💇 Hair salons in Itaewon
3 top-rated salons in Itaewon
Itaewon has the fewest salons of the main areas but the highest concentration of stylists used to non-Korean hair — curly, coarse and textured hair especially, which most Seoul salons see rarely. If previous cuts in Korea have gone badly, this is the area to try.
Will they speak English?
We do not hold language data for individual salons, and we are not going to guess — being wrong sends you into a three-hour appointment you cannot talk through. What works reliably: bring photos of the cut or colour you want, say how much length you are willing to lose, and mention any previous bleach or perm before they start. A translation app covers the rest. Booking ahead also helps, because a salon that knows a foreign customer is coming can put the right stylist on.
What it costs
Across Seoul, a women’s cut typically runs about ₩20,000–50,000, a men’s cut ₩15,000–30,000, a perm ₩100,000–250,000 and colour ₩80,000–200,000. Long-hair surcharges are common and often not on the menu board, so ask for the price at your length before they start.
Worth knowing
The main strip runs up a hill. If you are coming straight from shopping with bags, pick a salon near the station end.
