. He worked very quickly too and finished just in time for me to attend an afternoon gathering.

I was surprised to see my peg and new hairstyle look really similar, even with my prescribed length. It was the first time my hair was handled by a male hairstylist and he had gotten what I wanted right, through consultations with me and minimal fuss. I didn't get to take a lot of photos nor get to ask more information about the salon since I didn't plan on covering my experience, but I really enjoyed my first time there. I will definitely go back and avail more of their beauty and relaxation services!

News: Charice Pempengco's New Hairstyle and Tattoo

International singing sensation Charice Pempengco arrived yesterday, March 9, 2012, for the Manila leg of her Infinity tour. She came in with a new haircut - short, light-colored and slightly edgy. She also sported a tattoo which says "Love Eternally" and has an infinity sign between the two words.

To be honest, her new haircut initially came as a total shock to me. Then I remembered, that she was an artist, and this was her way of expressing herself so we should all respect it.

To Charice, good luck and may continued blessings come your way! Mabuhay ka!
