Where to Get Makeup Done in Seoul: Compare 3 Salons

Where to Get Makeup Done in Seoul: Compare 3 Salons

If you are deciding where to get makeup done in Seoul, compare GOSHEN BEAUTY, SHEJAC and La Maison Beauty Cheongdam on Pglemaps. All three list makeup services, but their packages differ. Start with whether you want makeup alone or hair styling too, then compare the look, price and appointment time.

Perhaps you want a polished look for travel photos, a birthday dinner or a day when getting ready is part of the experience. The difficult part is not finding a beautiful reference photo. It is choosing a service that delivers the kind of appointment you actually want.

This guide compares selected menus from three Pglemaps partner salons. It is not a ranking of every makeup salon in Seoul, and the cheapest package is not automatically the best fit.

Choose the look first. Then check what the package includes before choosing your appointment.

Compare three hair and makeup packages

These options all include makeup and hair styling. Their styles and service details are not identical, so use this as a starting point, not a like-for-like quality ranking.

Prices shown are the listed menu amounts before any coupon. Review the selected service, designer, extras and payment terms on the booking page before paying. Appointment durations are estimates, not guaranteed finishing times.

The general salon card's lowest price can belong to a different service. For example, SHEJAC's KRW 33,000 shampoo and GOSHEN's KRW 99,000 personal color class are not makeup packages. Open the makeup menu to compare the right prices.

Prefer makeup without a hair package?

GOSHEN lists Personalized makeup at KRW 165,000 for 60 minutes and explicitly excludes hair styling. SHEJAC lists Special makeup at KRW 165,000 for 60 minutes, separately from its hair-and-makeup package; confirm the exact inclusions when choosing it.

That distinction matters if you already like your hair, have another styling appointment, or want to spend less of the day in a salon. Do not add a haircut or perm simply because it appears on the same booking page.

GOSHEN BEAUTY: choose between makeup alone and a combined appointment

GOSHEN BEAUTY is at 6-9 Eonju-ro 168-gil in Gangnam, in the Dosan Park area. Its menu makes a useful distinction between a makeup-only appointment and a hair-and-makeup package.

• Personalized makeup: KRW 165,000, 60 minutes; hair styling is explicitly excluded.
• Hair & makeup package: KRW 210,000, 120 minutes.

The combined option costs KRW 45,000 more and has a listed duration one hour longer. Those are differences between the two displayed packages, not a separately bookable hair-styling price.

GOSHEN is worth comparing when your first decision is whether you want the artist to handle your complete look or just your makeup. Bring a reference for the finish you want and ask what hair styling the combined package covers.

The salon's wider listing also discusses classes and photography. Do not assume either is included in the two makeup services above: a makeover, a lesson and a photo session are different purchases.

Check GOSHEN BEAUTY's makeup options and start a booking request.

SHEJAC: compare a longer hair-and-makeup package with makeup alone

SHEJAC is at 49 Apgujeong-ro 2-gil, 4F, in Sinsa. Its description uses the name SHEJAC; the Pglemaps listing currently displays “Easy hair makeup.” Check the address when opening the page so you know you have the intended salon.

• Special makeup: KRW 165,000, 60 minutes.
• Special hair & makeup: KRW 187,000, 150 minutes.
• Personal analysis + makeup: KRW 200,000, 120 minutes.

The Special hair & makeup package is the lowest-priced combined option among the three selected packages in the comparison table. Its listed duration is also the longest. Neither fact proves that the result will be better or worse: look at the style you want and the time you can give the appointment.

The word “special” does not explain every inclusion. Ask which hairstyle is covered and whether lashes, accessories or a more elaborate finish cost extra. If you are considering the analysis combination, confirm what “personal analysis” includes instead of assuming it matches a separate personal color consultation.

Choose this as a comparison option when you want both hair and makeup and can leave a longer appointment window in your day.

Review SHEJAC's makeup packages and request your preferred visit.

La Maison Beauty Cheongdam: compare daily, special and K-pop looks

La Maison Beauty Cheongdam is at 49 Dosan-daero 55-gil, B1, in Gangnam. Its three named makeup packages each include K-pop blow-dry styling and list 120 minutes.

The daily option is described as natural and radiant. The K-pop special option is described as a more glamorous, idol-inspired look. Treat those descriptions as a starting point for a consultation, not a promise to recreate a celebrity's face or an edited photo.

