I love curls and I already have curly hair, but it is not a uniform curl throughout my hair. Can curly hair be permed?
Yes, absolutely. If your hair has an irregular curl pattern or is not a uniform curl, a perm is the answer for you.
Can you perm my hair straight?
A reverse perm is just that, it is the same solution applied to perm the hair. In reversing a perm the solution is applied and brushed through to smooth the curls out. With new technology and advancement there is now more effective options such as the keratin smoothing treatment if you are desiring to achieve straighter or smooth hair.
Should I cut my hair before or after the perm?
You want to wait until after the perm is done before getting a hair cut. The curl will pull that hair up giving it a shorter appearance. You always want to see how much your curl will pull your hair up before cutting anything off.
Will I need a haircut after my perm?
A haircut after a perm is always recommended. Your current hair cut may not be particularly suitable for curls. A good hair shaping allows the hair to be reshaped to match the type of perm you have chosen. Many clients prefer to have this done a week or so after the perm/wave. This allows the hair to "settle in" and keeps the tension off of the newly perm/waved hair while the bonds continue to reform. The least amount of tension applied to the hair after the perm prevent premature loosening of the perm/wave.
Can colored hair safely be permed?
Yes, but this is not the case for everyone. There are several different factors to take into consideration. This answer can only be given upon a consultation. The stylist must first see the condition of the hair in person.
Can perms or waves be performed on children?
A child's hair has not completely keratinized until well after puberty. Keratinized hair is necessary to achieve longevity. The results of a perm are not guaranteed by the salon unless the child is at least 14 years of age. If a child's hair has not yet keratinized, the results of the perm can last anywhere from 1 day to 1 month. Again, because of this, the salon will not guarantee results of a perm on a child less than 14 years of age.
