Setting Perm
Unlike a regular perm, the Setting Perm uses heat technology to create sleek, long-lasting curls that are shinier and more polished. At ₩170,000, this service is popular among both Korean women and expats seeking a red-carpet look or the famous K-drama waves.
What Is a Setting Perm?
A Setting Perm is an advanced perm technique where heat and special solutions are used to create more durable curls compared to a regular perm. The process is ideal for:
