Just this week, I went to a local salon and got my roots done and the lengthen of my hair lightened to more of a platinum blonde. The salon has an academy which you can get the students to perform the same services but at a reduced price but they get to learn and you are supporting students and a local business. I also got a trim on my bangs and ends of my hair!

My early-morning breakfast....:
Basically, I got my roots done first which took about 1.5hrs. The salon gal used Volume 5 on my roots and later, 10 on the length of my hair before toning.
I also got a shampoo and treatment in there, plus toning!! I've never felt so relaxed....!!!!!!
The final look:
I got Starbucks afterwards and a cinnamon bun:

[Review] Sheet Mask Shenanigans: Tony Moly I'm Real Pumpkin Mask Sheet Anti-Aging vs. Mediheal Pumpkin Ade Sheet Mask [Comparison]
11:26 PM
Hello, all!! I thought I'd write up a comparison review of two masks that share a common themed ingredient: pumpkin. I'll be comparing the new Tony Moly I'm Real sheet mask, in Pumpkin (Anti-Aging), to Mediheal's Pumpkin Ade Sheet Mask, and to contrast their differences.

Hello all! This is a long awaited review of Sana's Hadanomy Collagen Mist!
Over the months since purchasing last summer, I've been using this collagen infused mist whenever my face feels like it needs a boost or moisture; at night, or just after a shower, so much so that I honestly forgot to write up my thoughts about the spray (before I ran out of it!). Read more thoughts under the cut!

Usually when I do road trips, it'll be just a day trip but this time, we stayed overnight--mostly because of traffic reasons.
Earlier that afternoon, we had stopped at a French patisserie but I forgot to take photos until this moment!
Cream cheese danish, ever so slightly caramelised on the top:
I picked up some lunch...it was ok. The curried rice was a good concept in theory, but in reality, it was kinda gross. It would've been better as a hot rice dish instead of cold. The meatballs were ok, but the most exciting part was the cactus water!
I ordered a jasmine milk tea with boba--basic, but so good.
Later, I did hit up Uwajimaya.
When I walked in, an episode of Nyanchu was playing on the TV near the front-ish of the store, featuring Golden Bomber's Kenji I really love Golden Bomber--both Kenji and Kyan are my faves but I love all four's antics--but it was a surprise to see it! Also AB related, because snails!
Picking up some snacks and stuff...

Also my #ootd :
Did some more shopping while kind of slowly heading back home--I forgot to take pics!
Some beautiful pastries and cakes:
At some point, we quickly stopped by Powell's Books, because I was trying to find a book. They didn't haven it but I did happen scoop up some good Pokemon--there is a Pokestop just at the entrance of the bookstore.
I did spot these oddities, regretting not buying them:
tea bar
I stopped by a tea place called Tea Bar. It was so hot that day, I felt like my feet were going to melt if I had stayed outside any longer! The sun was awfully bright--thank god for sunglasses!
The interior was so low-key; I loved their clean, simple aesthetic.

I love Taco Bell's older 90s aesthetics....!!
Goodnight!
