Petra & Pepita Rebond Review

         I've had my fair share of experiences when it comes to rebonding. I had my hair rebonded several times already since 2007. Some were amazing and some were extremely horrible, which is really painful because I just wasted my money. That's why before going to a certain salon, I look for reviews first.

I've read good and bad reviews about Petra & Pepita but I took the risk and went to P&P Dapitan Branch.

As I went inside, a stylist accomodated me. I asked him how much is their rebond with treatment. He showed me the price list and I chose package #1 but he insisted that I get package #3 instead because I have a dyed hair and its somewhat damaged. Also, if I'll avail package #1, there's no warranty which means that if something went wrong with my hair 3-5days after the procedure, or if I am not satisfied with the result, I cannot go back to them to have it fixed. So yeah, I took package #3.


So, I arrived there past 11AM.

11:20 AM - shampooed my hair
11:28 AM - rebond relaxant and hair spa were applied ... and rinsed at 1:03 PM


You can tell so much about this salon's hygiene just by looking at their tables.



Manicure and Pedicure in between. They said it is included in the package that I availed. But this is not the usual mani-pedi. It's nail cleaning only. The girl who did my nails didn't even remove my ingrown. No nail polish as well unless you're willing for additional pay. I don't even think ate knows what she's doing.

Murdered nails! Ouch!


1:05 PM - ironed my hair
2:14 PM - washable cellophane and pro-vitamins were applied.


This is what it looks like after 3 days.




It's been a month since I had my hair rebonded and its still look nice and pin straight though I can see that there are some strands that are close to getting curly again. I hope it could take at least 6 months before my hair gets back to its normal shape.


UPDATE: 10/12/2016

It was June 11 when I had my hair rebonded and here is my hair after 4 months.. no filter... I just put a sticker to cover my oily face :)

Sgt. At Arms by Fainess & Flawless Review


I always see Fairness&Flawless page on my news feed featuring their famous Sgt. At Arms Deo. So I visited their page and hit LIKE coz I was pretty much intrigued by that deo coz it's very cheap. One bottle is for P139 only. It's a whitening deo, but what made me convinced to buy this product were the comments I read about "dryness".

Whenever I want to try a certain product, I always make sure to look for reviews online before buying because I don't wanna waste my money coz I am the number one kuripot in town and I believe in the word of mouth rather than what the product promises after using it. One FB user said that it really keeps her armpit dry. During that time I was using DEONAT because the product claims that it's aluminum-free (aluminum causes dark UA). I still sweat from Deonat and when it dries, it really stinks! So I tried using Sgt.At Arms.

This deo spray is very effective and practical. I've been using mine for about a month now and I haven't consumed half of it, 1 to 2 sprays are enough. I purchased mine at Shoptitude in Sikatuna Village QC. I am really amazed by this product coz it really keeps my UA dry. I usually walk for 5mins to get to the office and that makes me sweat a lot, but I am no longer feeling that sweaty and stinky UA after I started using this deo spray. No sticky feeling at all!

As for now, I can't tell you guys the effect of whitening because I have a really dark UA due to my pregnancy before. Maybe it really does whiten but it depends on how dark your UA is. For my UA, the whitening effect may be gradual but what I can assure you is that this product really does wonders when it comes to dryness and feeling fresh and it won't make your UA dark just like what other deos I have tried in the past did to my UA (i.e Rexona, Dova, Nivea). I'll keep you updated pag pumuti na UA ko :)
