K-Pop Hair And Makeup Artists Reveal What Male Idols Really Do While They're At The Salon

During their jam-packed schedules, K-Pop idols always look amazing and showcase their dazzling visuals to fans. All of this is done by a team of stylists who work hard to help the idols shine.

YouTube channel AYO recently invited Cheongdam Lovey salon’s representative and assistant directors Daho and Kim Minseon to their channel to talk about all things beauty.

As idols spend a lot of time getting ready, one question asked by a viewer was what the male idols do while they are getting their hair and makeup done.

Daho explained that it is different depending on whether the idol is promoting or on a rest period. If the artists are in the midst of a busy promotion schedule, they fall asleep and, if they’re not, they are usually on their phones.

Kim Minseon also added that stylists will also talk to the idols about their skin condition and recommend products for them to use.

Although this is the case with many idols, Daho pointed out that it is slightly different for Super Junior because they have been idols for so long.

Since they’ve been around a while, they’re rather professional. It’s like a rule for them that they don’t sleep when they get their hair and makeup done. So, I don’t think I’ve ever seen them (members) sleep.
