a hair cut from rod alvarez
I always kidded myself that I will make my hair stylist famous someday. I’ve met him in Rod Alvarez (Binondo) a vertical road stretch from St. Stephen School (a Chinese school). He’s very talented and I never (can never) trust my hair to any hair stylist again (I guess). You see, I’ve tried going to the salons in Mall of Asia, Harrison Plaza and Robinsons Manila but I actually run away in one of them if not they’re already closed. When I do go to have my hair done, I’ll tell him what I want and he knew exactly what to do. I ask him what color will best suit me and he suggested a very long name that I never had the chance to find in supermarkets. So he’s really unique in his creative pursuits but very humble in his surface. My current hairdo is like Marielle’s and I never liked short hair because it makes me look fatter than the usual but he was successful in bringing out my full trust and support in him. The story was I went to him thinking I needed a new Marielle look but I was scared so all I can say was “Bahala ka na.”. Imagine our minds must have connected somewhere because he told me without asking me, “We’ll make your hair like Marielle’s”. I now declare him my official hair stylist ^_^
His name starts with the letter F, he’s from the North (up), and very Filiponly. Why is he here? Because Rod Alvarez is one of the beauty salons located in Binondo and they service not only Filipinos but also Chinese. Just like my hairstylist, others who are employed here are very friendly and knows exactly what to do with your hair.
