[@marisoto9873]

I think when said braid she meant braid all of her so it gives a wavy effect. Not just braid her hair as one. In order to have the wavy hair you have to braid individual pieces of your hair. Also permed hair is a bit more easier to take care of than natural curly hair.

[@itskindyl]

I’m not a hairstylist but I do have curly hair, and brushing curls are a big no no.

[@findmyforever1]

Kindyl De Keyrel agreed! Brushing curly hair is a big no but especially just after a perm. After rinsing a perm the hair is still setting so when you brush it you’re creating frizz so it’s going to set and “perm” in that frizz too 😩

[@prakie1]

I’m not even an hairstyling but I was like nah that ain’t right. are you ready for your frizzy perm?

[@AlejandraHernandez-yh6yc]

Completely agree! I have four kids and I always felt like I never had time to style my hair. After getting a curly perm I feel it always looks like at least made an effort to do my hair. Curly hair does take more time but as long as you’re caring for it you’re good to go. I apply leave it conditioner, curling cream, scrunch and let air dry and I’m good for a few days until my next wash day. In the mornings all I do it spritz hair a bit with warm water add refresher spray if needed and my hair looks much better than when I had my natural straight hair

[@michellevazquez6268]

[@maggierobertson2962]

This is a great eoutine, but she needs to find the right products, stop drying with towels and get a satin or silk pillowcase or scarf and probably a Denman brush. She has no idea what she is doing. It's really not that hard to do, but learning it isnt simple.

why did they.. cut it all off ???

[@Faeriecoma]

I know I thought it'd be cool to see long curly hair

[@brittnaywarfel6198]

From the before shots it looked like she had old grown out highlights and when you perm hair that’s been previously lightened with bleach it makes the hair look and feel very over processed. I’m assuming they used a perm for “color treated” hair thinking it might be okay but as soon as they took out those rods her hair was probably stringy as hell and that’s why they cut it off. That’s just my assumption though.

@@sakinakherbi5177 yeah totally should ban it! I now usually resort to cutting my own hair even I know I'll mess it up because I can't find salon that would listen to me to not use razor on my naturally coarse wavy hair. Here in my country, most salon are operated by chinese and they expect straight hair and treated every head like straight hair. So they are not used to naturally wavy, curly and fluffy hair except the fake (permed ones). Even when operated by my race, Malay, i guess they learn in hair school also Chinese style to cut like straight hair too. So when after washing, obviously my hair will be puffy when they blow dry and use brushes on dry hair and they will feel it's too puffy and use razor to thin it..i always say beforehand to not use that tool, but they'll still use it. When i say, if you use that and the lengths are different, the curls won't clump together and it will not curl. And they'll say, no, if you want your hair to curl use mousse 🙄🤷🏾‍♀️ i gave up looking for salons that can cut wavy curly natural puffy hair

@Kyla Depends, I have some sort of um "special" type of hair, it's straight with some waves and hard change colors, going from a little bit dark brown to straight up blonde depending on how I care for it, I have to wash my hair at least two times every shower with different shampoos and for some reason I have to constantly change shampoos because after a while they darken my hair. I also need conditioner sometimes to make it look better but sometimes I'm too lazy to put it on. I have to wash it everyday and it's really tiring, when I don't wash it for 2-3 days it looks really ugly and when I finally shower I have to wash it first with soap to get rid of all of the grease (incredibly greasy hair) and then at least 3 times with shampoo. I also have a horrendous frizzy hair and it's the worse I've ever seen, I need to use creams for styling and brushing and I still get frizz and have to brush my hair like once every hour for it to calm down. I also have to wait for it to dry itself because if I heat-dry it, it becomes dark, same when I iron it. That means that I have to shower before sleeping if I need to be ready the next day at 6:00 and put it in a bun so it doesn't dry completely and I get to style it in the morning. I'm supposed to get treatment for the grease but I don't want to waste money and I feel like first going to a professional hairdresser to ask what the fuck is going on with my hair because all this care is tiring. My curly friend does almost the time, except washing every single time every day and she always used heat and has a really healthy hair nonetheless, and she doesn't have to worry about color because she is a really dark brown and beautiful defined curls. Just for context, I'm not Caucasian (white) nor black, just like my friends with curly defined hair, they also don't have African.

[@christinaborden5325]

True.. but a perm isn't as difficult to take care of as natural curly hair.

[@NewestDays]

I've had a 'modern perm'. It was THE most demanding thing I've ever done to my hair. The amount of conditioning is required to look good was ridiculous, and using a hairdryer was just out of the question unless I wanted to look like a poodle. It was better after having it for like 2-3 months when it had gone down enough that the curls weren't as unmanageable. Just in case anyone watching this got inspired by the 'so easy, so fast' promises. It's not like that for everyone.

Welcome to the life of a curly girl

[@harika1357]

The thing is she has a very beautiful face so any style can suit her

[@catherinepattersonmcelroy8336]

As someone who has gotten a perm once a year for 10 years, I can honestly say having permed, curly hair is far easier to style than my previous frizzy, straight hair. I can't speak for the maintenance of natural curly hair though, but I hear it's far more difficult. Before I had to straighten it or curl it so it had some definition. It also got flat and oily so quickly. With a perm, I throw curl defining product in my hair and walk out the door. It keeps my hair from getting oily as quickly and it keeps the volume. I love how low maintenance it is!!

I'm not a hair person but my guess is they were cutting off dead ends and if you have seen a curly girl with straightened hair curls take off a significant length of hair so my guess is a combo of cutting of dead ends and the curls themselves making the hair a lot shorter

Thing is curly hair looks good if you don't take care of it. Try not using any products on curly hair, not even brush or comb, for a week or two, and do the same with straight hair. Straight hair will look like haystacks while curly hair will still look decent.

[@normalman7846]

@@tubax926 let me ask, do you have curly hair? Because I do, and my hair will become frizzy matted and look rough if I dont do anything with it for one week, let alone two. Straight hair also doesnt need to specifically look for "straight hair" products, and they dont have to worry about their hair looking frizzy, just brush through it, add a little bit of oil, or water. But with curly hair you cannot do that. Im not saying stright hair is easy, but it sure is a lot easier than curly hair. Just simply look up curly hair routine and hair routine and see how they differ. Sorry for the essay but I thought this should be said.

[@tubax926]

@@normalman7846 I have 2c hair so wavy-curly. Only thing worse for curly hair is that if you mess up styling it when its wet you have to rewet it and begin from the beginning.
