I shaved my head and never look back

Since transitioning to my new environment nearly 10 months ago, I've never once looked back. Repeat it with me now: never! The serene atmosphere of my current surroundings has prompted me to pen down this blog post, capturing the essence of my newfound positive lifestyle.

Reflecting back on the past, it's astonishing how much my physical health was affected by my previous workplace environment. Almost overnight, my scalp became excessively oily and flaky. It reached a breaking point last December, on none other than Taylor Swift's birthday, when I decided to take matters into my own hands and shave my head. As my hair began to regrow rapidly and luxuriantly, I couldn't help but marvel at its thickness. Yet, this newfound growth came at a cost—I ended up spending close to SGD $2K attempting to remedy the hair loss that plagued me from 2022 to 2023. Unfortunately, my efforts only led to my hair becoming thinner and oilier, with unsightly bald patches dotting my scalp. It's a stark reminder of the unhealthy environment I endured for far too long.

However, dwelling on the past won't change anything. Instead, I choose to focus on the future with optimism and anticipation. I eagerly await the day when my hair fully regains its former glory, and I can once again feel like a true goddess. 😁😁😁

Of course, every cloud has its silver lining, and even my bald head and petite, chubby physique have their perks. Admittedly, dresses may not be my best look right now, but that's a small price to pay for the newfound comfort and confidence I've discovered in my preferred attire: comfy tees and shorts. Long pants have never been my cup of tea, anyway!

In conclusion, I'll leave it at that for now. Here's to wishing everyone a fantastic day filled with productivity and positivity!

Yours Sincerely,
