I can only give you the answer for number 1...Near your wrist?If you wear a watch,can it still be seen?Remember..For the Sarong Kebaya,the sleeves are 3/4..So 3/4 of your arms will be exposed...They are very strict with the ladies...Especially with scars..But if you want to give it a try go ahead..Who knows?.. :roll: :roll:

dear cons,
for ur 1st ques, it's no possibility that u caould cover it with concealer???u've to take off ur watch and what so ever on ur nexk & hands during kebaya session.
a fre of mine has the same situation as urs too n she conceal it with concealer by professional..she managed to pass the round!!!

as for ur 2nd ques,i'm not sure whether if u wear on the sandal provided will ur scar still be that visible for them.they hardly look at ur feet unless something very obvious attracts them..

sQ-StEwaRd-ShazNi, i cant cover it with a watch..it simply look like a mole! :???: on the upper side of the wrist but by e side. i've a fren who got thru n i realise SIA's intake in the recent recruitment are girls who have simple look yet good skin. thanks alot for ur advice but it looks like there's not much of a chance. :shock:

shrapnel, to conceal it by a professional.. hmmm professional like those promoters? i think i'm getting abit overboard.. dying my hair black n jus came home after rebonding. just to look like the decent type they recruit nowadays. :lol: everyone ard me finds me crazy because after so much, there's stil high chance that i may get booted out.
1st, scars on wrist and feet.
2nd, freckle-like moles (not popping out with hair though) :-| on one side of my face.
3rd, i'm just holding an O-level cert (pretty okay results though)
i'm simply a crazy flight attendant wannabe. :o

the thing is, i may be able to conceal it for the kebaya round, but if by luck i got thru to e water confidence round, won't everything ugly about me just appear after i jumped into the cruel water? :cry:

dear cons,
there's no affence of trying right but just dont put too much hope on it..i'm not splashing u with bad signs but as u describe urself as a crazy flight attendant wannabe i'm afraid if u fail during particular round,u'll be extremely sad and disappointed..
just give it a try or a life experience.if cant then it's fated lo...

Dear c0ns,

Don't worry about your scar. Of course it cannot be to visible until with a glance it is still noticeable. Give it a shot, if cannot you can always try in future. But of course you have to do something about it.

Try some scar cream or gel. I got an old scar too, but already lighten it so i got thru the skin check. Go to Guardian, they will recommend it to you.

You can use concealer during the kebaya fitting, but during water test they will do another round of skin check after you come out from the pool, so this time concealer will not help.

Anyway, good luck!

Cheers
