Yesterday Yeimmy invited me to a hairdresser. I wanted to go anyway at the end of my trip so she did it right on time. The hairdresser was expensive but very good. He looked at me for a few seconds and then cut my fringe on the other side of my forehead than all my hairdressers in the past did. Was this the secret to make me look beautiful? ha ha ha...
At night I met Orlando but this meeting was not a success again. There was a lower-class lady in the street who offended me verbally and I couldn't stay quiet. I had to tell her that you don't offend people you don't know in the street. He was very upset because of my reaction, he prefered that I stayed quiet and carried on our conversation as if nothing happened. Unfortunately I couldn't do this and what's more, I expected him to defend me and in the first place to say something to this lady before I did. His behaviour hurt me a lot.

This morning I had my permanent makeup done (cost: 50 pounds). I had it done in London before but it was semi-permanent, with use of an anaesthetic cream which didn't ease the pain much and it cost 250 pounds. Today it wasn't painful at all because they injected me anaesthetic in the eyelids and under eyes which made half of my head loose feeling. The procedure lasted 40 minutes only (comparing to London: 3 sessions, 3 hours each session). However, the impact of the injections was so big that I came back home and I slept for three hours without my earplugs, in the noise coming through the widow - something I could never do otherwise.
I can't stop admiring how all the beauty procedures are developed here and how many good specialists the South American countries have (especially Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia). Cosmetitians, dentists, hairdressers - they all can easily transform you. Especially dentists were a surprise for me, in Europe they just fix the problem. Here they also focus on how to make your face look better. For example Yeimmy had an operation three years ago. Her teeth are small so her dentist said that with longer teeth she would look better, and he pulled the gums away. After the operation she looks amazing.
In the picture with my wonderful dentist Diana, last but one visit in her dental studio. My red under eye circle is a result of the makeup aneasthetic injection.
