Recommended package for this trip, it is suggested to go to choose clothes half an hour earlier than the original time, because then the service staff can give you suggestions, otherwise there will be many customers in the store later> <Remember to go to the toilet before changing clothes, after going out of the toilet, turn left and then turn left again to change clothes. After changing your clothes, you must add makeup and hairstyle to make it complete, right! Girls can remember to bring their own lipstick, because the stylist will apply the lipstick directly, unlike the salesgirls who will bring a lip pencil separately, so if you mind, remember to bring your own. The stylist's technique follows the trend and even the recent popular blush application method is also kept up🤣. After the painting is finished, of course you need to rent a photographer and a car! It is recommended to choose a sedan, because the weather will be too hot for you to bear >< And in fact, it is much more cost-effective to rent a car to go to the attractions and use the bag directly. My beautiful driver Amanda is a person who can give you enough emotional value. She will also work with my photographer Jastin to come up with many poses and shooting positions. The key is that she will also help with the bag, which is very important for people traveling alone👍. Photographer Jastin is super professional and a person who gives enough emotional value. He also has a lot of shooting ideas, but he is also a person who has a special liking for flowers😂Super cute photographer, I got about 500 electronic files, nearly 600 photos, and it took about 3-4 days to receive them. When choosing scenic spots, you can ask the driver and photographer, or you can choose the scenic spots yourself and let the driver arrange the route. I suggest that you pick some ancient temples you want to take pictures of yourself, so that you can choose ancient temples that are farther and more special, and you don’t have to rent a car to go to those ancient temples, which is completely killing two birds with one stone. Finally, a reminder that because there is an old site at the location, remember to confirm the address of the new site when you leave! So you won’t go wrong. \(//∇//)\

I recommend purchasing the VIP plan. After all, there is not much difference, because the price is higher if you buy it on site, and it is an air-conditioned room. Although I don’t know if I will have the chance to wear the clothes 🤣, the unlimited drinks are very good. Remember to go to the bar to refill them! After all, everyone was watching the game so seriously that they probably forgot to ask if they wanted a refill, hahaha! The competition was quite exciting ~ very exciting, of course, some of them ended very quickly, but it was like we were watching Taekwondo and boxing matches ~ except that in Thailand it was Muay Thai 👍

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. When you enter the store, you will be greeted with herbal tea to moisten your throat. The overall massage is very comfortable. The lights will be turned off before the massage starts. It is easy to fall asleep while listening to the relaxing music. There are also refreshments after the massage. In short, it is recommended!
