# Yeongtong, Suwon hair salon: 4-hour magic straightening, Kamiya Hair - By Gaeun (https://superchart.com/en/@busan-early-supper/) - Written Sep 18, 2026 - Local places › Hair & beauty salons › Suwon, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This post was written after visiting the salon and receiving the magic straightening treatment as a provided service from the business. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@busan-early-supper/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@busan-early-supper/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/index.md) ## In short Kamiya Hair Yeongtong is a hair salon on the 3rd floor of Yeju Plaza, near Exit 2 of Yeongtong Station in Suwon, Gyeonggi. Sixteen days before her wedding, the writer booked magic straightening with designer Teddy to tame a year-old wave perm and severe curl, and two stylists worked together to finish in 4 hours with no under-straightened patches. She put off the layered cut and C-curl because of her updo, but her hair still moved and swung after washing it the next day. ## Good to know - **Location**: 3F Yeju Plaza, 1689 Deogyeong-daero, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon, Gyeonggi - **Distance**: 599m from Yeongtong Station Exit 2 - **Hours**: Daily 10:00–20:00 - **Booking**: Reservations available on Naver - **Service received**: Magic straightening with designer Teddy (about 4 hours) *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* ## Why book a Suwon hair salon 16 days before the wedding? My wedding is now less than 3 weeks away!!!! It's D-16 :( Time to go to the salon. I've had this wave perm sitting neglected for almost a year now, and I've always had really bad curl around my sideburns, the back and inner layers of my hair. I get magic straightening once or twice a year without fail, but since moving to Suwon I hadn't settled on a salon, which was really stressing me out. The salon I used to go to in Seoul meant a 3-hour round trip on the subway... 💧 This time I really didn't have the time, so I told myself I absolutely had to find a Suwon salon!!!! That's how I found Kamiya Hair, right in Yeongtong. ### Kamiya Hair Yeongtong: location and opening hours - Location: 3rd floor, Yeju Plaza, 1689 Deogyeong-daero, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 599m from Yeongtong Station Exit 2 - Hours: Daily 10:00–20:00 - Reservations: Available via Naver Reservations ## Before photos: leftover wave perm, curl and damaged hair ![Before photo showing curls and leftover wave perm before straightening](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-01-1iwgm-1200.webp) ![Back view of frizzy, curly hair before the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-02-14n3q-966.webp) ![Before photo showing damaged hair condition](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-03-o7ip1-966.webp) ![Before photo of tangled hair taken at the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-04-vlqbl-m-966.webp) Before heading in for the treatment I was curious how much of a difference there'd be, so I took some before photos and honestly... it's pretty bad haha. The bottom still has the old perm hanging on, and the top is frizzy and curly with a lot of damage. The stylist took more photos at the salon too, and wow — totally tangled, could barely run a comb through it, total chaos haha. ## Why straightening only, and no layered cut or C-curl? Since I'm getting married soon, my wedding-day hair and makeup artist told me not to get a layered cut if I'm doing an updo, so I told the designer I'd probably need to cut it straight across. I actually wanted a C-curl too, but she recommended I skip it, saying a C-curl wouldn't look great with a blunt cut and that straightening alone would look nicer. So I decided to just do the magic straightening!! ## Inside the 4-hour magic straightening at Kamiya Hair Yeongtong Product applied, waiting for the heat processing haha ![Straightening product applied, waiting during heat processing](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-05-1i6jl-m-966.webp) They gave me a drink too, so I waited comfortably ~,~ ![Drink provided during the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-06-10sgg-m-966.webp) Since I have a lot of hair, two stylists worked hard straightening it section by section with the iron.... 🌞 They kept asking if it was tiring to sit for so long, but honestly they looked more exhausted than me.... Neutralizer applied, waiting for the very last step~!! The long 4-hour wait is almost over!! ![Long hair straightened right after the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-07-n6tsw-966.webp) ![Full back view after finishing the straightening treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-08-tx1cw-966.webp) ## The result: not one under-straightened section Wow!!! It turned out so pretty :((( I was worried since my curls were so bad and my hair was damaged, but my hair condition actually improved and there wasn't a single spot left unstraightened!! ![Close-up of smooth, shiny hair after straightening](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-09-wl3h2-834.webp) ![Side view after the straightening treatment was finished](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-10-wsdqq-754.webp) ![Finished straightened hair shown from different angles](https://img.superchart.com/images/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening-11-va131-787.webp) Looks great from every angle haha So smooth and shiny~~!!

A little bit of regret about not being able to do the C-curl this time :(haha, and not being able to do the layered cut either!! Weddings really come with a lot of restrictions haha. That's my record of getting magic straightening from designer Teddy at Kamiya Hair in Suwon Yeongtong. I went with straightening, but I'd recommend this salon to anyone in Yeongtong looking for a layered cut, iron perm, layered perm, and so on haha. They also seemed really good at platinum blonde bleaching!! ## Where it is - Kamiya Hair Yeongtong (카미야헤어 영통점) - 3rd floor, Yeju Plaza, 1689 Deogyeong-daero, Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 수원시 영통구 덕영대로 1689 예주프라자 3층 - 37.2479662, 127.0760258 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B9%B4%EB%AF%B8%EC%95%BC%ED%97%A4%EC%96%B4%20%EC%98%81%ED%86%B5%EC%A0%90/@37.2479662,127.0760258,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@busan-early-supper/kamiya-hair-yeongtong-magic-straightening/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
