I haven't. Been tempted to, but never have.
-
a magic straight perm!
my hair is half wavy ish, so i've never wanted to spend the $ on a curl perm
-
Oh god, my perms. My mom let me get perms in elementary school, and holy mother of god, were they terrible. Big poofy curls. Oi. I got one in HS that wasn't too bad, but bad enough that I cut it off pretty quickly... I've been afraid to try them as an adult!
-
My mom use to perm my hair on the regular. It would burn my hair off..... I hated them so much!
-
Do you mean like this awesomeness, circa 1990?!
-
I always wanted super curly hair. I had several perms in elementary school and my hair always turned out straight! Those things never worked for me.
-
@hergreenapples: hehe, awesomeness indeed!
-
@hergreenapples: The permed bangs are the best part. Hahahah, that's such an awesome look, I love it.
-
My mom did it to me once, one of the at-home kits. It only held for like a week (thank god, because it looked AWFUL). I wish my hair had some curl in it but that experience sort of scared me away from doing anything to curl my hair besides using my curling iron.
-
I got a perm 5 yrs ago- but not bad 80's perm, more of a wavy perm
-
No I have great hair that curls!
-
My mom/aunt/and I did a "7 day at home perm". It didn't really work, just made some weird kind of waves, but it lasted until my hair grew out! Not 7 days!
-
Hehe! Since college I've always had either a magic straight perm or a digital or setting wave perm. Right now I'm sporting tight waves that end just past the shoulders and I love it. It's the first time they permed some volume into the top of my hair, and I LOVE it-- when I pull my hair into a quick knot, it looks like a curly updo!
-
My mom used to perm my short hair...it was awful! haha
-
I have had a spiral perm since I was 7! Most people assume I have curly hair, when in fact it is SUPER straight.
-
@mrs. wagon: They can perm volume at the top!? I've been teasing my hair all this time when I could've had it permed?! Do you go to an Asian salon? Is there a technical name for a perm with volume at the crown?I love volume at the top... the higher the hair, the closer to God
-
My mom tried to give me a perm when I was 7 or so, but it didn't hold.
@hergreenapples: That picture is great, haha. Gotta love the 90s!
-
I have always wanted a perm, but my hairdresser keeps refusing. Haha
-
I haven't, but my mom did. She already had fairly curly hair so she ended up with an afro. My mom is as white as it comes!
-
I use to get a perm once a month when I was a kid and it would take 2 hours just to set the curlers in my hair! I hated the process but love the look. Last one I got fried my hair its taken over a year for it to get healthy again! Never again!
-
I had so many perms as a kid, but none as an adult. My hair is thick and straight...I would kill for curls like Keri Russell!
-
I got a perm in 3rd grade. I had short, wavy hair. Everyone called my Curly Sue!
-
I've had lots of perms but not in the last 10 years. I was going to get one a few months back but instead opted for a chop.
-
@keiki_mama: lol! I have no idea.. I was at a Korean salon and my mom was talking to the hairdresser about my post partum hair loss. The lady put the perm chemical in the top of my hair in strips (like highlighting kind of) and placed a roller under each section. The result is just a tiny bit of lift but it makes such a huge difference!!
-
I got a perm in freshman year. I don't recommend it if you are a low maintenance type of person when it comes to your hair. I was quite naive back then and didn't really make the effort to put mouse in my hair every day and it was horrible. hehehe The good thing that came out of it was that the curls in my hair would stay when it curl it. Before, the curls would never stay since I had fine, straight hair.
