Three Hair Treatments, Compared Honestly | emo. Hair Salon, District 7

2026.08.14Hair care

“Which treatment should I get?” We get this question almost every week, usually over Zalo, and usually from someone who’s just moved here and whose hair has suddenly stopped cooperating.

We offer three treatments. The prices are different, the time they take is different, and here’s the part that matters: they change different things.

The one difference that actually matters

Of the three, only one actually changes the shape of your hair. The other two change how it feels.

	Repair	Custom + Head Spa	METEO
What changes	Feel, shine	Feel, manageability, scalp	Shape (frizz, volume)
Will my natural curl change?	No	Barely	Yes
Price	₫700,000	₫1,650,000	₫1,800,000

Get this wrong and you pay for something that doesn’t solve the problem you came in with.

METEO 10-Step: rebuilding the inside of the hair

This is an acid-heat treatment. It’s mixed in with your colour, so it happens during the same appointment. It doesn’t coat the surface. It reforms bonds inside the hair, and that’s what changes the shape.

So it lasts longer than anything that washes out. That cuts both ways: because it does not wash out, you cannot undo it either, and the effects of repeating it too often build up.

Worth considering if

Humidity wrecks your hair by lunchtime
You colour regularly and the shine has stopped coming back
You want your hair actually changed, not just coated

Honestly not for you if

You’ve bleached your hair a lot: you won’t see much, and the damage isn’t worth it
Your hair is naturally coarse and thick: it can end up feeling even stiffer
You want it monthly: the same part of your hair can take it three to five times, and that’s about it. Each time, your hair gets a little stiffer

₫1,800,000. Uses METEO (levulinic acid, glyoxylic acid, glyoxyloyl carbocysteine).

Custom Hair Treatment + Davines Head Spa: chosen on the day

There’s no fixed formula here. We choose based on what your hair is doing that day.

One option is Hahonico Kirame Twinkle: three steps, with agents that add shine and strength, plus something for frizz. The other is AMASIA Deep Inpitari: D1 builds a moisture base, D2 repairs with keratin, D3 seals it in.

Either way, we add the Davines head spa, which works on your scalp rather than your hair.

Worth considering if

Your hair is too damaged for drugstore products to do much
You want your hair to feel softer and easier to handle before you leave
You want your scalp looked after too, not just your hair

Honestly not for you if

You’re short on time: this is the longest of the three
You want your curl gone: this doesn’t reshape hair. It will sit better, but the curl stays. See METEO
You want the cheapest option: go with Repair

₫1,650,000 (Custom Hair Treatment ₫1,100,000 + Davines Head Spa ₫550,000).

Repair: the light one, for getting the feel back

AMASIA Speed Inpitari, S1 then S2. Two steps, the shortest and the most affordable of the three. S1 delivers the repair and moisture agents; S2 locks them in.

It’s the one most people start with, and it’s the one you can come back for often without thinking too hard about it.

Worth considering if

You just want the feel back after colour or perm
It’s your first time and you’d rather start light
You want something gentle enough to repeat often

Honestly not for you if

You want frizz or volume fixed: the shape will not change. See METEO
Your hair is badly damaged: Custom is the better fit

₫700,000.

How long it lasts: the honest answer

People always ask how many months it lasts. We can’t give you a number.

It depends on your hair, how damaged it already is, your shampoo, how you dry it, how much you sweat. The humidity and sun here change it too. And none of the three manufacturers will give a number either.

So we don’t write “lasts three months” anywhere. Instead we look at your hair on the day and tell you when to come back.

Not happy? We’ll redo it free within a week

If it isn’t what you pictured, contact us within seven days of the appointment. We’ll put it right at no extra charge. You don’t need to explain why.

A few things to know. If you want a different design (new colour, different length), that means a new consultation and a new quote. This doesn’t apply if you’ve had your hair done at another salon in between. And if your stylist isn’t in, another stylist will look after you.

Not sure? Just ask

We can’t really tell which one is right for you until we see your hair. You’re welcome to ask without booking anything. We speak English, Japanese, Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean.
