💇🏻 Snip goes the scissors

Dear Dayre,

Guess who got a haircut!

(Me, obviously)

Well I only wanted to touch up my highlights initially. But I guess I've been keeping this long long fringe for the longest time and since snipping it off seems like the most fun and least drastic thing to do to my hair…

💇🏻💇🏻💇🏻

AKA I hand itchy just needed a change!

Well I know I can always leave my hair in the trusty hands of Salon Vim la. Even if I keep on second-guessing my decision lollll 😑

I swear my heart was thumping a little too quickly when my hairstylist started snipping my fringe off.

It's been a LONG time since I had bangs, and well I get apprehensive every time I cut bangs and sometimes I regret it, but somehow I always itch to want to just cut it off!

The last time I legit had bangs.. 2011.

If you could hear the conversation between me and my hairstylist… It's a joke.

Me: how ah should I cut bangs??

Hairstylist: try lah if you want, your forehead high can pull off.

Me: but I scared I look stupid.
Ok lah hair will grow back lah! Aiya YOLO la just cut.

Hairstylist: *prepares to cut*

Me: ok I humji now don't cut too short Kay?
Will it look ok??
Must still hide my face & make it small ok?
Ok la CUT LA CUT LA! Hair only will grow back one!

Me: will I look too young with bangs?

Hairstylist: young not too meh? Don't want look younger?

Me: I want but I scared later childish. I want to look 稳重 you know?

😅😅😅 FHL (f hairstylist life)

Cut one fringe only so indecisive and KPKB. Hahahahaha. Sorry 🙁

Best of all, after I told my hairstylist I don't want too short, I changed my mind and went back down today to get it trimmed shorter cos it was like 不长不短.

*浪费时间!!!! 要剪短又看不开*

LOL so fickle-minded I cannot stand myself.

So how do I feel now after taking a leap of courage and faith to cut off my fringe?

Quite liberated, and I feel girlier and also younger! It's a pretty good sensation.

If I had more guts I might have just cut off all my hair (do a short bob) but well I think I'm not ready for that yet and maybe I will never be.

I do foresee that having a short fringe will also be a pain in the ass but for now it feels good and I guess when it gets too annoying I will just do what I did previously and just patiently grow it out.

If you also noticed, I put some purple highlights in my hair and I just love how it melds in so seamlessly into the rest of my ash brown hair color!

If I sweep it to one side, it looks like this.

I feel so demure and cute I can't even. Hahaha.

Slightly comforted by the fact that I can still fake my long fringe by doing an extreme side part so my long hair covers the short fringe hehehehe 🙊

Heh.

What do you think of the new hair? 🙆🏻

In other news, this week's TVD collection is up on www.thevelvetdolls.sg! ❤️

I've been sourcing for really awesome apparel lately and this collection has some of my favourites.

Like the pinstriped shirt dress and the abstract culottes!

It's really comfortable and so easy to wear: you can dress it up or down depending on how you style it!

With a relaxed blouse, it's just the most comfortable yet very presentable at the same time!

Jazzed it up a little with my vintage Chanel baby ❤️

This @Evonnz bugged me nonstop to send her the Shirtdress so she could wear it to Vietnam!

You lucky I never go if not you cannot wear liao will outfit clash with me 🙊

But yes, it's such a "just lup on and get out of the house" piece I think I need to stock up. Keep two pieces just in case, you know?

Unfortunately it's already OOS so I'm thinking of doing a BO for it! If you also want a BO for it do leave me a comment kay so I can gauge the interest 😁
