I went to get my haircut in Korea for the first time today. I've been afraid to do it but after seeing Adi's new do I thought I would go for it!! Isabelle and Adi accompanied me. They were both my models and Isabelle translated. I know it sounds pathetic to make such a big deal out of getting a hair cut. But, when you can't read, write or speak the same language it makes the smallest things seem so complicated. I asked for the top to be cut like Adi and the bottom layers like Isabelle. I am very happy with the results. Actually, she did a better job than the place I usually go to in the States. She cut, washed, massaged and styled all for 6,000 won ($6.00)!!!

I too am very nervous about the soon approaching haircut. You were lucky to have someone translate for you. Show us a photo! I wanna see!
I am very nervous about a haircut here. I'm fast approaching a desperate need for one. You are lucky you had someone to translate for you. Share a photo, I wanna see!
I too nervous about this to even schedule an appointment. I dread the day I have to do this. You were lucky to have someone translate for you.
I knew someone would ask for a picture. I like being behind the camera!! Don't give yourself a hard time. It took me 8 months to work up the courage and if i looked better in a ponytail I would've put it off even longer.
Have you made any Korean friends or is there a secretary at your husband's work that can help you?
If you have a picture and can find a good place to go I think you will be fine.

Congrats on the successful haircut!
I talked to my husband about this. I usually get blond highlights and I thought that no one in Korea will know how to do that will they?
Thanks!! I will have to check on that for you. My daughter wants blonde highlights and I told her we would check on it. We'll be in Thailand on Spring Break next week. So, I will check when I return.
