My First Professional Hair Treatment. SHS Hair Studio Prestige in Forum The Shopping Mall Singapore

You know me lah...., my personal grooming has been barest essentials all my life. A simple monthly haircut at a random Indian barber shop is all I did all these years. When my hair gets a little grey, I just smear on DIY hair dye. That's it lah 😄

Buddy couldn't stand my shaggy look any longer. He kept pushing me to go to SHS Studio for hair treatment. After resisting for months, I finally relented and went for my first hair treatment today at SHS Hair Studio Prestige in Forum The Shopping Mall in Orchard Road, Singapore.



Buddy is a good friend of Gary, the owner of SHS Consultants who has been in the beauty and hair profession for over 30 years.



Friendly boss Gary gave my shaggy grey donnu what colour hair a nice trim.



For my hair, Gary used a blend of L'Oréal DIA Richesse and DIA Light which are the latest L'Oréal products. The DIA series is ammonia free so the colour works on the cuticle surface to "influence" the colour of the hair. It does not break the hair cuticle (outer layer) damaging the hair shaft to change its colour. Gary suggested that I use a colour called "baby chocolate" which I agreed as I like its natural look.


Pardon me if I sound like I don't know what I am talking about (because I really don't as all my life I had my hair cuts only at Indian barbers 😄 ).



Hmmm... I think I looked like the character from Adventures of Tintin, except for the "baby chocolate" colour.



This contraption looked cool but it was actually a toaster warmer to help dry the colour "influencer" they put on my hair. (I thought they were going to install much needed new RAM into my head 😜 )



After my hair had dried, the "influencer" was washed off, followed by a scalp and head massage with nourishing cream.



After taking this picture of myself under the cool blue light, I fell asleep donnu for how long. I am told the blue light kills harmful micro organisms on the scalp and hair.



When I came to, some more nourishing lotion for the scalp 😄





Gary put on the finishing touches before letting me off.



Tah dah! I am happy 😄 I felt nice, neat, fresh and energised. I love it that it looked so natural, not like a hat or a wig - you have seen those before 😅

Very satisfied lah 👍

Thank you Gary!



Buddy wouldn't let me know how much the treatment cost. You can call SHS Studio at ☎ 6836 1943 📞 6836 1945 to check, if you like to have the same thing.



Bumped into a mutual friend. No wonder I could never guess Paul's age 😅 Now I know his secret 😄



Before and after photo, thanks to my friend Puan Chong 😄
