Soft spoken Carolyn, 12, is on the cusp of the awkward teenage years. About to enter secondary school, Carolyn decides to get a trendy Korean hairstyle to kickstart the fact that she is now of age (within the Singapore school system) to perm her hair.
Carolyn's grandmother assures her that the best place to get the perm done is at grandma's long time hair salon down the block. But is the salon Carolyn grew up in the right place to undertake this important rite of passage?
