Hearing things like “Didn’t you want to bleach your hair?” or “Well, that’s what happens when you bleach too much” really hurts. For years, I’ve turned down the salon’s repeated suggestions to tint my eyebrows out of concern for my eye health. I even stayed away from bleaching for over three years because of its potential cancer risks. But this time, the salon director said, “You’ve had brown hair for years, it’s getting boring. Let’s switch it up.” That suggestion is what led me to agree to the treatment. She also recommended bleaching my eyebrows again, but I clearly refused. Yes, the final decision was mine. But not every decision is made 100% voluntarily. And with a highly damaging process like bleaching, it is the professional’s responsibility to accurately assess the condition of the hair and clearly explain the potential risks. But I wasn’t given any such explanation. I hope this clears up any misunderstandings.

Please beware when you bleach your hair! You probably shocked by the photos. I wanted to show you a pretty side of me again, so after my tour, I came back to Korea and tried to surprise you all by going blonde Soda again after 3 years. I went to a hair salon where I usually go to bleach my hair, but they left the bleach on for way too long. It went horribly wrong. but something went really wrong. The bleach melted my hair from the roots, and in the end, I had to shave the whole back and sides of my head. Many people who saw me at events and shows were very shocked. I was also very surprised and sad. My hair kept falling out in big handfuls every day. I was so upset that I couldn’t sleep for 2 weeks and cried almost every day. It’s really hard for me to look in the mirror. When I see videos fans took of me, I feel even more heartbroken. And it’s not over yet… My hair is still falling out more. Most of it is only about 3mm long now, so I can’t even get hair extensions. It will take over 2 years for my hair to grow back. Now I try to cover the bald parts with the little hair I have left. It makes me feel very lost and very sad every day. After thinking a lot, I wanted to gently tell you about my condition just in case you see me and feel shocked. Don’t end up like me, bleaching really depends on the hairstylist’s skill, so make sure to do your research and get it done by a bleaching specialist!

Hello everyone, 🕊️💓 I’m currently in Germany, taking a short break to recover from a period of deep sadness. As a woman, I struggled with low self-esteem and even developed social anxiety. But thanks to so many of you who worried for me as if it were your own story and sent love from all around the world, I’m trying to find strength again.😭🙏🏻 I’ve also received so many unexpected offers hair products, care packages, wigs and hair extension treatments and I’m truly grateful for each one. Please don’t worry, I’ll respond to all of you once I’m back in Korea. Though I haven’t been able to thank every single person individually, I want you to know that I hold deep gratitude in my heart for all of you. I’ll keep doing my best to grow into someone who can give back the love and support I’ve received.🙏🏻 Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. 💖 #djsoda #dj소다

Congratulations on your wedding ! 💒✨ I was truly happy to perform the song we worked on together after such a long time~💖 @G-DEVITH #djsoda #dj소다 #gdevith

As an artist who needs to continue performing and attending events, I shared a post to inform my fans about the severe damage my hair recently suffered. However, today, the salon responded with complaints and even a veiled threat—saying they could “change the mood.” Three weeks ago, a procedure at the salon caused my hair to break off from the roots. Since then, the stylist has not once reached out or offered an apology. Despite our repeated efforts to resolve the issue—including requesting a list of hospitals for a professional diagnosis—the salon remained silent for over three weeks. And now, out of nowhere, they offer ₩5,000,000 won for a settlement and demand the post be taken down. During the session, bleach was applied directly to my scalp three times for over an hour, which led to the damage. Yet the stylist denied this ever happened and took no responsibility. All I ever wanted was an honest apology and accountability—not silence, gaslighting, or hush money. No amount of money can undo what I’ve experienced. This post is not just to share my experience, but to speak out—so others don’t go through the same pain.
