Is Getting a Body Wave Perm Really a Bad Idea? Please Answer If You've Ever Gotten a Perm?
IMO, physique perms are a waste of money. Mine continually have been long previous in 6 weeks time. I had greater appropriate success with conventional perms and enormously spiral perms. have you ever tried putting your hair on large warm rollers? additionally, it facilitates to have your hair carry a curl in case you dont shampoo it the comparable day you curl it.
1. what is a good perm to use?
First, there is a difference in a perm and a relaxer. A perm is a chemical agent used on caucasion hair in which to either roll it on rods or just chemically balance it. A relaxer is used on black hair in which it is used to straighten hair. You should not use any chemicals on your hair right now because you have already used some. Let it fade out. If you are caucasion, your perm will wash away eventually, and you would have to apply another perm
2. I just got a perm?
Try a light mousse. When you are in the store consider what you want it to feel like or look like and choose light, medium or strong hold. Use it in gradual amounts to make sure how much to use. Do not use so much that it looks wet and feels crunchy, but also it could get frizzy and whispy.
3. What is the best perm for me?
You can easily achieve that same hairstyle 1st photo, by curling them with plastic curlers. Blowdry, let them cool and take the curlers out, after you wash your hair. You do not need a perm for THAT. You can also get a body perm. But you still have to use plastic curlers to get the size of curls you want, in the end. Same with the 2nd photo. One method to make it look fuller, add body, tame the curls, bouncier, thicker, SEXIER, softer & shinier hair is to set your hair with plastic curlers (not Velcro) after you towel dry, you will end up with uniform balance of curls. Blow dry briefly while curling them in curlers. Take them out, and finger comb to style. Used by the best hair color models, and the fashion industry, like Victoria Secret Fashion Show Dec. 2009, 2010, & 2011, America's Next Top Models, EXPRESS, Toddlers & Tiaras, Dance Moms, Dancing with the Stars, even used on Oprah's hair . . . . and continued to be used today where salons care about pampering your hair. When you see hair on TV a hair color commercial, they are not done by curling or straightening tools. Hair that shines like that and feels like hair, not hay, has to be done by the best hair tools available w/out damaging to the hair. When you take the curlers out, finger comb to style or lightly brush. Tousle the hair up. or shake your hair. You can use large, medium or small curlers, that depends on the length of your hair. Think of JLo's hair, she was voted as the Sexiest Woman by People magazine and Glamour's Woman of the Year 2011. Google: Imogen Thomas wears rollers in her hair to take out the trash.
4. How do you defuse a perm?
itll loosen up in a little while OR YOU COULD CUT IT ALL OFF!!!!!
5. straight perm or straightening hair ?
Been there, done that; so, trust me when I tell you that you wo not get the results you think you will if you get a "straight perm." I have always had naturally curly hair. When I was younger, I hated it and wanted it straight. I tried the ironing routine (between 2 pieces of waxed paper, if you should try it) long before there were "straightening irons." It worked fine a few days at a time, and I always had to use a conditioner on my hair during the time I was doing that. By the way, the more often you wash your hair, the more quickly it becomes damaged; your scalp generates natural oils and your hair needs a certain amount of it to flourish. Having to wash hair every day is a shampoo-maker's marketing propaganda; washing once or twice a week is sufficient unless your work and activities cause you to perspire profusely or expose you to an enormous amount of dirt in the air. Then I had my hair chemically straightened - what you would call a straight perm. The results were NOT what I imagined. Instead of having curly, fuzzy, fly-away hair I then had straight, fuzzy, fly-away hair. And humid weather and rain caused it to fuzz just the same as it had when it had been curly. God did not make any mistakes. Love your curly hair and find the style that is most becoming to you. Do not wash it so often, use a "stay-in" conditioner or hair treatment such as that made by Infusium (which is what repaired my hair), and - if you must use the straightening iron - reduce the heat on the iron to reduce damage to your hair. When I was doing all this stuff to my hair, it would never grow beyond the top of my shoulders; today, it stays at waist-length.
