Wearing Our Color Proud

So last Sunday, I went with Kaye, our lucky winner, to Philippe Tordjman Le Salon at Sofitel Philippine Plaza to have our hair colored.

You know that my hair is colored but you probably don't know that I've never had it professionally done before. I am too much of a cheapskate and a DIY-er that I believe I can achieve that perfect hair color without going to the salon. Well, I have proven that I indeed can pull off a decent hair color but really, it is always better to trust your hair with professionals. On the one hand, it was Kaye's first hair coloring session so she was really excited-- we both were!

After quite a long consultation with the colorists (we had so many questions!), we finally settled on what we wanted to go for. Since my hair color is still nice and intact, the colorist suggested I get highlights. Kaye went for an ash brown shade with highlights.

We look so goofy in this photo! Oh, the things girls go through for beauty!

I really loved that there was a consultation before the treatment. I know that there are people who know exactly what they want when it comes to hair color but not me. I want it to look natural to actually blend in my features, not stand out. My only goal when it comes to coloring my hair is that I get it to match my brown eyes. That is why I was really excited to try L'Oreal's Wear Your Color Proud campaign because that is exactly what they wanted to achieve-- find that perfect hair color that would enhance your features and show the most beautiful you.

As you can see in the right photo, my hair is actually already brown so there's not much they had to do with it. I would like that it be lighter though and have a bit more depth, so my colorist suggested highlights. After around two hours in the salon, we were done!

Ta-dah! I am so happy with how my hair turned out! The colorists were also very pleased with it that while they were blow drying my hair, they kept telling me how the color suits me. The photo do not give it justice, I tell you! It's so much prettier in actual. I have yet to take a photo under sunlight, I'm betting it's so much more beautiful under the sun/natural light.

Thank you so much L'Oreal for giving us beautiful hair! A big shout out to the team at Philippe Tordjman Le Salon! You guys are the best! Thank you for treating us well and for being so patient with us.
