EC House (Jurong Point)

During my countless visits to Jurong Point, I have never stepped foot into the EC House shop at the far-end corner of the shopping mall even though there were really times when I got tempted to but found better alternatives elsewhere. After much persuasion from my friends few days ago, I reluctantly decided to give it a shot. One, I really need a haircut amidst my busy schedule in university and two, it's sometimes good to try out new stuff.

The moment we went inside, we were greeted "konnichiwa" by the friendly staff, which means good afternoon in Japanese. We proceeded to buy the electronic card coupons from the slot machine located in front of the shop. Then, we sat down on the seats provided as all the hairstylist were preoccupied with their customers currently. It was only a while (say like 5 minutes or so) before it was our turn, in fact my turn for I was the last of the bunch of three of us.

The lady attending to me asked me for the coupon and queried about how do I want her to cut. So I replied short and layered like to . The next thing you know, she was just doing her job, cutting away my strands of hair. Her skills ain't that bad, but sometimes the cut hair landed on my face, which can get really itchy and annoying. She continued snipping away without even clearing the hair now and then. The only good thing was that there's small LCD screen TV showing trailers of most recent movies plus the advertisements. Kinda nice experience to be enjoying the movie trailer clips while having your hair cut.

Moments later. she was done and tada to my new haircut. Quite value for money despite the fact that it wasn't that fantastic. It was a decent one for just 10 bucks. I would definitely come back if only I need a cheap budget haircut.
