HBC Giveaway Week 1: Hair Affair (CLOSED)

It's no joke that our hair is our crowning glory.

Why is that when a lady is feeling down, she would go straight to the salon to get a make-over,ne? Most often than not it's got something to do with their hair. There are a lot of reasons, even psychological reasons, but to put it simply it's just because we want to look & feel different,ne?

You know, what,  I am really really curious as to how it feels to have a shaved head. I love having long hair, but i often wonder how convenient it could be if i won't have to tie my hair when i am inside a speeding vehicle with the wind blowing, how you could easily slip on a hat without worrying if your hair will go flat, how i could save money without having to buy shampoos & conditioners every week or so, how it would feel like lying on a fresh, crisp, newly laundered bed sheet....

Am i the only one who is curious about it? I guess i'm not really a traditional filipina when it comes to things like this because my curiosity knows no bounds! haha. But hey, it doesn't mean i would want to give my locks away. I love my curly hair!

Enough about the talk... let's talk about the giveaway!
Unfortunately, this is open only to Phillipine residents. My international readers don't have to wqorry though because i'll be having a giveaway for you some time.

1. Great looking hair for me is the one with soft, silky and manageable hair and not the frizzy one. My unforgettable hair nightmare was during when we attended a party and it happened our car was in the shop for repair. So we need to commute and turned my hair to super buhag-buhag & i can't manage to fix my hair while we're still in the jeepney because i'm carrying my super makulit baby boy. So when we arrived to the place, a friend told me "mahangin ba sa labas?". I was really embarass but instead i went to the comfort room & to make the best out of it I luckily always have HP in my bag and fix my hair nicely. =)

1. Great looking hair is one that is soft, bouncy and natural. Overworked hair, for me, doesn't do it. It does not matter what hair type you have as long as it is clean, soft and free of dry and split ends.

My unforgettable hair nightmare: we've all had the misfortune of running late and not being able to completely dry our hair. I am no exception. When this happens, my hair looks frizzy and poofy.

How I made the best out of it: Aside from my mom telling me that leaving the house with wet hair is unacceptable, it also leaves my hair looking like a tousled mess. In situations like these, I like to loose-braid my hair sideways. This makes for a stylish do and saves you from having a horrible hair day.

great looking hair for me is a frizz free and manageable hair, it must also be strong yet soft and shiny.

My most unforgettable hair nightmare was just a couple of year ago, when i had to attend a wedding of my bf's sister. My improvise overnight curler didn't work so well on my hair overnight leaving it with unruly curls all over, to add to my misfortune, i didn't have time to go to the nearest salon and have it styled.

So, to make the best out of it, while we're on our way to the church, (good thing it was traffic) I spent the whole time fixing my hair by using only a facial moisturizer as an improvise hair cream, a rubber bands (praying it won't break) and bobby pins (good thing i always have these on my purse) viola! the result, a messy sexy updo hollywood style :) and ready to party.

1. My most unforgettable hair nightmare is when Once, I came in late in the office and my hair is still wet and tangled. Then it was announced that we will have a presentation with the bosses in 30 mins. So aside from cramming for the presentation, I know that I should look good to impress and I turned it around by putting on a leave-on conditioner to keep my hair manageable and great looking
