Form Grooming

Form Grooming was founded by Korean stylist Min-Jun Lee, who trained in Seoul's Hongdae district before relocating to Manila. The appointment-only studio takes a maximum of four clients per day — a deliberate constraint that ensures every client receives the owner's personal attention.

The Korean precision cutting technique that Min-Jun applies creates results that are noticeably different from traditional barbershop cuts: more architectural, more considered, and more flattering to Asian facial structures. The consultation alone takes 20 minutes — Min-Jun assesses face shape, hair texture, and lifestyle before making any recommendations.

The studio's Korean Scalp Scaling treatment (₱4,500) is the most thorough scalp health treatment available for men in BGC, combining a diagnostic scalp analysis with a deep-cleansing treatment that removes product buildup and stimulates follicle health. The treatment has attracted a following among BGC's Korean expat community.
