Student No More

Not so long ago, I blogged about my Final Project's judgement day (If you haven't read it, here's the link http://bit.ly/GosokGigi). During that day, while waiting for the other students to finish their presentation, my friends (Nita & Stiev) and I found this air-conditioned empty classroom where we had our lunch comfortably, and of course... had our photos taken so vainly, just for fun. Hahaha. Besides, Elle always says that I'm not narcissistic enough.
Well, today, my friend, Imma prove her wrong :b

Made these little Lego creatures. The left one is Taurus the Bull and the right one is, uh... General Mitsubishi from Japan? Lol. Pardon my jayusism.

And yeah, the room wasn't completely empty with that man behind me -_-"

Ok one last normal pic to ease your eyes after the BTS pic #02 hahaha!

Big thanks to:
Stiev and Nita for taking the pics!
Both of them also got their shots (not just me ok lol), but I haven't ask their permission yet to post them here, so, maybe I'll get this post updated later ;)

Viva La Vintage

Hi everyone, sorry for not posting for a while, Jess and I have been on a family trip this past week. Anyway, during my trip I saw this delicious vintage luggage (didn't capture it, sigh) and it inspired me to create this outfit! Inspiration can come from anywhere, indeed. :)

Top, Pants, Blazer, Belt and Bag are from GOWIGASA.

Bye Bye, Unwanted Hair!

Have you ever wonder why such thing as ARMPIT HAIR exists? Not only it's not pretty, it is also freaking useless. Couple months ago, Jess did a quick research and found this site dedicated for The (infamous) Armpit Hair, *Warning: Disturbing Image Attached* Hahaha. Not only underarm hair (nickname for pit hair) lah, we girls also questioning the existence of leg's hair, arm's hair, upper lip's hair (yes, it is a nickname for mustache, and yes, some of us DO have a tiny bit share of mustache lol), and not to mention PUBIC hair. Why... Oh... Why... T______T

So, in order to get that smooth and hairless look we want, we braced ourselves and went through Shaving, Threading, Plucking, Waxing, Sugaring, til the latest one: Epilating.

These methods DID remove the unwanted hair but -we don't know about you guys, but with us, the hair grew back in a very short period of time (uh, in less than a week?). It's kinda frustrating, not to mention the pain from waxing and plucking, and also the negative side effect from shaving (ingrown hairs, bleeding, etc.) Epilator was our favorite method so far, but it's also temporary.

Now now, while longing for the perfect way to remove all these unwanted hair, we found this piece of advertorial in a magazine not so long ago. It was about this hair removal specialist; ZAP. Quoting from the website:

"ZAP offers Intense Pulsed Light technology for Permanent Hair Removal. Its enjoyable and cost effective. ZAP is the most affordable Permanent Hair Removal in Indonesia. Price starts from Rp.75.000. ZAP is the specialist in permanent hair removal treatment using popular technology in Australia and other major countries in the world.

Through a unique concept ZAP introduced ZAP Permanent Hair Removal and its superiority to all people of Indonesia."

Ok it basically offers a completely safe and different technique from any of those methods we mentioned before. What makes it different is: ZAP offers us PERMANENT RESULT*! Imagine how much time we'd save PLUS how gorgeous those smooth and hairless body parts would look like!! So we thought: "Omo, this is meant to be!" and decided to give it a try ;)
*It took, more or less, 5 times for a best result for permanent hair removal, due to hair condition. It takes 6-12 weeks until 2 month for each treatment. Due to the different phases of hair growth, a waiting-period of 6 weeks should be necessary for the best result.

We went to the closest ZAP outlet which is located at Belleza, Jakarta. The place looks nice and we were greeted by their friendly crews. For starter, each of us were asked to fill two forms regarding our physical condition and some of our personal data. After that, they took us to two separate rooms and began the treatment (WATCH THE VIDEO PLEASE for the full progress, HAHAHA):

Okay the treatment was exceptionally PAINLESS! Both me and elle felt absolutely nothing but some kind of flicking? Haha and it was very comfortable (I even fell asleep during the treatment wtf) compared to the other hair removal methods we mentioned before. AND since ZAP offers greater result (permanent removal), we were expecting even greater pain loh... Hahaha turns out it was more effective, yet much more painless. The best hair removal method or what?? :D :D

Happy legs, hairless legs!

So, after longing for that perfect way for hair removal, we have finally found it and can happily say, "Bye bye, unwanted hair!"
