Changwon hair salon men's as perm consultation: VOG HAIR

Finding the right men's as perm for me

Guys—are you serious about your hairstyle? I wasn't, originally. I just thought it was fine as long as it looked reasonably neat, so I never settled on a salon or had a particular style in mind. But once I found a definite style that suited me and reflected my taste, I started taking it a little more seriously.

So I began actively looking for salons. After careful consultations and appointments, I would decide for myself whether to stick with a salon; if something felt lacking, I would look for a new style and a new salon that might suit me. Eventually, you end up settling on both a style and a salon.

The style I settled on is basically a parted hairstyle, and specifically, an as perm is my favorite. I have a fairly broad forehead, so an overly wide part does not work for me; a moderately narrow part like an as perm suits me best. The sides needed a down perm to keep them sleek and polished, while the hair from my fringe to the top is fine and lacks strength, so it needed a perm for volume.

When it is styled that way, I even have a better sense of how to dry it after washing my hair. I am not especially good at styling my hair, but I am generally happy if I use a round brush to add volume and lift to my fringe, then let both sides of the fringe flow naturally outward.

This time, I went to VOG HAIR Changwon City Seven Branch in Changwon City Seven and got a satisfying haircut from a men's consultation specialist stylist.

Finding VOG HAIR inside City Seven Mall

VOG HAIR Changwon City Seven Branch, one of Changwon's leading hair salons, is on the third floor of Skycon at Changwon City Seven Mall in Daewon-dong, Seongsan-gu, Changwon, Gyeongnam. There are plenty of good places to eat here, including KuuKuu and McDonald's, as well as cafés such as Starbucks and Mega Coffee. With clothing stores like Nike and H&M and even a CGV cinema, it is also a great place for a date or a day out after getting your hair done.

The parking lot is spacious and free, which is very convenient. It is also handy for grocery shopping at Lotte Mart before heading home. Nearby are the Changwon Exhibition Convention Center (CECO), Changwon Arboretum, Chunghontap Memorial Tower, Changwon Sports Park, Changwon Fatima Hospital, Newcore Outlet, Palyong-dong Furniture Street, Myeongseo Market, and Bansong Market, so keep those in mind.

To get to VOG HAIR Changwon City Seven Branch, park in the City Seven Mall underground parking lot and take dedicated elevators 4 or 5 toward the cinema—it is easy to find that way. It is also nice that the restrooms are behind the salon.

A spacious treatment area and a scalp check

VOG HAIR Changwon City Seven Branch was selected as an outstanding salon in the perm category at the 2025 Naver Popular Style Awards. When you enter, the counter is directly in front of you, and a range of hair products for sale is displayed around the entrance. The price list for hair services including cuts, perms, setting, and coloring is clearly posted, too. You can also get service discounts by joining the membership.

There are several hair designers here, but I had gotten great results when a men's specialist stylist did my hair before, so I chose one without hesitation. Please look forward to seeing how it turned out.

Because there are many hair designers, there are plenty of treatment stations and the space feels open rather than cramped. The shampoo room at the very back has massage chairs, so you can get a massage too. During waiting time in the middle of a service, coffee, tea, juice, and snacks are provided.

Before getting started in earnest, they also check your scalp with a scalp examination device. Luckily, I was told my scalp was close to normal, which was a relief.

My hair before the down perm and iron perm

BEFORE~

These are the before photos I am most embarrassed about whenever I write a beauty post. My hair was in a really shaggy state. It was so messy that I wanted to get it sorted out quickly.

An as perm completed after a consultation of over 20 minutes

Before the service, we had a genuinely serious, in-depth consultation for over 20 minutes. This time, the stylist suggested a down perm for the sides and an iron perm for the rest to create the as perm feel I like, so we got right to it. The cut itself was so good that even the photos right after cutting show how completely neat and nice my hair looked, don't they?!

Then the iron perm, down perm, and other steps followed one after another, and I got even more excited. The stylist's hands were so quick yet meticulous that, while I was getting it done, I naturally kept thinking, ah, my hair is going to look great today. Now, onto the after!

AFTER~

How does it look~? You know how it is: when you get your hair done and love it, you feel great and take loads of photos. I took photos the whole time I was out and about that day. I had dinner plans with a friend, and my friend said it looked good too, which made me feel even better.
