#94 (Healthy-hair talk aka my journey back to blonde)

Hellooooooo

me again!!

thank you everyone who told me on my tumblr that they enjoy reading my blog posts ヾ(´･ω･｀)

And also on my latest blogpost i got so many positive comments on that blonde wig, so that I decided to dye my hair back to blonde again!! I had that in mind for a long time already but I didn't dare to do it because bleaching isn't really the best thing for your hair...

Aaah that wasn't easy, since my hair was reddish before （；￣ェ￣）
I decided to consult my hairdresser and together we found a solution for the problem.

My hair used to be something like this color before we started bleaching

Since my hair grew long and i didn't want to cut it, i searched for a solution to bleach without a lot damage. 

We decided to bleach it only a little bit, then wait for a month and repeat it. 

We used 1,9% H2O2 and bleaching powder and left it in for about 1 hour.

Normally, for bleaching your hair you use up to 6% but that's much more aggressive and bad for your hair. So if you use 1,9% and just leave it in longer, it almost has the same effect as 3% or 6% left in for half an hour. (but that's just what my hairdresser told me, i don't really have a clue myself)

to get a more even result, my hairdresser first applied the bleach onto the length where the red was stronger, and then did the roots later. Because otherwise my roots would have been much lighter than the rest and it looks really stupid. 

We applied a repair hair mask after that since the hair was very dry. 

It wasn't as light as i wanted it to be but I was satisfied so far. I knew it would get lighter later on. 

It looked something like this maybe a little bit more orange in normal light. more like the gif down there. 

It would be a lie to say my hair wasn't damaged after that. It was! but I found a good thing that made it better. A lot better!!

The thing is called "Coppola Keratin Complex Infusion" and it is keratin treatment, that you put into your hair after washing. 

It's a little bit expensive but I heard good things about it so I gave it a try. And let me tell you, it worked WONDERS. my hair looked and felt a lot better after a few times of using the stuff. 

This is what it looks like 

The old version had a see through bottle so you could see the pink stuff inside, the new one is white. Mine looks like the second one but sometimes you can still get the one above. 

The serum is pink and looks like cream. You apply it into dry hair and then blow-dry your hair. It's important to use HEAT, because this way it kinda melts into your hair. 

I don't know how it actually works but it does! 

this is what the official homepage says about it:

Keratin Complex Infusion is a unique formulation with advanced infusion technology. This high Ph replenisher automatically opens the cuticle and enters to infuse Keratin proteins and emollients into the hair. Its deep penetrating action repairs and revitalizes hair during blow drying or ironing and closes the cuticle to entrap nourishment. Optimized for use as a daily maintenance to the Keratin Complex Smoothing Therapy Natural Keratin Treatment.

My hair was in good condition after a month. Even the hairdresser was surprised. 

I ordered the keratin complex infusion on amazon.

Last thursday we bleached my hair again and I ordered new clip-in extensions!

Yesterday I was invited to BBQ and my best friend Julia styled my hair. 

TA-DA!!! 

I'm a barbie girl again. 

It's still a little bit yellowish on some parts but I can fix that with silver shampoo.

Also I got the results of my exams and I did really well this term! all the studying was worth it! 

I achieved an A in japanese!

I started watching the Anime "Shingeki no Kyojin" and i can really recommend it. I love it!

In two days (on monday) I'm flying to Japan with my dad!

I really want to blog more this time but maybe i'll be lazy so definitely check out my twitter and instagram for updates and pictures!

My nickname is hiki0318 on both platforms. 

See you!!

#86 back from japan part2

So second post, yay!

The favourite thin I bought in Tokyo was my Glavil / tutuHa dress.

althogh I think it's something I can't really wear in Germany lol.
My parents just call it a "doll dress".

anyway I really like it.
Although it makes my boobies look big. which they are not. lol

Ah I bought so much at tutuHA! I love the clothes there. But somehow you can't really tell in which Gyaru style they fit in can you?

I didn't buy that much at mars. That's strange...
But the things just didn't really make me go like "whoa i need this."
But I like Real Ma*rs tho. 

Anyway here's a pic with Tomomi-chan :D She's so cute~
And she was really honored that we recognized her. 

talking of tutuHA and brands. I often saw Japanese girls wear brand stuff with crocs. LOL 

especially at lives. Every second person wears crocs regardless what they are wearing on top. 

I wish I would have more pictures of my outfits... but somehow I was too lazy to take pics LOL

And it was far tooooooooo hot for that too!

and on most pictures I just make a retarded face. 

I like making retarded faces :D

OR i get photographed while eating

omnomnom. 

but the food was so delicious! I ate so much. And still I lost weight haha. Maybe because we were running around all day and jumping around at the concerts. 

I bought myself 2 of these... things. kinda like summer kigurumis. I have Korilakkuma and Gacchapin! :"D they are perfect for just chilling at home... or if I don't know what to wear at a convention. 

I really spent a lot of money. I guess half of it just for merchandise and concerts! But that's a fangirl's life. I regret nothing. 

this is just a part of the stuff tho. Afterwards I realized that there are still things missing on the picture. Like my 4 tourshirts, towel, some vivid stuff... I REGRET NOTHING.

During weekdays I always went to a japanese language school. Every day from 9:00 to 12:45. It was a short time but I really learned a few new things and it was fun!

This was one of the teachers. His drawings were so funny!! 

I'm also very thankful that I had the chance to meet a lot of interesting people!
The people at school were so nice as well. Too bad I couldn't spend more time with them.

Also, I was very happy to meet the members of Ayabie. They are really friendly. Even tho Jennyfer and Juliet can't speak Japanese, the members tried their best to talk to them

On the last evening we party at Shibuya we met some really cool students. Those guys took us to Karaoke and it was one of the funniest night we had!

