Posted on February 6, 2018 by missuschewy

Ready for CNY thanks to @dansonchea, @kelly.lok and the team at @99percenthairstudio! Major love for my purple hair with pink streaks 💜💕More on my IG stories in the meantime!

A post shared by Charlene Chew 🇸🇬 (@missuschewy) on Jan 28, 2018 at 5:18am PST

Hello everyone! If you have been following me on IG or FB, you would know that I recently got a hair transformation at 99 Percent Hair Studio at Bedok Point! For the first time,, I received sooo many compliments about my hair, so I decided to share more about it on my blog today!

My good friend Mag from Modgam swears by 99 Percent Hair Studio to give her the craziest and most creative hair colors to suit her artistic image and introduced me to this studio. Previously located at Katong, the team moved to Bedok Point not too long ago. Upon stepping in, I like the clean and cosy environment which gives a sense of warmth. Most importantly, there is FREE WiFi! Fret not if you are going to spend long hours in the salon because you can keep yourself entertained by watching dramas etc.

One last look before I bid my old hair color goodbye! I didn’t know that the colors have faded so much until one of my colleagues told me that she had thought I was an angmoh when she was standing behind me. LOL!

These are some of the products that were used on my hair. 99 Percent Hair Studio believes in providing the best for their customers and that includes selecting premium products that will protect one’s hair.

Here’s my stylist, Kelly, helping to first touch up my hair colors, especially the roots.

After a nice and relaxing hair wash, Kelly helped to trim my hair as there were dry and split ends. At the same time, I was pampered with a manicure!

We decided on purple with some pink highlights so here we go! Wheeeee!

Was asked to choose a nail color but there were so many colors to choose from! I finally settled for something simple!

I think it is a great idea to have your nails manicured at the same time as it is definitely killing two birds with one stone! Saves so much time!

Alternatively, there is a dedicated area just for manicure and pedicure.

YES! Chinese New Year is coming! If your nails are still looking bare, you know where to go to for the cutest CNY themed nail art!

Yay to freshly manicured nails! It’s been so long since I last did my nails cuz no time. But now, no more excuse! Can do hair and nails at the same time!

See what I mean? My hair colors are all up!

Look at that generous amount of hair mask!

Applying of hair masks helps to lock in the colors, deep conditions hair, keeps hair smooth and reduces frizz.

TADAH!! The final result! SO SO SO HAPPY WITH MY NEW HAIR!!

Here’s the good news! There is NO CNY surcharge! If you don’t have plans yet, wait no more! Also, spend just $19 for one year’s membership and you will be entitled to:

– 15% off any full hair chemical services (Mon to Thu, 11am to 4pm)

Mucota Scena Plus Treatment Promotion at Kenjo Korean Hair Salon

Posted on September 19, 2017 by missuschewy

We had our family photoshoot recently because Cayla was turning one back then. Because my hair was in need of a change in color before the shoot, I decided to pay Kenjo salon a visit!

I told Justin that I’m hoping for rose gold colored hair but without having to subject my hair to further bleaching again and this was the outcome! What can I say? I love it! The color is very warm with a very subtle reddish tint.

Thanks to Justin, my hair was given the Mucota Scena Plus treatment which helped to restore moisture and shine to my hair!

I highly recommend the Mucota Scena Plus treatment to everyone! My hair is definitely more manageable and looked a lot healthier after the treatment! Check out the special rates by Kenjo and don’t miss out on this promo!

I brought home these goodies to further pamper my hair! I use the Olaplex Hair Perfector twice a week. Before my shower, I apply a generous amount to damp hair and wait for about 15 minutes before rinsing it off. The Olaplex Hair Perfector is a take home treatment which helps to strengthen hair. I’m currently using the Mucota Aire+ Shampoo and Mucota Aire+ Treatment Moisture. Really love this combination of hair products as my hair tends not to be frizzy and dry as the hair mask is able to retain moisture in hair effectively! I find that just a dollop is sufficient to work wonders!

