I have short hair again! it's getting so hot and i was itching for a change. since my last perm a year ago, I got a couple haircuts and was left with semi straight hair again.
about a month ago, I went to lucy hair for the second time to cut the last remaining bits of perm and decided to get a magic straight (because i've gotten so used to air drying). the straight perm kind of just looked like my hair did before I started going curly. I guess it does dry a little smoother though. 200,000won poorer and I was left with a hair style that I felt very meh about.
I knew I couldn't get another digital perm any time soon since I had my hair chemically straightened so I started thinking about going short. I haven't had short hair in 4 years or straight hair in 3 so it was about time!
I didn't want to go back to lucy because of my indifference to my previous visits and the high price by korea standards (35,000won..3x what I used to pay in my old neighborhood). there's a small hair shop right around the corner from my new house (in yeonhuidong) that I had been eyeing for a while and finally just decided to go there. I took some screenshots of me with short hair and of gwyneth paltrow's lob and walked out with a great cut. she cut my hair almost entirely with a razor which I really like. I didn't ask how much it would be, but it was right around my old price of 13,000won including a nice blowout. now that is value for money.
