Saved By Heaven


It was the day I finally decided that I should get going or else, I will have no other time. I went to Victor Ortega Salon in Mandaluyong where I had my hair rebonded last year. The one who did my hair before already resigned so the receptionist assigned a new stylist to do my hair. He told me that I am going to pay a total of 3000php with all the treatment, I, shocked, told him that I will just go back. :) Then I went to Heaven’s Salon and Spa. An officemate and a friend had their hairs rebonded here so i thought, why not try it there. My package includes Hair Rebonding, “Service all you want” (which consists of treatments eg. Vit.C, cellophane, and the likes), hair cut and an Eat-all-you-can (hmmm.. and I’m convinced!) all for 1400php! Hello savings! :) Later on, I discovered that the salon has 3 floors, 1st floor is the main salon where they do all their services, 2nd was dedicated for washing hair after treatment and for blowdry and the 3rd was for the buffet, and also the room of the owner that arrived after dinner time. 

the waiting/manicure-pedicure area
Out of curiosity and to try if it is indeed true, i asked one of the staff about the ”Eat-all-you-can” promo. He told me that it is only served during lunch and dinner time. Since I arrived at 2pm, he told me not to worry because because their stylist are the ones telling the clients to eat first when dinner is ready before proceeding to blower, cellophane, hair cut, etc.

eat-all-you-can is not a scam! :)

What’s for dinner? they served dinuguan, rice, pasta with red sauce, chopseuy, sauteed vegetables and macaroni salad. I only tried dinuguan with rice and chopseuy. The taste was not bad, just so-so but it would do especially for me who hadn’t eaten lunch. The dinuguan is good! They also have siomai and siopao but I didn’t try them so I can’t tell the taste of it. Anyway, enough of that, I went there for their hair services and not for dinner. haha..  
and the finished product!


and what can I say? i’m soo satisfied! :) better than last year – in terms of the quality and of course, the price!!!
 and my next stop: Banchetto in Ortigas!
