Ryunît Yeonnam | Our Visit
Today, we visited Ryunît Yeonnam, located near Hongdae, with a female model who received the "dye + cut + care" treatment and a male model who received the "perm + cut" treatment.
As we underwent different procedures, we were able to see at a glance how Ryunît Yeonnam conducts consultations and creates styles.
From here, Our editor will introduce each step of the procedure and the atmosphere at Ryunît Yeonnam, based on their firsthand experience on site.
As soon as I entered the store, I left my belongings and changed into a gown to get ready for the treatment.
For your reference, Ryunît Yeonnam offers luggage storage, so you can visit without any worries right after arriving in Korea or before your departure!

After being shown to our seats, we first chose our drinks and snacks.
Our editor had never seen a hair salon that offers such a wide variety of snacks!
It's not just simple snacks—they provide hearty options like yogurt with granola or bread with jam, enough to serve as a meal replacement. Even if your treatment takes a long time, you won't feel hungry and can relax much more comfortably.
Everyone receiving the treatment can enjoy it for free~!
However, they mentioned that since a lot of hair can fall during a haircut, they usually only recommend drinks.
Before starting the dyeing process, we first had a color consultation.
The model brought reference photos of the style she wanted, and having photos like this makes it much easier for the designer to understand the desired color direction, so the consultation went much more quickly.
Even if you haven't prepared any references, there's absolutely no need to worry!
If you make a reservation through Creatrip, the designer will personally recommend the color that best suits your current hair condition and vibe, based on your personal color and face shape~!
The model brought a photo of the chestnut brown color she liked, which she had seen on Instagram, and showed it to them.
They calmly explained how the color would turn out on my current hair while showing me the color chart.
Based on the current condition of my hair, I was advised that ash tones, which help neutralize redness, would suit me best. We looked at the color chart together, and they suggested going for a soft ash brown shade.
They explained that the direction was based on the actual hair condition and the color chart to achieve results closest to the reference, which made choosing a color much easier.
The director, who has over 10 years of experience, personally provides consultations, so we were even more excited for today’s procedure thanks to the detailed advice!
Before starting the dyeing process, a scalp protector was carefully applied first.
As a step to reduce irritation that may occur when hair dye comes into direct contact,
After applying the protective solution, there was a short waiting period to allow the scalp to stabilize.
Thanks to these preparation steps, it seemed that even those with sensitive scalps could undergo the dyeing process with relatively little discomfort.

After finishing the dye consultation, I was served a snack, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much better the quality was than I expected!
It's not just a simple snack—toast with jam and even a drink are served like a proper meal, so the waiting time for your treatment won't feel boring at all.
They thoughtfully provided magazines as well, creating the perfect atmosphere to relax and pass the time comfortably while waiting!
The model's hair was quite dry, so we added an extra treatment.
If you opt for the care treatment as well, they say they spray a protein ampoule onto the dye before applying it.

After a brief wait, the dye application began in earnest, and the process moved at a remarkably fast pace.
Depending on the situation, usually two staff members apply the treatment at the same time.
By following this method, the application time for the dye doesn’t get prolonged, which reduces the chances of uneven color patches and results in a much more even overall color.
Even though the model had quite long hair, the application was finished quickly, so you could really sense the skill and experience of the designers!
The application of the hair dye was finished in no time!
While applying the product, they continuously checked the condition of my hair and advised that, since my hair is currently a bit dry, it would be good to use treatments or essences regularly.
They also checked in from time to time to see if there were any stinging or uncomfortable areas, so I felt like I was being carefully looked after throughout the entire procedure.
For your reference, both the ear caps and dye capes used here are disposable products!
They pay close attention to cleanliness and hygiene, so I felt comfortable receiving the treatment.
[Image Slider]
The time required for dyeing varies depending on your hair type and current hair condition, and the designer took care of checking this as well.
From the moment the application began, they carefully kept track of the time and adjusted according to the condition, so I didn’t feel unnecessarily anxious while waiting.

