  • Returning to Mr Lee's Seongu Barbershop in Seoul, South Korea was a delight as I was in for another delicately relaxing haircut experience. Known as one of the oldest barbershops in the country, Seongu Barbershop has a rich history and a reputation for its exceptional service.
    Located at 4-1 Hyochangwon-ro 97-gil, Gongdeok-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea, Seongu Barbershop offers a tranquil environment where traditional barbering techniques are practiced with utmost precision and care.
    As I settled into the barber chair, I could feel the nostalgic atmosphere of the barbershop. The vintage decor and the skilled barbers created an ambiance that harkened back to a bygone era. It was a wonderful blend of tradition and relaxation.
    The barber began the haircut with meticulous attention to detail, carefully shaping my hair according to my preferences. Every snip of the scissors and stroke of the comb was executed with precision and expertise. The soothing sound of the shears, combined with the gentle touch of the barber's hands, created a serene environment that put me at ease.
    During the haircut, the barber engaged in polite conversation, making the experience not only relaxing but also enjoyable. The combination of skillful craftsmanship and friendly conversation made the visit to Seongu Barbershop a truly pleasant one.
    As the haircut neared its completion, the barber skillfully styled my hair, giving it a polished and refined look. The attention to detail in the finishing touches showcased the mastery of the barber and their commitment to providing the best possible haircut experience.
    Leaving Seongu Barbershop, I couldn't help but appreciate the dedication to the craft and the preservation of traditional barbering practices. The delicately relaxing haircut and the warm hospitality of the staff left me feeling rejuvenated and satisfied.
    If you're in Seoul and seeking a haircut experience that combines tradition, relaxation, and exceptional skill, I highly recommend visiting Mr Lee's Seongu Barbershop. You'll not only receive a superb haircut but also immerse yourself in the rich history of South Korean barbering.

      The old barbershop's roof came down, but since that place is a national historic heritage, as it was the first barbershop to be allowed to operate during the Japanese occupation, the government rebuilt and improved the place.

    What a contrast to see Mr Lee's , somewhat, "space-age"-looking "workshop" to that of his original shop which, to be fair, looked like it would collapse if you slammed the door accidently. Always a pleasure to see him at work and thank you Nomad Barber for uploading this.👍
