Seodaemun hair salon C-curl perm with side bangs: Salon de Supullim

Why I started looking for an easy-to-style look for my frizzy medium-length hair

Last winter, I got a trim and a C-curl perm. But the stylist at the time cut far too many layers into my hair, so as time passed it became incredibly frizzy and impossible to keep neat. After that, I became a salon nomad, barely keeping up with root touch-ups while simply growing my hair out.

I am what you would call hopeless with hair styling, so I desperately wanted a naturally pretty hairstyle that would not need any special effort. On top of that, my face is on the rounder side, so I wanted a style that could make it look a little more slender.

After an intense search, I found Salon de Supullim, a hair salon near Seodaemun Station! I had heard that Designer Dana was amazingly good with hair, and I happened to get a wonderful opportunity to receive a service there, so I even took a day off and visited with a fluttering heart.

How did we consult on hair with too many layers?

A kind, detailed one-on-one consultation

The moment I walked in, Designer Dana's signature calm, warm energy made me feel completely at ease.

• Sincere listening: She took all of my worries about my frizzy hair seriously and listened so carefully.
• A tailored solution: Since my hair already had so many layers, she recommended a layered medium-length C-curl perm that would tidy the length while connecting everything smoothly. She also suggested side bangs to softly frame and flatter my round face.

My trust in Designer Dana was limitless! With a “I trust you completely~” mindset, I started the appointment with her without a moment of hesitation!

My transformation with side bangs and a C-curl perm

When the service was finished and I looked in the mirror, I could not help but gasp. The before and after difference was so clear!

Side bangs that frame a round face

Thanks to the side bangs, which created a natural flow along the sides, my round face line looked softer and more slender.

All I have to do is flip my hair forward and rough-dry it with a blow-dryer, and the curls settle into a bouncy yet smooth shape. A perfect dream hairstyle was born—one that looks naturally pretty every morning without any special styling.

I never imagined that my messy hair, which I thought could only ever be dealt with by tying it up, could become this neat and polished.

If you are curious about medium-length C-curl perms and side bangs

Can frizzy hair with lots of layers still get a C-curl perm?

Yes! Through Designer Dana's personalized one-on-one consultation, the layered lines are tidied and the C-curls are shaped with a dimensional line, which controls frizz and leaves the hair looking much neater.

Is it easy to style at home even for someone bad with hair?

Without special brushing or blow-drying skills, simply flip your hair forward and rough-dry it after shampooing. The C-curls and side-bang shape come alive beautifully, making it genuinely easy to manage.

Are side bangs effective for flattering a round face?

The side-bang design softly wraps around the cheekbones and cheek line before sweeping back, drawing attention away and making the face appear much more slender.
