REVIEW: Benibana Beauty Hub| My Ombre Bayalage Hair Makeover

0

This post was originally published on kikaysikat by Kaycee Enerva

Well what do you know. After over a year, I finally got tired of my bland, black hair. I even have new hair goals already. To get a Shadow root, Ombre Bayalage. The reason? It can grow out seamlessly with my natural hair color, yet blonde enough at the ends that I can play around with wild colors like blue, pink, or even purple hair!

But there’s just one problem. I really haven’t found THE SALON yet to achieve this. Most can promise this or that but they don’t really have the skills to do what’s required. Waste of money + Hair Trauma. Never again. 

Thankfully……there’s Benibana Beauty Hub!

So I’ve been stalking Benibana Beauty Hub on instagram for a while now and noticed they get repeat clients, and quality hair styling results. I experienced getting a hair treatment there thanks to V&M Naturals a couple of years back. Lovely lovely place. I told myself, if ever I’m going to do something drastic to my hair. This will be the place I’ll go to.

REVIEW

Ombre Bayalage Before and After

Ambiance – Visiting here is like a breath of fresh air. Metaphorically. They have a clean white cubic space with lush green detailing of vines. Minimialistic and I love it. 

They also provided ample distance between customers so it’s comfortable for everyone. Sadly they don’t have their own restroom and you have to go out, walk a few steps and under to the shared restroom with Flossam Cafe.

Speaking of Flossam Cafe, what I like about Benibana Beauty Hub’s location is that it’s beside a place that serves GOOD FOOD. I don’t want to spend hours in a salon hungry, or making-do with tea or coffee. 

Service – Everyone’s friendly and has a positive vibe. It also helps that they know when you “feel like chit-chatting” or “leave me quietly alone please” mood. They also go the extra mile to take your food orders while you wait.

Price – I’m sure you’ve seen my video where I asked Ken how much did my entire hair makeover cost me. He didn’t answer! Hehe They really told me that everyone has to go personally in their salon to have their hair checked. This factor can intimidate most customers, even those with money naman. Kasi everyone wants to know what they’re getting into right? 

Update: I sent them a message and I got a breakdown of all the services I availed.

  • 2 colors (long hair) – 4,500
  • Full Head Bleach/Bayalage  – 4,100
  • Toner – 1,200
  • Smart Bond – 1,200

Thoughts & Results – I FREAKING LOVE IT. FROM THE BANGS TO THE CUT TO THE COLOR. EVERYTHING I LOVE EVERYTHING.

I think this is the first time I went in a salon and actually got what I asked for. This hairstyle and color is what’s inside my head all this time. My stylist, Ken is skilled in his craft and I highly recommend his service if you plan to visit at Benibana Beauty Hub.

Will I come back? Definitely! Purple or Coral? Which color next?

  • With Lighten Up, you can try a brighter hair experience all from the comfort of your own home! Bleach your hair to achieve the color of your dreams. 
  • We’ve included the essentials so you can DIY the bleaching experience, but please note that it’s always better to have your hair bleached by a professional stylist. 

First things first!

Before bleaching, please make sure to prepare your hair properly. If this is your first time, we recommend consulting with your stylist first before trying at home.

What you’ll need:

  • Kit inclusions
    • Brush
    • Ear Caps
    • Mixing Bowl (300ml)
    • Bleach Powder (50g)
    • Developer (100ml)
    • L'Oréal Superbond Additive (8ml)
    • L'Oréal Superbond Treatment (16ml)
  • Optional
    • Old clothes and/or towels
    • Shower cap and/or hair clips
    • Lukewarm water
    • Timer

Preparing your hair

  • For previously treated or processed hair, we recommend waiting 3 months before bleaching.
  • To make sure your hair is well moisturized, deep-condition with masks at least twice a week for 2 weeks before bleaching.
  • The night before bleaching, soak your hair with coconut oil to help prevent significant protein loss and heavy damage.

Bleaching your hair

  1. Make sure to wear clothes you don’t mind getting bleach on! You can use an old shirt or clean towels to cover your shoulders and neck.
  2. Next, part your hair into sections using hair clips you have on hand and use the ear covers provided in the kit.
  3. Remember to put on the protective gloves before mixing and bleaching your hair. Use the brush provided to mix our ingredients.
  4. To make the hair bleach, pour ½ of the bleaching powder and ½ of the developer in the bowl provided. Mix until it’s a smooth cream. Then, pour ½ of the additive into the bowl and mix it into the cream.
  5. By using half of the ingredients, you can save the remaining products to mix as a second batch after your first application.
  6. Take one section of hair and use the brush to apply the bleach starting an inch away from the roots. Make sure to apply the bleach evenly to the rest of the sections, leaving the roots for later.*
  7. After the first application, let the product settle. Wait 20 minutes, then start mixing the remaining ingredients to make the second batch of hair bleach.
  8. Now, apply the second batch evenly to the roots of your hair. Once done, let the product settle again, this time waiting 10-15 minutes. 
  9. After a total of 35 minutes with the bleach, rinse your hair thoroughly with cold water, then towel dry. Apply the treatment on your towel-dried hair, then wait for 10 more minutes.
  10. Finally, rinse your hair thoroughly once again to remove all of the remaining products.

*If irritation occurs, please discontinue use. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.

Caring for your hair

  • Please avoid heating or styling your bleached hair for at least two (2) weeks.
  • We recommend using natural or organic hair products. Chemicals can cause damage to your hair, especially after bleaching.
  • Consider using toner for your bleached and colored hair. You can use purple, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to help neutralize unwanted undertones.
