Dongtan hair salon matte brown to calm reddish long hair: Juno Hair

When I want to change only my color and keep my long hair, the first thing I wonder is how different the mood will be after dyeing. This time I visited Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch (준오헤어 동탄솔빛나루점).

I got an all-over matte brown dye from designer Bom-i. Before, my hair was a warm brown with a reddish tinge, and after the treatment the overall color felt much calmer. Even without a big cut or a style change, a different color changes the impression of your hair, right? This time I especially liked that the long-hair mood stayed the same while the color was neatly toned down.

Where do you enter the parking lot at Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch?

Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch is on the 2nd floor of Jeongrim Plaza. Drive in via the one-way street and use the parking entrance on the building across from GS Fresh. At a place you've never been, it can be hard to spot the parking entrance even when you check the address.

If you check this location before visiting, you won't have to circle the area looking for the entrance. The underground parking in the building was convenient too, so people driving to a Dongtan hair salon can worry less about parking.

Salon atmosphere: warm wood tones and an open space

Walking into Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch, the wood-tone floor and furniture catch your eye first. With black frames and deep-colored walls added, the whole place felt calm yet warm.

Each seat in the treatment area has a mirror, and light comes in from the windows, so it felt less stuffy. Dyeing means sitting for a long time, so the atmosphere inside the salon quietly matters, doesn't it?

The space is wide open, so nothing felt cluttered while I was getting my hair done, and I could see the whole salon from my seat. If you're the type who looks at the atmosphere of the place you'll be sitting in, not just the menu and prices, when choosing a Dongtan hair salon, this calm interior is worth a look.

Why did I choose matte brown all-over dye?

My hair before dyeing was long and an overall warm brown with a reddish tinge, so I chose all-over matte brown to calm it down. The parts catching the light looked a bit redder and brighter, so the color seemed to change whenever my hair moved. Because the color of long hair shows all at once, I was curious how the mood would change after dyeing.

Matte brown is a color to consider when you want to keep your existing brown mood but tidy the color into something calmer. That said, dye results vary with your existing hair color, history and condition, so it's best to talk through the direction you want in a consultation before the treatment.

Consulting with a color chart and hair samples

Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch had color charts in many shades and hair samples. Even within brown, the details differ quite a bit: a strongly red brown, a yellowish brown, a calm, muted brown.

I figured that instead of vaguely saying "brown, please," it helps the consultation to talk about the tone you want and the colors you want to avoid. For example, if you want less redness or don't want your hair to get too dark, it's good to say so in advance.

Even the same matte brown can look different depending on the color left in your hair. This dye was mainly about shifting the mood from a warm brown to a calmer one. Comparing before and after, the direction I had in mind when choosing the color showed up well in the result.

What do the dye menu and price guide look like?

Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch also has a café menu, care passes, a premium membership and a color ritual guide. Even if you came only for dyeing, you might get curious about the care menu or pass options. The salon has information on hand, so if something interests you, check it before your treatment and ask the staff.

The price guide was divided into membership, perm, color, care, and cut/dry menus.

Treatment prices can vary with the menu you choose, your hair length and the consultation. Please check the exact amount with the salon before visiting.

How did the all-over dye on long hair go?

Once the matte brown all-over dye started, it took a while to apply color to all that long hair. With this much length, applying the dye wasn't done in one go but step by step. After the dye was applied, my whole head of hair started to look covered in a color different from before.

Before it's finished, your hair is wet and covered in dye, so it's hard to tell right away what the final color will be. So during the treatment I didn't try to guess the result and just waited for the color after the shampoo and blow-dry. Since this was changing the whole color while keeping the length of my long hair, I was even more excited to see the dried color at the end.

The shampoo area and a tea break

After the dyeing process, I moved to the shampoo area of Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch to rinse my hair.

The treatment area and shampoo area are separate, so after dyeing you move seats for the shampoo. After dyeing, the leftover dye is washed off your scalp and hair before moving on to the finishing steps.

Tea and biscuits were also set out on the table. During a long treatment you need a short break, and I could catch my breath over some warm tea.

When dyeing, it quietly matters that your time in the salon feels like a bit of a relaxed break rather than just time spent getting your hair done.

Hair product displays and booking info

On one side of Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch, hair products are on display, so I could look around while waiting for my treatment.

If you're wondering how to care for your hair at home after dyeing, you can mention the products you usually use or your hair concerns and ask what care you need. Choose products after checking they suit your hair condition and purpose.

The salon also has Naver booking information. Juno Hair Dongtan Solbitnaru Branch runs on reservations, so if you want a specific time, check availability before you visit.

How did the color change after matte brown dye?

After the all-over matte brown dye, the redness settled down a lot and a calm brown tone took center stage. I checked the finished color after shampooing and drying, and before the treatment the warm brown and reddish tinge had stood out all over my hair.

It wasn't a style where the color turns very bright; it felt more like the mood of my existing brown was toned down into a tidier impression. The length stayed the same, so I liked that I kept my familiar style and only added a color change. With long hair the color runs all the way to the ends, so the overall shade really shows, right? After finishing, my whole head was tidied into a calm tone and the difference from before was clear.

Before and after comparison

Putting the before and after side by side made the change from this treatment even clearer. If you want to change your whole color while keeping the length, or calm down a reddish brown a bit, a matte brown consultation could be a good idea. Just note that dye results vary from person to person depending on your current hair color and condition, so bring a photo of the color you want and talk it through fully before the treatment.
