Anyone else worried because the hair on the crown keeps going flat?

Today I'm bringing you a review of Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch, a Gwanggyo hair salon that does a great root volume perm!

What's the atmosphere like at Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch?

The waiting area at Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch is nicely set up, so waiting was comfortable too.

One thing to know: they don't serve tea here. But that makes it feel like they focus on the treatment itself, which honestly made me trust them more 👍 It's a perfect Gwanggyo salon for people who care about the result more than extras!

💡 They do give you water and candy instead, so keep that in mind!

What is a root volume perm?

A root volume perm is done at the roots, where the hair meets the scalp, to stop hair from lying flat against it and bring back volume. Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch does it with a magic iron (straightening iron), and I felt that skill differences between stylists are big for this treatment. That's why you really need to find a place that does root volume perms well!

💡 Results vary a lot with the designer's skill, so read reviews carefully before choosing!

Is a magic iron root volume perm okay if you've been burned by a flat iron?

Designer Lara blew cool air the whole time during the magic iron treatment, so I never felt any heat. Honestly, I got burned by a flat iron once, so I was a bit scared of magic iron treatments 😥 But Lara kept blowing cool air, "hoo hoo," all the way through, so I got through it comfortably.

You can feel real skill in this kind of attention to detail ✨ Even if you're nervous about heat treatments, I think you can relax and go. Lara's skills are seriously great! Highly recommended 👏

What's it like to get a root volume perm and a layered cut together?

I got a layered cut along with the root volume perm. With the layered cut on top of the lifted roots, the whole style felt much lighter and livelier 💖

Before & after

My hair was too long and had no volume on top, which stressed me out, but it turned out so pretty!! It took about 2 hours including the cut. I'd recommend leaving plenty of time!

How was the shampoo at Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch?

The shampoo at Yuwolae Mijangwon Suwon Gwanggyo Branch was so refreshing! 🤩 All the tension from the treatment just melted away when they washed my hair. The strong, confident hands made even my scalp feel fresh, and that alone made me want to go back, haha
