My Braces Journey 01

Hello everyone!!

I guess most of you would have know by now...

and yep...

I've embarked on my journey to straighter teeth!

Super super happy choosing this path.

Even though initially i started this journey cause of some nasty comments online...

hehehe

but i'm glad i followed their suggestions hahaha

I believe part of them really meant for my good... part of them are just purely nasty

hahaha

Here are some photos of WHY I DON'T LIKE MY TEETH

Other than my horrendous double chin, i hate my teeth the most...

like protruding too much!!

I often get comments like...

i think you look nicer when you don't talk at all...

oh wells.... one of the reasons might be because I talk a lot of rubbish and i think that totally spoil my image...

the other reasons... i believe is my teeth

hahahaha

And even the artist in Korea managed to capture my UNIQUENESS

hahaha

one tooth

sooo.....

I've decided...

i really don't want the candid photos of my wedding photo to look like these...

so i NEED to get my teeth done!

(and diet to get rid of my double chin of course)

My teeth

I always thought i've got overbite cause it looks like it in the photos...

but... after consulting different dentists, they concluded that i've got no overbite.. it's just that my lower row of teeth hides toooooo inside...

=.=

i wanted to do braces for overbite but end up correcting something different..

initially i wanted my lower row to stay as it is... but....

ends up, they are the ones that requires most help

hahahaha

i chose CERAMIC braces as i'm vain.

also, my lower row was too messy for invisalign plus they are really expensive!! >.<

Ceramic costs about $5500. I paid $2200 up front and the rest will be by installment (every visit $150)

I don't need to extract any tooth

which is a sad news to me cause i heard most people slimmed down their face a lot cause they plucked out teeth... 

I ALSO WANT SMALLER FACE!

 

put in spacers straight after consultation as i don't wanna wait any longer!

 

Worst timing everrr~~~

Cause on the following day, we went to bali to feast!

SPACERS HURT!!

a week after my bali trip, i went back to the dentist to get my braces!!

OMG OMG OMG~

 

 

 Bleeding after cleaning >.<

URGHHH i hate cleaning

 

and tada~~!!

braces!!!

and miracle happened...

one day after having them on....

my upper row straighten up!!

as compared to...

i didn't expect it to be soooo fast!!

and then i started to bear hope that i will be able to remove my braces within 6 months~

hahahaahaha

totally forgot that my bottom row is reallly really stubborn

totally no change in the first month hahaha

and currently, on my 4th month....

 

 The bottom row straightens up!

heheheheheeheh

JIAYOU!! faster faster!!

 

upper row still super duper straight

 

and right now..

though i don't feel any changes to my face shape.

my side profile is less "overbite" cause my lower row comes out~

weeeheeee

that's all for the my braces update!!

Next time i wanna put coloured ligatures hehehe

 

btw, in case you're wondering why sometimes my braces is white..

it's because i coated them white so they blend better!

coloured them white for the event! hehe

can't tell from here

hahaha

 

[Hair] Update on new hair color!

Hello hello!

Sorry for the lack of updates!!

Omg i've got so many to post..

but first..

let me update my new hair! just in case, i start posting other posts and you will be like.......

WHO'S THIS!?!

hahaha

kidding kidding...

Yes yes!!

I've changed my hair colour to DARK DARK ASH!

hehehee

although i do miss my light hair but i love rocking this dark ash too!

======================

Okay..

now that i look at my previous hair colour, it looks too ordinary ?

hahaha it's kinda weird that right now.. i see BLACK as something not so ordinary!

everyone is with coloured hair now! It's just as usual as seeing someone without circle lens! hahaha

 bye bye boring hair color~

 YEP! this time round....

I've tried a new color brand at Jerry's!

It's MUCOTA color series~~

Mucota is famous for their hair treatment and now that they are having color series, i'm sure a lot of girls would be thrilled!!

so... what's so different??

According to the brochure, they are less damaging and they give a shiny coat to your colored hair~

Damaged hair and healthy hair has got different polarity... The hair dye will be attached more to the healthy hair than to the damaged hair, thus ensuring that there will be even color on your hair. This also ensures that there will be less harm to your already damaged hair!

GENIUS sia~~~

What's more cool~~~~

it's that...

they've got A LOT OF COLOURS~

wheeee~~

 For non-bleached hair.

and....

ahem ahem....

*drum roll*

FOR BLEACHED HAIR....

 SOOOO MANY COLOURS!!

 OMG SO PRETTY!!

I want grey / lavendar~~~

but in the end, i decided to go for darker colour.

It's ashy dark grey!

However, I have to be really honest...

As my hair is really damaged, it took 2 application for the colour to be adsorbed into my hair..

(remember the damaged hair will absorb less coloring agent! And it's true!! My roots got the  beautiful exact colour that i want after one application!)

Thus, if you want to try mucota, i would recommend you to consult JERRY first...

He would assess your hair condition and recommend you the best solution to your hair!

 

Nevertheless, even though i need 2 applications......

my hair is still super smooth with mucota~

hehehehe

Doesn't feel as damaging as other hair dyes.

Super love that the ends are greyish in real life~

hehehehe

I think i will stick with this dark colored hair for quite some time!

it's dark but it's not boring!

hehehee

It has got this ashy tone in it that makes it look special!

Ohh well...

i always trust my hair color to Jerry

especially when my hair is so damaged, I don't dare to leave it to others!

Had a few experiences with different salons (I think i deleted the post but if some of you might remember), either they didn't managed to get the colour i want or they just damaged my hair further...

like barbie doll hair that kind of elasticity...

=.=

so...

Jerry is my number 1 go to guy for hair color..

hahaha
