A couple of weeks before I started writing for Beauty Gizmo, funny thing happened to my really old hair dryer. It just died. It just completely blew up and died. It was one of those funny things but not really. Know what I mean? It was an old hair dryer though so it wasn’t really a surprise. Nevertheless, I considered it a major beauty disaster. I also found it ironic how and when it happened. See, my routine after shower is as follows :

• dry up
• brush my teeth
• moisturize, moisturize, moisturize

Then I would apply mousse all over my hair for volume. I kind of massage my hair with the mousse to make sure the whole head gets the treatment. The last process would be to blow dry with the hair dryer.

This is when the adage “something happens when you change your routine” creepily comes true. Instead of doing that step by step, I applied mousse on my hair after I brushed my teeth. I proceeded on moisturizing after that. When it was time to blow dry my hair, my old trusted hair dryer wouldn’t turn on. I was screaming in the bathroom to which my husband thought was funny which then irked me even more. It wouldn’t have if I wasn’t going anywhere that day. That’s the reason why I applied mousse on my hair and planned on blow drying in the first place. At home I usually just brush my hair as is after shower.

If I didn’t put mousse beforehand I might not have reacted the way I did but with the volumizing component sitting in my hair, I just knew I would be sporting a slightly slick set of hair. It’s really not a good look for me especially with my choppy bangs. Talk about a bad hair day. I braved that day with a hair full of mousse. As luck would have it, Wal-Mart was my first stop that day. A new Vidal Sassoon hair dryer was my first purchase.

Lesson of the day : Test your hair dryer before applying mousse on your hair.

Now it’s your turn. What was your major beauty disaster ever? C’mon, don’t be shy .

Smiling Lessons, Anyone?

If you’re in dire need of a nosejob and don’t have the funds to get some help from the doctah, then this is pretty cheap! This is really funny because it promises to keep your nose happy, germ free, and stink free!

To add, the word jiahe, which is the brand, is a Filipino slang word for, “embarrassing.”
