thanks !! definitely not one of my handmade things...that would take weeks to stitch by hand. I'm trying to get my line ready for fw11 so this is just a prototype I had made by a tailor. I'm pretty happy with it...but I'd like to make the front pockets a bit longer and do the zipper all the way up to the top of the collar for the final design

Actually hair stylists have insisted that I shampoo my hair on a weekly basis because of my oily hair, I end up doing it fortnightly because my hair looks best between 1-2 weeks and worst within a few days of shampooing (and yes, I've used various $30+ shampoos to the same end).

My hair looks best after a day of no shampooing. I've thought of avoiding it for long periods of time to see if it'd get used to it, but my friend did that and even after he said it was past the bad stage it still felt pretty gross.

Another on the now shampoo tip. I wash with hot water and that's it. No stink, not gross.

the price isn't the indicator it's the ingredients list most people don't read and most stylists aren't aware of. if you like, walk through the aisle next time and grab any random number of bottles and see how many have sulfates or their derivatives listed, it's astonishing. basically industrial grade chemicals that help the foaming process. and this extends across all price ranges. best bet is using olive-oil based shampoos/conditioners and extracts versus essences/fragrances. without cleaning your hair, the natural oils accumulate (irrespective of whether you have "dry/oily" hair) and then capture pollution, dirt, dust, whatever you're exposed throughout the day. now magnify this effect by the number of days you haven't washed your hair....

yes people seem to think bathing consists of pouring water on themselves

...but god it's hard to resist.


i use a $15 shampoo bar from lush, it's handmade from rustic granola or some ****. smells like a smokehouse but it's the only thing that keeps my scalp from itching like crazy. i shampoo every day.

I think lush just came to Korea not long ago. Walking into their place is like walking into a bakery but you can't eat anything so it makes you angry. Curious how their products are since my gf is extremely sensitive about soaps and usually only gets DHC.

i don't think there's any concrete rule for shampooing (e.g. if i don't wash my hair every day my scalp gets itchy as **** and my hair feels gross) but i think any less than once a week is pretty grody.

Haha my ex used to work at lush. Hardout wanted to eat those chocolate ones.


but yeah, read the ingredients. It's the same as everything else. Smells nicer and looks cooler though, so it's all good. expensive for what it is, but make really good gifts.
