Beauty Formula | Taming The Tresses


GOODBYE Headbands. HELLO Shiny Straight Locks!
Macy Yambao-Galvez gets ready!

Young mom and chinadollstyle reader Macy Yambao-Galvez is first and foremost a wife and mother. She is blessed with an active 1-year old baby girl, Morgan. Having her hands full with errands and duties, she desires a fuss-free, low maintenance hairstyle that still brings out a bit of her feminine side.

Q: My hair has become “ugh-ly”—read: curly / frizzy; tips are “fly-away” and lacks luster. My husband Migy says there might be a war happening between the strands! What in-salon color and straightening treatment is worth my time and effort to put my hair back in shape?

A: Chinadollstyle referred Macy to Azta Urban Salon for a fun long afternoon trying out L’Oreal's Chroma Straight (Gloss Treatment-Color+ Xtenso Moisturist).

Born with curly / frizzy hair, it has always been a struggle for Macy to find the perfect fit! She had tried rebonding 7 months ago and now her hair is in agony. Luckily, she tried Azta Urban Salon’s branch at Forum Robinsons (Mezzanine level). Senior Stylist Mon provided his expert know-how as she tried the L’Oreal Chroma Straight (about P6,000.00 on her hair length). He gives tips on what to expect and how to care for her hair to prolong the nice effects of this treatment!

From roots to tips: Retouching the roots played a vital part on Macy’s hair. Application of gloss treatment to bring out the shine came in second. Mon started doing the L'Oreal Chroma Straight which usually takes 5 hours.

Azta Urban Salon's Mon + happy Macy

“I love that Mon and assistant Wendy took time to make sure I was comfortable in all of 5-7 hours (depending on length)! Thankfully, they have comfy chairs to make all of the waiting and sitting bearable. They used warm water (love!) but I wish they had more ear caps to lessen the sting. Of course nothing compares to how I know my hair will look after 48 hours of no washing!” Macy gamely shares.

*note: after 48 hours of no washing, Macy happily reports that her hair is so soft and shiny! Hubby Migy was pretty amazed about her hair's newly minted "peace front"! She now wears her hair like a badge of honor and happily cares for playful Morgan!

TIP: Azta Urban Salon has an ongoing promo. Avail of 30% off on Regular Rebonding, Root Rebonding, Power Rebonding and Chroma Straight Rebonding. All in cooperation with L'Oreal Professionnel. Check Azta's FB Page for salon listing.
