Restoration perm for damaged hair in Sangdae-dong, Daejeon: Project

Project Lure is a hair salon in Sangdae-dong, Yuseong-gu, Daejeon, on the first floor at the back of the Paik's Coffee building next to Daiso. After another salon refused to perm hair that was too damaged, Project Lure gave a consultation and did a restoration perm instead of a regular perm, working step by step from damaged-hair care solution to winding, an acid rinse and a high-function clinic treatment. The tangled, brittle hair came back glossy, and the new massage shampoo bed made the long appointment easy to sit through.

Even a diner who had never liked hagfish changed their mind at the first bite of the salt-grilled version.
