  • During my journey in South Korea, I had the pleasure of visiting Lee Nam-yul, the owner of Seongu Barbershop, one of the oldest and most esteemed barbershops in the country. Located at 4-1 Hyochangwon-ro 97-gil, Gongdeok-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, Seongu Barbershop is a renowned establishment known for its exceptional service and commitment to the art of barbering.
    As I stepped into the barbershop, I was greeted by the warm and inviting atmosphere. The vintage decor, combined with the skillful barbers and the scent of shaving cream, created an ambiance reminiscent of a bygone era. It was evident that Seongu Barbershop had preserved the traditional barbering techniques and values that have made it a cherished institution.
    Lee Nam-yul, with his expertise and experience, provided me with a relaxing ASMR shave, wash, and style. The precision and care with which he handled the straight razor and lathered the shaving cream onto my face were truly remarkable. The soothing sound of the razor gliding across my skin, combined with the gentle strokes and pressure, created a sense of tranquility and relaxation.
    After the shave, Lee Nam-yul proceeded to give me a refreshing hair wash, massaging my scalp with expert hands. The warm water, combined with the invigorating shampoo, revitalized my senses and left me feeling rejuvenated. The rhythmic movements and the therapeutic touch of the barber's hands provided a truly calming experience.
    To complete the session, Lee Nam-yul skillfully styled my hair, taking into consideration my preferences and facial features. His attention to detail and artistic approach ensured that the final result was not only aesthetically pleasing but also tailored to suit my individual style.
    Leaving Seongu Barbershop, I couldn't help but appreciate the rich history and dedication to the craft that permeated every aspect of the experience. It was evident that Lee Nam-yul and his team were passionate about providing their clients with the highest level of service and creating a space where relaxation and grooming could harmoniously coexist.
    If you find yourself in Seoul and desire a truly memorable and relaxing ASMR shave, wash, and style, I highly recommend visiting Seongu Barbershop. You'll not only receive exceptional grooming but also immerse yourself in the timeless traditions of South Korean barbering.

    I love the obsession with details and the perfection that this master of hairdressing has. In several sections of the video, he discovers some irregularity in Nomad Barber's hair and interrupts what he was going to do to correct it with the scissors.
