#lashes back to black too lol but the colour of my lashes luckily doesn’t effect anything

🌟big-sis!beeb’s comprehensive guide for the pretty bitch lifestyle🌟 salon edition***

now that i’m a hair, lashes, brows, nails ,,, girl, here’s some thoughts

hair:

style: it’s very xtina dirty era (so, basically, its just blonde and black lol) and regard to cut, i have face shaping long bangs and the rest is feathered

upkeep: 

salon; 

once every two months sometimes three if i’m feeling lazy … i quite like the look of overgrown black roots w/ blonde hair 💕  HOWEVER, and this is a big however, this is the only thing where your @ home practice matters more than what they do at the salon, taking level 1 hair to level 10 is fucking gnarly and you have to be ready to deal with it so .. at 

home;

i wash my hair once 1-2x a week bc my hair is naturally v coarse and dry and can handle it, i use the milkshake ‘silver shine’ shampoo and conditioner, my hairdresser gave them to me and they’re amazing, they always make my hair feel super soft afterwards, but honest, anything will work so long as it’s purple and sulphate free!

i olaplex #3 my hair once a week, ik olaplex is a bit controversial but it’s done me rly good BUT i’d generally only recommend it to you if you have severely damaged hair .. if your hair is healthy you don’t need it 😘

almost done lmaooo, i then use the inkey list hair hyaluronic acid, olaplex #6 & 7, and the john frieda frIzzzease (literally have been using this since i was like 16) and put them all in my ends and use a tangle teaser to distribute it all over, and last but not least i use the bumble and bumble ‘illuminated blonde’ leave in

as you can see, you need to be on your a game with it bc having blonde hair is high maintenance and it’s a lot but i genuinely enjoy taking care of my hair, it gives me an excuse to practice self-care, so, i love it! 🥰

price: this is by far the most expensive part of the pretty bitch lifestyle … the initial appointment cost £130 and then the follow ups for scalp bleach and toning and so on are like £50+ so yk … not to mention the price of all my lotions and potions but like i said, idm so 🤗

!! having asian hair, i MUST insist if you wish to have your hair coloured and have level 1 hair like me, GO TO THE FUCKING SALON otherwise you’ll fucking wreck your hair …. pls … you don’t know the damage you cause to your hair at home … ik #fight #the #man but for the love of all tht is pure pls go get it done professionally … leave it to the professionals !!

dying my hair has been the most ‘impactful’???lmaoo on my life like … i genuinely think it’s changed my appearance yk? like i feel like bc i’m blonde my skin look so much healthier lolllll and like … i deffo have a attitude problem now 💁🏼‍♀️ JOKING … am i- but i’m adjusting into being a blonde nicely 💓

need: 8/10 .. it’s nice to have someone else wash my hair lmaoooooo

lashes:

style: i get mega volumes with colour (the colours match the colours i used to have in my hair, i’ll probz go back to black soon lol)

upkeep: once every 2 weeks

price: £55 for a new set & £35 per infill

i first got lashes for my cousin’s wedding as, tho i do love fake lashes, @ the time my mental health couldn’t handle dealing with putting on fake lashes every day (as at tht point this is what i was doing,,, the high maintenance life chooses you) anyway, so i got my lashes done for first time and … i rmbr as i was having my makeup done for said wedding, the mua said i’d become addicted and i brushed it off like nOoo … she was right, i am addicted ,,, AND I LOVE THEM 😍😍😍😍

however, one thing i need to mention which i don’t think ppl talk abt enough is pls do your research as just bc someone looks good on ig doesn’t mean they’re all tht and a bag of crisps irl .. as it took me being lashed by 3 frogs (kinda.. lol) to meet my beloved queen and now … my lash tech is also one of my fav ppl and is always willing to bring my vision to life 💘 but, 1. the first lash tech i was supposed to have triple booked me and two other girls by mistake and then acted like everything was fine and thought a ‘discount’ would make me go back to her … it was a waste of my time and energy, 2. was effective, fast, affordable but the viBeS were off and for my sag moon.. vibes are important to me as i don’t want to sit in utter discomfort for 45 mins … 3. was an old friend of mine so i had high hopes BUT … IT WAS A DISASTER.. she glued my eye shut and then had to rip my bottom lashes to open my eyes … it was a horror of an experience; which reminds me when having your lashes done, through out the experience.. NEVER OPEN YOUR EYES OR IT WILL BURN !!!

need: 100000000/10 ,,, i love having my lashes done beyond words ,,, lashes literally make me feel so amazing and i love how i can literally wake up with big fuck off lashes 🤩

brows:

style: i get my brows laminated, tinted & waxed

upkeep: once every 6 weeks; this one for me requires the least upkeep as since i dye my eyebrows myself anyway, sometimes i forget to go and i only rmbr when my eyebrows are being particularly annoying and then i book an app. lmao but it’s the one tht is least maintenance for me

price: £35

before my cousin’s wedding, i’d never gotten my brows done … ever .. so it was a a new experience… but it taught me i like the feeling of being waxed (just my face ,,, fyi) lmaoooooo, anyway;

need: 2/10 … my tech is amazing and lovely, it’s just something i don’t think is crazy necessary in my life ,,,

nails:

style: builder gel with detailed nail art

upkeep: once a month, my nails grow fast but i cba going every 2 weeks and i also don’t mind seeing my cuticle growth lmao

price: £35+

i like nail tech hopping around my town and seeing what everyone can offer so i usually never go to same place twice, though i love the look of xxl long acrylics, my virgo sun won’t let me give into temptation so i bought some press ons to allow me to live out my dream (you will see them when i finish designing them 😌) w/o ruining my nails, speaking of, i get builder gel as i have p decent natural nails and don’t rly care for acrylic & the damage it causes and i like having different funky styles, rn i have coloured french tips with auras and gems !

for those who dk, builder gel is a thick gel that’s put on top of your nails and its just infilled every time, the thickness of the gel allows your own natural nails to grow in strength and length in peace, in my experience, it isn’t damaging at all unlike acrylics … the thought of the damage tht acrylics cause makes me cringe 😖😖😖

need: 4/10 .. i’ve never had a bad experience aA, it’s just i don’t rly think it’s a necessity in my life and ik tht once my nails get to a certain length, i’ll get bored and stop lol
