Rinsing Your Hair After a Perm
One of the most important things you can do after getting a perm is to rinse your hair properly.
When you get home from the salon, thoroughly rinse your hair with lukewarm water until all of the perm solution has been removed.
Then, shampoo and condition your hair as normal. Be sure to use a mild shampoo and conditioner so as not to damage your newly permed hair.
Protecting Your Perm From Heat Damage
Now that you have a perm, it's important to protect your hair from heat damage.
That means no more blow drying, curling, or flat ironing your hair!
If you absolutely must use heat on your hair, be sure to use a heat protectant spray first.
Also, try to let your hair air dry as much as possible and avoid using hot tools every day. By giving your hair a break from heat, you'll help extend the life of your perm.
Using the Right Products on Your Permed Hair
It's also important to use the right products on your newly permed hair.
Avoid using any heavy products like oils or leave-in conditioners, as these can weigh down your curls and make them look greasy.
Instead, opt for light products that won't weigh down your hair or cause build-up.
And be sure to use a deep conditioner at least once a week to keep your curls healthy and hydrated.
Taking care of a perm is not difficult if you know what steps to take.
Just be sure to rinse your perm properly, use the right products, and protect it from heat damage and you'll be able enjoy those curly locks for weeks to come!