The care step continued in a private spa room located inside the shampoo area.
If you choose a care service, you can receive it privately in a separate space like this.
The lighting could be adjusted to a soft glow, creating a calm atmosphere, and it was definitely an advantage that you could comfortably lie down and receive the service without worrying about outside gazes!
"Ryunît Yeonnam" does not use low-quality products, but only professional products that take into account the condition of your hair after coloring or bleaching!
Especially if you add the care option, they will also use care products specifically for coloring procedures.
There may be trace amounts of metal particles left in hair dye, and if these accumulate, they can cause hair damage.
The color care shampoo and mask used help remove these metal residues, while also preventing the dryness that often occurs after coloring and helping the color last longer.
Now, let me explain the care steps!
After cleansing my hair with shampoo and treatment, I finished with a scalp pack as the final step.
The scalp pack is always included as a basic service, even if you don't add any extra care!
This step soothes the scalp, which can become sensitive after dyeing, so it felt like a stable way to finish off the entire treatment.
After applying the scalp pack, it was followed by acupressure.
Since they use a method that relieves tension by pressing acupressure points, it seemed like my scalp, which had become sensitive after dyeing, would feel much more comfortable.
The care process didn’t feel like just a simple treatment—it truly felt like a stage where I could genuinely relax.
The next step after the acupressure was mist care.
This is a process where a warm moisturizing mist is evenly sprayed over the entire scalp and hair to help the active ingredients absorb effectively.
My previously dry scalp felt moisturized and refreshed as the treatment was completed.
During the mist treatment, the lighting was dimmed softly, and I appreciated being able to relax alone in the care room.
Even though it was a short time, I truly felt well taken care of and able to relax.
After finishing the shampoo and care, I returned to my seat, where they applied aroma oil and gave a simple massage to relax my shoulders and neck.
This step helps relieve the fatigue that has built up during the long procedure, so it feels like not only your head but your overall condition is being cared for.
During the cut stage, the director personally checked the condition and consulted with me once again.
After thoroughly considering your hair thickness, current style, and desired design together, you’ll have plenty of time to discuss and decide how you want to finish your look, making the process feel very meticulous.
'Ryunît Yeonnam' uses a system where the direction of the treatment is decided together based on each individual's hair condition and style needs, resulting in more consistent outcomes.
Afterward, the haircut began right away according to the direction discussed during the consultation.
They continuously checked with a mirror throughout the process to ensure the lines and balance were just right, which made the experience feel even more reassuring.
The director has extensive experience conducting training sessions and seminars abroad on multiple occasions.
Perhaps thanks to that, their expertise naturally showed through in the haircut and finishing details.
After the haircut was finished, they used a dryer to smooth out the overall flow once more.
They dried my hair while guiding it to fall naturally, so I immediately understood how to blow-dry it at home for the best results.
They kindly explained where to add volume and even pointed out the key areas to focus on when styling by hand, so the whole experience felt attentive right up to the end!

Seeing the before-and-after photos together, the difference is clear, isn’t it~?
The model was slightly concerned about the reddish tones in her hair and her grown-out roots, and she also wanted to trim the length a bit.
It felt like Ryunît Yeonnam understood exactly what I wanted: to create a calm overall tone while keeping the space from feeling stuffy.
The color naturally toned down the redness, and the cut refined the lines without overdoing it, making my face shape look cleaner and more polished.
They were able to understand exactly what we wanted without any complicated explanations and took care of everything, so our model was extremely satisfied!
This concludes the explanation of women's coloring, cuts, and care treatments!
Here is the process of a texture perm for a male model!
After cleansing my scalp and hair with shampoo, the consultation began.
While carefully assessing your current hair condition, we base our recommendations on your face shape and overall vibe,
They recommended a natural textured perm that is easy to maintain but still gives your hair great style.
In particular, Ryunît Yeonnam is a salon that specializes in perm treatments,
Not only men's styles, but also short, medium, and long hair—specialized designers for each style are available, so you can enjoy a wide variety of designs with confidence!

