Women who like curly hair may opt to perm it in order to obtain long lasting results. The problem is that few women have the required knowledge to correctly apply the solution in order to obtain the best results. As a consequence, the curls turn out too tight or too loose and the hair gets really damaged. What shall we do when these problems arise?

If your hair shows no sign of curls, it means that the perming solution was inefficient, so you have to redo the job. Even though the solution did not take, your hair has, nevertheless, been subject to a chemical process, which is why you have to nourish your tresses with various products before you perm them again.

At the opposite pole, tight ringlets are no longer considered flattering, these days, so you need to wash your hair as soon as you see that the perming solution was too strong. Hair experts recommend women to apply a hydrating mask and massage the locks with it for several minutes. This way, the curls will loosen and they will gain a more natural look. Repeated washings will allow you to obtain the desired results, but it may take a while.

If you don’t have enough time to wash those curls away, you may resort to a faster, yet rougher technique that is often used by hair dressers to counteract excessive ringlets. The method is actually very simple: you need to re-apply the perming solution on your hair and gently comb your tresses from roots to ends until you notice that your hair has begun to straighten.

Wide-tooth combs are great for women who want to obtain a wavy hairstyle; whereas women who want to thoroughly cancel the results of the perm should use a fine-tooth comb. The perming solution needs only 15 minutes to do its job; afterward, you may rinse the hair and apply a nourishing mask in order to make sure that you haven’t damaged your tresses too much. In case your locks are a little bit brittle we recommend you to get a leave-in conditioner to avoid split ends.
