Our lucky winner was Tan Jia Hui, who shares her experience with the first of her prizes — a transforming haircut at Ooosh!
The neighborhood salon has been my most frequently visited hair salon for the past few years. I thought I had found myself a stylist in my neighborhood — it was an inexpensive and convenient choice as it was located just across the road from my house. This has gone on for years—I’ve become so used to cheap haircuts since I was studying and supporting my own expenses.
I continued going to my old salon even when I started working, mostly because I was used to it. Until Nanzinc.Com told me that I had won their grand prize which was five prizes! One of the prizes was a haircut and colour at Ooosh! Hair Academy at Delfi Orchard.
My first impression when I walked in was: Great place, luxury design, warm lighting with a beautiful chandelier. Many smiles greeted me as owner and hairstylist Perry Goh walked me to my seat.
I was served tea and the salon was filled with relaxing music. But my heart was still beating a little fast. I had come here with a very conservative style in mind. I didn’t dare to risk too big of a change as a few months from now, I’m going to be a bride. I told Perry my concerns, and he gave me a sense of assurance that it would not be something I would regret.
He then came with a few hair colour choices—I left the decision to him. Having my hair coloured at Ooosh! was like a high-class massage for my hair! I loved the feeling of fingers running through my hair, the sensation calmed all my nerves.
The colour came out better than expected, not too loud but yet stylish. The cut, on the other hand, was a bit frightening! Perry suggested straight bangs, something I had always wanted to try but never dared to do. Thinking that I would still have time to grow it out before my Big Day, in case I didn’t like it, I decided to let Perry go ahead and cut it.
The result was and is amazing! It is really worth while trusting your stylist to do the job. I feel like a top model with my new bangs.
Perry and his team are like a big family, making me feel really welcome. Oh, did I mention that I was given a VIP seat? Yes, a really cozy corner in the salon protected from prying eyes by a beautiful curtain.
Thanks all for such a wonderful experience! I will definitely return, and highly recommend Ooosh! to all!
Postscript: A few days later we asked Jia Hui how her fiance liked her new look. She shared this exchange they had:
Jia Hui: See my hair? Nice?
Fiance: Ya (kept looking looking looking non-stop, haha!)
Jia Hui: Did you notice I put on eye shadow?
Fiance: No, you look different, I’m still trying to get used to it.
Jia Hui: Oh, then is it nice?
Fiance: Delicious!
