## In short

Geek Hair Wangsimni is a men's hair salon in Seongdong, Seoul, a 5-minute walk from Exit 6 of Wangsimni Station. With a wedding song performance coming up, the writer's husband had a down perm and a see-through dandy cut done by designer Taekyung, and the fringe length and the side and back shape came out clean. There is parking for about 3 cars behind the salon, so Geek Hair Wangsimni is easy to reach by car too.

Today I went with my husband to Geek Hair Wangsimni, a place known for doing men's hair well in Wangsimni~~ Men's hair grows out fast so they have to cut it often, which means the styling actually lasts a pretty short time haha ㅜㅜ My hair is long so I'm fine, but I really wonder how guys manage to go every month haha

## Where is Geek Hair Wangsimni, and is there parking?

Geek Hair Wangsimni is at 9 Majo-ro 1ga-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 1st floor, and it's about a 5-minute walk from Wangsimni Station, so the access from the station is great! Plus there's parking, so it's fine to come by car too! Though I'd recommend calling ahead to check if there's an open spot!

We booked for the 10am opening slot but arrived earlier than expected, so the stylists were still getting ready~ Since we brought the car, we asked about parking first and found there's a lot behind the salon with space for about 3 cars, so we parked and waited in the car for a bit!

You can book through Naver Reservation, so keep that in mind when you visit

The inside of Geek Hair Wangsimni has a stainless-steel feel, giving off a sleek yet clean impression! There were more seats and more space in the back than I expected, so it seemed like a comfortable place to use! Even though we came right at opening time, quite a lot of customers showed up, so I thought — this must be a popular salon haha

## Hair before the cut: the consultation with designer Taekyung

This is my husband's hair before the service~ The fringe had gotten really long and his ears were already covered, giving a stuffy feeling. Plus there was a wedding congratulatory song this week, so it was a schedule that needed a bit more care!

![Consultation with designer Taekyung about the hairstyle](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-10-1ei2g-m-900.webp)

First, designer Taekyung took charge of the styling! He asked what style my husband wanted first, then recommended and proceeded with a style to match. The style my husband ended up going with is called a see-through dandy cut!

## How the down perm and see-through dandy cut were done

![Down perm being applied for the see-through dandy cut](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-11-dwfcu-900.webp)

First he did the down perm. He was meticulous and careful with it~ It looked like the hair was going to turn out pretty, so I was excited!

![Man's hair calmed down after the down perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-12-10enj-900.webp)

![Fringe neatly settled right after the down perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-13-1hcy6-900.webp)

After the down perm, it definitely calmed down a lot!! Even before the cut, it already felt tidy!

![Cutting process to set the fringe length](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-15-byzp0-m-900.webp)

After it was fully dried, he moved on to the cut to bring out the see-through dandy cut look! Taekyung looked it over carefully as he worked, and it kept getting prettier the more he cut. If you cut the fringe too much or leave too much, it ends up looking off, but he got the length just right in a really pretty way!

## The finished see-through dandy cut, front to back

Wow, the hair turned out so pretty that both my husband and I were so satisfied! Dandy just like the name says lol The neck looked much longer too, and it looked great!👍

![Side and back view of the see-through dandy cut](https://img.superchart.com/images/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut/geek-hair-wangsimni-see-through-dandy-cut-18-hz1wq-900.webp)

From the side to the back, a flawless cut haha It felt perfectly clean. He had the wedding congratulatory song the very next day after this haircut, and I was so relieved it turned out this pretty!! Thanks to this, we came home with a lovely haircut~~ If you want to try a see-through dandy cut or you're interested in men's hairstyles, I'd recommend going to find Taekyung at Geek Hair Wangsimni!✨
