English Practice: Hair Styling Optimization

Phase 1: Weekly Input (Hair Styling Optimization)

For a long time, I never used any hair styling products. My rule of thumb was simple: don't bother. First, I had no idea how to use them, and second, because I commuted by scooter, a helmet would just flatten my hair anyway. However, everything changed when I sold my scooter and switched to public transportation. As I started growing my hair out, I realized I needed a better solution to manage my look.

I started by learning the basics of hair styling. Now, I mainly use a simple hairspray(GATSBY). It’s a game-changer. It solves the annoying problem of my bangs falling down and covering my eyes. Learning to style my hair was a small step, but it really makes my day better. It’s just a simple way to stay neat and comfortable.


Vocabulary & Phrases

  • commute: 通勤。
  • flatten: 使變平、壓扁。
  • grow out: (讓頭髮)留長。
  • hairspray: 造型噴霧。
  • bangs: 瀏海
  • game-changer: 改變局勢的事物 (關鍵轉折)。
  • neat and comfortable: 整潔舒適的。

Phase 2: Draft My Own Version

In working days, I take a shower after waking up, and use hairspray to keep my grew out bangs up. After that, I commute to Taipei by bus, so I don't need to worry anything will flatten my hairstyle. Commuting by public transportation is really a game-changer, it makes my life more neat and comfortable, though it looks like inconvenient for most of people.


Phase 3: AI Refactoring

On working days, I take a shower right after waking up and use hairspray to keep my grown-out bangs in place. Since I commute to Taipei by bus, I don't have to worry about anything flattening my hairstyle anymore. Commuting by public transportation has been a real game-changer for me; it makes my life much more neat and comfortable, even though it might seem inconvenient to most people.
