FAQs for about getting a Perm with V For Hair
How long does a perm last?
A perm typically lasts between 3-6 months, depending on your hair type, aftercare, and the type of perm. With proper maintenance, you can enjoy beautiful curls or waves for months.
Will a perm damage my hair?
Modern perming solutions are much gentler than in the past, and with Georgina’s expertise, your hair’s health is always a priority. We assess your hair’s condition before starting and provide aftercare recommendations to keep your hair looking and feeling great.
Can I perm colour-treated hair?
Yes, perms can be done on color-treated hair, but it’s essential to check your hair’s health and strength. Georgina will consult with you to determine if your hair is suitable for perming and may recommend treatments to strengthen it beforehand if needed.
How do I care for my hair after getting a perm?
For best results, avoid washing your hair for at least 48 hours after the perm, and use sulfate-free, moisturising products designed for curly or permed hair. Regular conditioning and avoiding excessive heat will keep your curls looking fresh and healthy.
How long does the perming process take?
The process typically takes between 2-3 hours, depending on the style you choose and your hair’s length and thickness. During your consultation, Georgina will provide an estimate based on your desired outcome.
Can I straighten my hair after getting a perm?
Yes, you can temporarily straighten permed hair with a blow dryer or straightener, but we recommend limiting heat styling to avoid loosening your curls over time. When you want to go back to curls, just wash and style as usual.
What type of perm is best for me?
Georgina offers various perming styles, from tight spiral curls to loose body waves. During your consultation, she will discuss your hair type, lifestyle, and desired look to recommend the perfect perm that complements you.
Can men get perms, too?
Absolutely! Perms are popular among men looking to add texture or volume to their hair. The “top perm” is a favorite, giving men a stylish, modern look with added definition on the top of the head.
Is there any downtime after getting a perm?
We recommend waiting 48 hours before washing your hair or using any styling products. This downtime allows the perm to set, giving you the best long-term results.
Can I book a consultation before committing to a perm?
Yes! We encourage all clients to book a consultation with Georgina. She’ll answer any questions you may have, discuss your style goals, and assess your hair to determine the best perm type and maintenance plan for you.Whether it’s your first perm or you’re looking to try a new style, our team is here to make sure you’re informed, comfortable, and excited about your fresh new look!
