The hair is the richest ornament of a woman

The above statement is not uttered by me of course. I got it from quotesdonkey.com. Coming from a donkey, you can't expect anything intellectual. I feel almost bimbotic typing a title like this. But then again, this post is about frivolous stuff like hair.

I've been meaning to write about my birthday celebration and meet ups with the various groups of friends but I'm not in the right state of consciousness to edit photos or write about anything less bimbotic.

I spotted a few different hairstyles this week that I'm quite amazed with myself.

1. Straight hair, no bangs, pouffy ("curry pok" in local slang) fringe and side ponytail for an event. I can never do my own pouffy fringe. I read tutorials from beauty bloggers and watched videos on YouTube but I just can't do it on my own hair. Seeing the stylist at work with loads of mousse and 2 different hair spray, it was no wonder why I had to shampoo and condition twice. Though many people who saw me that day complimented my new look and urged me to try styling my hair this way at times. With my amateurish skills, I told them that I would most probably have to sacrifice 1 hour of sleep to style it like this. The hassle certainly doesn't make it to my list of daily no-fuss styling.




2. My bangs with usual temporary curls (that you sometimes spot on my blog) was the look I opted for when I met my Bimbo Sisters on Saturday evening.




3. My very 1st attempt at pouffy (currypok) fringe for just now. This time I tied up my 2nd day curls to the side to complete my look. For someone who is a noob at hairstyling and not having enough volume for bangs, I'm pretty satisfied with the final result. Do you prefer me with or without bangs?

Over the weekend, I was on the topic of ponytails. With whom you might ask? With myself. Yes, totally bimbotic.

Straight or curls? Let down or tied up?




I don't know if it is the same for countries in the West but in Asian countries, a vast majority of guys seem to adore girls who wear their hair in a mid to high ponytail. Does this hold true for all guys? Is there some mystery behind guys and ponytails that I don't know of as exemplified by the ponytail scene from the Taiwan movie "You Are the Apple of My Eye" (那些年，我們一起追的女孩).

Over the years, I've gathered enough feedback from my guy friends and gal friends that the former prefer me with straight hair and the latter, with curls. This doesn't only apply to me, it also applies to their partners and people they know.

I know for sure that my hub's favourite look of me would be wearing my long straight ponytail high up. He doesn't quite like me with curls and discourages me from perming maintains he likes my straight hair whenever I have the urge to perm.

I would like to hear from all of you, ladies and gentlemen, gals and guyz. What are your views on curls, waves, straight, tied up, let down, bangs and no bangs?
