I came for a root dye, and while I was getting my hair done, regulars kept coming in one after another.

What is the atmosphere like at Hair Studio Baekga Yaksu Station?
The inside of Hair Studio Baekga Yaksu Station is clean and comfortable, done in white tones. The interior is really unique, and it caught my eye the moment I walked in.

Rather than just following whatever is trending, Hair Studio Baekga says it talks things through with you first and then suggests the design that suits you best. Their designers work from their own specialties, such as cuts, dyeing, perms and treatments, and they style both men and women. They also keep offering trendy styles like layered cuts, hush cuts, build perms, iron perms, volume magic (a straightening perm), and setting perms.

Can gray coverage root dye keep a light hair color?
Team Leader Hyeon at Hair Studio Baekga explained up front that since my current color is fairly light, a root dye wouldn't cover the gray 100%. I booked with Team Leader Hyeon, who is known for being especially good at root dye, and asked for a result that matches my existing color.
I'd rather keep my hair a light tone than get 100% gray coverage, so I always do my gray coverage in a light color. Team Leader Hyeon looked over my hair, found the right color, and started dyeing.

Can you dye your hair with a sensitive scalp without stinging?
Team Leader Hyeon sprayed scalp protector carefully and generously, so I had my root dye done without any stinging at all. The prep to keep dye off my skin was done thoroughly too.
My scalp is weak, so sometimes when dye goes on it stings and hurts... That's why I always worry about dyeing, but this time none of that happened.

Team Leader Hyeon was meticulous but also quick, and the dye was on in no time. The application felt short. A true professional! While I waited, they gave me tea and snacks, so I wasn't bored.

How were the shampoo and finishing care at Hair Studio Baekga?
The shampoo area at Hair Studio Baekga Yaksu Station is clean too. They checked how the dye had taken, then moved on to the shampoo.


After a thorough shampoo, they applied a scalp scaling product to finish and gave me a refreshing massage. It removed the dye left on my scalp and the massage loosened everything up, so it felt so fresh and good.

Did the root dye match the existing hair color?
The root dye Team Leader Hyeon did came out exactly the same as my existing color, and it looks so good. Team Leader Hyeon handled it personally from start to finish.
Hair Studio Baekga Yaksu Station is a salon with a one-designer, full-responsibility system, which makes it a hair shop I trust more whatever service I get.
