Suwon hair salon thinning out thick hair with a layered cut: Uaroom

In short

Uaroom is a hair salon on the 2nd floor of a building in Maetan-dong, Suwon, Gyeonggi, 299m from Exit 3 of Maetan Gwonseon Station. Designer Soi talked through the options first, then cut thick hair with untidy ends into a layered style, adding natural layers instead of relying on thinning shears alone, so the hair fell lighter and neater. One cut at Uaroom freshened up the whole look, and a return visit is a certainty.

When your hair is thick and the ends get messy, it feels stuffy tied up and heavy when let down.

This time I got a cut from designer Soi at Uaroom, a hair salon in Maetan-dong, and I had a really satisfying experience because she reflected exactly the style I wanted, down to the details. 😊

Where is Uaroom, and what is the salon like inside?

Uaroom is located on the 2nd floor of a building in Maetan-dong, Suwon. From the entrance, I could already feel a stylish atmosphere, and the overall interior was clean and calm, so I felt comfortable the moment I stepped in.

The inside of the shop was also spacious and well-organized, so it didn't feel cramped, and the waiting area was comfortable too, which gave a great first impression.

What was the cut consultation with designer Soi like?

When you meet a designer who really listens to what style you want, the results turn out satisfying too.

Designer Soi, who took care of my hair this time, was really kind from the very first consultation. I told her the concerns I usually had —

  • Ends were very messy
  • Too much volume, making it look bulky
  • Overall heavy, stuffy style

— and she listened carefully and explained, step by step, which direction would work best for a cut, which really built trust. What I especially liked was that she consulted around the look I actually wanted, rather than pushing a style on me.

Before the cut, the ends felt heavy and the overall look was bulky. Designer Soi thinned out the volume properly and added natural layering throughout, which changed it into a much lighter feel.

The moment I looked in the mirror, what I felt was, "My hair is really so much lighter!" It wasn't just thinning shears used carelessly — the layers were brought out naturally, so my hair looked much more put-together and had more movement.

What stood out about the cut at Uaroom

  • A consultation that really listened to the style I wanted
  • A natural layered cut that wasn't overdone
  • Thinning out volume without looking sparse
  • Ends that came out clean and neat
  • Friendly service and a comfortable atmosphere

Even with just one cut, my overall image felt much fresher, so I was very satisfied.
