What is a down perm?

A down perm(다운펌) is a Korean men's perm that relaxes hair at the sides and around the ears so it lies flat against the head instead of sticking out. It makes two-block and dandy cuts look neat without wax. At JUNO HAIR Gangnam a down perm costs ₩90,000 and takes about one hour.

Before & after

From puffy sides to a clean K-style silhouette

Many men have side hair that sticks out as soon as it grows. A down perm fixes that so your cut looks fresh for weeks:

  • Flat, tidy sides with no wax or ironing.
  • Sharper silhouette for two-block cuts.
  • Longer time between haircuts.
  • Quick — about an hour.
