As the hot summer turned into cool autumn, I wanted a bit of a change in image, so I went looking for a Seongdong hair salon that could give me proper styling — that's how I ended up at Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch. Wanting to try something a little different from my usual look, I dug through visitor reviews and designer portfolios, and this place had plenty of portfolios close to the style I wanted, so I booked and went.

What the salon looks and feels like inside

The interior of Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch is a toned-down, modern design. Walking in, the clean interior caught my eye first — not overly flashy but sophisticated, and I liked that. The space was also kept tidy, giving the whole place a pleasant feel.

The seats were neatly arranged too, and around them were professional hair care products actually used in treatments, along with various clinic-line products, all tidily stocked.

Why a drop cut and scalp scaling together

What I decided to get at Oreudeubi Sangwangsimni Station Branch was a short men's cut called the drop cut, plus scalp scaling. Before starting the real treatment for a style change at this Seongdong hair salon, I checked my current hair condition — it had been a while since my last cut, so it had grown out shaggy all over and looked a bit stuffy. To fix this, after talking it over with Youngjun, who'd be handling my treatment today, we decided to go with a drop cut along with scalp scaling for scalp care.

How the cut and the scalp scaling work, step by step

The treatment started by lightly tidying up the shaggy hair, and with Youngjun's quick yet careful cutting, the drop cut shape I'd chosen for today began taking form bit by bit. Once the cutting was mostly done, we moved straight into the scalp scaling stage — using a cotton swab to apply a dedicated product evenly between sections of the scalp, and the moment it touched my scalp, a cool, refreshing feeling seemed to spread across my whole head. After the product was applied, a moisture steamer was aimed at my head to supply moisture everywhere, softening up the buildup and dead skin cells clogging the pores.

The shampoo room with massage chairs

After the steamer work was done, I moved to the shampoo room. Unlike typical Seongdong hair salons, there was a massage chair with a massage function installed — lying back for the shampoo while it gently massaged my whole body felt like it melted away fatigue. Youngjun applied steady pressure to press various points on my scalp while shampooing, and finished it off cleanly with no residue left behind.

After the shampoo, I went back to my seat for a light blow-dry, and once my hair was mostly dry, I got a detailed explanation of which direction to dry my hair and how to build root volume so the drop cut shape would hold well.

How the finished men's drop cut turned out

After finishing both the drop cut and scalp scaling at this Seongdong hair salon, I checked out the finished hair — the shaggy, messy feel from before was cleanly tidied up, and the line was well shaped to fit my head. The connection between the side line and back hair fell naturally and sharply, and even the crown and front hairline flow, which had always been hard to manage, were tidied up, making it look easy to blow-dry solo at home.

Once the drop cut came together with a clean look and no overdone feel, I was pretty satisfied — with the overall line tidied up, it felt much neater than usual, and the style was shaped to fit my face and head so I could change my vibe without it feeling like too much. Plus, thanks to the scalp care done alongside it, my scalp felt noticeably lighter too, giving me a real sense of feeling freshly tidied from hair to scalp.
