Where to find korean hairstylist to do balayage?

check out hodu hair near korea town in charlottenburg. they do balayage and the stylists speak korean. i've seen their work on instagram and it looks solid. also try the salon inside the korean supermarket at kudamm 195, they're used to english speakers. just call ahead to book because they get busy

I've seen a few Korean stylists working out of smaller studios in the Moabit area, near the Korean restaurants on Turmstrasse. There's a place called Lee's Hair Lounge on Beusselstrasse that does balayage for around 70 euros, and the owner speaks Korean and English. She does a lot of color work for local Korean students, so she gets the technique right. Just text her on WhatsApp rather than calling, since she's usually in the middle of a cut.

honestly there's a korean stylist named mina at elegance hair in mitte near rosenthaler platz. she does balayage and her prices are like 80-100 euros which is pretty standard for berlin. i've been there a couple times and she's chill about speaking korean or english. just dm her on instagram to book cause the walk-in wait can be brutal

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
