Pink Parlour

Wooo, this is exciting!

I tried something I wanted to try ages ago but didn't.
And recently, I got a chance to try it out and for those who wanted to try it out too, now its your chance!! :D


I was invited to PINK PARLOUR  last week for a special service.



At the moment I stepped inside Pink Parlour @ Liang Court, I realised how wide the range of services they provide. It ranges literally from head to toe, with all sorts of grooming services you can ever imagine. The staff are so friendly and smiley, and are really helpful, guiding me around on the preparation for the service I was going to try for the first time, teeheehee.

They offer the different services starting from the face like the various kinds of  facial, then moving on to body pampering services as well as manicure/pedicure spa, and last but not least, waxing services for legs, underarms, brazillian( FOR GUYS TOO!!!) etc. You will definitely be treated just like a queen in there, not to forget, the whole place just look so comfortable & cozy and the staff are all well-trained with professionalism.

Check out the place first...


The Reception Area that you will be greeted with friendly and profession staff.




The Area whereby your toes and hands will transform to its prettiest! :)
This picture didnt capture the huge LCD screen right in front of the seats and you can just sit back and enjoy the movies even. Oh yes, they have free unlimited Wi-Fi for you to surf too! super shiok!


Another part of the area.


Pink Parlour has winning awards in Asia for providing:
- Harper's Bazaar Beauty Awards Winner 2006
- SpaAsia Crystal Awards 2007
- "Best Brazillians" rated 8.5 by Simply Her
- "Painless Brazillian" by Urban Wire
- Best Bikini Wax
- Best French Mani/Pedi
- Best Moisture Fix

And the list goes on........


And so, I went for my special service- Brazilian Waxing!

I always felt that it was kinda embarrassing to do Brazilian waxing, especially with a total stranger, but the lady boss, Wendi, was really friendly, and certainly made me felt at ease. I'm sure all the staff are trained well, to know how to make you feel comfortable, at ease and perform the service with professionalism. Wendi sure knows how to handle the situation well enough for one to enjoy a smooth and good experience with waxing, and yes! I had a great experience there!! :D


Flurry Flops.

I was changed into comfy bedroom slippers, and was lead to this amazing bathroom!!
I swear it looks like some "back to the future" device or something, and i was so amazed by it.
Trust me, Look at these pictures!









The Shower room.

Coolbeans isn't it? The blue dotted lights are kinda fascinating and I bet there will be some cool functions to use but I didnt explore it thoroughly. They provide me with a bathrobe to change into after my shower, and two towels to dry myself. Yesssss, I smelled so good after that! Geez.



Was led to this beautifully decorated and nice smelling room with soothing music playing in the background, and awaiting for Wendi to arrive. I was extremely honoured and excited to meet her man!! I know it might seem normal to some, but probably it was my first time and I totally am afraid of Pain and Tickles, I seriously contemplated for a very long time (like a year or so) to actually walk in one to try..  hmmm, so that explains the fear I had in me.

Exploring the settings abit, in case you guys have been wanting to try it out but didnt so far, look at these interesting stuff!


Betty shapes & Colours!

I was rather fascinated by this as well, because you can actually wax out the shapes! and it doesn't stop here, you can DYE pretty colours too. I heard of this really kinky surprise that one could do for valentine and I was super intrigued by it, the girl can actually do a betty heart shape design and dye in pink in colour as a surprise for your other half. Teeheehee....

So anyway, back to the settings..
  





Wooo, I didnt know that numbing spray existed for waxing!

So if you're actually super extremely afraid of PAIN, but have the thought of doing waxing or other services etc, you don't have to worry about anything already!! I actually asked Wendi if I could spray some numbing solution because I always thought that the pain would be extremely unbearable and I might be screaming like a maddie during the process, but Wendi told me that It's not that painful as what everyone has imagined it to be, and BARELY anyone uses the numbing spray.



Hard pink Wax, and the normal blue wax.
One thing about Pink Parlour is that they directly provide the service with Hard Wax treatment, and I checked before with different beauty parlour that Hard Wax is so much better than the soft wax, as it is more efficient and definitely LESS PAIN! I am once again, super amazed by the wax, and it's suitably warm in the perfect degree and comfortable on your skin.


The waxing tools.
Pink Parlour is the first beauty parlour to wax with a Brand New Strip each time they apply, and woooooo, definitely so much more hygenic, especially for brazilian and you dont have to worry bout getting yourself in touch with maybe-its-not-that-safe-nor-clean wax or tools. No worries!

Wendi did a perfectly great job and the aftermath is,
I feel super clean & hygenic and good!
lol, im serious. I think you girls can give it try if you've been wanting to do it! Especially for those who enjoy the beach, sports, tanning, swimming etc, you feel so much more at ease and absolutely so much more hygenic. I thought it would so painful, but gosh, I actually don't think it hurts at all, except for probably the a few twitch that lasted for the most 2 seconds and all upon pulling out the wax strip, but Wendi is really a professional and her skills are swift and fast, and she knows how to minimise the pain. I know it might be a lil hard to believe, but I really dont think its that painful! I told my girlfriends and urged them to try even. :p


I've to admit that I totally agree with Wendi exactly,
Its's not as painful as we imagined it to be!, and she mentioned that some girls told her before that they thought of it very long , like 3-6 months, before they actually tried it, ( and oops,apparently I thought of it so much longer than the normal girls), and that there's seriously no need for that. I totally agree!!! Now I'm wondering why did i contemplate for soooooooo longgggg. :\

 I'm definitely going back!!
Teehee, I think i'm hooked on it. I wanna be clean and hygenic. lol



Ok, now the best part!

Hello! Approx. how long does it take to grow back? I think its really more hygenic, especially when you're wearing bikini you feel safe. But im super scared of the pain as i cant even stand it when i pull the pore strip from my nose! haha.

Hi there, I know this is a bit off topic but I really would like to know if you got any idea which place is best to celebrate 21st birthday? A place or room with cool ambience and accommodating 30pax? Hope you can help since you got to attend so many parties of your friends. And also, mind sharing your idea for your 21st? =)
thank you very much as I really needed to start planning for my party but I am not good with it! =)

hey babe! i know this is kind of a funny question but what if i've never shaved/pulled my hair at that area before (and it's really long)? LOL. will it really hurt or will it be better to cut abit of the hair off before going for the wax? sorry for asking such a weird question! and thanks in advance too! :)
