What’s wrong with the hair?
"Teknik rebonding ke?"
"Tak, guna shampoo jer"
Yeah yeah…right. One of the most annoying thing in the world for me and few of my friends would be watching shampoo commercials. Aren’t we sick of it??Silky straight hair, black and shiny…so not "menggerbang". When the wind or even hurricane blows, the super hair falls right back to it’s perfect positon…Come on, get real! However, sadly viewers (which included myself) seem to be influenced by the so-called perfect hair image on TV. Well, i admit i have straightened my hair a few years back. Good experience though.It was kinda satisfying to feel the temporary ‘perfection’.
It’s totally different for me now. So, who says girls must have long cyberly, digitally, (watever u call it) straightened hair? Honestly, after a while i’m sick of the rebonded hair.It just does not necessary fit everyone.But please don’t misunderstand.Don’t get me wrong.I don’t intend to criticise rebonded hair. My point is just we must have the freedom of styling our hair the way we like it, according to our personality, and most of all whether it is suitable for us.If it makes you look great, why not? So allow me to set the record straight- Please do not discriminate those with wavy, curly or menggerbang hair just because TV says ‘go for the straight hair’. I synpathise those with wavy or curly hair as shampoo commercials always make them look like rejects..always comparing them to the straight-haired model. That’s not fair! Once my housemate commented this when she watched a shampoo commercial which showed a curly-haired girl passing by a super-freaking-straight-haired girl : " l prefer the one with curly hair, she’s much prettier".
OK gals, above all..my point is LOVE YOUR HAIR,YOUR BODY,YOUR SOUL, AND THE WHOLE OF YOURSELF. Don’t be stressed out because of your surrounding. I believe if we love wat we do sincerely, people around us will have to accept that and eventually love us for standing out from the crowd.hhmm, i bet that when TV commercials start showing wavy hair as the "happening" thing and straight is not…so wat happens next is gals will de-rebond their hair.Isn’t that silly?I will oppose to that too. Watever hair type, be it curly, straight, wavy, twisted…it’s your hair and don’t let shampoo commercials decide wat’s good for you. Even if a guy has afro hair…and if he’s cute (heheh) so wat??He will definitely get my attention. Dreadlocks? I think that’s cool….tak la skema kan?

I remember once we were talking about something and we said ‘Afro man kar?’ and we always laugh at guys who have afro style, but I think only those who are good looking can carry Afro style. Nothing is wrong with wavy, curly hair, my friend’s sis is a model and she appears in lots of ads coz of her curly hair (Maxis Hotlink is one of them)..But Dewi my dear woman, i love your hair, menggerbang, or what, i still love it!
ps: i just straightened my hair 2 months back, AGAIN!

Oh yes, and remember when we were in sec school, we said we dont want to be with a hairy-chested guy, so to find out we will koyak his baju and look at his chest to check if it’s hairy? Haha cleopatra…very wicked woman..I plan to perm my hair, but I dont dare! I dont have slim face like you
