Hair Dye

Hi everyone! So I just wanted to do a quick update with you guys because, I know that the giveaway is ending soon! So basically, I'm going to be out of town on April 2nd through the 4th, but when i get back, I'm going to be announcing the winner, and then I will start the 500 followers giveaway!

So lately, I've been dying my hair a lot. I can't seem to find a color that I'm really loving. So basically this is going to be my two cents on hair and what you should do if you want to change your hair color!

This is what my hair looked like originally. It was black, like a true black. Very dark, with no real color to it.
This is what my hair looked like after I went to the salon and had highlights. 
And this is what my hair looked like up until today! I had gone to Mitsuwa and picked up hair bleach. See picture below. 
This is the dye I used to get the above hair effect! Which was very nice! I really liked this color, but the top of my head turned slightly orange. But my hair looked very nice and it looked like a light brown/dirty blonde! By the way, if you have very long hair, like mines, it's best to get at least 2 boxes of Palty hair dye! That way you can make sure that you get all of your hair. 
If you guys are friends with me on my personal facebook, you will know that I picked up two boxes of the super bleach, but I didn't end up using it, because the guy that I like told me that he would prefer me to have darker hair. So of course I went back to Mitsuwa and returned these two boxes. 
I picked up these two boxes, when I went back to Mitsuwa! I haven't used them yet. I'm currently dying my hair an ash brown, but I'm planning on dying my hair later next week, with this dye! We shall see.
I would totally recommend Palty hair dye/bleach, for anyone who wants to go lighter, or even a couple shades darker. They also have the blue box line, which is for people who want darker hair. :) These are available at Mitsuwa. There was a place in San Gabriel, that I went to, and they had Palty hair dye/bleach, and it was $8.99 as opposed to the orignal $10.99 to $12.99! If anyone lives in Southern California, wants to know where the place is at, just leave your email down below, and I can give you directions! 

The reason, why I keep changing hair colors, is probably because I'm trying to appease my mom, and the guy that I like. It's kind of weird, what people say, does to you. Haha. I dyed it back to a dark brown, but I'm going to be using the Palty dye soon, so I'm fairly certain that my hair will look slightly less dark. 

Anyway, I'm not going to be posting pictures of the guy that I'm currently liking. He's very shy, and quiet, and I'm fairly certain that he doesn't want everyone to see his face. Maybe later on, if I can get him over his camera shyness! :)

Don't forget to enter my giveaway! It ends in 3 days! :)

Sebastian & Nioxin Review!

Hi everyone! I have another review for you guys today! This is going to be a review on the Sebastian Professional Haircare and Nioxin Haircare systems! 

The first thing I got was the Sebastian Haircare system! It's a really good system, and I basically got their shampoo, conditioner, and their styling gel! 
I really am loving their shampoo and conditioner system! It makes my hair smell like I just got out of a salon! 
And their styling gel, is pretty good as well. I like to just shake it up, and flip my head upside down, and blow dry like that. 

The only thing I don't like about the Sebastian conditioner is that after a couple of seconds in the shower, it starts to leave my hair super quick. But I still think the conditioner is very good! 

The next couple of items, I had gotten was the Nioxin haircare line. This system comes with a cleanser, a scalp treatment, and a scalp therapy. I really love these products, and would definitely repurchase! 
The cleanser says that this system is used to remove environmental resiude and DHT. 
The scalp therapy is suppose to be a like a conditioner for your hair. 
 And the scalp treatment says, that it may cause temporary redness after application. But I didn't see any redness.  
Overall, I would give the Sebastian haircare system a 4/5 and the Nioxin haircare system a 5/5! 

Products were provided by Bzzagent. I am not being paid for this review.

Megan Fox Curly Hair Tutorial!

Hi everyone! I did the Megan Fox inspired Curly Hair Tutorial! Please check it out below!

Sorry this post is so short! I've been very busy with school lately. I've been elected president of my pharmacy technician club, so I'm going to be extremely busy! I haven't forgotten about the giveaway! I'm still planning on doing it real soon! I have to go to the mall next week and pick up a lot more goodies for you guys! :D

And I'm really sorry that I haven't been commenting as much as usual, but it's because I've been extremely busy, and I do read everyone's blog, but I don't have a lot of time, so therefore I don't comment everyone's blog. I will be back on track by the end of March! :)

Reviews on Japanese Products

If you didn't already know, I've been super excited about the Anna Sui line for Target. It should be coming out September 13th! So I've been looking forward to it, since I found about it. Check out some of the styles in my older post!

Anyway, like I said, I'm going to do a small review for some items, that I've been using, and that I love! (The items, that I didn't really like, will be in another post!) These are two items that I like right now, hope you guys enjoy! No pictures from my camera because my boyfriend has my camera in his car, and I'm not sure when I'm going to be getting it back.


What: Kose Cosmeport moisture mild white cream
When: purchased a little over a month ago
Where: At Takashima in Rowland Heights
How: This is a pretty good cream. I bought it because I thought it could help me whiten my skin. It has evened out my skin a little. I don't use it all the time, because sometimes I forget to use it. 
Cons: This product is a little small, and for the price, I probably wouldn't buy this as often. I try to use as little as possible. I believe this cost around $14 USD.


What: Samourai Woman shampoo
When: purchased a little over a month ago
Where: At Takashima in Rowland Heights
How: This shampoo is amazing! It smells like roses, and peaches! And it makes my hair feel nice and fluffy afterwards. The good thing about this product is that it comes in a pump bottle form, so it's a lot easier to dispense. It's not like a lot of American brand shampoos, where you have to pick up the bottle and turn it upside down, and dispense!
Cons: Probably just the price. But at $14 USD, it's not that bad! Compared to other brands, this one is really good!

Short post & giveaway!

Hi everyone! I've been a little tired the last couple of days. I worked last night, until 3am, so I'm kind of tired. I can't believe I got up at 11 today! I thought I would sleep in till at least 1pm, but I ended getting up early, because the light comes into my room, from my window, very brightly.

My boyfriend and his family went up to Northern California to go visit a castle. I don't know what castle, because I thought this was America, not Europe, but it's alright. Haha. Happy 4th of July everyone! My parents are going to be BBQing today! So I will share all the pictures of the yummy food afterwards. And then after eating a full BBQ meal, my friends want to hit up a club in Anaheim.

Anyway so I'm joining MC's giveaway on her website, eyezaddiction. By the way, her giveaway ends today! So go check it out!

Yesterday during the day, my parents took me and my brother to go eat at a Chinese restaurant in Temple City, which is in the San Gabriel Valley. I use to live there! It was pretty good, I forgot my camera at home after uploading that huge post the other day, so I don't have pictures of yesterday's outing.

Anyway, I still have to clean my room, since I got this weekend off, and I told myself that I would clean my room! But before I leave you, I have a little love to show you guys! This week, I got my Women's Health Magazine, and they were featuring their 2009 beauty awards! So I did some scans (My first time scanning on my new printer/scanner/copy machine. It took me a couple tries, until I finally got the hang of this machine!) Hope you guys enjoy it! Have an awesome 4th of July! And I will be back blogging tomorrow! :)
