Threading for Hair Removal

What is threading, you may ask. Threading, one of the oldest methods of body hair removal, is popular in India and the Middle East. It is also used in some western beauty parlors. Threading involves rolling twisted cotton threads over untidy hairlines and plucking out the unwanted hair. One reason for its continued popularity is that it is so much healthier for the skin and doesn't result in ingrown hair.Yet for all that it is a temporary method, unlike laser hair removal which is as safe as it is long lasting.

I'm one of the hundreds if not thousands of girls out there who swore by threading as our monthly beauty ritual. My friend e-mailed me the other day to ask me where I would recommend to get such service. Do you want to know where I normally go for this? Read below:

Her Question: "kat mana u buat threading eyebrow ek? yg murah dah tak sakit"

My Answer:

-I paling suka buat kat Bangsar. At one of the shop-lots yang facing Bangsar Village tu (Sederet dgn Chawan, Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa, Baskin Robin, etc) Takde la sakit sgt, totally depends on siapa yang buat kat you haritu. Ikut nasib. Ada yang buat gentle enuf, ada yang sakit sikit (but nothing compares to Brazilian Wax!) I slalu buat eyebrow and upper lips. Dia charge RM9/ RM10. Ada about 2 kedai kat situ, you can go either one. Just cari kedai india, dia akan tulis kat banner luar… kalau dia ada buat facial, manicure, body scrub, etc, sure ada threading

-Tapi semlm I baru pegi buat. Kat KJ (sebb malas nak drive g bangsar). Kat depan Padang FAM tu. Ada kedai india gak, second floor. That is Sara’s favorite place. I ada la dalam 2 or 3 kali buat kat situ. I tak suka sebb everytime I pegi, sure kening I akan darah… I dunno y. tapi tak sakit la. and dia buat kening I jadi nipis sgt, which I don’t like. But yesterday I dapat org lain pulak. This older lady. Dia buat very gentle (tapi agak slow, me think dia dah rabun). Tak sakit langsung, and Im satisfied with the result. But slightly pricey. For kening and upperlips, RM14.

Hens Nite

Hens night is a party or evening out for a woman who is about to be married, attended only by her women friends. Some part of the world, it is called as Bachelorate Party. And the above is the invitation to my hens nite :)

It was carefully planned and organized by my besties, Mun, Sara and Ita. I'm sooo falttered and touched.

We spent the nite at a Junior Suite @ KL Hilton and partied the night away. We also had a Pink Pyjama Party in the room. Just imagine la kan, 6 girls in stuffed in a room with lots of snacks, music, and gossips! and they also took the trouble to prepare a party pack... a small pink pouch that has a pair of pink earings, pink bangle and pink nail polish (Well obviously Pink was the theme). Thanks girls, the night was a blast! luv ya'all. xoxoxo



You have to be 18 years and above to look/touch/ eat the cuppies above. owh, and it was from wondermilk anyway.

girl talk

Had lunch with my Kerteh friends at a Sushi Restaurant. The set that we ordered were delicious. Although the price is not that expensive, surprisingly the taste is not like the typical food court Japanese food. It was decent, well presented and delicious.

Over the almost 2 hour lunch, we sure made lots of talks and definitely catching up on gossips. I was made to understand that there is a new girl who joint the company and is apparently labeled as “hot” among the guys, although my friends didn’t agree with that. According to them, her height and slim build up are the attributes that made her “look” hot. Well, that is not what we are bitching about. The problem with this “hot” chick is that she’s been bf hopping. Making promises and breaking people’s heart. Well, what can we say, serve the men right, right? They always go for good look, and personality comes second. You ask for it guys!

Next topic on the plate is BRAZILIAN WAX! My friend is sharing her experience doing it. And ouch, hell it hurts (according to her la kan…). She is doing it at Strip Ministry of Waxing, The Curve. Apparently, it is a Singapore Company and now spreading its wing to Malaysia. They also have another branch in Bangsar. Well, back to the wax experience. She said that for first timer, you cant help but to fee a little bit “violated’ as you are required to literally strip from waist down and SPREAD your legs for them to wax all the hair away. And she said it is more painful for “front” part as compared to the “back” part. And you get to choose the design! Wohoo…. They can perform art on your private part (hehehe,,, it rhymes) The price for Brazilian Wax (all clean) is slightly higher. The price starts from RM140 (if I’m not mistaken). You can also opt for bikini wax and the place also offers other services which include manicure and pedicure. According to my friend, the professionalism of the staff that is performing the services will somehow make you feel comfortable throughout the process. Plus, the sexy, clean and fresh feeling that you feel afterwards is what matters the most. I’m gonna give it a try soon, and share my experience with all of you, that is when I finally gather all the courage needed 

On another note, driving back home this evening, I encounter a very interesting or rather sad experience. Stopping at a traffic light, the girl who’s car is next to mine caught my attention. She is all glamorous and trendy (tapi tak lawa pun… hahaha, jahat!). Nice cloths, full make-up, big sun-glasses, cigarette on one hand and was nodding her head to the music playing on her radio. Maybe sebab dia rasa bosan, she took out a chewing gum, unwrapped it, gum into the mouth and to my horror, out go the wrapper through the window! Hello Cik Kak, awak tu melawa jer pandai, tapi sgt la teruk perangai. Have you heard of Global Warming? Or pollution for that matter? Buruk perangai tu makcik! Eeee… geram!

Ok la, dunno y I’m stressed over this tiny weeny matter. PMS kot (blame it on the PMS again).

Well people, save the environment. Peace!
