Regular Perm

Adding curls or waves to your hair is one of the most popular beauty transformations in Korea. At Happynian Hair Salon in Seomyeon, Busan, our Regular Perm service offers natural-looking curls, soft volume, and long-lasting style for just ₩80,000. With English-speaking stylists and expat-friendly service, we make it easy for foreigners to achieve the Korean-style perm that is famous worldwide.


What Is a Regular Perm?

A regular perm is a chemical treatment that reshapes the structure of your hair to create curls or waves. Unlike temporary curling with an iron, a perm provides results that last for several months. At Happynian, our stylists use modern perm solutions and techniques that are gentler and healthier than traditional methods, minimizing damage while maximizing style.

Popular styles include:

  • Loose waves – A soft, casual look.
  • Bouncy curls – More volume and definition.
  • Soft body perm – Natural, everyday curls popular among Korean women.


Step-by-Step Procedure

  1. Consultation – Our stylist discusses your preferred curl style and checks your hair condition.
  2. Shampoo & Prep – Hair is washed and sectioned for even application.
  3. Perm Rod Wrapping – Hair is wrapped around rods to set curl shape.
  4. Perm Solution Application – The chemical solution is applied to restructure the hair bonds.
  5. Neutralizing – Locks in the curl pattern.
  6. Dry & Style – Hair is blow dried to reveal your new curls.
