How was the hair of a man who had just had a perm treated?

For my husband's hair, we decided on thinning first, then a down perm, then a design perm. His hair puffs up as soon as it grows out even a little, so a down perm is a must, but he'd only recently had a perm, so his hair couldn't take a strong curl overall. The length was about right, so we decided to thin it out first, do the down perm, and then finish with the design perm.

Inside Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch

The inside of the salon is on the small side, but it was booked back to back, one appointment after another, so it's clearly well known as a salon that does great hair.

While waiting, I got an iced Americano as a complimentary service and sipped it as I waited. This is my husband's hair before the men's design perm. Men or women, you can't underestimate the power of good hair!!

The reason I came to Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch with my husband is that its signature services are the men's design perm and the down perm.

Are Oreudeubi's down perm and design perm good for straight or puffy hair?

Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch is also known as a down perm specialist that keeps the overall volume while neatly pressing down the side hair and the parts that puff up. If straight hair or hair that sticks up is your worry, you'll probably be very satisfied.

The design centers on natural, not-overdone curls that fall softly, so you can style your hair naturally too, and that was the biggest plus of all.

Consultation tailored to face shape and head shape

The designer who took care of my husband's hair customized the perm to his face shape and head shape, and explained everything in detail during the consultation. My husband isn't someone who has a hard time styling his hair at all, but she decided to set the perm so that it would be easy to style.

The biggest plus is that the design takes into account the customer's hair condition and even their lifestyle.

Right in front of Sangwangsimni Station, and booking

And you can't underestimate how close it is to the station! We drove, but being right in front of Sangwangsimni Station is wonderfully convenient!! It's easy to get to for office workers and students alike, so I think that's why so many people visit, and the booking system runs fairly smoothly, so there was little stress from waiting.

If it were closer to our home, I think we'd visit often. That's the biggest shame!!

It was the first visit to Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch for both my husband and me, but we were very satisfied. Overall, I think this Wangsimni Station salon suits people who want neat, natural, effortless-looking men's hair (the Korean "kkuan-kku" look).

Results of the down perm and design perm, and how it holds after 3 weeks

Here's my husband after the treatment at Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch: the down perm made his side and back lines much tidier, and the design perm changed the whole vibe!! I'd give the biggest points to how thorough the consultation was, tailored to the customer's needs.

He usually styles his hair on weekends, and a part perm lives or dies by blow-drying, so the designer showed us how to keep the style easily at home and how to take care of it. Three weeks later, the curl and the style are still holding up well, hahaha.

If you're looking for a place to get a men's cut in Wangsimni, Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch is worth considering.
