We Visited Jenny House Salon in Seoul—Here's What We Loved!

We got treated like K-drama leading ladies at one of Seoul's hottest salon spots!

<p>We&#x27;re all K-drama fanatics one way or another. Here at METRO though, we&#x27;re self-confessed geeks, having formed the <strong>Metro K-Drama Club</strong>, having live discussions about dramas we love, and more. Just check out our deep archive of K-content and you&#x27;ll know what we mean! So just a couple of months ago, it was truly a dream come true for us Metro Editors to head over to the motherland—<strong>Seoul, South Korea</strong>, to live our K-drama dreams!</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/2cd9ae84-00e2-4fc1-8509-a91494a1f2ff_20231122_102202.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">From L to R: Kate, Beauty &amp; Wellness Editor, Geolette, Editor-in-Chief, and Grace, People Editor at Ikseon-dong Alley, Seoul</span></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/travel/highlights/tips-and-hacks-for-the-ultimate-korea-trip/37165" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tips and Hacks for the Ultimate Korea Trip</a></div><p>One one of our days in Seoul, we were lucky enough to score a slot at the famed <strong>Jenny House Salon</strong> in <strong>Gangnam</strong>, a beauty haven known to be the go-to for Korean celebrities like <strong>Song Ji-hyo, Han So-hee, Kim Tae-ri,</strong> and<strong> Son Ye-jin</strong>! While in Seoul, it&#x27;s only right to get a firsthand experience of K-beauty, don&#x27;t you think?</p><div><br/></div><p>The salon can be found at the upscale neighborhood of Cheongdam Hill in Gangnam, where a lot of high-end stores and boutiques can be found. The salon has five floors for makeup, hair, and nails. They also have private rooms and dressing rooms for VIPs. It already sounds like a scene out of a K-drama, right?</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/15d3030c-0e48-4cd7-aea0-c878f5d02e4e_koreantopcelebrityhairstylingexperienceatjennyhouseinseoul.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Jenny House Salon<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Photo via Klook  </em></span></span></span></span></div><p>The salon primarily is known for wedding-related services, as we saw when we visited. The salon was busy and buzzing as they had a wedding client in the house. Once you arrive, you get a consultation about what you want to have done—either a haircut, hair spa or treatment, or the full hair and makeup service. Most of us went for the hairstyling and makeup service as we wanted to be transformed into K-drama leading ladies—even for just one day!</p><div><br/></div><p>We were led to lockers where we were able to leave our thick jackets (it was about 2 degrees outside) and we were also able to leave our other belongings. We were then given robes to wear for the duration of the visit. </p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/100db86c-e9ab-435b-9182-8326d12a384e_dscf2633.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Hairstyling area<span id="isPasted" style="color:rgb(65, 65, 65);letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;display:inline !important;float:none"><em> Photo by Nona Baldo  </em></span></span></span></span></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/82f1efe1-fb3f-4165-b6d5-2f63c8f9a467_dscf2681.jpg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/><span class="fr-inner" style="text-align:left">Jenny House products</span></span></span></div><p>Each beauty station is decked with Jenny House products, ones you can actually purchase and take home with you so you can re-create the looks they create.

Several different kinds of brushes were used for the makeup and they really try to cover all dark spots on your face. As we see in K-dramas, flawless, spotless skin is always key. For the lashes, they used a heated stick to curl them.
