Tony and Jackey

“In Hairness”

            I’ve always loved my natural straight and silky hair. I get lots of compliment about it and it’s actually one of my greatest assets. But there have already been lots of times that I tried to cut it and experiment with styles just because I’m bored with my hair being “bagsak”. I would always love the result right after I get out of the salon, but after days and weeks, I usually regret that I let my hair be cut. Still bored with my hair, I just tried to grow it longer and curl it with a curling iron. One day, I came to school with a curly hair and a lot commented that I look better. So I did try to curl my hair everyday but I had to wake up early because the process is not easy and it is quite damaging to the hair. So, I came up with an idea of getting a perm since I see a lot of girls in the university who had their hair permed too and they really look pretty. I was hearing about Tony and Jackey Salon from my friends. They said they are experts in styling and they are in promo that time. So, I searched for T&J’s website immediately and browsed for promos on digital perm. They had really low prizes so from that time on, I already made up my mind. I also searched for their facebook site and there I found the same information plus aswers to their customer’s queries. Many people comment on the page and they are pleasingly answered and accommodated. I also tried to comment just to see if out of the stream of comments from people everywhere, they will notice my simple question about prices. The next day, I get a notification from Tony and Jackey giving me the information that I need. Overwhelmed, I decided to push through with the perming.

            I went for Tony and Jackey Cubao branch since it’s the nearest to our house. I was one of the first customers of their salon so everyone greeted me warmly. After a few waiting, the girl at the counter introduced a Korean stylist to me. She’ll be the one to do my hair. I have the look I want in mind but I don’t know what type of curl I need because it ranges from small, medium and large. Good thing they have high-tech computers infront of every customer seat wherein, you can browse pictures of the style you want. I then showed her what I want to happen to my hair but I also have other requests like start the curls at the neck level and many more but because she’s Korean, we cannot communicate well. So, I just gave her the freedom to do what she wants to do to my hair as long as it will look good. It took us 4 hours inclusive of haircut, treatment, curling, and heating. But the result was not what she expected it to be and I had no Idea because my hair is still wet. It should have been medium but it became big curls she said. Maybe because I have virgin hair. So she talked to my mom and told her that the process will be repeated but for free. We accepted since it’s free. I stayed for another four hours and in the end, it was all worth it because I got my curls and I loved how I looked after the process. Morever, I was convinced to buy a hair lotion to keep the curls looking good and it was expensive. Anyway, I am not thinking of how much I spent anymore, I get the value that I want: to look pretty with my curly hair without the hassle of waking up everyday for a curling iron session. Hihi :”>