Glad the photos from our photoshoot turned our really well! Cannot stop admiring my healthy-looking hair, thanks to Justin and Kenjo salon! To book your appointment, call 6238 8083 and quote “MISSUSCHEWY” for 15% off ALL hair services for your first visit at Kenjo!

Kenjo Hair Salon: Olaplex Treatment and Davines Hair Color

Posted on March 30, 2017 by missuschewy

Before our trip to Bali, I scheduled an appointment with Justin from Kenjo Hair Salon because a good amount of my black roots were showing and I also wanted a new hair color for a change! I know that I can always count on Kenjo salon to make me feel pampered and deliver only the best each time I spend hours in the cosy salon!

Here’s a “Before” photo of my hair. Apart from the black roots, I would say that my hair was still in quite good shape? Must be due to the 3-step Mucota Scena+ hair treatment which I did earlier! Long hair is always very hard to manage. It takes an awfully long time to dry and gets entangled easily! But then again, I cant see myself with short hair at all. For ladies who share the same sentiments, do give one of the treatments at Kenjo salon a try!

I told Justin that I wanted to try a cooler ash color for a softer look and he recommended something along the lines of 7A. If we were to attempt a very light color like 9A, we would probably need some very serious bleaching! Even so, Justin advised that bleaching was still necessary for my case to achieve the ash effect and he assured me that Kenjo uses good quality products that would not harm customer’s tresses! This time, I was introduced to Davines hair color which is absolutely free of ammonia and is very gentle on the hair and sculpt!

It seems like bleaching and Olaplex go hand in hand because Olaplex rebuilds and strengthens the bonds in your hair, making it stronger and healthier! We all know all the effects of bleaching, so by incorporating Olaplex treatment during the bleaching process, it actually negates the damaging effects of hair bleaching!

After first round of bleaching, Justin decided that we should go for another round!

My hair is considerably bleached after two rounds of bleaching! I don’t think I would dare to walk out of the salon like this. Hahaha.

Oh did I mention how thrilled I was when Justin asked what crazy colors would I like to go with my ash hair?! I picked blue and violet because I can’t imagine myself with green, yellow or orange hair…yet!

I have always loved the hair washes at Kenjo because the temperate of the water is just right, and they provide long thick blankets! So hard to not fall asleep! 😛

After blow drying my hair, here’s a little sneak peak of the ash grey, violet and blue colors in my hair!

Mad love for my new hair! The effect was subtle and not over-the-top, and yet there was a slight wildness to it!

This photo was taken by my colleague the very next day. A pity that the curls were not permanent! Boohoo. Anyway, I was still very happy with my new hair colors!

Very blessed indeed to have Kenjo salon pamper me with only the best! I brought home these MELU shampoo and conditioner by Davines, which can help hair color last longer and is also a real treat for the hair! It has a mild minty smell and also has a slight cooling effect when applied to the tresses! I have been using it consistently for almost a month now and I have nothing but praises for these!

The soft ash colors are still retained after so long! Looking forward to my next pampering treat at Kenjo! If you are planning to visit Kenjo for the very first time, feel free to quote “MISSUSCHEWY” for an amazing 15% off any hair service or treatment when you call 62388083 to book an appointment!

Kenjo Hair Salon: Mucota Scena+ Hair Treatment & Discount Code

Posted on December 29, 2016 by missuschewy

Maintaining a healthy head of hair takes more than just regular shampooing and conditioning. Do you know that our hair becomes coarse, dry and brittle not only through daily wear and tear, but is further worsened by heat treatment, UV radiation and chemical treatment? It is important that we allow our hair to undergo treatment regularly in order to strengthen our hair, put back its moisture, as well as restore its natural balance.

I had the luxury of returning to Kenjo Hair Salon for the award-winning 3-step Mucota Scena+ hair treatment earlier this month before our Christmas photoshoot. As usual, I was promptly showed to my seat and then asked if I would like a drink. Biscuits were served along with orange juice! The hair assistant proceeded to give me a pampering hair wash and head massage which felt very invigorating.

Before beginning the treatment proper, a special machine was used to spray distilled water all over my hair. The machine is powered by nano technology which allows tiny water molecules to penetrate the hair follicles more effectively for better absorption of the Mucota Scena+ later on.

