the curls are back...

After two years of getting used to the double turns and cat calls, I decide its time to bury the glossy super straight look. Well its not that easy to get rid of the hair straightening bug, but I convince myself that maybe its time to give my natural (read: awfully frizzy) hair another chance.

So I book myself into this place that looks and sounds extremely snooty and pricey....'Shibui' in South Yarra, Melbourne. Was a bit apprehensive about putting Indian hair in the hands of stylists who probabaly deal more with Aussie hair. Anyway, I get an appointment with Tommy Ward, one of their juniormost (and more reasonably priced) stylist. Well as it turns out, I had nothing to worry about, coz in the one and half hrs (yeah...thats how long my hair was pampered!) I spent there, Tommy's skillful fingers worked magic on my hair. Not only did he patiently listen to me whinge about my hair troubles, but he also gave me an absolutely fabulous hair cut. And for the first time ever I got the right styling advice. (I still cringe when I remember the time my hair was backcombed for a 'poofy' effect...gawd the frizzy knots I had to deal with!!)

So finally the last of the straight ends have been chopped off and my curls are back. Not quite sure if I want to keep my hair this short but its definitely a much more 'me' look.

My first post is over six months...woohoo I'm back... :)