Before starting the actual perm, we began with a haircut first.
Even during the haircut, they continuously checked the length and balance, and asked in detail about my preferred style.
Rather than sticking to a fixed style, it felt like they adjusted everything to suit the model’s preferences and usual hair care habits!
After thoroughly checking your condition and having a detailed consultation like this from the very beginning, the procedure continues,
I appreciated that the direction of the expected results was clearly communicated from the start.

Before the perm procedure, protective shields were attached to the forehead and ears to minimize contact between the solution and the skin, and a protective agent was carefully applied to the scalp to reduce irritation.
Thanks to this pre-treatment protection process, there was almost no discomfort during the procedure, and it seemed like even those with sensitive skin could receive it without any worries.
We started with a down perm to keep the volume of the side hair under control,
They adjusted the intensity and coverage to suit my hair condition and head shape, so I could definitely feel that it was neatly styled without being overdone.
[Image Slider]
Next, we proceeded with the clinic step as well.
The model had signs of damage from a previous treatment, so a protein spray was applied to help stabilize the condition!
They continuously checked to make sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure, so I was able to relax the entire time.
After applying the clinic treatment, we performed heat processing for about 5 minutes to allow enough time for the nutrients to be fully absorbed into the hair.
[Image Slider]
The perm procedure has officially begun.
This process used a pink solution to further minimize hair damage and create a base that ensures the curls come out evenly!
After applying the treatment, heat is applied at approximately 60°C for 5 minutes to allow enough time for the ingredients to work effectively on the hair!
After that, we moved on to the process of rolling and setting the hair to create curls.
They carefully placed the rollers to match the flow of my hair and the texture I wanted, so even without giving a complicated explanation, it felt like an experienced designer knew exactly what to do and finished it perfectly!
After finishing the roll setting, we applied heat at 60 degrees for about 12 minutes.
Even during the heat treatment, they continuously checked the condition of my curls, so I felt I was being carefully looked after and could trust the process with peace of mind.
[Image Slider]
After the heat treatment was finished, there was a short waiting period of about 5 minutes.
Next, we moved on to the neutralization stage, which they said is the key step that sets the curls!
The neutralization was done while seated, so it was comfortable to receive without having to move.
They carefully checked to make sure the curls were forming well while evenly applying the product with a spray tool.
You can see that the curls have come out clearly even before drying, right?
The hair was evenly and thoroughly dried, so I was even more excited because I thought my hair would look more natural and tidy after blow-drying!
Afterwards, we moved to the shampoo room for the neutralization step.
While lying down, a neutralizer was applied once more to securely set the curls.
During the rinsing stage, I used only treatment instead of shampoo,
The purpose is to enhance the longevity of the existing curls without causing unnecessary irritation, while also protecting your hair!
Whether it's a premium cut, perm, or coloring, they tailor the service based on your hair type and condition, so it felt like they paid attention to every detail.
[Image Slider]
In the final step, they used a dryer to neaten up the overall curls.
They also explained important things to keep in mind when taking care of it at home afterwards.
When drying, we were told that using a gentle airflow rather than a strong one helps the curls stay intact and look natural.
They didn’t just finish with the treatment—they also explained how to take care of my hair at home, which was really helpful!
During the final touch-up stage, they also helped with styling.
They explained in detail how to style and set curls using mousse and spray, and I was especially impressed that they even recommended which spray products would be best to use.
Since they show you the actual products and techniques used by professionals, it seems like it will be much easier to maintain your style even after the treatment.

You can really see the difference when you compare the before and after photos, right?
The curls blended in naturally, and I could immediately feel that my overall look became much more vibrant.
The texture isn’t too much, so it doesn’t feel overwhelming, and it’s not difficult to style, making it easy to maintain in everyday life.
From consultation to the procedure and finishing touches, the entire process flowed seamlessly, which naturally enhanced our overall satisfaction—not just with the results, but with the whole experience!
