Hey guys, ok it's been roughly 4 months since I got my perm.
I still like it a lot. A side effect I thought I would notice would be that my hair quality would go down and leave it dry and brittle...well maybe it's because I condition my hair daily so I can actually comb it, but the quality seems better than ever. The perm is still stronger than ever, my hair took to it beautifully.
I did straighten it several weeks ago to find the length and thickness to be incredibly improved. I love it being LONG and STRAIGHT! It actually looks good being long for the first time in my life! SO now...how does one keep this awesome look as their perm grows out?
I do like the versatility of having curly one day and straight the next...that is awesome.
Also my ends are starting to look a little frayed about 1/4 to 1/2 of an inch might be needed to trim them up but I most certainly don't need another perm. Should I go back to the original stylist or trust someone here...which I've had bad experiences in the LBK.
My previous stylist was AWESOME she layered it beautifully and shaped it toward my face and the cut was just fabulous overall.
Going home would require a 300 mile drive one way...kind of don't want to go just for that.

Thanks guys!
