I had been asked couple times by my friends and even make-up artists in Nordi. where did I get my hair permed/curled, is it here in USA or back home in Taipei?!!!
I answered, I had them permed here since I can't tolerant sitting on the chair for 2 or 3 hours let alone wasting my precious vacation time for hair in Taipei. lol I never use hair curler after permed and I don't have time for curling my hair at all since I spend at least 1 hour dress myself up every morning. :P
My friends all like the natural look of my wave and the boucle' of the volume of my hair and I do too. So I'd like to share my shampoo, conditioner, hair gel, spray.....etc. w/ you girls.
Blond and brunette highlights gives my hair a depth and camouflage my white hair.
Left: Works great when putting on wet/dry hair to give the curl a pretty definition.
Middle: (From WholeFoodsMarket, Organic, yah!!!)
Even though it works for both dry/wet hair, I'd say definitely use it when hair is wet.
Otherwise, the gel dried w/ white residue which looks like you got craft's glue on your hair. yuk!! :P
Right: Our hair needs sun protection too.
Just spray all over the hair before going out in the sun. :)
My currently fave: Fekkai.
I believe using shampoo which gives you more volume is actually the key keeping the pretty curl instead of those shampoo which states to maintains the curl.
Oh, I love that PULSE perfection mascara so much and it gives great definition to my lashes.
The brush works great and never smudge!!
I learned one thing about shampoo and conditioner.
If you start noticing that you are dropping more hair w/ one particular hair product, then you'd better switch to other brand. It probably is not you are under stress if you are not even pregnant or undergo post-pregnancy, it simply is that hair product doesn't work for you, your scalp and hair.
To tell you a secret, (probably it is now not a secret anymore. :P hah..) I am using woman Rogaine currently. Yes, I take precaution early.
One time I saw an Asia actress about my age who has a pretty hair style w/ cute bang, side split on TV. Then I notice a tiny "bare spot" in the middle of her head when the camera rolled up on her head, I was like........wow, imperfection!!!! Well, maybe I am being too detail or too picky, but certainly it scared the he** out of me. I must say bald man still look quite attractive (like my acting class teacher, Mr. Greg :P) but never a bald woman!!!
I lost some hair during and after having my 3 kids so I am hoping to reverse the process....to grow back more than what I had lost w/ woman Rogaine. :P
Having a pretty and voluminous hair is most girls' proud and even guy's fantasy, make sure you don't forget to pamper that spot on you.
This look is an coincident copy from a magazine.

You will have heard me say before that I really admire the style and makeup of Charlize Theron. I never hear anyone else say she is an icon, but to me she is the epitome of class and grace. She is an amazing actress who, in the film, Monster, put on weight and appeared on screen bloated and rather unattractive. This brave step made me admire her even more. I mean, you wouldn't see many hollywood actresses who would be willing to put on so much weight and be shown in such an unflattering way. This proved to everyone that she was a real actress and she was willing to forsake her looks to get into character. 
Her make up is always so understated, effortless and natural and she often opts for a bronzey eye look with nude lips. Her style is uncomplicated and chic and given that she has a very natural beauty, she doesn't need flamboyant clothes to shine. She is a great example of someone who wears the clothes, rather than the clothes wearing her. She also manages to be incredibly sexy without really showing any flesh. It's very rare to see her in anything revealing and I really like that she keeps it classy. I also like the fact that she isn't overexposed in magazines, you don't see her in reality shows or continuously pushing her personal life in people's faces. Saying that, she is a regular in the best dressed pages...I rest my case.
