Hello hair...

So I got my hair re-touched today. After months of dazing with streaks of highlighted white hair. And no I didnt have that granny chic-most-sought-after-look on.. Mine was more of those uban serabut dikepalaku..

Rambut beruban

Yes...With being in my 20's have far been left behind... 

It wasn't all that bad actually. 
I still had those brown-blonde ombre on half of the other ends.. 
From my last color change some where in October last year.. 
But the set of my new grown hair is like alamak...  
depressing nye to look at. 

Nasib ada JoJo Anton our Director stylist at Hairkunst.  
One of our must-go-to-hairdresser-loved-by-owh-so-many. 
The person responsible in making this old mama relived today... 
Ehcehcehceh ;P

So after an hour and a half of hair wash,
color application, treatment and a quick blow 
by Jojo & Kak Fitri... 

Mummy all set! 

No more grey hair :)

Bak kata iklan fofolur.. 
"Tiada lagi rambut putih. Terima kasih Jojo Anton!"

So there you go. A sneek peek to my rebrand shiny-byebye-grey-hair by Jojo Anton of Hairkunst. 

Ps we gonna kicked off a fantastic promo soon. Its all about that manageable silky shiny hair.. Make sure to follow our Instagram & Facebook so u won't missed out.

Till then....

Best hair salon in KL?

Question..... Dalam setahun berapa kali uols memanjakan rambut di salun rambut? Buat treatment... warnakan... luruskan.. kerinting atau sekadar wash and blow? 

Why so many question???? some must say... Macam makcik-makcik sibuk kepochi nak tahu semua kan... :) 

Well the thing is.. post harini sebenarnya adalah post promote diri sendiri.. teehaaaa

ie a quick introduction to a salon owned by selebriti Hair Expert - Bambang Soteto,  kakaknya Endang Soteto and myself Amy Kamal... Dan semestinya bila promote haruslah claim diri sendiri as the best hair salon in Kuala Lumpur kan... 

Hairkunst salun,  The Curve, Mutiara Damansara.... :)

Me and Bambang with Vbuzz host during a short interview for Astro

So whats the rave about Hairkunst ni? Haaa... meh makcik nak story....

Hairkunst awalnya dimulakan oleh Bambang Soteto pada tahun 2007... 

Uniknya kisah how my partner started in this industry.. He was once a Chemical Engineer graduate turned professional hairdresser..... macam tak logic je bunynya kan... But ya.. that was the starting point...

Semuanya bermula ketika Bambang melanjutkan pelajaran di dalam bidang kejuruteraan di German where he was just a coffee boy di salun rambut di Mannheim untuk mencari duit saku lebih... Maklumlah bukan murah nak menyara diri di negara Eropah kan. Especially sebagai seorang pelajar..  

Bermula dari situ.. dek kerana kagum melihat pelanggan keluar masuk dengan rambut cantik kepok kepok.. Bambang nekad belajar cara-cara mendandan rambut daripada majikannya ketika itu.. Kicking off as an assistant... Bambang memulakan hari-hari seterusnya sebagai tukang gunting sambil-sambil menuntut di university as an engineering student... 

His journey continue apabila dinaikan pangkat ke stylist, junior stylist, senior stylist dan akhirnya sebagai trainer di beberapa salun terkemuka sekitar Eropah - Germany, United Kingdom dan Vienna. 

Berbekalkan pengalaman ini lah Bambang pulang ke tanah air dan membuka salun  Hairkunst - A German word which then translate The art of hair styling. 

10 years fast forward...Hairkunst kini berjaya menempatkan jenamanya setaraf nama-nama salun antarabangsa dengan pelangan tetap yang terdiri daripada pelbagai golongan masyarakat dan bangsa - cina, melayu, india. Hinggakan mat dan minah saleh pun ramai... One of the best salon in KL? Of course lah uols! :) 

Selain itu hairdresser Hairkunst sering turut serta dalam behind the scene for local and international tv program seperti Mentor, Akademi Fantasia dan SupermodelMe SIren to be named a few... 

Behind the scene Supermodel Me Siren

So.. Apa bestnya buat rambut kat Hairkunst ni?

