Hair And Skin Care

Kadang2 dtg angin rasa mcm nak chop chop chop rambut si Aisyah ni kasi pendek, tp skali pikir, mcm sayang giler, sbb rambut dia lambat nak tumbuh. Or more correctly, growth rate dia tu normal je, tp sbb rambut dia curly, x terzahir sgt. Kalo lps mandi mmg nmpk la panjang, tp once dah kering, toinggg dia pergi bergulung2 balik, terus nmpk rambut dia pendek. Satu lg, aku terpikir je, org kata kalo rambut curly2 ni kita kerap potong curls dia, nnt2 rambut dia jd kurg curls, yg jd straight terus pon ada (ye ke? or id this pure hearsay? As a scientist, I have my doubts sbb as far as I know, kalo you carry curly hair genes, bukan forever ke they stay with you?).


Anyway, in an attempt to see how she would look like with short hair, here are some pics:






I think budak2 yg rambut pendek (kerat mcm anak2 amoi slalu buat), adalah sgt cute. Certainly would return Aisyah her chubby baby cheeks that we sorta lost now. But then again, I guess I'll keep her hair as it is now lah, trim sesekali je, bcoz it's easier to manage for school (ponytails, plaits, buns - it is my guilty pleasure jgk anyam rambut dia ni).


Dalam gmbr ni muka dia berminyak, sbb baru lps sapu Vaseline kat muka. This winter has hit her skin really hard, kering2 sampai flaky apa semua. Sampai kena gi klinik jumpa Dr tahu? (sila gasp ye, sbb kat UK ni selagi x betul2 kronik x de nya dpt jumpa Dr. Even then, dah 1 week book baru dpt jumpa tau, sian anak I dkt 2 minggu kulit dia kering giler2 sbb nak tggu ppointment, tahap buh losyen pon nangis coz it stung).


Skali pegi, Dr sah kan dia kena eczema. Mmg agak teruk, especially kat muka, area around mata tu, sampai dah jd sepet korg tahu, kes kulit kering dan area around mata membengkak. Muka dia sejibik mcm org baru bgn tido, dgn mata sepet dan white flaky skins tu, walhal dah mandi apa semua, oh my poor baby.


Nasib baik Dr yg rawat dia ni very baik and sympathetic, jarang nak dpt Dr cam ni kat UK. Maybe dia mmg naturally baik, or dia bole relate sbb dia ckp anak bongsu dia pon eczema jgk. Siap bg 2 tub emolient, 1 tube hydrocortisone, 1 tube apa benda ntah x ingat nama (but a stronger steroid cream utk badan). Also kena amik antihistamine daily, utk kurg kan kegatalan dan swelling. X pernah2 dpt prescription seganazzz ini, seplastik ko...


Alhamdulillah, her skin has improved, altho still kena pakai lg cream tu twice a day. Agak terkejut coz she has been living here for 4 winters already, x pernah plak kena. Tup2 skang ada, tp as long as manageable, x apa lah, Alhamdulillah.

kesiannya Aisyah.. moga cepat sembuh.

Tapi memang mencabar kan duduk di negera 4 musim ni. Anak sulung Kak Nida tak pernah2 kena asma sejak duk NZ ni terus kena... kalau kulit tak usah nak cakap ler, bila musim panas mesti gatal2 satu badan sebab kering...

k nida: oo ye ke? saya ingatkan kalo sejuk & kering je yg ada masalah kulit, rupa kalo panas & kering pon sama je gatal nya. mungkin UK ni x pernah panas betul kot, asyik spring je, susah nak jejak 25C ke atas. tu yg x perasan tu

aaron pon eczema. his skin is dry and nampak dia try garu2. i bath him in water infused with oil (dalam dia ada soya oil) yang beli kat farmasi and pakaikan dia sunflower oil cream. so far so good. tapi acts up if i makan telur. hikhikhik.

sabb: tu la, masalah nya eczema ni mcm ada link dgn food allergies jgk. sbb hari tu sampai sepet2 mata aisyah like she ate something wrong and got an allergic reaction. siap kena amik antihistamine lg, so x tau la apa benda sbnarnya yg dia allergic lg
