Do's & Don'ts for Permed Hair

Do

• Wait 48 hours before shampooing your hair.
• Wait 2 weeks to use conditioner on your hair unless your stylist instructs you to do so.
• Let your hair hang loose for the first 3 days after your perm. Your hair is extremely fragile and should be handled with gentle care.
• Rinse your hair with water for the first 2 days to help the curl bounce back.

Don't

• Don't shampoo your hair for the first 48 hours or you will cause your perm to become more relaxed and more frizzy.
• Don't use conditioner for the first 2 weeks unless your stylists instructs you to do so.
• Another thing to remember is that you should not pull your hair into a barrette or pony band for the first 3 days of your perm. If you pull your hair back it could become very limp.

Keeping your Perm Fresh!
Here are a few steps to keep your perm looking fresh!

• Allow your hair to air dry or use a diffuser to keep your perm intact. If you use a blow dryer, curling iron, hot rollers or any heat appliance your perm will relax and become frizzy.
• You should not stand under a hot forceful shower.
• Try to use products suggested by your stylist. This will insure the product will help your hair look it's best. By buying over the counter products you may make your hair look and feel heavy and dry because most over the counter products contain oil, lanolin, and wax which weight down hair and dry it out.
• By using a pick on your hair instead of a comb or a brush, you will keep your perm looking healthy and fresh!
