Perming is a complex technical operation that involves the careful and accurate application of potentially damaging chemicals to the client's hair. If you get it right then quite possibly, no-one will ever know that the hair has been permed (except the client that is).
A permanent wave, commonly called a perm or "permanent", involves the use of heat and/or chemicals to break and reform the cross-linking bonds of the hair structure. The hair is washed and wrapped on a form and waving lotion or 'reagent' is applied. This solution reacts chemically softening the inner structure of the hair by breaking some of the cross links within and between the protein chains of the hair. The hair swells, stretches and softens, then moulds around the shape of the form.
Our Perming course to how a perm works is the perfect place to develop your understanding of perming basics.
