Exciting things are happening at Gemmill lane! With a change of tenants, besides new F&B outlets, The Comb, a Korean hair salon has taken over the previous Japanese salon. I was invited to try out the hair services in my birthday month.
Besides the product display and the service area, there is a waiting area. Best of all, with a rack of different magazines, you can be sure your friend/ mister/ boyfriend are entertained while you are having your hair serviced.
It is very common to see hair salon serving beverages to their customers. But how often do you see a drinks menu in a salon? Besides offering Nespresso coffee, there is orange juice and even a selection of TWG tea availble!
I always feel that service is a huge part of any hair salon and I am so glad to tell you that the peeps at The Comb has walked the extra mile. If the beverage menu didn’t impress you, how about apron with sleeves? At least, I can check my social media without my hands having any difficulties finding their way out of the apron! =)
After the consultation with my hairstylist of the day, Henry, we proceeded to dye my hair. I wanted something without any red tone and does not make my crown of glory looking dry and unhealthy. To be frank, I knew that I have given Henry a big headache. lol
During my little chat with Henry, I got to find out that he was from China but has been working in Korea for the past 8 years. So for anybody who likes to practice your korean language while doing your hair, you know where to go and who to go to ah. To be frank, I am very impressed with Henry’s hair colouring skill. He was really skillful and I could hardly feel any hair dye touching my scalp. On top of that, he has good knowledge about hair and hair services. *thumbs up*
Something unique about the wash stations here is that the seats are in sitting position instead of laying down position. Personally I like this better as I am more comfortable with sitting upright (well sometimes the washing of hair can take quite a while…).
After the hair wash, Henry proceeded to help trim away my dry ends while maintaining my hair length as I have requested. The whole hair colouring and hair trimming took about 2 hours. However with Henry’s friendly and chatty persona, times flies.

| Before |
Before my hair colouring and hair triming, the roots of my hair are already growing out and the ends were dry and “qiao-ing” which made it looked a bit unkempt.
Thanks to Henry, I got my desired colour and with the dry ends trimmed away, my hair look more healthy too.

Usually I gauge a good hair colouring service by how the colour transform after several hair washes. Besides receiving comments on how this colour compliments me and make me look younger. I like the fact that the colour remains vibrant.
