CURLY WURLY/TNPNF

Yesterday, as I made my way to meet my hairstylist, Abang Sam, my heart was beating super duper fast.
Sam is not the typical hairstylist who asks what you want one.
Instead, he will look at your face and tell you which hairstyle will rock your face.

He gave me bangs.....




He hated my safe kakak-kakak long hair and gave me an ultra short crop.....



So, really, yesterday, I absolutely had no clue what he wanted to do with my hair.
He smiled that sneaky smile of his when I entered his salon. (new salon by the way! SO POSH!)

Sam gave me 2 choices.

'Okay Nura, you choose k. Cut even shorter OR perm?'

WALANDEEEEE Bang! What kind of choices are these man???Torture sia you!!!! I want to grow my hair long.....

He interrupted and said,' Ok we perm then!'

'Bannnnngggg, my hair is too short. Later like Phua Chu Kangggggg how?'

'Trust me. Your badan so keping, the curls will do you good. The mulut just diam. You gotta be versatile Nura.'

(You're skinny so the curls will do you good. Just keep quiet.)

Well, whatever you say Sam....




I don't know about you but everytime I come back from hair salon, I sure take many many pictures of myself. Thank God Nyla and Mr E weren't at home. Their eyes would be rolling. :p
And if your eyes happen to be rolling, paiseh la ah. Just focus on the hair yo!




I really like the messy look and feel of the curly locks.
The result is added volume with loads of waves rather than curls.

And wanna know Sam's inspiration to curl my locks?

Yup, the ever so so beautiful Halle Berry.
Her curls here are much tighter and according to Sam, if I wanna have curls like Halle Berry, I would have to curl my hair with a flat iron. I hope I have the time to do this next Tuesday! :)))


Abang Sam, thank you for giving me the confidence to keep changing my hair. If it weren't for you, I'd still be stuck with the long -copper- red- kakak-kakak hair for back then, getting a new style was really frightening for me.
Not anymore, now. :)

Ladies, Abang Sam, a senior hairsylist is an amazing man, with a wealth of suggestions for hairstyles. Highly recommended.
He is no longer at Novena Square.


This sought after hairstylist of mine is now at GLITZ HAIRWORKZ #02-19 Triple One Somerset.
If you're in need of that perfect hairdo, do call Sam personally at 90258774.

And I have a piece of good news for those of you who are not in my Twitter and Facebook list.
2 days ago, I accepted The New Paper's invitation to be one of the judges for the upcoming The New Paper New Face Grand Finals.


I feel incredibly honoured to be part of the panel to choose this year's The New Paper New Face.
Honestly, I believe I will make a good judge simply because like these 20 beauties, I have gone through the exact same audition processes as them nine years ago.
If anyone could emphatise with them, that person would be me.
I SO FEEL YOU GIRLS!
Looking forward to see you leggy beauties on the stage ya. :)

Man, I need to get myself some 10 inches heels or something! These girls got miles and miles of legs!