This menu is useful when your main question is “How much styling do I actually want?” A more dramatic look is not automatically a better choice for daytime photos or a quiet dinner. Show the artist both the details you like and anything you want to avoid.

All three packages name a blow-dry. Do not assume an updo, hair extensions, accessories or every reference hairstyle is included. Confirm those details before choosing the higher-priced package.

Compare La Maison Beauty's three makeup packages and start a booking request.

Five details to settle before choosing a salon

1. The finished look, not just the menu name

Bring one or two clear reference photos. Explain whether you want a light everyday finish, a defined look for photos or a more dramatic K-pop-inspired style. Point out details such as the base finish, blush, lashes and lip shape rather than asking only for “Korean makeup.”

2. What happens to your hair

Check whether the service includes makeup alone, a blow-dry or another styling option. Ask separately about updos and accessories. A package that includes hair styling does not necessarily include a haircut, color or perm.

3. Consultation language

All three listings show English among their supported languages. The exact support available can depend on the person handling your appointment. Confirm the consultation arrangements for your chosen time; a language label does not establish that every staff member is fluent.

4. Experience relevant to your features and preferences

Ask to see examples close to the result you want, including relevant skin tones, eye shapes or hair textures. Share known cosmetic sensitivities and products you prefer to avoid before the appointment. Do not assume a salon can accommodate every request from its general description alone.

5. The complete price and scope

Ask whether lashes, styling extras, an early start or a particular artist change the quoted amount. Check the cancellation conditions before making a payment. A service labeled “makeup” is not automatically a makeup lesson, and a camera-ready look does not include a photographer unless the selected product says so.

Prepare for the appointment without overpacking your day

Once you have chosen a service, send the salon a short, specific brief:

I would like [package] on [date]. My reference look is [description], and I need to be at [next appointment] by [time]. Please confirm the hair styling, consultation language, inclusions and total price. Should I arrive with a bare face, and how should I prepare my hair?

Follow the salon's preparation instructions rather than guessing whether to wash or style your hair first. Bring reference photos and, if useful, a photo of the outfit you plan to wear. Keep the booking confirmation and exact address accessible on your phone.

Allow for the full listed service time plus travel and a buffer. As a planning example, a 120-minute appointment starting at 10:00 would nominally finish at 12:00. Leaving at least another 30 minutes before departure creates some breathing room; travel to your next stop is additional. This is a planning allowance, not a salon guarantee.

For photos, dinner or a performance, plan backward from the fixed start time and ask the salon whether your appointment fits. Avoid making a long shopping trip or a cross-city transfer the immediate next commitment.

How Pglemaps helps you make the choice

You can review the actual partner menus, listed prices, durations, locations and language information before choosing a salon. That lets you compare a makeup-only appointment with a complete hair-and-makeup package instead of starting with an unclear lowest-price label.

Use the direct salon links above, open the relevant makeup menu and review your chosen service. Select the designer or available preference option, then follow the date and time choices offered on the page. Check the payment and cancellation terms attached to your selection.

Sending a booking request, or making a payment where required, is not the same as a confirmed appointment. Wait for the salon's approval and Pglemaps' confirmation before treating the time as fixed.

For other services or a different salon, browse Pglemaps' hair salon listings. Not every listed hair salon has a bookable makeup menu, so check the actual services rather than the business name alone.

Questions before you book makeup in Seoul

Can I book makeup without booking hair styling?

Yes. GOSHEN explicitly lists a makeup-only service without hair styling. SHEJAC also lists Special makeup separately from Special hair & makeup. Open the exact menu and confirm inclusions instead of relying on the salon's starting price.

Should I choose a K-pop package for travel photos?

Only if that is the look you want. La Maison's menu distinguishes daily, special and K-pop special makeup. Share your preferred finish and the purpose of your photos; the most expensive option is not automatically the right one.

Can a friend join me at the same time?

Ask about simultaneous appointments, separate artists and the price for each person. The individual menu entries do not establish that two people can be styled together or that a group discount is available.

Can I arrive without a reservation?

Do not build a fixed photo or dinner plan around an unconfirmed walk-in. Check your preferred date, service and consultation needs through the salon's booking page, and wait for confirmation. Availability varies by salon, artist and day.

The useful choice is the salon and package that match your reference look, budget and available time. Once those three align, open that salon's page and take the next step with a clear idea of what you are requesting.
