Curly perms are now back in style, so get out those shoulder pads and prepare to throw back to the 80s. If you just left the salon with a head full of fresh curls following this treatment, you may be wondering what your new permed hair care regimen comprises. Here are some tips for keeping your lusciously healthy after a curly or Korean perm treatment at a Singapore salon.

#1 Understand Your Perm

Creating a maintenance regimen that fits your curls, whatever your hair type, length, and texture, is essential. Consult with your stylist about the best way you go about your regimen. Ask them as many questions as you can about maintaining your hair perm. Your stylist will be familiar with the texture and condition of your hair before and after treatment. Hence, they are the most suitable people to advise you on your next style steps.

#2 Avoid Washing Too Soon

One of the most common mistakes in permed hair maintenance is washing the hair too soon after the procedure. Always listen to your hairstylist. It is typical and best to wait 48 hours following a hair perm before washing it. It will let the various chemicals in the perming mixture settle and activate.

#3 Find & Use the Right Products

Perming can leave your hair feeling dry or damaged. Use products to help repair your hair after the perming procedure while washing your tresses. Use products that nourish your hair from root to tip to fight this. Treat your permed hair in the same manner as natural waves. Use curl-specific products and styling procedures to get the best curls daily.

#4 Find the Best Tools

Fresh curls require a few essential items to cover their style bases. Get a diffuser attachment if you use a hairdryer on your long hair. It will direct heat precisely where you need it. It reduces friction on the hair cuticle for a frizz-free finish. If you opted for a hair perm to give volume to your short hair, use a little round brush to blow-dry it. It will raise the hair at the root, giving the illusion of more voluminous tresses.

#5 Avoid Being Overly Cautious

You can stop being scared to restructure or reshape your new curls. Most hair perm procedures are permanent. Hence, your new waves will stay put no matter how much you style them. It gives you an infinite number of additional style options to play with your hair.

#6 Stop Being Afraid of Sleeping on It

If it is your first time getting a hair perm, sleeping on it can be daunting and intimidating. Avoid waking up with tangled or unkempt hair by sleeping with it knotted in a silk scarf or a silk pillowcase. This technique reduces the amount of friction on the cuticle, minimising texture and frizz.
