I had an Aveda hair treatment here and really loved it! 🤍 My stylist, Byeol, was very kind and fun to talk to, so I felt relaxed throughout the whole appointment. She is super cute anyway 🫶 The Aveda ritual included tea, aroma care, scalp & shoulder care, a hand mask, and oil therapy. The salon was also clean and cozy. They welcome many international customers, so I think it's a great choice for travelers visiting Myeongdong. I'd definitely come back! 😊

Absolutely loved my experience here! I came in for a head spa treatment and ended up getting my fringe trimmed too — and I'm so glad I did. The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. The head spa itself was incredibly relaxing — my scalp felt so clean and refreshed afterwards, and they even gave me a nice neck and shoulder massage. It was pure bliss! The staff were incredibly sweet and attentive. They really listened to what I wanted and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a top-notch head spa or haircut. I'll definitely be coming back!

So Jin did a great job with my hair. She listened to what I wanted and gave me recommendations on what to do. Because my hair is so dry, she recommended a moisturizing treatment in addition to my straightening perm, my hair came out so soft and shiny. She also showed me at the end how to style my hair, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Rarien and ask for So Jin

나혜 디자이너님께 히피펌 시술 받았는데 너무너무 만족해요! 펌도 예쁘게 잘 나오고 직원분들이 다 친절하셔서 너무 기분 좋았습니다. 다음에 또 방문할게요!!

아침 일찍 방문했는데도 밝고 활기찬 인사로 맞아주셔서 시술 시작 전부터 기분이 정말 좋았어요. 😊 자리에 앉자마자 아로마로 긴장을 풀어주시고, 클리닉과 함께 진행되는 시술도 하나하나 웃으면서 친절하게 설명해 주셔서 믿음이 갔습니다. 매장도 전체적으로 깔끔하고 쾌적한 데다, 서비스로 주시는 음료까지 더해져서 마치 카페에서 쉬면서 힐링하는 기분이었어요. 무엇보다 과한 시술을 권유하지 않으시고, 제 머리 상태를 꼼꼼하게 체크한 뒤 원하는 스타일은 최대한 살리면서도 손상은 최소화할 수 있는 방향으로 상담해 주셔서 정말 마음이 편했습니다.

This is our 2nd visit to Rarien and we're still very satisfied. My hair stylist is Na Hye. Pricing is very transparent with no hidden fees, the location is easy to find, and the results are consistently good. Lots of locals come here too which says a lot about the services. Will definitely be back!

Best salon experience in Myeongdong! Came here with my sister for a hair transformation (cut & color). The staff was professional, the salon environment was peaceful, and the final look exceeded our expectations! Her new hair color is vibrant and the cut fits her perfectly! We also loved the relaxing Aveda aroma service. Thank you, RARIEN, for the wonderful experience!
