Lakme Teknia Drops

Again, another suggestion from Andre, this is Lakme Teknia Drops. A surprisingly light-weighted fluid ( not cream ) to moisture your hair strands.

Oh yeah, thx to my bf who prefers me with straight hair, I broke my promise not to straighten my hair again. But whatever I feel now all I can do is wait for my hair to grow long enough so I can style it again the way I want.

The problem with straight hair is you always find your hair err.. strange. They have no vitality and mostly the enhance your round face feature so your face looks bigger than the actual size. So that's why after I wash my hair with shampoo & conditioner ( I currently use Rejoice's Fruity Smooth combos but I'm still searching for the better ones ) I always blow-dry my hair with my head down so I can add some level to the hair near the roots.

Next thing to take care of is my over-straight hair. I'm not saying Andre's job's not good, in fact his method didn't do much damage to my hair compared to my previous experience in another salon, but I just don't like to see this super-straight tips of my hair. So I use a 1,5 cm barrel-shaped hair curler to help the tips of my hair curl in. Therefore, Lakme's Teknia Drops can protect my hair from the danger of the heat. Always apply it twice, 4-6 drops each turn : 1. Before I blow-dry my hair, 2. Before I curl my hair.

The texture is light, it's colourless with slight strawberry-like smell ( which is better then Goldwell's Kerasilk ) , absorbs to you hair faster & it doesn't make your hair greasy. I just love it.

It's cheaper than Goldwell's Kerasilk. Maybe around Rp 130.000,00 if I'm not mistaken. It's been 3 months since I purchased it and I still have some drops left for 2 weeks. IMO, it's worth repurchasing :)

Goldwell Kerasik Instant Silk Fluid

My hair is doomed. Thanx to my get-bored-easily act, I've managed to torture'em so well.

Haha.. Serem bgt ya? Dibandingkan sama ongkos beli make-up, my addiction to salon & hair products is frightening.

Coloring, perming, straightening, been there done it! Hasilnya? Rambut kering bgt with so many stubborn flyaways shg tekstur rambut g kelihatan.

Dari sekian banyak salon di Surabaya, so far aku cuma jatuh cinta sama 2 salon. Dames Heren di JL. Bawean (but it's gone now. Wonder why? They had the great hair stylists, make-up artists, nice owner with decent price. Not to mention their classic & sophisticated interior designing. Gosh.. I loved that place!) sama yg baru bulan lalu aku coba ( thx to Lizvan again) Andre Salon di JL. Manyar Tirtoyoso No. 91

Satu2nya yg aku harapkan dari sebuah salon adalah, mereka ngga akan ribut mencaci-maki rambutku yang udah hancur ini sehingga kalo potongan mereka gagal, yang salah rambutku, bukan inkompetensi mereka and for God's sake, pls stop offering me you products, dammit! Thank God, both salons have done well for my hair :)

Back to the main talk, I can't leave without leave-in conditioner. Pantene, Dove, L'oreal Elseve couldn't tame my hair. But Andre from Andre Salon introduced me to this product : Goldwell Kerasik Instant Silk Fluid. He applied it to my towel dried hair after he cut it and then blow dry it.

The result was awesome! My hair becomes so smooth, has "live" and no flyaways!

At makeupalley.com it's rated 3.9 from 5 star

Got it for Rp 200.000 ,- worth for 125 ml ( at strawberryNET.com it's USD 21.50 )

Cheaper than Kerastase's Oleo Relax (but I'm keen on trying it later)

Texture was not heavy (Not like Pantene's or L'oreal Elseve Royal Jelly series) and smells nice too :)

Personally, I like to apply it on my towel dried hair before I blow dry it. But when I apply it on my dry hair, it's quite heavy, but it's still ok for me

Anw, it's a great product. I'll repurchase :)
