The Good and the Bad of Specialty Perms


It’s totally understandable if you want to have a new look. You’ve been wearing your hair straight for too
long and it’s time you need a change, a good change. During special events, you’ve always curled your hair and believe that it looks good on you. And now, you’re considering having it permed. Should you or should you not?

When dealing with hair, you need to put more thought into it. It’s because the hair can get easily damaged by chemicals and specialty perms use chemicals. However, every person’s hair is different. Some can withstand the chemical process and some cannot.

It is best that you inform yourself of the good and bad side of specialty perms, so you’ll know what to expect when you step into that Port Richey hair salon.

The Good
·         Perming can make you look better. It gives your hair style and more life. And having awesome hair will improve your self-esteem and confidence too.
·         Specialty perms will definitely add volume to your hair. If you have thin hair, perming will give it a volume boost.
·         Perming helps you style your hair quicker every day. There’s less fuss and hassle in styling the hair, since curled hair just usually requires drying and applying a hair product. No more curling irons, no more blow drying, you can easily get away with the “bed head” look and still look gorgeous. Plus, saving time and effort in the process.

The Bad
·         After the treatment, the Port Richey salon will ask you not to wash the hair for at least two days. This is a perming rule because washing can loosen the curls. Well, it’s not really that bad. You just have to live with your hair smelling like chemicals for two days.
·         Perming can make your hair dry and frizzy due to the chemicals. People with already dry hair aren’t recommended to have perms, the hair will get drier.
·         You have to stick with the hairstyle you have. While permed hair is more convenient, it’s less flexible. Unlike with straight hair, you can do tons of things with it.
·         Your hair can become weaker since the S-S protein bonds are reformed. Thus, the hair will be more prone to split ends and breakage.

The good thing about specialty perms nowadays is that there are so many hair products that will help retain the moisture of the hair and prevent it from drying, breaking or falling. Surely, the Port Richey hair salon has a curly hair line of products to offer. Also, if you want to make sure that you experience the good side more than the bad; ask the Port Richey salon about follow-up hair treatments that can be done.
