With our hair stylists!

I have never seen so many cute hair stylists in one room before wtf. Aud thinks the one who does her hair is cuter and i think the one who does mine is cuter and she started referring her stylist as “suki na hito” (my crush) WTF and then all these while we were discussing whose suki na hito is cuter and she was like mine is cuter and i was like nooooo mine is so much cuter wtf

We will let you guys judge. Later.

Super massive! There was enough hairspray in my head for John Travolta to make seven thousand musicals WTF.

OK JUDGEMENT TIME!

WHAT IS THERE TO EVEN COMPETE WTF

Give you close up summore

#12

Like walk out from anime liddat right!!!!!!

Aud swears that in real life her stylist is cuter but dunno why my stylist is so freaking photogenic both of us were like =)=)=) when we saw the picture in our cam.

But whatever because i know who is the best hairstylist in the world WTF. #cryptic

Anyway ahem.

Kimono time!

#13

Ok that’s not it yet. That’s just like the inside layer nobody can see but still got nice pattern

#14

These are our pick! Very promptly we made our choice. I picked the turquoise one because it was love at first sight plus it matches my nails.

Aud picked a black and red because err… she is MODE-obsessed -_--

#15

Our stylist is super pro she only took 10 minutes to put the full kimono + obi on us!

That’s me laughing in suffocation cuz she tied the obi SO TIGHT i could hardly breathe =)

I went for Koi Omikuji (Love Fortune Paper).

It was for filming purpose. The first trial i got number 7. But director says NG because got people passed by so had to re-shoot.

dark

So the new one i got was Number 13. So i was very worried m should i take the reading for 7 or 13?!??!?! In the end i took 13.

And apparently it is 大吉 (Super good WTF).  So whatever! 13 counts then! lol.

#26

Apparently it says, the one thing i have been waiting for so long has finally come.

And it’s kind of true WTF. :X

Anyway!

#27

REPOST!

But i was so happy. When i went to Kyoto ago few years ago, i was so excited to see people wearing Furisode/Kimono. They looked so beautiful and i always chased after them and took lots of pictures of them.

This time around WE were dressed in kimono and everyone was looking at us. Probably in admiration WTF. Haha. I felt very touched la. Almost like a dream come true.

    You were both so beautiful!!! Even here in Sweden, I’m sitting looking at you guys with admiration and adoration and something else beginning with ‘a’. (All that comes up in my head is ‘asphyxiation and that’s got nothing to do with anything). You look so amazingly awesome! ♥
