Curly Perm

A curly perm (short for permanent wave) is a chemical hair treatment that creates long-lasting curls or waves in straight or relaxed hair. It’s ideal for people who want to add volume, bounce, and texture that lasts for months.

💡 What is a Curly Perm?

  • Hair is wrapped around rods and treated with a perm solution that breaks and resets the hair’s natural structure.

  • After neutralizing and setting, the hair takes on a new curly or wavy shape.

  • The results can range from tight curls to loose waves, depending on rod size and technique.
