Chop It?

San Juan, La Union 2009.

I'm kinda having this moment of wanting to cut my hair.

This is me, 3 years ago in La Union.  Karl and I decided to have a family trip.  We surfed, Mia chilled in the room with her yaya.  After a one hour surfing class, quota na kami the whole day.  It felt like forever in the waves that felt like a washing machine spinning you around.

My favorite moment of this trip was captured by this picture.

Yaya: Can, kamukha mo si Kitty?

Candice: Kitty?

Yaya: Kitty Holmes.

So my face is fully unrecognizable, but don't rain on my parade.  I look like Kitty Holmes.

To chop or not to chop?  That is the question!

Fish Tail/ Fish Bone Braid

I haven't done a hair tutorial in a while.  So far, I have blogged about the sock bun, hair curling I, hair curling II, and the cubed braid.  I have been doing this for a while now but it's only been recently that I got better at doing it so I've decided to show you how to do this.

Curling Hair with No Heat Part II

I already taught you how to curl before.  This is another way.  This was actually the first way I learned how to curl.

Cute na sana, ignore ugly me in the background. Not fishing!

My fascination with curling started when Mia and I got a haircut from our Korean stylist.  After her normal bob, the stylist used her curling iron to twist Mia's thin hair to curl and volumize it.  It was so amazing I attempted to do it for that year's New Year's Eve celebration.  Unfortunately, it wasn't as easy as it looked.  I kept on burning my fingers every time I attempted to twist her hair.  Either the stylist had numb fingers OR I had no clue what I was doing.  It was probably the latter.

Curling Hair with No Heat Part I

I have 2 ways of curling Mia's hair with no heat. The first way, I learned through YouTube, the other way I just discovered when my mom bought this in Divisoria (Like SM, they've got it all for you).  I'll show the YouTube version some other time but here is how you do the Divi version.

So not in the mood for a demo

The Cubed Braid

Another hair post!

I got this inspiration from one of the blogs I read.  She finally decided to make videos so it's easier to follow!

Things you will need: the usual suspects

Sock Bun

I am so glad my daughter did not inherit my hair.

Why mom are you showing this to the world?

My Hair

Some people love their hair.  I have a hate-hate relationship.  Seriously, I have ZERO love for my hair.
