Curly hair cut in Cheongdam, Seoul

Curly hair cut prices

Curly hair is priced as a haircut. Choose the level when booking, and the stylist confirms the final amount after seeing length and condition.

Prices follow the salon’s Naver Place listing (October 2026). The price also depends on the stylist’s level, hair length and hair condition, and your stylist confirms the final price before work starts.

Why curls need a different plan

A curl is a spring. When it is wet and stretched it looks long, and when it dries it contracts. A cut that looks right wet can be much shorter once dry, sometimes by several centimeters. Curls also differ across one head: the hair at the crown may be tight while the nape is loose.

That is why a stylist who works with curls will want to see your hair in its natural state. Arrive with your curls as you normally wear them, not flat-ironed, and not weighed down with heavy product.

Natural curls and permed curls

The page covers both natural curl and curls made by a perm. Natural curl has a fixed pattern that you cannot choose, only shape. Permed curl is chemically set and gets a new pattern, which also changes how the hair should be cut. If your curls come from a recent perm, tell the stylist the date and the type.

If you are considering a perm to go with the cut, the perm services overview gives the range of options. Many guests cut first and perm on a later day, since the shape guides the curl size.

How curly hair is cut

Stylists commonly cut curly hair in one of two ways. In a dry cut, the stylist works curl by curl on dry hair, so each spring is judged at its real length. In a wet cut, the hair is stretched and cut in sections, with extra allowance for shrinkage. Many stylists combine both, finishing dry.

The goal is a balanced outline, not a flat line. Without shaping, curly hair forms a triangle that is wide at the bottom. Removing weight in the right places lets the curls stack evenly and bounce. Ask the stylist which method they plan to use.

What to bring and what to say

• A photo of your natural curl pattern on a day you like it.
• One or two photos of a finished shape you want, with similar curl.
• The date of any perm, color or bleach, which change how curls behave.
• Your routine: do you air-dry, diffuse, or use styling cream?

Say what bothers you. Common answers are width at the bottom, flat roots, frizz or uneven curls. The stylist can tune the cut to fix that specific issue.

How stylist level changes the price

The menu lists two haircut levels: Designer at ₩44,000 and Director at ₩120,000. Both prices come from the Naver Place listing. The final price depends on the stylist level you book, your hair length and its condition, and the stylist confirms it before work starts.

Curly hair rewards experience in reading curl patterns, so some guests prefer a Director-level cut for their first visit and use Designer level later to maintain it. This is a common approach and not a rule. Ask the stylist on the booking page if you want a recommendation.

Keeping curls in shape

Curly hair tends to be drier than straight hair, so moisture matters more than length. Wash gently, condition the ends, and avoid brushing dry curls. Scrunch a small amount of product into damp hair and let it dry without touching. Trim every eight to twelve weeks to keep the outline, a general range.

The salon is open Tuesday to Saturday and closed Sunday and Monday. You can compare cuts on the curly and thick hair guide, then reserve using the booking steps.
