My Bench Fix Experience

So it's been months since I wanted to cut my hair short but haven't had the chance to since I've been joining beauty pageants and we know that it's a challenge to style short hair. 

However, I've been seeing a lot of actresses resorting to this kind of hairstyle (Anne Curtis, Kathryn Bernardo, Taylor Swift) and it's like becoming a trend already at syempre magpapahuli ba naman ako? It's like the universe is telling me that I should follow their footsteps. Hehehe

Hairspiration hihihi

I've been eyeing a lot of salons, reading reviews online on which salon I should trust my hair to. I've tried numerous salons in our city but haven't really found one that made me feel satisfied. 

After my boyfriend suggested for me to try Bench Fix at SM, which was the only Bench Fix here in Gensan, I was quite hesitant at first since I don't have any girl friends who have tried there and of course I would like to ask for their feedbacks. Not that I don't trust my boyfriend, but you know, girls, we have different tastes compared to guys.

Suddenly I came across to Bianca Gonzales' tweet. Bench has a new campaign and I finally gave in since I also haven't tried that salon. I'm a lil bit convince with their promo ad.. Hehe

I went to Bench Fix on a weekday around 2 in the afternoon. Luckily, there was just one customer. So I was directed to the haircut area. I met the Senior Stylist, Mr. Jeyson Bastida, who will be cutting my hair. I instructed him my desired length. He offered me to color my hair and I was shown this hair color samples. I didn't agree with the color that he wants to use coz I think it's just the same with my current hair color so I opted for a lighter one. 

That's me waiting for my turn because they only have one stylist at the moment!

This was the result after coloring and blowdrying my hair. Aren't those curls so cute?

Well, I have to say that the coloring part was really hard for me because my scalp was itching and it was too much for me to handle. I don't know what happened because from my previous experiences of coloring I haven't had a similar situation. So just after minutes of putting the solution, my hair was immediately rinsed. Binuhusan ba ako ng sandamakmak na kuto? Naiiyak talaga ako sa kati tehhhh.

Two ate's struggling with my hair because I really have thick hair! I'm sorry! I also asked for full bangs but the stylist didn't agree coz hindi daw bagay so side-swept bangs na lang.

The final outcome! I really love it. I paid 2,100 for the color and the haircut was for free. But the standard price is P185 which is the cheapest price among all other branches. I know I want it shorter but I'm having separation anxiety with my hair. Maybe soon I'll be chopping off more. But for now, that's the shortest I could get. 

So will I come back again? Probably for the haircut but for the hair color, I don't know coz I can't imagine having that itchy feeling again. 

Sobrang vain. Haha feel na feel talaga new look eh.
