Mokpo barbershop: men's cut and scalp scaling at Hols Men’s Hair

I needed a haircut right then, and I heard there's a place in Mokpo that's good with men's hair, so we went to Hols Men’s Hair.

Where is Hols Men’s Hair, and what about hours and parking?

What's the atmosphere inside Hols Men’s Hair?

Hols Men’s Hair is a Mokpo barbershop with a standout motorcycle and brick interior. There was a really cool bike parked right inside! My husband usually just goes wherever fits his schedule, but this time, for a change of mood and a bit of self-care, we came to a barbershop that specializes in men's hair. True to the barbershop feel, the motorcycle and brick interior really stand out.

Private room-style booth

Step inside Hols Men’s Hair and you'll find room-style booths where you can get your hair done in private. There's an open area too, but since it's divided into rooms like this, I'd recommend Hols Men’s Hair among Mokpo salons if you want a private appointment.

Shampoo area

This is the shampoo area at Hols Men’s Hair. It has a strongly men-only feel, but the mood isn't heavy, and the manager and the head stylist were so kind that it felt relaxed.

How did the Hols Men’s Hair cut change a "student cut"?

This is the hair we brought to Hols Men’s Hair today. It had been a long time since the last cut and it hadn't been looked after, so it was literally a "student cut". We came because we wanted to turn this into a sleeker style.

We started with the cut. The manager asked what kind of style we wanted, then shaped it to suit the hair and head shape. They worked in trendy styling, which gave me confidence.

They explained things as they cut, so it was easy to learn how to manage the hair and I could picture how it would turn out. You know how sometimes the finished cut comes out totally off and you hate it?! At Hols Men’s Hair I could predict the result, and I was happy with it.

How does the scalp clinic at Hols Men’s Hair work?

We did the scalp clinic along with the cut at Hols Men’s Hair. As the weather got warmer, his head was getting very hot and there was a smell even after washing, so we gave it a go. When they applied the scaling product to every corner of the scalp, it felt so coo~~l, like having the air conditioner on inside my head! Then a warm steam treatment softens built-up residue and dead skin.

The part that touched me: steam on a hot day is a bit warm, right? But they set a fan next to us.. Looking after us like that without being asked, honestly.. so touching.

We had an iced Americano and some snacks, and before we knew it, it was time.

After the shampoo and finishing care, the scalp feels sooo refreshed, cool all the way through, totally satisfied X 100. Add the manager's finishing touch and it feels like heaven. They handled the scalp clinic that's hard to do at home, and did it neatly.

The finished hairstyle after the cut and scalp clinic

And here's the finished hairstyle from Hols Men’s Hair. Razor-sharp sideburns and a back that made me nod along, such skill..! The back, sides and even the front changed into a fresh style, and I love it, oh my.

The shaggy hair turned this neat. Getting the scalp clinic and the cut together made us much happier with the result.
