Warning: Shallow post ahead
I finally got bangs! Honest-to-goodness, full-on fringe bangs. I’ve always wanted bangs, just to see what I would look like with them, but a lot of the salons I went to before would say that my hair was too thin or whatever. Last year, I went to see Rene Vizmanos of J23 Salon (along Timog Ave.), upon the recommendation of Marie Claire beauty ed Marie. And I suuuper loved what he did with my hair–side-swept bangs that had people asking me, “What took you so long to cut it?”
I was long overdue for a haircut, and decided to take the plunge and ask Rene if I could have real bangs. Without any hesitation, he said, “Yes!” and snipped away. I totally trust him with my hair!
So, here I am with my new look. People don’t recognize me, and H again feels like he has a new girlfriend. Haha. It requires a bit more maintenance, and there’s not a lot I can do with it, but that’s one babaw to-do that I can check off my list! A couple of people told me I should’ve gone all Katie Holmes and chopped off my hair, but I’m not ready for that. I never really thought I looked good with short hair. Plus I have a feeling I would love it for a couple of days, and then start missing my long tresses. Another person warned me against going the smoky-eye route. “It’s a little too Christina Ricci na,” she said. (When Casper came out, people at school called me “Cat.” Geez.) OK, but I feel like this look requires a bit more makeup than I’m used to (which–apart from concealer and blush–is none at all).
Bangs 2007 still remains to be my favorite ‘‘do, but I’m having fun with this for now. It’s only a matter of weeks before it grows out anyway.