Teknik sentuhan rambut berciri Eropah 

First and foremost.. Mestilah teknik yang digunakan... Kesemua pendandan rambut di Hairkunst mempraktikan teknik dandanan bercirikan Eropah. Terutama Haircut dan Color.. The two must do at Hairkunst. Teknik-teknik ini diturunkan dan diajar oleh Bambang sendiri... So rest assure you know you're in good hands everytime you're with Hairkunst team of expert.

Precise is the key word

Sistem temujanji by appointment

Di Hairkunst pelanggan kebiasaanya akan membuat temujanji terlebih dahulu. Ini bagi memastikan  a one to one consultation dengan stylist pilihan. Style rambut seseorang akan di analisa terlebih dahulu with few key factor - lifestyle, bentuk muka, texture rambut asal dan warna kulit. Kemudian barulah akan diberikan sentuhan ajaib for that fab hair customised just for u.. 

consultation is a must di Hairkunst

Matrix dan GHD

Hanya produk berkualiti digunakan bagi memastikan dandanan dan pengayaan yang sempurna.. Produk Matrix dan alat dandanan GHD.. The two favorite hair must have listed by the Hollywoods can both be found here. 

Dekorasi berkonsep 'Homey" 

Spans across 1455 sq ft. Salun Hairkunst is located on second floor, The Curve, Mutiara Damansara.. Betul-betul atas Waroeng Penyet... Disini tersedia ruang menunggu dengan sofa dan meja, 8 kerusi dandanan rambut, wifi percuma, minuman ringan, bilik tertutup untuk mereka yang inginkan privasi bagi memastikan keselesaan pelanggan.

Sekeping Serendah

Sekeping Serendah Warehouse

I had the privilege of spending a night at Sekeping Serendah recently with our team as a token for their fab performance over Ramadhan and Lebaran.

The gang was given options of places to choose from for a short mid week company getaway to bond and destress.

Sekeping Serendah warehouse 2 selected

Didnt know what to expect, we gathered at 12pm on the day of travel and left the building in 2 cars packed with 11 pax, sufficient food and bbq supplies for one night stay.

From Damansara drove via LDP down to Sg Buloh and interchange to NKVE heading to Rawang.

Waze direction was 90% accurate and took a good 1 hour and a half to reach. 

First impression WOW

The retreat is a definite one of a kind.

Set passed kampung orang asli, backdrop by forest and jungle, the Warehouse 2 brings a refreshing option.

No its not a 5 star hotel where you could easily hail for buttler or room service.

Yet, with its minimalist deco, functional amenities and ability to overnight with the sound of nature in a more comfortable setting is a definite win!

Forget about watching tv or browsing facebook or instagram on your mobile cause phone reception is pretty poor to some and non existent to me.

Instead take this opportunity to enjoy leisurely walk to a refreshing waterfall spot. (20 min by foot from Sekeping Serendah) Swimming in an infinity pool surrounded by the nature, team up with a group of friends or family members for some good bbq dinner before hours of chit chatting filled with laughter, card games and acapella singing at minimal interruption.

Will I return? A definite yes!

Its an experience I wont mind repeating

Useful Tips to consider

1. Make sure you come full prepared with food, drinks, cigarette supply as the nearest shop/restaurant is 15-20 min away by car.

2. Come with an open mind - Its an experience like no other.

3. Please remember to bring black coffee! if you are a coffee drinker like me. They provide only packet milo and 3 in 1 coffee. Ive missed out on bringing some. sigh

4. Bring towel and toiletries as its not provided.

5. Prepare some games or trivia to play with friends or family.

6. There's sufficient electic plug if you need to charge phone, put up speaker or even use a hair dryer.

7. Arrive early (check in time is at 2pm) so you have sufficient time to unpack, prepare some meal before heading down to nearby waterfall area

8. MUST DO - walk to waterfall

9. My opinion Warehouse 2 layout at Sekepeing Serendah are not very suitable for younger kids due to its location in the forest and layout of the rooms/space.

10. Plan the trip with closed friends or loved ones and just have fun!
