Scalp Problems and Solutions

Almost everyone today are plagued by scalp problems be it temporary or permanent.  And also the causes of scalp problems are often many, if not unavoidable given the fast paced environment we are in.


Scalp problems are divided into 3 categories, hair loss, oily scalp and dandruff.  Although there are many solutions to scalp problems in the market today, but lets break it down to something that we can understand better and seek the proper solution to help us reduce and or delay the effects of scalp problems.  


Here are some information from ALFAPARF Milano on their take on the scalp issues facing our modern day consumers.













We would also like to inform everyone that we are doing a special tie up with ALFAPARF Milano for their scalp treatment packages whereby you will get a Home Maintenance Kit worth RM 60 for every RM 480 scalp package signed at the salon.  The packages are for 6 treatments.

Donations for Agathians Shelter in collaboration with Friends and Business Partners

6th March 2010, marked a very special day for Agathians Shelter in PJ as we raised about RM 1200 from friends and suppliers to buy some food as donation to the 33 young children housed in a shelter nestled next to the federal highway off the Jalan Templer/222 turn-off.



This is a view of the shelter from the Federal Highway, Subang bound.

We chanced upon this shelter when we wanted to embark on our mission to give back to the society as we felt that the underprivileged also deserves a right to feel good.   A little background on the shelter is that this shelter is currently housing 33 boys, aged 4 to 17 and the picture you see above is the corner unit that they are renting to expand.  Their existing house is the unit before the corner unit you see in the picture above and before they can move into the new "wing" they will require RM12,000.00 for wiring and plumbing purposes alone!  Currently this renovation has been pending for the past 2 months due to a lack of funds.

Here's a link on I found on YouTube on them.  Click here.

Here are some additional pictures of what went on that day.




















For more info on the shelter, the website is http://www.agathians.org/index.htm

We hope to also place a box for your donations at our salon to help them raise the RM 12k required.  For those who want to donate directly can call the number above and all donations will be issued tax exempted receipts.


Its nice to do good!  No words can describe the good feeling from such an activity.

Peter Tan Photography Valentine Giveaway and FACES Valentine Shoot

We were also the proud sponsor for the Peter Tan Photography Valentine Giveaway where we met up with Elise and Isaac who were the happy couple to have won the prize of a makeover from us!



Working with them was a true pleasure as both of them were good looking and not much make-up was required from us to make them look good.

To see more of the pictures from Peter Tan Photography, click here

Also in the Valentine mood, we worked together with Peter Tan Photography and FACES Magazine for their Valentine Issue which featured 7 of 10 couples from Peter Tan Photography's LUCKY COUPLE contest.


We had quite a lot of fun working on this project with Faces as we had to work on 7 couples throughout the day for the shoot and boy were we glad that the shoot was in Gardens!  Made a lot of the work simpler as there was no travelling involved.

Jan 2010 Feature of the Month

Controversy!  Drama! Never seen before relentless support for contestants for our January 2010 Feature of the Month.  There were 2 very strong contestants that lit up the entire competition, Alicia Wong and Yvonne Ng.  Votes for both contestants coming in like 2 boxers trading punches, with neither a clear victor in sight.


When we announced the results, declaring Alicia Wong as the winner, we were instantly corrected by the supporters of Yvonne Ng that we might have made a mistake on the calculation of the votes.  Among the comments we received were that voting did not close at 12 midnight but instead the winner was announced only the next day (ironically terms and conditions dictated earlier stated otherwise)


However, its nice to know that our mini contest is being taken seriously and thus the commitment from contestants to gather more votes from their friends and their friends.


We deliberated and felt that an error may have occurred during the calculation of the votes and we have decided to make both Alicia Wong and Yvonne Ng as joint winners for our Jan 2010 feature of the month.  We would also like to thank Pete (Peter Tan Photography) for the gracious support for us to take both winners without much hesitation when spoken to.




We have also deliberated on the entire matter and felt that necessary changes were required to control and to make voting fairer for contestants and also for us as we have been pretty flexible with willing participants of our Feature of the Month.

Thus without much ado, allow me to welcome to you, the additional Terms and Conditions that we felt would do some justice to much of our hardwork.  



We hope that everyone understands that this is not any deliberate attempt to undermine anyone but rather we hoped that everyone would learn to understand how damaging the written word is even though the person did not say it face to face.  Lawsuits have been won in the past for damaging statements or untrue statements that did not reflect the actual course of events.

Again we hope that this serves as a reminder that this contest is created for fun and also for everyone to enjoy their new hairdo with their friends as a genuine vote requires only a CLICK and not really the world.

May you find peace.

Cheers

Ahmad Nabil's Shoot with Peter Tan Photography

My apologies for the long absence as we've gotten a little rusty from the Chinese New Year Holidays... :-)


Time has really passed since Chinese New Year till now and its already in March!  We've missed blogging for the entire month of February due to the tremendous support shown by everyone coming in before the festive season.  Again many thanks to those who made appointments and also putting up with the slightly "HEATY" Aircond ;-) (the weather over CNY was really bad eh.. remember?)
