Get the Curly Hair Look You Want with Today’s Modern Perms

When we think of perms, we tend to automatically think of the frizzy hair perms of the 80s and 90s. While there are some looks today that go for that vintage style, today’s modern perms are completely different. Not only do they give you different looks and styles, but they also care for your hair to avoid frizz.

Style types. Unlike in the 80s, there are a ton of different curl styles you can get from today’s modern perms. Today, the expert stylists here at The Full Spectrum have the tools and products to create the perfect type of curl for the style you’re looking for. The difference is in how the perm rods are applied, and some of the options include:
 

• Spiral 

• Brick lay pattern

• Piggyback pattern

• Beach wave

Along with the size of the rods, the application pattern makes a difference in the finished look so that you get the exact style of curls you want. 

Hair condition. With today’s modern perms, the emphasis is on healthy hair. New innovations in perm formulas focus on maintaining the strength and softness of your hair while gently altering its bonds to create curl. As a result, modern perms steer clear of the frizz and result in beautifully defined, healthy-looking curls.

Aftercare. Maintaining that salon-fresh look after a perm requires careful attention to the types of products you use and your exposure to heat. Your expert Full Spectrum stylist will help you choose the right hair care products for your hair type and texture to keep it soft and healthy-looking. You’ll also want to shampoo less often, condition regularly, and avoid heated styling tools when possible to keep your style looking great. Most curly hairstyles look best when air-dried rather than blow-dried because the blow dryer can affect the way curls look. If you do need to blow dry, use a diffuser so you’re gentle on your curls.
