KENJO x KIM

Grad-night Party with my Cali Gals - celebrating 4 years of giggles 
May's been a pretty fruitful – especially now that school is over and all *YES! 4 years in uni, finally concludes my 16 years in our local education system! Every local student would be able to identify immediately with the trying times (read: dark years) we share – hectic schedules, late nights, occasionally sprinkled with happier giggle-filled moments. You could describe those 16 years juggling school, work, and frequently-changing priorities with one word – “busy”. Yet this, I know, has a very different description of the “busy” fully-adulted Singaporeans would be familiar with. Time is something which I think we learn to use better as we age. And I’d still like to believe, as I have through the years, that busy is always good :)

Work-wise, I've had a few interesting shoots this month – including one which involved a human-flatlay! Either way, while it’s fun to get dolled up with different hair and make up, and try looks I’d never otherwise know or think about trying, the end-effects do have an accumulative negative effect on my hair. You name it, my hair’s been through it – teased, Mohawk, crimped, curled, straightened, bleached, back-combed double over – sometimes a combination of the above, in one sitting! I like to drop by trusty Kenjo Salon to fix me when things get out of hand.



A month ago, we did the Tokyo Inkarami Treatment which had splendid results but this round, we switched things up by alternating with the good ol' Mucota Scena Plus treatment.

Throwback to when things got steamy!
What's more - I had Richard Branson's 'The Virgin Way' - for company, before walking out with a big blowout ;) 

MUCOTA Scena Plus Treatment
The Mucota Scena Plus treatment aims to invigorate your hair follicles and give you the dream hair you’ve always seen in the gloss. Be prepared for things to get steamy – powered by nano technology, this steam-gun goes all over your crowning glory for more effective absorption of the Mucota serum. The main benefit of this is that it doesn’t just soften everything for a silky finish – the technology restores and protects the hair by replacing nutrients our hair lacks. So imagine your dried hair stands, thirsty and just waiting to absorb all that Mucota goodness. The three steps go like this:
1.           Adel: Moisture
2.           Brava: Intensive Hair Repair
3.           Calore: Lustre Protection and Seal
(Nuff said, hey?) You can only imagine the immense happiness I had when I’d an early call-time the next day for a photoshoot; and the last thing I’d want was to present myself with lousy dried tired hair. This treatment definitely saved the day (read: the shoot). Can’t wait for you to read all about it – I’ll keep you posted <3
 
Hair-raising Experience? Justin didn't look too pleased - so I decided to cheer him up. (See next pic)
Now, no-BUNNY's got time for being anything but happy!
Here's a happy Super-Stylist Justin who'll fix you up.
In the meantime, don’t wait any longer – get in touch with Kenjo Salon, book an appointment with Senior Stylist Justin T and be the happy girl or boy you know you should be! Tell the good folks at Kenjo that we’re buddies and enjoy 15% off services.

MUM'S DAY THIS MAY X KENJO


April marks the 6th month since KENJO Salon took over care for my hair -- trusting KENJO has easily been the best decision made for my crowning glory in all my years.

My hair has seen much brighter, lighter days since beginning with the specialised services offered at KENJO, the official MUCOTA Concept Store.

Always time for a celebratory cake! Big love to the lovely team!
Under Senior Stylist Justin's charge, my hair's been refreshed with the organic range of Mucota Hair Colours, nourished with the Olaplex treatment, and today, we're celebrating 6 months together with a lux Japanese treatment called Tokio Inkarami.

MUCOTA all natural hair colour range

Tokyo Inkarami Travel Set


More about the Tokio Inkarami Treatment:
-Focuses on improving hair texture
-Strengthens hair
-Gives a shiny and soft finish

The Tokio Inkarami treatment consists several steps - but its complexity was filled with much entertainment along the way!


Think - a semi-facial steam that came with the Nano-spritz using minerals to lock in the first step.

Followed by a keratin-endowed solution, that's locked in with a hair massage - heard of that? Only at KENJO~
Finally, everything is sealed in with a hair mask which is extra comfortable because of the warm pat-in my stylist does. When I get back to my seat, there's a warm towel massage -- perfect to soothe out the muscles I've been stretching out at the gym the past few weeks!


[PROMOTION – MAY 2017]
In celebration of Mothers' day this May, KENJO has a special for you and your mum! For the entire month of May, bring your mum for services and enjoy special rates - mum gets 50% off on all ala carte services and you enjoy 15% off on your first time here.

