FAYE WONG 2011 Concert - Something I Will Never Want To Miss...


2011, another memorable year to me....Faye Wong Concert, a concert I have been waiting since 2004..This time is really special as I brought my daughter Tyan along..lucky she is 6 years old and allowed in...Faye has given me unforgettable memories in my different stages in life.   1999 Concert 1: My dating days;  2004 Concert 2: Married days; and 2011 Concert 3: Family Life.

1999 Concert


It was so cool to know from a friend that she saw us in I-Channel news, a day after the concert...at the minutes 0:33.  She recognized my platinum hair haha...my hubby and my little ones.  I was actually trying to get a hair band to tie my sweaty daughters' hair.  Fated I guess...



Spotted my hair and hubby and Tyan at minute 0:33


Below are some of the video shots I captured from far far away... How I wish I can afford VVIP seats in the future...You know la...last 2 concerts, tickets were for two..now for three wor..So I have to budget budget ar...But thank God I still be able to make it...The concert started at 8pm sharp and; ended also sharp at 10pm.








Most of the  the photos I posted here were from facebook that other fans posted up..Thanks guys...She was so far from us...I couldn't not even took her photos...all photos taken were blurred...

It was really a cool experience...This time the stage production was really good...There were lots of cool lighting, high tech transformation, special effects etc...and Faye changed her attires quite frequently compared to the first and second concert.. The only thing that really had not changed over the years were her styles...I meant, her supercool attitudes..For the whole concerts she only said 4-5 thank you-s.  But this did not make me and hubby lost our concerntration.  She had a very great voice stamina and I did not notice any out of tune during her performances.. She sang about 26 songs if I am not mistaken.  Seeing her as a top superstars amazed me as she owned the stage; and everyone who attended the concerts were touched and amazed by her songs and her cool personality.  If one day I can have the opportunity to touch and cut her hair, it would be really a dream comes true....




























Faye Wong, if you really happen to read this blog...please remember that I would like to cut your hair; no matter how old you are, because you are a great superstars and you always lead us with new hairstyles... I wish one day you will call me up and allow me to give you a great hair cut...P/s My salon phone number with international area code  +006082362788.  Hope to hear from you soon....Guess I am dreaming hah? Dream big, no wrong right....?  Winnie Loo told me once..."DARE TO DREAM BIG!"....


Love Faye always,

Jac

Cheers

Celebrities MakeOver - Crystal Chooi




Toni&Guy, Patent House, Jalan Bukit Bintang, 15th October - 3.30pm 

This lovely Saturday  was indeed a great day for me as I was having a makeover (cut and color) session with local Chinese actress, Crystal Chooi.  It would not have been possible if without the help of  Toni&Guy KL team mates.  Thank you  David Mercer, Henne Mercer and William Wong; not forgetting all the staffs of Toni&Guy KL for making my Saturday an unusual one....

Crystal Chooi came in about 3.30pm and we made sure she seated comfortably in the nice ambiance of Toni&Guy salon on the top floor of Patent House, Bukit Bintang.  Before I started the hair cut, I gave her a thorough consultation, showing her photos from our Look Book...our bible to latest hair styles. This is to ensure that she is fully aware of her new look.





Consultation session


During the consultation, I learnt that Crystal never dare to go very short as worrying that her face may look more round.  With thorough explanation, I shown her few photos that shown her otherwise.  I adviced her to cut  short on both side of the ears but leave her fringe slightly longer; and that she may be surprised that actually the cut will keep her jawline more obvious and her face shape will be sharpen.  Without much hesitation, she gave it a go and agreed to try it out.

After the consultation, Johnny (Assistant at TG shown as picture above) helped me to wash Crystal's hair; preparing her for the cut session.

Crystal's hair was properly section before cut to ensure precision and balance.

After the haircut, I continued with the color session. Again before I proceed, a consultation was been carried out too - checking her lifestyle and work details.  Crystal not only have video shoots but also have formal meetings with clients who needed her expertise in managing new movie or drama production.  So I decided to give her a versatile hair color where she can have a party look and formal look at the same time... ..Crystal's initial hair color is cooper base with few big streak of light blonde.  I decided to give her a matt ash medium brown as her base; with light ash brown highlight.  I took the longest fringe on her right side and did 5 foils of highlight with light ash brown.  It would be a huge streak of ash brown but the fun part was that the highlights hid underneath.

The rest of the hair was glossed with matt brown









Crystal was sleeping haha...I think my brushing technique calmed her? haha..just joking!

Once done, Crystal was led to the wash area to get her hair washed and conditioned.

Blow dry session


After the cut and color session has been done; Crystal attended to my mini-styling 5 minutes course; where she learnt the 1 minute DIY styling techniques with latest Wella Texture Touch clay; and I finished her look with Wella HairSpray.  I was hoping she has learnt it and will use the techniques before she goes to work everyday ;P.  It is super easy!

Yippie..mission accomplished!

I hoped I have given Crystal a more younger and fresh look.  Look closely at her hair color.  With her highlight streak hidden underneath her base color; she can have different hair color; either for party look or for formal look for work.  If she styled her fringe to her right; it shown that her hair color will be just one color which is matt brown - a suitable look for work...However if she styled her fringe to her left as shown in the photo on the right; it shown that her hair was styled for more casual look..

I hope that Crystal Chooi likes her new look...

Cheers!

Love