Using advances in material-sciences and biotechnology, Scena+ restores and protects hair by focusing on replacing important natural elements that make up the intercellular components in hair. Scena+ is a new exquisite treatment from Mucota that restores hair internally using ingredients found in hair itself.

First step: Adel – Moisture Base Treatment

Adel contains a mixture of 4 kinds of ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine that can be found in natural ceramide. It is applied to freshly shampooed hair and then rinsed off. This step creates ideal conditions for treatment by deep hydration and restoration of natural hair elements, making hair soft and hydrated.

Second step: Brava – Intensive Hair Repair

Brava contains 5 different hair repair elements to target different kinds of damage to hair. A net-like structure in hair is created that prevents essential elements from flowing out and improves texture at the same time.

Third step: Calore – Lustre Protect and Seal

Finally, Calore protects hair cuticle by restoring its hydrophobic surface. It prolongs treatment effects in hair via super lipidure; coating the outer cuticle with a 7-layered lamellar liquid crystal nano-structure and creating a pseudo-cuticle, keeping hair shiny, smooth and silky.

Heat is applied to ensure that the goodness of the treatment products get absorbed into my hair! I went for a final hair wash after about 15 minutes.

I felt like a different person as I stepped out of Kenjo salon. My hair was no longer dry and lifeless. Instead, it was so smooth, silky and bouncy that I could not resist touching my hair every now and then!

Kenjo Hair Salon has been running its Christmas promotion consisting of specially selected Mucota AIRE products which you can use in the comfort of your own home! Both packages even come with a free mini styling iron! Definitely something you would want to bring along for your overseas trips! For more info on the individual products and its functions, please refer here. HURRY! Only a few sets left!

I would definitely recommend the Mucota Scena+ hair treatment as a regular treatment to pamper your tresses and what’s really awesome is that it takes only about an hour, so you can even consider popping by Kenjo salon during your lunch time! For new customers, call 62388083 to make an appointment and don’t forget to quote “Missuschewy” to enjoy 15% off all hair services at Kenjo!

Kenjo Korean Hair Salon Review & Discount Code!

Posted on October 12, 2016 by missuschewy

Hello chewy friends! If you have been following me closely on Instagram and Facebook, you would know that I had a hair makeover a couple of weeks back! During my last trimester of pregnancy, my hair was in bad shape and not wanting to sit in a salon for hours with a humongous tummy, aching back and swollen feet, I randomly picked a hair dye off the shelves at NTUC and dyed my hair at home, hoping to cover up my black roots that had started to show. It was only a temporary measure because my previous hair colour was quite light, making the black roots very obvious, and I didn’t want to look awful for our family photoshoot that I had scheduled to take place after my delivery.

After my confinement, I was invited by Joseph Foo, Founder & Director of Kenjo Salon to try out their professional hair services. Kenjo Salon, located at the new wing of Plaza Singapura, is set against a sleek and modern ambience with a combination of local and Korean stylists. The salon has been around for about 2 years and keeps up-to-date by offering their valued customers numerous hair services such as Mucota colour, volume rebonding, omega oil therapy treatment perm and a whole lot more! When I walked into Kenjo Salon, I knew my hair would be in good hands!

I was shown to my seat and was immediately offered something to drink. Kenjo Salon has their own drinks menu with a wide selection of hot and cold beverages! There is also complimentary Wi-Fi so customers need not worry about exceeding their data plan while keeping themselves occupied at the salon!

Senior Stylist Justin Teo was assigned to take care of my hair. Obviously, DIY hair colouring was a very bad idea on my part! My hair looked like a total disaster! Although I had a hundred and one things I wished I could do to my hair, my top priority was getting a cut and colour. I didn’t know my hair was THAT long! How did I survive confinement with such long hair?!

