No, I didn't use the Moroccan oil, but it looks interesting (and pricey, it better work miracles, haha!)</p> <p>I used a conditioner with keratin and then put in some curl defining cream before I blow dried it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-232551 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 13:46:06 +0000 mrs. bird 232551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>so cute! i love it! did you do a moroccan oil treatment? that stuff is amazing! the pic you posted, is that just air dried? i need to find a way to convince my stylist my hair can handle it ;)</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Moroccan-Hair-Treatment-Bottle-Blue/dp/B001AO0WCG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1343155436&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=moroccan+oil" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Moroccan-Hair-Treatment-Bottle-Blue/dp/B001AO0WCG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1343155436&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=moroccan+oil</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-232541 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 13:38:28 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 232541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: cute!!! thanks for sharing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-232518 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 13:26:46 +0000 MrsBrewer 232518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow!!

Just thought I'd come back and post a photo of my new perm! </p> <p>Yesterday I was ready to post, "I HATE MY PERM!! It is so frizzy...looks damaged and the curls are weird and kinky." And then boohoo about it with all you lovely ladies...</p> <p>BUT, I conditioned the hell out of it yesterday and bought some curl activating cream, and it's actually looking ok today! Usually I only condition the ends of my hair and leave it in for 20 - 30 seconds since my hair is thin and fine. But last night I slathered it from root to tip and left it in for 2 minutes. And it makes a big difference, thank goodness!</p> <p>Now let's see if this photo upload thing works. Sorry for the poor cellphone in a mirror pic... </p> [attach=329/12/m7ogij.600x449.Digital-Perm.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229968 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 22:12:19 +0000 Rubies 229968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: Can't wait to seeeeee!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229707 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 12:22:15 +0000 Meridian 229707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sitting in the chair right now!! It's a long process, I've been here for about 2 hours so far and the lady just put in the curlers and attached each curler to the heating machine. I feel my head getting hot...</p> <p>Now that we can upload pics, I'll definitey post one later! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229699 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 12:09:09 +0000 Foodnerd81 229699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have never heard of this before and was so confused until I googled it-- but now I want one! However, most of the things I saw about it were on Asian hair-- anyone know if it works on very fine, slippery caucasian hair? I couldn't do it in the summer though-- I end up with my hair in a ponytail every day anyway because I hate having hair on my neck when its hot. But in the fall... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229650 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 10:32:12 +0000 SAHM0811 229650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it done about 3 years ago in between having my LOs. I loved it because straight hair was getting boring! My hair is naturally a little wavy and a little straight... Annoyingly in between... So I switch off between Japanese straightening and digital perms every few years.</p> <p>I think digital perms, like any hair treatment, take better to certain kinds of hair than others. It took to my hair pretty well, but I did have to take some time and shape the waves after shampooing, but I did love it and would do it again!</p> <p>Post pics after you get it done :) good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229415 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 23:01:57 +0000 MrsBrewer 229415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: yea! I'm sure the stylist will know than....dr. Google :-). Keep us updated! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229381 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 22:09:45 +0000 Meridian 229381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: oye, i didn't realize it doesn't work well on fine straight hair, which is what I have :( but i guess I'll have the stylist evaluate my hair and determine if digital or regular perm would work better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229353 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 21:18:16 +0000 MrsBrewer 229353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to see pictures too!! Do u have thick hair? I read online that it may not work well on fine hair (which is what I have :-( ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229311 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 20:06:58 +0000 Mrs. Cowgirl 229311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup, i've gotten several! but, i've found that the setting perm (that's what my korean stylist calls it) with the cone shaped curlers works just as well and is lots cheaper. i usually get my hair permed between 2-3 times a year. i know it's not the best for your hair, but it makes it so much more manageable, and i don't have to blow dry because it's just wash and go and the curls dry really well on their own!</p> <p>will you share an after shot, pretty please? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229305 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 20:00:53 +0000 mynoahbear 229305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get them. It takes so long at the salon but it's worth it. I don't have to do anything with my hair everyday, just wash and go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229282 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 19:35:10 +0000 Mrs. Bee 229282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i've had one and would get one again. actually the one i got last time was too loose! if i get it again i would get it tighter because it loosens up so much after a little while. it looks like i just had a slight wave instead of curls, which is what my hair kinda looks like anyway! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229280 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 19:29:41 +0000 mrs. bird 229280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i want one sooooo bad! my stylist is telling me not to do it, my hair is greying pretty bad &amp; it makes for weird texture and combination of dry &amp; oily hair, but i want to! i've tried to tell him that if i did that i wouldn't have to heat style it &amp; it would save damage that way but he didn't buy it =( please post pics tomorrow! we wanna see your pretty hair! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229279 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 19:28:40 +0000 Mrs. Pen 229279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had never heard of it, but just looked it up - it looks sooo cool! Post pics PLEASE! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229253 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 18:52:07 +0000 Meridian 229253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: err, I actually have no idea how much it costs. My mom made the appointment. I wasn't planning to get one, but my mom is going to the Korean salon tomorrow for a regular perm and asked if I wanted to keep her company and get one too. I was like.... Hrmm, ok, sign me up for a digital perm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229246 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 18:42:21 +0000 MrsBrewer 229246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I ever have but I would love to! How much does it cost? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229244 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 18:41:02 +0000 Rubies 229244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: I want to get one done!!! Let me know how it turns out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229240 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 18:36:26 +0000 cokiezombie 229240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did when I was in Hong Kong. Really liked it because the waves are more relaxed and natural. Can't wait to see how yours turns out!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-get-a-digital-perm-before#post-229238 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 18:33:13 +0000 Meridian 229238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm getting a digital perm tomorrow and I'm kinda nervous! Anyone ever get one before? I know they attach you to a funky machine... I'm hoping for nice wavy hair instead of my current limp, straight hair. </p>
