Hair does that when it is thirsty. After you finish washing your hair, let it dry how you normally do until it's damp but not wet. Then apply a leave-in conditioner that suits your hair type. Doesn't have to be a specially formulated one, even certain oils do the trick (I use argan). Try doing this once a week at first, then increase frequency as required

Singapore is convenient, people are nice, I love the food. I just don't love the fact that it is hot year round, no four seasons. People also tend to be quite the same. Coming from the North of Vietnam, I guess I just craved for more chaos and diversity in my life 😂.

[@energy12211]

@@linhduong0809 Good observation. I wonder if it's because of a mix of scarcity mindset ( given how small Singapore is, the opportunities are always less compared to US or Europe) and cultural factors (e.g. can't disappoint parents etc., No sense of independence/ independent viewpoint as they stay with their parents mostly..). But what really surprised me is how so few people actually leveraged their powerful passport to explore different parts of world or even worked abroad.

We take time to warm up. Having lived overseas, I find friendliness to be relative. Westerners ask "how are you" but they don't really mean to know about your mental health. It feels nice and cosy as if someone cares about you, but after awhile, it's just another day to day greeting. In Singapore, we dont greet because of the fast pace, but if we ask you "how are you", we really mean to know if you are really coping well and will be ready to spend time listening to you.

[@kwangc6720]

yeah Singaporeans are so stressed up with Whatsapp messages. The boss or colleague could be texting at 9pm and they expect you to reply. Singaporeans work almost 24/7.

The water in most of Asia is soft water. Hair is softer, smoother, shiner and less likely to shed so you have each hair strand for a longer cycle. Skin is less dry and retains moisture. 😍 NA tends to use hard water so all the minerals in our water get deposited back into our hair and skin leaving it much drier to the touch. You can always buy filters to fix this problem. 😄 Either a filter for the water tank system in a house or individial filters for each shower. It's why I love going to Asia. The humidity in the air is so nice too and I love being able to walk around.

You mean Malaysia. We buy some of our water from Malaysia. But we also do water treatment for them. The cost of building water treatment facilities, maintaining and operating them is really high and we sell the treated water back to them for lesser than it would cost them to do all of the above and treat it themselves. We also have reservoirs and water catchment areas and treat sea water to desalinate them, and there is also Newater- water we recycle, filter, treat and make super clean. I don’t know about others but my kids are racial blind meaning they are polite to everyone regardless of race or nationality or religion because we raised them that way. As parents, we ourselves have friends of various races and faiths. Education starts at home. Racism is everywhere. Prejudice is everywhere but we can make a difference from home to teach them positively and hope their generation will make a difference.

@Spamamageri yes i meant Malaysia, thanks. Don't know how I typed it wrong 🤣🤣 Malaysia does have its own water treatment plants, my husband's work was part of it. It's lovely that your kids are polite to everyone regardless of background. Good job. I think we shouldn't call it racial blind, because when we want our kids to respect others we teach them about the differences so they can be respectful of that too. I.e we're not all the same (though we are equal) but we can appreciate all the differences between us. I'm sure you've taught your kids to be respectful of the differences and they probably have interesting experiences because of it.

Cars here are very expensive so they can manage the number of cars on the roads, this is to reduce the number of traffic jams, and to reduce the emissions from cars. Not only that though, driving into certain areas will charge you extra, and parking, depending on where you are, can be EXPENSIVE Even in residential areas they'll charge you for parking if you don't have a season pass! But as you said the public transport is AMAZING and we're pretty well connected :) Im glad you enjoyed Singapore, and I hope you visit again! As expensive as it can be. Also here's a tiny lil tip for those who plan on coming: Want to eat fast food? Enter more residential areas, they food there is much cheaper. Want to go to a supermarket? Look for NTUC/Fair price :) Cold Storage can be much more expensive, but you're paying for quality so it's up to you:)

Whatever you just said, makes Malaysia 280% better. Singapore is so stressful, people are competitive and judgmental af.

Don’t think so.

... haha... says the Malaysian. Go and google and you'll see for yourself how much salty, bigoted, hateful speech made by M'sians about Singapore and Singaporeans. Singaporeans on the other hand, have nothing but praise for the food, lifestyle, M'sians and many have M'sian spouses here and wish to retire in Malaysia. Please lah, you Malaysians need to accept your lot, start fixing your problems in your country and stop using Singapore and all things Singaporean as a punching bag for your sad problems. Man up.

[@Amiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii]

I found Singaporeans to actually be somewhat rude and unkind. Also, the environment is so clean but… the people are not.😅
