I did a daring hair styling few months back to celebrate Chinese New Year. Yeah, it was purple dip-dyed hair and of course, I looked pretty with it. At the same times, I had my bottom hair to be permanent curled and ended up my hair was damaged badly. My hair would get tangled up every morning I woke up and spent at least 5 minutes to untangle my hair. You can find hair at every corner of my room because my hair fell tremendously.
Until one day, I had to chop off my damaged hair and lived on with a shorter hair LOL. Since then, I replaced my conditioner with hair mask and stop washing my hair everyday. Though my hair does not have any split end but it looks dull and dry.
I came to know about ARIMINO from a few blogger reviews and started to show interest on the brand. Japanese brands usually carry good qualities even though with unique and cute packaging. There is a saying whereby good looking stuff has lower quality, right?
As a matter of fact, ARIMINO established 65 years ago in Tokyo, Japan and globalize the hair industry with its professional salon products. The rich ingredients used in ARIMINO products cause as little damage as possible to the hair and thus, providing other essential care for the hair. ARIMINO has won Packaging Designs Award in Japan due to its unique and cute packaging.

As the workshop was carried out in Xixili boutique in Bangsar Village, there was a Perfect Fit Concept Session by Xixili on demonstrating the correct way to wear a bra. On top of that, I found out Xixili does bra alterations at their own factory. I've never know any you could make a bra size smaller LOL. You know, small breasts people like me have a huge problem, neither the cup size too big or the lower bust size too small. So, getting a right bra for yourself is important as a wrong fitting bra can cause your breasts to be distorted.
At the end of the workshop, I FINALLY found the right size for my bra! Though it was a little expensive to buy a Xixili bra, I'd bought it with no hesitation at the very next visit to Xixili outlet in Mid Valley. Lesson learnt: Not every brand has the right size for me, and not every bra can fit me as well.
