SNIPPETS Rejuvenate Your Hair Seven years ago, a state-of-the-art, plant-based hair spa sprouted up at Wheelock Place, treating common scalp problems. Today, Phyto Hair Science has built a name for itself in the industry as the trichologist of choice, thanks to its signature three-step DSR (Detox, Stabilise, Regrow) programme. Rejuvenate your scalp with a concoction of plants and fruits, customised for the problems plaguing your hair. We also suggest that you go for the excellent optional massage. Now, Phyto Hair Science has a new innovation – DermoPlus. Using a machine, the therapist painlessly introduces the bespoke serum into your follicles, ensuring that your hair receives the ampoules it requires to become the talk about town again. Discover why this salon has won 14 beauty awards in five years for

Purveyors Of Fine Barbering Treat the man in your household like a king this Christmas season with a series of gift packs from home-grown luxury barbershop Sultans of Shave. Each gift pack has been painstakingly curated with only the best brands a contemporary gentleman would enjoy, and appealingly packaged in cigar boxes or limited edition dopp kits.
Toby Wants a Home! Meet Toby, a stray dog saved from the streets who is now living in a shelter and has big dreams of finding a loving home and family. The heart-wrenching story is actually inspired by a reallife dog named Valli that was adopted earlier this year by the SPCA, and is aimed at entertaining and educating children between the ages of four and 12 about the life and times of animals in a pet shelter. Written by Low Hui Ching and illustrated by Antonija Gross, Toby Wants a Home! makes a great bedtime read and is filled with valuable life lessons for both you and your children about commitment and compassion.
Toby Wants a Home! is available from SPCA’s HQ and online at www.spca. org.sg. A copy retails at S$5 and all proceeds go to SPCA to continue its mission to help animals. SPCA’s HQ is located at 31 Mount Vernon Road and is open between 10 am and 4 pm on all days except Thursdays, Sundays and public holidays. The SPCA is closed on Thursdays and operates from 11 am to 3.30 pm on Sundays and public holidays. 6
