Root dye for faded color and aroma massage at Sinchon salon Demon Hair

I've been really into hair care lately, getting clinic treatments regularly, but this time my roots were coming in and my whole head needed a refresh, so I went to Demon Hair Sinchon Branch, a Sinchon hair salon!

I have genetic gray hair, so I get root touch-ups pretty often. But after getting clinic treatments recently, the color had faded a bit overall, so there was a visible gap between my roots and the rest of my hair, making it look kind of patchy 🥲

So today, while looking for a good place to dye hair in Sinchon, I got a root touch-up along with a cut to clean up the damaged parts!

Where is Demon Hair Sinchon Branch, and how close is Sinchon Station?

📍 Demon Hair Sinchon Branch is at 87-4 Sinchon-ro, B-dong 2F, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, about 58m from Sinchon Station Exit 1. It's really close to the station, so I liked the location right away.

If you're looking for a place near Sinchon Station for a layered cut or dye job, the accessibility here is pretty great.

Inside Demon Hair Sinchon Branch: full-height windows, open and airy

🤍 The Demon Hair Sinchon Branch interior had a clean, all-white tone overall.

I especially loved the huge floor-to-ceiling window on one side — it kept things from feeling stuffy even after sitting in the salon chair for a long time.

It was a bit cloudy the day I visited, which was a shame, but on a sunny day the light coming through that window with a view of the Sinchon streets would probably look even prettier haha.

Stylist Yerim's consultation at Demon Hair Sinchon Branch

A consultation that pins down the style you want, fast

💇🏻‍♀️ I was seen by stylist Yerim at Demon Hair Sinchon Branch, and she was so kind! What I liked most was how quickly she figured out exactly what style I wanted.

Sometimes it feels a bit much when a salon keeps pushing extra suggestions, but she listened to what I wanted first and then told me exactly what my hair needed given its current condition. She got it right away without me having to explain at length, which made the whole consultation feel really comfortable.

And I was surprised the price was so reasonable! Root touch-ups aren't a one-time thing — you need them regularly. So price matters a lot, and considering the location and the service, I was really satisfied.

Why I needed a root dye: patchy gray and faded color before the service

🖤 Before the treatment, my hair looked a bit patchy overall since the existing color had faded. It's hard to see in photos, but when I parted my hair, quite a lot of gray strands were showing through🥲

Since my gray hair is genetic, I have no choice but to get root touch-ups often, and this time it bothered me even more because the color had faded further from recent clinic treatments.

So instead of forcing a full dye job, we decided to focus on cleanly dyeing the necessary root areas and cutting away the damaged parts. She applied the dye carefully and kept checking in to make sure I was comfortable throughout.

A layered cut to clean up the damaged ends

✂️ After the dye, she cut away the parts that looked damaged and messy. When the ends are damaged, no matter how much you blow-dry, it looks frizzy and the overall hairline doesn't fall nicely — but once the damaged parts were trimmed, it looked much calmer.

I was especially happy that she kept my length as much as possible while still shaping it naturally! If you're looking for a good layered cut at a Sinchon hair salon, it's worth telling them the length and vibe you want during the consultation — they'll tailor it to your face shape and current hair condition.

The result: root dye, layered cut and blow-dry

✨ The moment I looked in the mirror after it was all done, I loved it haha. The roots were neatly blended and the color connected naturally with the rest of my hair, looking way cleaner than before.

With the damaged ends trimmed away, my hair itself looked much calmer overall, and after the cut, the layers flowed naturally, making my face line look prettier too!

The final blow-dry was done so nicely — not overly styled, but with natural volume and the ends curling in nicely, exactly the style I like 🤍 It was almost a shame to go straight home after getting my hair done lol.

The finish: an aroma oil shoulder massage

🌿 After my hair was done, she let me pick an aroma oil myself and gave me a shoulder massage. Sitting for a long time through the dye and cut can leave your neck and shoulders a bit stiff, so getting a fragrant aroma massage at the end really felt like being properly taken care of!

From the first consultation to the very end, everything was handled so carefully, which made the whole visit even more satisfying.

I got a root touch-up and cut at Demon Hair Sinchon Branch, a Sinchon hair salon, and overall I was really happy with the results. It was easy to get to since it's so close to Sinchon Station, the price was reasonable, and most of all, I loved how quickly stylist Yerim understood exactly the style I wanted.

If you're like me and need to find a place in Sinchon for regular gray coverage, or you're looking for a good spot near Sinchon Station for a layered cut, this place is worth checking out. I was satisfied enough that next time I want to change up my look, I'd even consider getting a perm here in Sinchon! Root dye, cut, blow-dry, and finally an aroma massage — I left feeling really good about the whole experience💇🏻‍♀️✨