The pic was taken at 6am in the morning after we drank a lot so we look ... tired. xD

It really was a great trip. 

I can't wait to go again.

But today I'm leaving for italy!!

See you again, Keep Smiling <33

xoxo Hiki

#85 back from japan part1

TADAIMAAAA!!!!

first of all SORRY! sorry sorry for not updating my blog while I was in Japan...
It was far too complicated with my ipad and we never had time anyway. I went to school at 9 in the morning and usually we came back from partying at night past midnight!

Well I hope I can make up with some pictures at least...

So what happened while we were in Japan?
A lot actually!



So in generel we went to a lot of lives, did shopping until our wallets were bleeding, took purikura and made party!
It was a great trip, really. I'm so happy I was going with Rin and Juliet. We had so much fun, it was the best time I could have had. Thank you so much you too I love you so much!

Here a list of the lives we went to. not all of them where planned tho...

8/8 The Gazette
8/12 Born
8/15 Alice Nine
8/18 Screw, Ayabie, Guild, Kameleo, v(neu), Kra
8/19 DOG in the PWO
8/21 Twins, Visu (shyena), Tokyo Quartett, D.I.D.
8/22 Ayabie
8/24 Ayabie instore event
8/26 Lolita23q
8/27 SuG

Every single one was special on it's own way. Some people kept asking me "What was the best live?" and I can only answer with "I don't know." because they all were different and fun.

The band that surprised me the most was Ayabie I guess. I wasn't really an Ayabie fan before but I was so flashed by their performance. The new songs are awesome and Yumehito does a great job as a vocalist.

Ah, speaking of Yumehito!
After the instore on 24th we went to Karaoke with friends. And when Rin and I went to the toilet we saw that Yumehito was in the room next to us! He saw us through the door and waved and after a while he came to our room and I asked him if he could sing a song and HE REALLY DID!!
My friend Coco filmed everything secretly xDD but we won't show this to public.... since we're all drunk (Yume too) it's not really something everyone should see lol.

but it was so much fun xD

Oh and I made so many purikura I don't know where to put them all!

BTW I still have to introduce you our chicken that we bought at Harajuku. It's a dog toy actually, but we had so much fun with it!

the one in the middle yeah xD

More purikura :D 

With my darlings: 

me:

Some pictures of Tokyo:

Soo that's it for my first post about japan. I'll post putfit posts tomorrow :D 

Thank you for reading!!

XOXO keep smiling,

#83 + the Gazette special

hellooo~~~

today we went to shibuya and then to gazette's live in zepp divercity.

i'll start with the concert report and then post some pictures ;)

Soooo, we came to zepp divercity to pick up our tickets and I was so surprised that there were so many people! it was a fanclub only tour but I think there were like 3000 people but not sure. 
we had really good ticket numbers so we could enter the hall pretty early,

i stood in then 4th row at the beginning but I managed to get into first row during first songs. I stood right in front of reita, later I was somehow pushed over to aoi.  BUT FUCKING FIRST ROW!! i was so close to everyone because everyone came over, uruha even took my hand once!! Once I was so close to ruki our faces were only 1meter apart from each other.

I was impressed, the boys really look great, just like on their magazine pictures. reita smiled so much, he looked so nice! aoi has a chubby face and it's really cute :"D

I can't really remember the setlist and the order of the songs but they played ALL my favourite songs and I'm a happy hiki now! cockroach, filth in the beauty, akai one piece, shiver, vortex, calm envy and much more!

I don't even know what to tell now, I can't put all this beautiful impressions into words. 
it was powerful, wonderful, fantastic!

ruki's voice was simply stunning. especially when he sang calm envy. and then even without microphone and I was like "wow.... o__o"

but I thought I was going to die during linda and kantou. XD because all the fans did stagediving and came rolled into the front and I was hit and kicked by the girls who rolled over my head XD but worth it!
I was so proud of Julia (Seita) because she did that too!! XDDDD 

during kantou dogenza aoi grabbed reita's crotch and he did the same with uruha too XD 

i'm sorry this report isn't really good, I'm too flahsed and tired and happy and it's already 3 a.m over here... but I won't have more time to blog tomorrow so deal with it :D

Woah but really: japanese fans are crazy! really! HOLY SHIT! XDD but it's so much fun~~ i mean I went to many lives in Japan already but I'm always surprised o.o" 

haaaaa... I was so close to every member of gazette.... I can't believe this happened! 

and if this wasn't great enough already I also won the autographs and the cheki!!! holy. mother. of. god.

sooo enough writing I don't want anymore, I'm too exhausted.

great cosplayers!

and last but not least my signs and cheki!

thank you for reading!! 

see you again~~

today was cleaning day :D

I threw away tons of old stuff from my room in Austria. Since I brought some things from Munich i need storage.

tomorrow I have to clean out my closet and give away old ugly clothes I'm not wearing anymore or that don't fit anymore. maybe I'll sell some visual kei clothes that i've never worn, we'll see :)

somewhere during all my stuff i found old pictures from my first japan trip in 2007!

beware of the 17 year old chubby teenage me:

i went to nara with my guest family that day :D

it was really cool. Nara is a good place to go if you want to see beautiful old temples.

actually i know a really nice guy who lives in Nara. He'll also come to Tokyo in two weeks and we will meet each other ^^

OH and for the first time I blog from my iPad. It's weird... but I have to get used to it since that will be all I have in tokyo. Not going to take my heavy laptop with me. 

so that's it, I'm gonna go to bed early today :3

keep smiling

xoxo