Before getting down to business, Justin and I had a pretty in-depth discussion as to how we should go about achieving the hair colour that I want. Initially, I wanted to try ash colours but Justin informed me that bleaching is required to achieve optimal results. Also, bleaching would cause my hair to become as dry as hay and the aftercare maintenance is not something I think I can afford to invest time and effort in at this point in time. Another push factor is that the colour would probably last only about 2 weeks max, which in my opinion, is not worth the agony of sitting through 10 hours in the salon. We finally settled for 10-FB as the base color and 10-PG as the highlights. I really appreciated that Justin took time to explain, which helped me make an informed decision about picking the final colours for my hair.

As Justin snipped off a few inches of my hair, he could tell that I hadn’t trimmed my hair in a very long time. For a low maintenance mother, I had always thought that long hair is the way to go as I don’t have to keep visiting the salon to trim my hair. Justin taught me that it is important to blow dry my hair thoroughly especially the roots, while it is ok to leave the ends to dry on its own.

The colour for my highlights was applied first and Justin explained that the machine (in the middle photo) used has an ability to distribute heat evenly, thus enabling better colour absorption. Finally, the base colour was applied.

After more than 5 hours, we are done! Thank you Justin!

Stepped out of Kenjo Salon with smooth and silky hair!

Justin reminded me to use colour shampoo and try not to use hot water to wash my hair if possible. This is supposed to help hair colour last longer. I totally love how my new hair color looks under the sun!

Once again, a big thank you to Justin and Kenjo Salon! Quote “MISSUSCHEWY” and get 15% off your first visit at Kenjo Salon! Call 62388083 to make an appointment!

Headlines Hairdressing: Mucota Dyna Treatment Perm Review

Posted on July 27, 2015 by missuschewy

– Sponsored Review –

I did something to my hair recently! Readers who have been following my blog would know that I have had long straight hair for years. Truth be told, I’m getting quite sick of my hair already. After our wedding photoshoot in late 2012, the hubs asked me a few times to perm my hair because he liked the “big waves” look on me. LOL. However, I was afraid that I would end up with small tight curls and look like lao auntie so I procrastinated for quite long. A couple of weeks ago, I decided to take a leap of faith because I wanted to look different (in a better way) as I turn a year older this week! Made an appointment with Charles of Headlines Hairdressing who previously did the Mucota Dyna Argan Oil Treatment for me. Look at my hair! Still amazingly smooth and silky! 🙂 Charles helped to trim my hair first before working his magic!

This time, Charles recommended me the Mucota Dyna Perm Treatment. After getting my hair washed, Charles applied the Dyna treatment cream on my hair. If you have not read my previous post, Mucota is one of the top prestigious hair care products in Japan. Dyna is one of their many products which is the latest anti-frizz treatment technology and is 100% NO FORMALDEHYDE. It is suitable for all types of hair, and contains Argan oil which is the key ingredient in giving hair volume, making it smooth and silky. In other words, I was getting a nice hair treatment while my hair was been permed at the same time! Oh ya, my black roots were also touched up. How sweet! 😀

Twirling my hair before putting the curlers up!

Charles explained that as my face shape is round (SOB SOB), he only gave me curls that are below my chin level to avoid making my face look even rounder than it already is.

HEHEHE.

Another type of chemical was dripped over my hair to help the curls stay in shape.

This was how my hair looked like after the hair wash. The first thing I told misterchewy was, “Oh no! How come look like maggi mee?!” HAHAHA.

But heng ah! After blow drying my hair, it turned out wonderful! Loving my big bouncy curls! Price ranges from $280 to $350 depending on hair length. Quote “Charlene Missuschewy” and get at least 10% off all services and treatment! Thank you Charles and the Headlines Hairdressing team! To see how well my new hair is holding up, stay tuned to my posts on Facebook www.facebook.com/missuschewy and on Instagram @missuschewy as I might be posting some photos during our Bangkok trip! 🙂

Beauty Products Used to Achieve My Wedding Dinner Makeup Look

Posted on May 15, 2015 by missuschewy

Hola ladies! We attended our cousin’s wedding at W Singapore late April and I managed to download the instant prints taken by the photographer. Today I’m gonna share a short post which is something a little different from my usual posts, and it’s about my wedding dinner makeup routine! Yayyyyy. Of course I’m no makeup guru but since I put in extra effort to doll myself up for a big occasion, it doesn’t hurt to share photos and the products I used right? 😛

Normally, my mum and I would head off to a salon that we have been visiting near our place for the lady boss to do our makeup and hair. The cost is actually quite reasonable. However, this time I decided to take matters into my own hands. Hahaha sounds so serious. But yeah, I have been reading up about various products and trying them out.

