TUTORIAL: How to do Hair Spa

Hair Spa is the best way to maintain and enhance the beauty of hair. Hair spa repairs the damaged hair and gives them a new shine. Most of us spend lot of money and time in beauty salons to get hair of our choice. We can easily save this time and money by doing hair spa at home.


First step:
Apply shampoo and conditioner on the hair of the client.
Second step:

apply Hairspa or hairmud accordingly to the hair of the client making sure that you don't miss any single hair.

 Third Step:

get a hot towel and cover it on the head of the client, make sure that you cover all the hair, and cover it again with hair cap.

Fourth step:

after 30-40min. remove the cap and towel and massage the scalp for it to absorb the nutrients of the hair spa that you have applied.
Last step:

dry the hair and comb it and you will achieve the soft hair that you like.

Do Students Learn better via Internet ?

       Students or kids today are born at what we called Digital age. That's why they are expose to the use of the computers or internet instead of using the library and reading books.  Before, students are having a hard time searching the answers of their assignments in Library, today, with internet, students can do their assignments in just on click. The problem here is that students might just copy and paste the content and dont read it. This will lead to misunderstanding of the assignments. The Learning will not take place either.

       The real thing is, yes, Technology helps us to make our life easier, our job is to use it appropriately. The only reason students didn't learn is that they use internet in the wrong ways, instead of studying their lessons, since internet can give them the information that will need, they will just do facebook, chats, computer games, etc.and they will not learn. I admit that i am addict to some social networking sites and computer games, but i am making sure that i will do my task as a student. I will do my assignments and read it with comprehension.

       Technology can be a blessing if we do it or use it in a right and sensible way, it can be destruction if we just use it to fulfill or to do what we want. Technology is not only for our entertainment, it's also for our own development and learning, it help us to engage and to be updated what is happening out there. It help us to get out of our own ignorance.

about me.

       I'm Diana Jane Santiago, 19 years old, currently residing at 175. b kaingin st. tinajeros malabon city. Born on November 20 1992. Taking up Bachelor of Secondary Education Major in Technology and Livelihood Education, currently at 3rd year. The course that i really wanted to took up is Journalism, unfortunately, UCC don't offer such Course that's why i took up my second option which is Education. I fell in-love in this course not only because of my friends here, but also to the learning and the inspiration that it's giving me. I also think that   this is my calling.. Teaching is where i belong. I will Finish my Studies and Be a cool and Kind teacher to my future students, i can inspire them just like how Education inspires me.

       I am a girl that acts like a boy, im not actually what they called "tomboy" but my brother raised me according to what he likes. I didn't play any barbie doll before, i played playstation and computer games. I love music so much, i even play guitar and compose songs. I also like movies like the diary of a wimpy kid, i also like the book of it. I adore guys like Devon Bostick and Logan Lerman. I also like bands like paramore, all time low, every avenue and many more. I Like surfing on the internet, i am an internet addict, i admit it. I am also not that smart and not that good at speaking english but i am doing my best to be good at those things. I love my family so much, i can do everything for them, that's why i am studying so hard for them. and to fulfill not only my dreams but also their dreams.

       Before, when i was a little kid, i said that when i grow up, i will be a doctor, but everything changes, I WILL BE A TEACHER. And that's final. I also want to be the first teacher who has a Punk/Rock Band, i wanted to be the vocals and Lead Guitar. I just thought that it will be cool if we have a teacher like that. I can write songs about Education and by it, i can inspire my Students. Someone tells me that i cannot be a teacher if i have bands, it will ruin my reputation as a teacher, but i told him/her, being in a band doesnt means you are a bad person. I just wanted to express my thoughts in music. A teacher and a Musician is just the same, they inspire others by their works. The only different is that a Musician have his/her songs, the Teacher has his/her students.
