Steps
- Get touch-ups only as needed. Have only the most unruly sections of our hair redone at touch-ups, because you shouldn’t get a complete perm each time unless your hair really needs it. Perms contain harmful chemicals and should be used sparingly.
- Don’t wash your hair for at least 24 hours after getting your perm. This will ensure that it doesn’t fall apart before the curl has a chance to develop. This will allow the perm to last for a couple months.
- Use appropriate hair products. Shampoos should maintain curls and conditioner should deeply moisturize. After getting your hair permed, it will be stripped of lots of natural oils and moisture which needs to be replaced. Every morning you should comb it through gently so as not to undo curls, and then choose your styling product to reduce frizzy unmanageable curls and keep your style strong.
- Scrunch hair daily. This is a beauty basic that will enhance your new style and create soft sultry waves.
Tips
- Detangle your hair carefully with a widetoothed comb. Your hair will be more tangled than usual with curls, but if you constantly brush it, the style will come undone.
- Experiment with hairdos. Just because you changed the texture dosn’t mean your glittery hairclips, patent headbands, and ponytail days are over! Accent your style with cute accessories and styles.
Warnings
- Don’t get your hair permed too often. Excessive contact with chemicals will permanently ruin and damage your hair.
