UNGATEKEEPING MY FAV SERVICE PROVIDERS
okkkkkk!!!!!!! i am un-gatekeeping my favourite beauty service providers~~
starting with hair!!!
📍Maxx Studio – located at Upper Boon Keng
i’ve trusted Maxx with my hair for the longesttttt time and my hair is notoriously annoying to manage lol i have curly roots and have been rebonding my hair since i was p6 lmao….. but i also love dyeing and bleaching my hair and doing all sorts of shit to it :~) Maxx has NEVER failed me – i trust this man so much that sometimes i just give him free reins to do whatever he wants to my hair LOLOLOL 🫣 my hair has been damaged by multiple salons but Maxx Studio is both affordable and professional (and relatively nearby for an eastie hehe) 🤪
on to lashes!!!
📍 Layla Lash Brow – located at Far East Plaza
i’ve been going to her since end 2023 since my workplace was located nearby and no!!! regrets!!!!! lash retention is decent by my standards and prices are also okay by my standards!! it’s also mostly comfortable – but i mean i fall asleep quite easily hahaha and my eyes are actually quite sensitive so there were several sessions she’s had to help me put eye drops post appointment on her own accord!!! i usually do 4D and it’s about $85? and i do both lash and brows on the same day so its usually a total of $105~ but she’s pregnant and due to give birth soon i think so this is the only period i’ve been cheating on her w another salon 🥲🥲🥲 still waiting for the day she resumes work fully and i can return to do both brows and lash and NOT be pressured into buying packages 🤪
and finally, nails!!!
📍 nailed.dem – located in Pasir Ris (wa best for me)
only been to her place twice so far and the first time swept me off my feet la she’s the only one who has replicated my inspo pic closest to what it looks like so far 🥹 after a month (and very rough handling of my nails), only 1 extension nail was SLIGHTLY lifting!!! her prices are not the most affordable but for the convenience of location i’d take it as saving on the grab fare (HA girl math right here) 🤪 and she’s very comfortable w feedback!!! sister here has difficulties voicing out her desires but w nailed.dem, she’s v open to my changing the length and my opinions on the design!!!! love love loooove
ok that’s all; just my personal recommendations and un-gatekeeps hehe not a lot of pics bc v hard to dig thru my albums lol i lazy my bad
If you're like me and have struggled to find reliable beauty service providers, these local gems are definitely worth checking out. Maxx Studio in Upper Boon Keng impressed me with their expertise especially for tricky hair like mine—curly roots, rebonding, and color treatments are handled so professionally that I feel confident every visit. It’s rare to find a stylist you completely trust to experiment with your hair! For lash and brow care, Layla Lash Brow at Far East Plaza offers a comfortable environment and great retention that suits sensitive eyes. I really appreciate how caring the technician is, going above and beyond by helping with eye drops after treatments. Her pricing is fair for quality 4D lash extensions, and the ability to combine lash and brow services in one visit is a huge plus. When it comes to nails, nailed.dem in Pasir Ris really matched my inspiration designs with precision and patience. The salon welcomes feedback openly, making it easier for those of us who find it hard to express what we want. While slightly pricier, the convenience and consistently good results make it worth it. For anyone in Singapore seeking trusted and skilled beauty providers, these spots combine professionalism, convenience, and personal care. Plus, supporting local businesses like these helps maintain the quality and passion we beauty enthusiasts crave. Try them out and see for yourself!