Like I said, I’m not a professional so I have yet to master making my non-existent nose bridge appear out of nowhere but I’m trying very hard. LOL. But I did learn a bit about contouring and stuff. Not easy!

Hahaha pardon the sleepy look. I lost count of the number of glasses of red wine I had that night. *Hic*

These were the products I used. In all honesty, I only use foundation, blusher, and eyeliner on normal days. Haha!

Face:
NARS All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation in Fiji
LA Girl Pro Concealors in Classic Ivory, Warm Sand and Cool Tan
Heroine Make Mineral Smooth Cover Powder in Light Biege
The Body Shop Nomadic Goddess Baked-to-Last Powder Bronzer in Warm Glow

– Media Invite –

Hello chewys! It’s 72 more days to Christmas! And now the question is: Have you been good this year? Haha. Well, it’s not too late to redeem yourself now! Will tell you how you can do so in just a bit 😉 Anyway, Christmas came early for the Singapore beauty bloggers last Thursday, thanks to The Body Shop! We were invited to The Body Shop School Project event which was held at Skyve Wine Bistro. I took a cab from my workplace because it was pouring but the wet weather didn’t dampen my spirits 🙂

Glad to have the company of Michelle that evening! Busy taking photos while waiting for the other bloggers to arrive 🙂

Very cool vanity table!

Special Edition 4-Step Smokey Eye Palettes in Brown and Plum.

Soon, it was time for our Social Studies class, conducted by Headmistress Linda Black. The Body Shop has been supporting education for over 20 years. ‘Giving Joy To Every Body’ is a campaign to bring the gift of education to the rural communities that produce Community Fair Trade loofahs, cocoa butter and other ingredients. This Christmas, The Body Shop Foundation will contribute S$ 400,000 from gift sales to build 5 schools for kids in Ghana, Honduras, Nepal and Northern and Southern India where regular kids and those with special needs have little access to education or have to walk as far as 5km to get to school. With education, their futures will be brighter when they are able to earn a regular income, which will also help to raise their self-esteem, build confidence, and increase their standard of living!

How can you help? Simple! By buying a gift from The Body Shop for those we love, we will also be buying the precious gift of education for those who could really use it!

During Home Economics class, our school prefect introduced us to The Body Shop’s Christmas seasonal special editions namely, Cranberry Joy, Vanilla Bliss and Ginger Sparkle.

The much-loved, delectable Cranberry Joy collection is back for the holidays, so get ready to sweeten your senses and treat your body to a taste of sweet indulgence. This luscious line-up of bath, body and home fragrance treats containing cranberry extract and a raft of skin-beneficial Community Fair Trade ingredients has a mouth-watering fruity fragrance.

Spice it up and be sweet to your body with the most festive, ginger-infused special edition collection ever. With lavish, textures and a warm, spicy fragrance, these indulgent goodies are a feast for the senses.

Makeup artist Peter Khor was invited to perform a step-by-step makeup demonstration on one of the beauty bloggers.

Peter Khor taught us how to achieve the smokey festive look by using The Body Shop’s 2013 Winter Trend Special Edition Collection.

Recess time! Even Gingy the gingerbread man looks ecstatic! 😀

Some finger food and nibbles.

Christmas goodies for the guests who turned up for the event!

During recess break, we queued up for our recyclable bags which could be customized. Really cool!

Time for some yearbook photos with the other bloggers – Jacelyn, Nadia, Jermaine and Michelle! 🙂

By uploading our photos onto Instagram and including the hashtag #tbsgivejoysg we could collect our instant prints within minutes!

I found Gingerbread woman! So cute! Nom nom nom.. Oops! 😛

Colored My Hair RED and PURPLE @ ICON by Shunji Matsuo for our Wedding Photoshoot!

