The Straightening Factor

the one thing that i like most about my hometown is that the things r relatively muc cheaper here than many of the other places like KL or ipoh...

a pack/plate of wanton mee costs only RM 2 or 1.80, a pack of nasi lemak(big pack) for just 80 cents.. fried noodles RM 2.50 a plate..

and on top of that.. there is even a hair saloon which is charging it's customers with reasonable rates.. one can get professional hair cut for only RM 18, treatment for RM 50.. special hair coloring + hair cut RM 150.. n etc etc...

n so i decided to pay a visit to the saloon.. since dat i haven't been doin anything for my hair for the last 1.5 yrs... hah.. beat that...

i did hair straightening.. believe me.. it's not fun doin it.. i've to stay there for 5.5 hrs.. it started with a hair wash.. then... dey put on some chemical thing + milk onto my hair n i've to wait for like 2 hrs to get those things soaked into my hair.. this is darn boriiiiiing... n was then proceeded with another hair wash..

after that.. some blow dry n etc... n yes.. the main activity.. straightening.. looks good n easy eh.. but to your wildest imagination it's darn painful.. imagine getting your hair pulled at evry part of the head n evry strands of it.. the lady was pulling my hair with her full strength!!.. i felt like i was in hell getting punished for my sins.. it was so painful dat i even had some tears in my eyes.. only god noes how painful it is... n dat... lasted for bout an hr ?

after that it is done... the process didn't stop there.. another batch of chemical thing .. n this time.. my hair is again soaked for about 30 mins..

continued with hair wash.. conditioner n etc for approx 20 mins n lastly.. another round of straightening.. ya.. this time is the most relaxing one.. not painful anymore... fuh.. relieved... n voila.. cannot wash hair for 3 days n a nice hair.... this is torturing sia...

cost of the hair straightening RM 200.. cost of breakfast : RM 1.10.. Having some painful xperience during the process : PRICELESS
