A layered cut and vintage perm turned awkward shoulder-length hair stuck in the 'grown-out zone' into a mid-length style with volume at the front, and the perm came with a coconut-scented hand pack and an acupressure shampoo. The price list is posted in the salon and on Naver Reservations, so even the extra charge for longer hair is clear before booking. ## Good to know - **Location**: 462-6 Sinbu-dong, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, 3rd floor Terminal Plaza (across from Shinsegae Department Store and Olive Young) - **Hours**: 10:30 - 20:00 - **Parking**: Mechanical parking available in the building - **Payment**: Local currency vouchers / mobile pay - **Reservations**: Naver Reservations - **Service received**: Layered cut + vintage perm (mid-length) - **Extras**: Coconut-scented hand pack, acupressure shampoo, drinks (green tea, iced tea, coffee), Ayunche care shampoo and care cream gift *as written by the visitor on Sep 18, 2026* Fall came around and I wanted to switch up my style, so I went to CHOP Hair in Sinbu-dong~~ I'd heard they were great with hair and had been meaning to try it, and today was finally the day. I was sick of blow-drying my hair with a Dyson every single day, so after scrolling Instagram I decided I wanted a vintage perm! It's right across from Shinsegae Department Store in Sinbu-dong, so it's super accessible. If you're driving, you can just use the mechanical parking in the building. ## CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch location and opening hours - Location: 462-6 Sinbu-dong, Chungnam Cheonan-si - Hours: 10:30 - 20:00 - Parking: mechanical parking available in the building - Local currency vouchers / mobile pay accepted I had an errand at Shinsegae, so I parked across the street and walked over. I'd made a Naver Reservation ahead of time — I'd been wanting to try a trending style, so I browsed looks on the Naver Reservations page and found this place. So excited going in. The interior was spacious with a roomy waiting area, which made things comfortable. ![Spacious interior and waiting area at CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-01-1q3au-1200.webp) The inside was really spacious with a full glass wall, giving it an open feel. Once I stepped in, a staff member kindly confirmed my reservation and took my coat and bag for storage. ![Salon entrance where coat and bag are stored after reservation check](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-02-1akq1-m-740.webp) ## How to find CHOP Hair, across from Olive Young in Sinbu-dong CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch is really easy to find. It's on the 3rd floor of a big building right across from the Sinbu-dong Olive Young. Once I got inside, the upscale look made me feel great about getting my hair done after a while. The whole salon has a clean, modern vibe, so it was pleasant the entire time. And that huge open-view glass wall — perfect! It was healing even before the actual service started. ![Open salon interior with a full glass wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-03-1h116-740.webp) ![Modern, clean-styled treatment area of the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-04-1tu2q-740.webp) Overall the vibe is quite upscale. I waited a bit in the area where they store your coat and bag. ![Lounge area for storing coat and bag while waiting](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-05-19vc6-740.webp) ![Seating in the waiting area at CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-06-6ms7d-740.webp) ## Price list posted at the entrance and inside the salon Some salons just charge whatever they feel like, but at CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch there's a price list on Naver Reservations, at the entrance, and inside the salon too, so you can check length surcharges and treatment costs ahead of time — really reassuring. ![Treatment price list posted in the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-07-3coeo-m-660.webp) ![Price guide showing length surcharges](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-08-1qly0-740.webp) ![Service menu board posted inside the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-09-u9pow-740.webp) ![Signage explaining membership perks and prepaid vouchers](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-10-15kli-740.webp) There are various membership perks too, so worth checking out. If you get same-day perks and go regularly, buying a prepaid voucher pack is even more of a deal. ## The consultation before the cut and perm I'd already thinned out my hair myself, so today I came in wanting a light layered cut with a bit of wave to change up the mood. The consultation was really friendly, and they went with exactly the style I wanted. ![Consultation before the treatment begins](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-11-b826p-740.webp) ## How the shoulder-length vintage perm turned out Before the service my hair had no wave and the ends flicked out at shoulder length — the classic 'grown-out zone.' They looked at my hair and went with a vintage perm. It was such an awkward length, and with daily Dyson use my hair was dry and lifeless too. The middle photo is my hair after the treatment. The frizzy, dry ends turned light and healthy without split ends. ![Before-and-after comparison of the mid-length vintage perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-12-13n87-740.webp) ![Wavy hair transformed from the shoulder-length 'grown-out zone'](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-13-uep35-740.webp) They kept damage to a minimum too. They sectioned my hair like this and wound the waves in nicely. I also asked for a bit of volume in the front, and it came out exactly how I wanted. The waves look natural and it's exactly the style I was going for. Love it~~ ![Vintage perm waves curled section by section](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-14-146je-740.webp) ![Mid-length perm style with volume at the front](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-15-1n3ad-740.webp) ![Finished mid-length vintage perm with natural waves](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-16-4ctl1-740.webp) My friend saw it and said the perm turned out great. I told them I'm bad at styling, so they kindly showed me how to manage it — a quick blow-dry, dab on some product, chop chop, and done. On days I need to leave in a hurry, just drying my hair and dashing out is so convenient. ![Perm hair finished with blow-drying and product](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-17-ofudx-740.webp) ![Finished vintage perm styled after learning the technique](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-18-ocbeo-740.webp) ## Acupressure shampoo, coconut hand pack and drinks While shampooing, they asked if anywhere itched and gave me an acupressure massage too. Really thorough. Service was top-notch~! ![Shampoo station that includes acupressure massage](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-19-130bw-740.webp) During the perm I also got a hand treatment — a coconut-scented hand pack.🌱 They had green tea, iced tea, and coffee, so I had the iced tea. Great hair, great service — no reason not to go to a Sinbu-dong salon. I got my hair done by Dajeong-teacher, who made it look so pretty. Prices are reasonable too~ ![Coconut-scented hand pack care received during the perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-20-88kli-740.webp) ![Iced tea served during the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-21-ig5uo-740.webp) ![Waiting for the perm while getting a hand treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-22-6z1py-740.webp) At the end they even gave me care products — Ayunche care shampoo and care cream. If I get the chance later, I want to try the Ayunche clinic treatment too. I'm satisfied with the service, location, and prices, so I'll definitely be back. That's my mid-length vintage perm review, done🤎 ![Gifted Ayunche care shampoo and care cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm-23-1yy0w-740.webp) ## Where it is - CHOP Hair Cheonan Branch (CHOP헤어 천안점) - 50 Mannam-ro, Terminal Plaza 3F, Dongnam-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungcheongnam-do, South Korea - 충청남도 천안시 동남구 만남로 50 터미널프라자 3층 - 36.8186482, 127.1576124 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/CHOP%ED%97%A4%EC%96%B4%20%EC%B2%9C%EC%95%88%EC%A0%90/@36.8186482,127.1576124,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@lunch-queue-3/chop-hair-cheonan-vintage-perm/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