KENJO x KIM


Very quickly, we’re approaching the end of February 2017 and I must say that in the past 3 months that Kenjo Salon’s taken over management of my hair – it’s improved way and beyond my wildest dreams. The past 3 months have seen me go from long hair, to a shoulder length cut, before reaching the chic bob that rests upon my head at the moment – and I couldn’t be happier to know that my hair’s in the best care possible. At the moment, all past bleach work has been trimmed off – gone are the days of dry, split ends, that broke off mid-way. We’re talking about well-nourished, soft, silky, healthy hair now.

I checked-in at Kenjo on Thursday after Valentine’s and decided it was fine time to go shorter and sharper. I’d seen how well Senior Stylist Justin handled my hair – he gave me his signature chic bob cut – which was just about growing out to graze my shoulders. This time, Justin got all of my trust and we went shorter – think: aligned with my jawline. Admittedly I got a little worried as Justin zipped away – but once the full blowout was done – it was just razzlin and dazzling!




Justin updated my colour with a Dark Ash Copper Blonde from Davines, finishing off with an Olaplex touch. You know how when you get a fresh colour, you look kind of weird? None of that right here – I immediately fell in love with the shade – it’s so natural, and exactly what I’d always wanted, but missed. Colour-mixing really isn’t an easy thing! So get on down to the only Official Mucota Concept Store in Singapore – tell them you’re a buddy of mine and they’ll set you up with Senior Stylist Justin with a 15% buddy discount!

KENJO x Kim


The merriest month of all is finally here – it’s almost like as if I live for December. Why? Everyone’s heart gets light, the malls begin playing Christmas carols, it gets windier round home, and … food (nuff said). With all that, come parties, year-end get-togethers and celebrations.

I’m always glad to have my dream team at Kenjo Salon to get me all prepped and primed for these occasions. We’ve been working on improving the condition of my hair after all those bleach works from past hair shows – so a fresh colour has been something on my wishlist for a very long time. I never considered adding more harsh chemicals to my hair after all the damage caused in the past. And more so, after seeing how soft and nourished my hair has gotten since Kenjo began taking care of it.

Then came the photoshoot - December is quite a busy period with more shoots and events. So I’d a booking for a shoot with my all-time favourite magazine, Her World, this Friday. I’d be so sad to go for it with my roots showing, and splashes of varied colour from hair-jobs-past all showing up on the end results would be a serious no-no. A fresh hair colour was definitely something that needed to be done. I discussed this with my stylist, Justin, and he had me all sorted out. Justin set me up with an all-natural, organic hair colour from the Mucota range called Paralux Forest! 



This was near-magic for me. I’ve been using the Mucota Aire-light range of shampoo and treatment since Kenjo Salon introduced it to me, and continuing on with the same range just seemed right – I knew my hair would be safe under their care.

Justin mixed a colour for me that we agreed would look natural, fresh and suited my skin tone. Now usually girls, we know the drill. Hair colours would almost ALWAYS sting the scalp with uncomfortable burning sensations. I braced myself for it when Justin lathered the colour mix into my hair – but lo’and’behold girlios – there was zero discomfort – ZILCH. I used to cringe when stylists rubbed the colour into my hair – they’d be using rubber gloves to protect their skin from the colour and chemicals – which would mean my scalp was exposed to the same damage right? And don’t get me started on the smell. Yet, this Mucota range of hair colour Justin used had none of that. It had no smell at all, and had no stinging sensation on my scalp. I was so glad~


Next up, Justin locked all that goodness in with an Olaplex treatment to retain the moisture and health of my hair. Then was Justin’s signature chic-bob cut that my hair was in great need for. //edit// Here's the look from my shoot with Her World yesterday! We went for some classic old-Hollywood curls in my bob and minimal make up, focusing on clear skin! I can't wait to check out the final results - stay tuned for more! 



So that’s all folks – treat yo’self. It’s December 2016 - don’t wait any longer to tame your tresses. Walk into 2017 with a brand new look and a healthier crown! Get in touch with Kenjo Salon, book an appointment with Senior Stylist Justin T and be the happy girl or boy you know you should be! Tell the good folks at Kenjo that we’re buddies and enjoy 15% off services.