Posted on October 12, 2012 by missuschewy

TGIF chewy chewy friends! By the time you are reading this post, misterchewy and I are probably somewhere high up in the skies, on our way to The Land of Smiles! Yeah, Thailand, that’s right! 😛 We are off to Bangkok to eat, shop, sightsee and enjoy the traditional Thai massage! This short getaway shall be our well-deserved break after our wedding photoshoot on Monday. It was a blardy exhausting whole day affair. Woke up at 7am and reached the studio before 10am. Indoor photoshoot started at around 11.30am and we had a quick lunch before moving off for our outdoor shoot slightly before 3pm. I know some people don’t like to pose for photos but misterchewy and I enjoyed it soooo much! Kinda unbelievable that the photoshoot actually turned out to be very fun! Our photographer (who I think kinda looks like Gary Chaw) was a barrel of laughs and we didn’t feel tensed or uneasy throughout the shoot. In fact, everything went very smoothly! 😀

Just for this shoot, I had to endure my irritating fringe for a few months because I was under the impression that my makeup artist (MUA) can create different hairstyles for me 😛 I never had such long fringe before! It’s around my mouth level now anyway. I also ditched my yellowish highlights in exchange for red and purple hair! 😀 😀 😀 Like I have mentioned before, I like to procrastinate and leave things till the last minute. Finally visited the salon a few days before the shoot, right after I got off from work. Was asking around for recommendations around Holland Village and dear Carrie from The Cambelles told me about ICON by Shunji Matsuo. Total damage was around $550 for two colors and Sherpa treatment. *Heartpain* Had to keep telling myself it’s justifiable for the shoot. Anyway my MUA kept saying the shade of purple is very ‘chio’. *Beams* 😀

I settled for purple because I was sick of having different shades of brown since the first time I colored my hair about 6 to 7 years ago but more importantly, I wanted something wild for our wedding photos 😛 Chose a very dark shade of red to complement the purple because I didn’t wanna attract too much attention. LOL. Haha ya paradox lor I know. >_<

Hubby Chewy knocked off from work and accompanied me for the next 1 hour plus. The panorama photo of the salon was taken by him using iPhone 5! Actually most of the other photos in this post also la.

I don’t know what exactly is Sherpa treatment but I chose it because it was more expensive. Since I’m already spending money, might as well go for the best right? 😛 Besides, my hair needs it! Long hair is very hard to maintain and my hair is very dry at the ends. *sob*

It was agonizing having to sit in the salon for close to 4 hours but I think it was worth it! How to go work like that? Aiya I only colored the inside, somewhere near the back of my neck. Don’t really know how to explain but nevermind.

This is one of our looks for the shoot. Really happy and satisfied with our MUA because he knows exactly what I want! Too many people that we would like to thank – Our photographer, MUA, Katrina from Cold Rock Ice Creamery, The White Rabbit, Hans and Valerie from Backyard@Dempsey, Krist for my nails and also Maureen for helping out during the outdoor shoot. I posted a few sneak photos on our Facebook page www.facebook.com/missuschewy! We might be sharing updates on FB while we are at Bangkok as well, so keep a lookout! 😀

ROM Party Makeover by Ivan Hoo of In Square Salon!

Posted on November 12, 2011 by missuschewy

Before the solemnization party at Symphony Heights, Maureen of misstamchiak.com was really gracious enough to offer me her complimentary hair styling and makeover by Ivan Hoo, Creative Director of In Square Salon. I was initially quite hesitant because I paisey mah. But then again, Maureen is the ‘mai lugi’ queen so I must learn from her. Haha! Just kidding! Anyway, In Square Salon is located at Blk 24 Sin Ming Road. I would say that Ivan is very professional and takes care of little details, like trying to cover up the mole on my cheek as seen in one of the photos 😛 I quite like my overall 造型 even though it took me some time to get used to my (temporarily) curled hair! It was a jaw dropping moment for the husband the moment he saw me. He commented that my face and nose are much sharper. Haha ok thanks I know that my nose is ridiculously flat 🙁 Once again, a big thank you to Ivan and to Maureen for the lovely photos in this blog post! 😀
