… Marilyn Monroe, the sexiest, most beautiful, most influential star, “world’s most advertised woman” that’s ever lived. I have seen quite a number of her photos and posters when I was younger. And everyone loves her signature pose. Don’t you?
“I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful.” -Marilyn Monroe

… I went for threading for the very first time. Excited, oh yes of course as I remember seeing this threading thingy in some old Chinese movies my late grandmother used to watched when I was younger and did not even know what were they doing in the movies back then till I tried it on my own skin yesterday. It was nice but o.u.c.h.!!. Nice!! But… o.u.c.h…!! =P
While the threading was going on, my mind drifted to the olden days right away and how I wish some nice Chinese classical songs were played. Mm… mm… no luck. To compensate, I’ve got one of the songs downloaded and here’s the gorgeous and famous one to share. =)
Out of curiosity and interest, I check out the history about threading as soon as I reached home. And it goes like this:
Threading is an ancient method of hair removal originating in the Eastern world. In more recent times it has gained popularity in Western countries. It has long been popular in many Arab countries, and was well known from Indian and Persian culture and then China. In India threading was traditionally used to remove hair from other parts of the face as well. The upper lip, chin, sideburns and cheeks were all subject to hair removal by threading.
In threading, a thin, twisted cotton thread specially designed for threading is rolled over unwanted fine hair, plucking the hair at the follicle level. The threading practitioner holds one end of a cotton thread in her/his teeth and the other end in her/his left hand. The middle part of the thread is looped through two fingers (index and thumb or middle finger) of the right hand, and the loop used to trap unwanted hair so that it can be easily twisted or plucked from the skin. It is quick and powerful enough to remove hair from the root even for short hairs. Threading ensures that the hair removed grows back slower and thinner.
Interesting huh? Go try it at Herbaline and ask for Butterfly Threading. Go pamper yourself a lil’ bit and have an ouchie ouch weekend !! ~Melle~

My father and I listen to the oldies all the time and we both enjoy it very much. Beatles is our all time favourite. This is one of the final assignments (illustrations) back in college, specially dedicated to my father. He really got me rolling with the oldies.
Thank you for the inspiration, father.
~Luv, Girl~ That’s my name at home.
…Have you had your coffee yet? I have !!
Let’s make something good today and have a wonderful Monday to y’all.
~Luv, Melle
