Hair & beauty salons in Korea, told firsthand by local bloggers — with photos and Google Maps.
One and Only Hair Gwacheon Government Complex Station branch is a hair salon near the station. I had a four-step Ojuá hair-care treatment after work, which made my tangled hair smooth enough to comb with my fingers, though I was advised to cut the severely damaged ends after my wedding photoshoot.
Tti Art Hair Unjeong Station Branch is a hair salon about a 5–7-minute walk from Unjeong Station in Paju. I received a vintage perm after discussing my damaged, loosened curls, and I liked the finished waves, although I could not recreate the salon styling at home as well as the professional did.
Terra is an esthetic salon about a five-minute walk from Sunae Station in Seongnam, Gyeonggi. I received dry care focused on calves that felt heavy after running and my usually tight neck and shoulders; the attentive consultation and pressure checks made me feel more comfortable afterward.
Ieum Men's Hair Bucheon City Hall Station Branch is a men's hair salon about a five-minute walk from Bucheon City Hall Station in Bucheon, Gyeonggi. Before my wedding, I had a cut and a down perm on the sides and back; the result kept enough length while tidying hair that tended to stick up.
Urban Ground Hair Sangwangsimni Station Branch is a hair salon in Seongdong, Seoul. I went in for outward-flipping medium-length hair and flat straight hair, receiving a layered perm, root-volume perm, and Milbon treatment. The staff checked my hair condition and explained each stage, and I was happy with both the curls and how my hair felt afterward.
Yeum Hair Nowon District Office branch is a hair salon in Nowon, Seoul, where I had gray root coverage and a cut. The color blended naturally with my existing hair, and the cut made my long, heavy hair look lighter without a perm.
Reviah Hair Bucheon Branch is a hair salon near Bucheon City Hall Station in Bucheon. After a one-on-one consultation on my hair length, condition, and face shape, I had a layered cut and C-curl perm while keeping as much length as possible. I liked the naturally falling curls, though the appointment took about 2.5 to 3 hours, including removing my previous perm.
With Me Hair is a hair salon on Dongseong-ro 4-gil in Jung, Daegu, where I had my hair dyed red after discussing its condition and the look I wanted. The treatment took about an hour and a half with a restorative ampoule, and I liked that the color looked subdued indoors but came alive in the light.
Rose Lash is a reservation-only eyelash salon near Jamsilsaenae Station in Songpa, Seoul. I received a mascara-style extension using 9 mm and 10 mm flat lashes in about an hour; the result gave my eyes a clean, defined look without discomfort during the treatment. Building parking is unavailable, so drivers need to use nearby paid parking.
Lamoon Brow is a reservation-only lip semi-permanent makeup studio near Gangnam Station in Seocho, Seoul. I chose a coral shade after a personal color consultation for dark lip tone and an indistinct lip line, and I was satisfied with the natural-looking color and line.
Divers Barbershop Gangnam-gu Office Station Branch is a men-only hair salon near Exit 2 of Gangnam-gu Office Station in Gangnam, Seoul. I went with my fiancé before our wedding photos for a cut and down perm; the stylist considered his curly hair and the shoot date, and the finished Gyle cut looked neat and suited him well.
My boyfriend got a men’s haircut at Juno Hair Guwol-dong Rodeo Branch in Namdong, Incheon. The stylist tidied his thick, high-volume sides to suit his hair texture and explained how to style it at home; we also found the spacious, clean salon and separate kids’ room useful.
