# Layered perm and root perm for volume at CHOP Hair, a Jamsil hair - By Onbit (https://superchart.com/en/@steam-by-window/) - Written Sep 17, 2026 - Local places › Hair & beauty salons › Songpa, Seoul - Sponsored: This post was written after receiving the treatment from the business as a sponsorship. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@steam-by-window/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@steam-by-window/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/index.md) ## In short CHOP Hair Jamsil is a hair salon on the 3rd floor of a building near Exit 4 of Jamsil-saenae Station in Songpa, Seoul. Ahead of returning to work, the writer had a cut, a women's layered perm and a root perm at CHOP Hair Jamsil to tame damaged, limp hair. The result was thick, natural curls with root volume that made her hair look noticeably fuller. ## Good to know - **Location**: 3rd floor of a building by Jamsil-saenae Station Exit 4 - **Treatments received**: Cut + women's layered perm + root perm - **Complimentary**: Iced americano, waffle *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* A satisfaction review after getting the women's layered perm that's apparently trending at Jamsil-saenae hair salons these days, done at CHOP Hair Jamsil branch, because I wanted natural curls. ![Finished layered perm at CHOP Hair Jamsil branch, main photo](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-01-1pkcn-1200.webp) I'm about to return to work, and Dodam is getting used to daycare, so while she's there I wanted to change up my hair too. Curls don't really suit me, so I usually kept it straight or with just a tiny bit of curl at the ends — but that meant my hair had zero volume and just hung there limp, so I finally decided this wasn't going to cut it and went in. I showed a few reference styles I wanted, and they said a layered perm would work, so here's my review after getting the full cut-to-perm treatment. ## How to find CHOP Hair Jamsil from Jamsil-saenae Station CHOP Hair Jamsil branch is on the 3rd floor of a building near Jamsil-saenae Station Exit 4. It's very close to the station, so it was easy to find. ![CHOP Hair exterior sign, 3rd floor of a building near Jamsil-saenae Station Exit 4](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-02-h87hn-900.webp) *You can spot it from outside like this* You can spot it from outside like this. ## What the salon interior and shampoo room are like ![Luxuriously decorated interior of CHOP Hair Jamsil branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-03-1mekm-900.webp) The inside of CHOP Hair Jamsil branch was decorated very luxuriously. ![Hair product display near the store entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-04-gcgol-900.webp) The product display you see right as you walk in. ![Shampoo and hair care products on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-05-udqbw-m-900.webp) All the products looked so good I wanted to buy them.. I heard shampoo really matters! There wasn't just shampoo and conditioner but all kinds of hair care products, so it was fun just browsing haha. ![Shelf with various hair products](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-06-1548y-900.webp) *There were various products* There were various products. ![Full-length mirror inside the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-07-ebun6-m-900.webp) There's a mirror here that makes you look super slim? Haha, I was in a good mood so I took a photo. ![Neatly kept waiting area of the salon](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-08-4ux1v-900.webp) This is the waiting area, and it was kept comfortable and clean too. ![Waiting area with a table and chairs](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-09-eji9a-900.webp) Looks like another waiting spot. The table and chairs were set up comfortably, so it seemed like a nice place to relax. ![Plush chairs in the waiting area](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-10-1fudz-900.webp) *The chairs are plush too* The chairs. They're plush too. ## BEFORE: damaged, limp hair with no volume My hair style. The ends were so damaged, ugh. I did get a perm last year but it had all fallen out, leaving it limp and hanging. I wanted to just cut off the ends lol. ![Side view of damaged hair before the perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-11-7zjwh-900.webp) The side view is even worse. That side seems to have more damage. ## How the women's layered perm and root perm were done Before really getting started, CHOP Hair Jamsil branch shampooed my hair first. ![Comfortably lit shampoo room at CHOP Hair Jamsil branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-12-1ia8c-900.webp) The shampoo room was clean and the lighting was comfortable too, so I enjoyed relaxing during the shampoo. ![Before-treatment hair condition](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-13-z7ole-900.webp) My before hair. Those bangs weren't cut by me — my baby hairs just grew out that way lol. Postpartum hair loss is really scary, ugh. Still glad it grew back. ![Back view of hair before treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-14-8mos7-900.webp) *Back view* Back view. ![Front view of hair before treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-15-1metp-m-900.webp) *Front view* Front view. ![Iced americano served during the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-16-1o4sb-900.webp) They gave me coffee during the treatment. The iced americano was really good haha. ![Getting a root perm treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-17-xo6l1-900.webp) They said my roots looked really flat so they gave me a root perm too. Seriously, do the root perm — twice, three times even. Once this took, my hair looked so much thicker, loved it. ![Rolling process for the layered perm](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-18-18t84-900.webp) And then they diligently rolled it all up. ![Waffle and syrup served during the perm wait](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-19-ojru2-900.webp) They gave me waffles too. This place is a waffle spot!! I thought it'd just be a so-so waffle but it was genuinely delicious haha. Crispy and perfectly cooked. There was syrup underneath too, and dipping it in that while sipping the iced americano was seriously wonderful 💛 ![Hair wrapped in rods](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-20-1tx2i-900.webp) *Getting rolled up* Getting rolled up. ![Relaxing during the perm waiting time](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-21-d6z5j-m-900.webp) Some downtime ~~~ let me relax a bit while Dodam's at daycare, mommy's turn. ## AFTER: natural curls and root volume ![Finished layered perm after the treatment](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-22-xods6-900.webp) After the treatment. Exactly the style I wanted!! They cut off the damaged ends nicely so my hair felt way more polished, and overall the volume came back. ![After photo showing revived root volume](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-23-zz2ng-m-900.webp) Especially the root volume came back to life!! My hair looks so much thicker, ugh, I'm moved. The curls were just the right amount too — not too much, nice and natural. ![Layered perm finished with natural curls](https://img.superchart.com/images/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm-24-v8wt7-900.webp) Thank you so much, deputy director, thank you haha. ## Is CHOP Hair Jamsil worth a visit? This is the Jamsil-saenae hair salon I visited for a refresh before returning to work and to fix my damaged, limp hair — CHOP Hair Jamsil branch, where I got the women's layered perm. After cutting off the damaged ends and adding thick, natural curls, plus a root perm that brought back root volume, my hair looks so much thicker and more alive now, love it. The deputy director did such a great job that I left feeling comfortable and satisfied. Now I just need to actually take care of my hair, ugh!! ## Where it is - CHOP Hair Jamsil Branch (CHOP헤어 잠실점) - 3F Gyeongjung Building, 4 Olympic-ro 12-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 송파구 올림픽로12길 4 경중빌딩 3층 미용실 - 37.5112341, 127.082814 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/CHOP%ED%97%A4%EC%96%B4%20%EC%9E%A0%EC%8B%A4%EC%A0%90/@37.5112341,127.082814,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@steam-by-window/chop-hair-jamsil-layered-perm/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
