According to L’Oreal Professionnel (printed in Marie Claire May 2011 issue)
American’s spend $1.4 billion a year on hair products – more than China, France, Brazil and India combined!!
Now how do I get them to spend just one million on mine?? Ha!

Hit or Miss….
So what do you think? I think he’s a singer from a band called Big Bangs TOP. Not really my cup of tea but I have to say, at least they didn’t give him bleached out yellow Asian hair, right?
Going back to my ‘way too feminine’ look for Asian guys article. I really don’t think this one can be helped really, what with that baby faced look, how can he NOT look fem?

In Style Virtual Makeover..
Well, we’ve heard of them before, online makeovers where you can upload your photo and try out new hairstyles!!
Here’s In Style’s version of it, follow the link and give it a try.
Although fun to do, I have always been quite pleased that we as hairdressers will not be replaced by computers! How can someone make a program that will look at someones hair and face shape and give them a good consultation, or give advice as to how one should style a certain type of hair, or what style should be cut to suit someone the best. Hope I’m not wrong : (
In reality, I feel these programs give a false illusion as the hair thickness, texture, color and everything else is not the same as the person trying out the style, so please don’t take them too seriously as in most cases it wouldn’t do anything but give you a very rough idea of what it might look like if you half close your eyes!!
Thanks to Kelly Cakar for sharing.
My Pick..
Taken from a DSquared Ad, its most probably a wig but hey, I liked the total look of it a lot.
Love the bowl shape as well as the way it has slightly chunky edges and a little bit of layering throughout the edges. We used us call this the pageboy/halo style back in the Vidal Sassoon UK days.
If anyone is interested, there’s a great new educational website that features a heck of a lot of talent showing alot of haircuts and colors. Here is a clip of a video of a classic Halo haircut demonstrated by Stacey Broughton. (Ex Artistic Director from Sassoons)
Nice!!
Great Reviews..
There really is nothing like a couple of great reviews to start the day off… Thank Lindsay and Amanda …
I know I’ve said this before but your dry shampoo/texturizer is quite honestly the best stuff ever. I even use it on my clean, dry hair to give it more density and texture. I’ve never found anything else like it and I’ve tried so many things! I’m half asian but I totally inherited the asian hair gene full-on. I have thick individual strands of hair but sometimes (especially in the bangs area) I can see a sparse look. It’s not like balding, but just sparse…especially if my hair gets oily…know what I mean? Anyway, your product totally helps it look less sparse, too. I’ll be a lifelong supporter of JuJuChan!
I can’t wait to see what else you have up your sleeve!
xoxo,
Lindsay

Finally a product that does what it says!!! My hair is long, fine and extremely straight, because of this my hair tends to weigh itself down and on those days that I didn’t wash my hair well let’s just say it hasn’t always been pretty….until I started using Juju Chan texture powder!!!!
Trust me I’ve tried them all the dry shampoos that promise your hair will look like you just washed it…NOT! The products that promise more body….ugh those are the worst. They last 5 mins and then you are stuck with gross product in your hair and it’s still flat…FAIL!!!
I came across this product by chance and after that first time using it (without knowing where to get it) I ran to Sephora to see if they carried it….they didn’t and I was completely shocked. How could a product this great not be in there stores?! Luckily I discovered that you could purchase online or Dekko Salon (yay for me for living so close to my favorite salon 🙂
Since using this product I tend to like my hair more on the days I haven’t washed it, It gives it wonderful body, takes away any grease and I swear it makes my thin hair feel like it’s doubled in thickness. On the days I do wash my hair I still use it to give my hair a bit more oomph. Love love love this stuff!!!
Anime Contacts Lenses..
I have noticed everywhere I look nowadays there are young women (Asian, in particular) who have been walking around with Anime contacts in. For those who don’t know what they are – these are contacts of any color that are larger than the average size contacts that gives the ‘doll’ like look. Of course Lady Gaga had to be there first with her ginormous contacts for her Bad Romance video. I have a suspicious feeling that one day soon I will be writing about her latest shoulder horns when they too become mainstream!!
So here’s the advertising version of one eye in, along with my very own version.. of course I had to try!!
And here are the different colors, Lighter Brown, and for added effect I wore blue in one eye (right) and violet in the other (left)!
Cute right? Yeah, maybe if cute, funky and under 40!! Just to show you how it can look if it starts to wander within the eye.. not a very good look on me.. HaHa! 
Play around and enjoy. There’s many online stores that sell them although a lot are overseas but definitely worth getting some to try out and mess around with.
UPS Sucks…..
A whole long week of phone calls, frustration and disappointments : (
UPS failed to deliver my Juju Chan Texture Powder Styler to the Cannes Film Festival event in time which meant I lost out completely!!!
Their excuse? No such person by that name – Not True, and concierge wouldnt accept it – ??
I did everything possible to try to have it delivered on time, even staying up till the early hours to call UPS France, and calling them every single day for a week, but no such luck.
It has taken them 8 days after I mailed the package to finally get a manager to speak to me and this made it even worse, not their fault, no refund, pay $500 to get the products back, there’s nothing they can do. I shouldve stuck to speaking to the supervisors and others who at least had sympathy and admitted this was a UPS error. Thanks so much Henry Maltez for being such a prat.
If I wasnt so exhausted with it all, I would continue to fight but what the hell, I need to let go and move on, (which I know is exactly what they wanted me to do)
I just have one thing to say to UPS – If you dont know how to go about delivering International packages, dont offer the service!! Simple as that!
And dont pick on the small companies, wear them out, just becos you can, that just SUCKS!
Saddest part about this whole thing.. I wasted time on the phone to UPS when I shouldve been spending quality time with my visiting family members, so sorry for that.
Thanks for letting me vent..
Juju Chan’s ‘TEXTURE’ is going to Cannes Film Festival!

The gorgeous official poster for the 2011 Festival with Faye Dunaway.
Hair Stickies…Just for fun!
I guess Joni (from Dekko Salon) was clearing out her house or something cos she gave me these weird stickies for some reason and I wondered what on earth I could do with them?
Then I came across this photo that was took when some of the Dekko girls decided to go and watch Eclipse
I thought I’d give everyone a new look and update their hairstyles abit and lo and behold, the stickies fit!!… so here’s the new version!! Thanks girls for the laff!!! (Dunno why were so stretched tho girls, I didn’t attempt to make us look slimmer)
