A MAJORITY of us women are vain, aren’t we? I would like to be excluded from this group but I can’t help but agree that no matter how down-to-earth a woman is there will always be that bit of vanity in her.

It's stunning how two different photos at different ages and hairstyles can change your entite look. |
I do not spend a lot of money on beauty products or fuss over my hair too much except for the occasional trim and perm. But am I surprised over the many survey reports on women and their ever-changing hairstyles? Nope. It’s a reality. Women go busts just to get their hair done.

Same person at different ages sporting the same hairstyle but of different tints. |

Try the different hairstyles in different lengths and different hair colours to give you an idea of what you'd prefer. |
My sis goes to her regular salon every month for “hair-care day” – wash, trim, colour, treatment and the list goes on. And so do many other girlfriends who go to great lengths to make their crowning glory, glorious.
Although these women splurge huge amounts to beautify their crown it doesn’t mean they don’t feel the pinch in their purses. A colleague used to complain that she blew RM350 every time she goes for re-bonding (straightening of the hair). And yet she continues, month-in and out although her naturally wavy black hair is really stunning.

Different types of perm hairstyles worn long can give different effects to your face. |
Colouring and tinting the hair, doing extensions, perm – these all cost money and big amounts too but we never stop from this must-have indulgence.
Well, as they say, if you have the cash to burn by all means. Unfortunately for me, I do not have that amount to waste and so my visits to the hairstylist will be kept to a minimal.

I kinda like these three hairstyles although they make me look a little bit too feminine. |
When it comes to my hair I’m a lot more practical than most women. I’ve kept my perm hairstyle for years now as it works best for me. The only thing I do is to either have it shorter or longer.

If there's one thing my friends can't imagine me in is a straight hair - YAWNNN!!! The first style is Tyra's of course. |
To keep my expenses on my “whatever-little-there-is-beauty-regime” to a minimum, I would first go online and check out some makeover software to try out the different hairstyles that suit my face. I feel this is better than changing my hairstyle and paying a bomb only to hate it an hour after everything’s done.

I can't imagine these are "me". PS Forget about the body. It isn't mine. That's the celeb's :) |
One of the sites I frequent is
www.realbeauty.com which offers Hair and Make-up makeovers. There are various other stuffs in there that would be of interest and benefits to female readers but I will just concentrate on the hair in this post.
|
Damn!!! If I look like this I don't need the chat lines anymore??? |
It’s easy to do the hair makeover as there are clear instructions. All you need to do is upload a close-up shot of yourself looking straight-on. This photo will be used as your “template” where hairstyles from different celebrities are fitted on your “face”. It’s like wearing your face a wig.
|
IF I can ever be this beautiful then I will re-think about spending more money on my hair! |
So check out the different hairstyles I tried. They are not all accurate although some are. But at least you have a rough idea on what you’d like with a particular hairstyle that you intend to have.
HAVE FUN!!! There are lots more hairstyles on that site. Try them before you run to your hairstylist though ;)
