Gwacheon hair salon cut-only long layers, no perm: One & Only Hair

I've come for a women's layered cut, my friend. My hair was so long that I booked a same-day layered cut and headed over. The place is One & Only Hair (원앤온리헤어), supposedly a famous hair salon near Gwacheon Government Complex Station, so come along with me! Step right up~

Where is One & Only Hair Gwacheon Government Complex Station?

One & Only Hair Gwacheon Government Complex Station is on the first basement floor of Gwacheon Government Complex Station Hanyang Suja-in, a 5-minute walk from the station. Going by subway is the easy way to get to the salon I'm visiting today. Keep that in mind when you go, friend.

Same-day layered cut at a Gwacheon hair salon

At One & Only Hair Gwacheon Government Complex Station, I got a women's layered cut on a same-day booking. I'd come to a salon near Gwacheon Government Complex Station, so the layers had better be done properly. Even though it was a same-day booking, the staff were kind and professional. See the clip for the details.

One & Only Hair salon atmosphere and free drinks

I've arrived at One & Only Hair. I liked how very clean the salon was kept. Even with a fair number of reviews piled up since it opened, it still seemed looked after like day one. There were several shampoos, body washes and other hair-friendly products, and browsing them was quite fun.

They also give you a free drink while you wait during the cut. I picked an Americano and orange juice. The Americano was fragrant and clean-tasting, so the wait wasn't boring at all.

Booking on Naver: no wait for your turn

Since it was a same-day booking I got there almost right at opening, yet there were quite a lot of customers. The salon has over 4,600 Naver reviews, and people come because Naver booking is convenient and the prices are listed transparently. As it turned out, they were all regulars of One & Only Hair.

I got a shampoo first and then sat in the chair, and perhaps because I'd booked on Naver, my turn came quickly. I hadn't had a cut in ages, so my hair was very long, but they checked my hair condition and length as a matter of course, so I could leave it in their hands comfortably.

Long hair before wedding photos: how were length and thickness adjusted?

The designer at One & Only Hair did the layered cut to match my request not to cut much length or thickness. Without my noticing, my hair had grown a lot longer than I thought. I'd wanted them not to take much length or thickness off with the layers, and the designer handled it all so well. I booked same-day because I have wedding photos and lots of events, and I was glad the result turned out good.

They made light small talk while cutting, so I wasn't uncomfortable at all. The designers at One & Only Hair were all kind, and I didn't notice time passing. Of the salons I've been to near Gwacheon Government Complex Station lately, this was the most thoughtful.

Extra bangs trim at the finishing stage

They kept asking along the way whether the length was okay like this. I mentioned wanting my bangs trimmed just a little more, and they happily did it. Even though it was nearly finished, they didn't mind at all and tidied my bangs.

Look at the designer's skilled hands. The whole style changes depending on how the layers are made, and she worked wholeheartedly to get a soft, connected look.

The result: long layers from a cut alone, no perm

At One & Only Hair, my long, long-grown hair was tidied with a layered cut alone, with no perm or root volume. Ta-da! My long-neglected hair has been reborn in a layered-cut version. My hair was so long that it felt really heavy for a while, but now none of that is left and it's styled neatly.

If you want natural layers, One & Only Hair is the place. It's a style made only with the layered cut, with no perm or root volume or anything else, and I liked it a lot. Overall I definitely felt more put-together than before.

It's a one-to-one design cut that doesn't overlook any single customer, so it's hard not to like it. It felt like they cut with my head shape and face shape in mind? The texture work on the ends is great. I'm hopeless at styling and can't fix my hair every morning, but now I don't have to worry about that.

A layered cut that's easy to style at home

What I liked most is that it looks quite easy to style alone at home. Often the look vanishes the moment you walk out of the salon, but with this layered cut, just roughly shaking it and drying it seems enough to bring back natural volume. I'm told a little pass with a curling iron gives this kind of look, so I'm already looking forward to it.

Fiddling with my long hair every morning used to be a real chore, but thanks to the wonderful designer, getting ready to go out should feel much more relaxed from now on. On days you need a same-day women's layered cut, do visit One & Only Hair, my friend. It's a salon near Gwacheon Government Complex Station with top-tier kindness.
