Also, you can refresh your hair every day by misting water over it in the shower or sink. You don't have to wash it with shampoo, just get it wet to add back moisture and to get your curl pattern back. Then add a lightweight conditioner. Water is moisture, so that makes a big difference. Curly hair looses moisture a lot quicker. Then let it air dry or hover a diffuser over it on low heat. Other than adding product, don't touch it with your hands until it is completely dry. That adds frizz.
Interesting how you said that you find it easier to style! I heard so many curly girls say curls are harder but honestly, its not easy to style straight hair either. As soon as hair salons are open again I will definitely get a perm! Cant wait!!
@@LenaxBasco i have a question. do u think that curlier perms would be harder to handle? i noticed ur perm was pretty wavy, but i was wondering if it was more curly, would it be too much of a hassle? i wanna get it curlier but im not sure because some people say that if you brush thru tangles the curl would be extended and look weird compared to the other curls
@@user-pm2zv9fs5r there are videos on here that will give you all the information your looking for and show the different amount of curl you can get, one piece of advice ask for a ‘spiral wind’ perm the effect is quite different to a normal wind, also be aware after about a month it will ‘drop’ meaning your hair will relax so if it looks tight at first it will be slightly looser after about a month so don’t be afraid to use smaller perm rods. I’m a retired hairdresser who was having ‘poodle’ perms back in the 80s 😳 I’ve just had my first perm in over 20 years and WOW! 🤩 I love it. I hope you have/had your perm it was a success and your having some fun with it.
@@user-pm2zv9fs5r natrual curly here and yes its honestly hard to manage since its super easy for your hair to turn into a frizz mess and you should not brush it dry because it will ruin the curls , but I dont know if the same goes for perms as well or not
This video is a LIFESAVER! I have super thick hair that has like 3 waves in it and weird curly bits in the front so I want some consistency. You answered all of my questions, plus some! I am SO excited to set up a perm appointment now!

This was very helpful! I’ve been wanting to get a perm for a while and I stumbled across your previous videos which were also helpful. I love your hair so much! ❤️
First, your doggo is ADORABLE!!! Second, you are BEAUTIFUL! Third, this was such a great, informative video! I really appreciate the timestamps and your honesty. Great to see a video out here for Korean women looking into getting a perm!
I just got a perm and love it. I did a loose curl. Only have to wash every 4 to 5 days. I like how you use only few products. I see a lot of videos that suggest multiple products. It can be overwhelming the choices that are out there. Thanks for video.
for ppl that are thinking on getting a perm ,watch videos on natural wavy/curly hair, to know how to manage Wavy/curly hair, you can learn how to manage frizz ,tangles etc .
I have naturally curly hair. But i have been chemically straightening it for so long and I want to stop now. But currently half of my hair is straight and half of it is curly because of the transition and it looks soo weird. I want to get a perm now. What do you suggest? ♥️
I’ve been watching all your perm videos love it! I really love your videos they’re so professional looking and super entertaining! I’ve learned so much and I’m super excited to get a perm now :)
Just wanted to quickly mention that your roots dropped in volume also because your hair grows. It make sense for it to flatten because your new hair will be straight. I got a perm years back and I’m considering to get them done again. Thanks for the video.
Your hair looks great! Very healthy. I'm 47 years old, so I lived through big bar hair of the 80's and 90's. I've had several perms and I'm looking at videos, so my daughter can perm my hair in a couple weeks. I've noticed current you tubers are saying things like - don't highlight or colour hair and perm, but if your hair is as healthy as your's is it would actually benefit you because it would open cuticle a bit to help absorb perm solution. So, if you want real spirals or actual curly hair, I would perm it again now and the next perm will take. This perm did not take. If I was you I would have asked for a refund. It's too late now, but go to someone who gave perms in the 90's and they know what they are doing. Your hair texture now, is how mine is naturally and I call that straight. You don't need much product, just some argon oil and mousse. Scrunch it damp and air dry or quick wand of blow drier until damp dry. I'm guessing. This is frustrating because you barely have a wave, you were overcharged. Sorry
Loved your video!!! I gained so much insight. I FEEL YOU! Having asian straight hair, even a small amount of volume brings me happiness. I’m thinking about getting a perm and not quite sure if I will do it yet. I’d love to know if you experienced damage to your hair at a level where you might not recommend a perm... or if it even damaged your hair at all? i was looking in the comments if someone had asked you, but I didn’t find anything. Let me know. I’d really appreciate it!
Thank you for watching! I noticed my hair was very frizzy overall especially mid to ends. my fingers would get caught when running my hands through my hair. I would get it done again only if my hair is healthy. I wouldn't get it done on dyed hair again. The combination of previously dyed hair and perm left my hair frizzy and brittle.Hope this helps!
@@LenaxBasco anytime, glad to support your page and a fellow Asian content creator 🤍 Yes! That really helps. I’ve grew out most of all my old died blonde hair. I’m enjoying my healthy hair, but I want some dang texture and effortless curls!! Haha One other question, did the perm dry out your hair? Did it dry out your roots? I have pretty oily hair and I hope a perm can also help me not have to wash it as much.
I had a perm as a kid (in the late 1960's) that was so tight and curly that over 2 years later I had to put a relaxer on it! It was HORRIBLE!! I brought a photo, but the stylist did not give me what I wanted...but thankfully I had tough hair back then. Now it's pretty thin but I'm tired of straight (stick straight!) hair that can be curled for hours and as soon as I go outside it goes straight...I want a wavy perm,,,
@@GraceKoenigstein yay, happy for you! :) was your hair of low porosity and healthy? Mine is medium/medium to low porosity and "wavy" (" '' because sadly the waves straightened a lot and my hair looks more straight with wrinkles) and I am thinking about doing a perm. I worry though that here in Poland they may not have this newer, various types of perm? I don't know, I just don't want to end up with a lot of thin ringlets but pretty waves...
Aleksandra Z Thank you :)! I think my hair has good porosity. It was / is healthy. And I hope your hair works out with a perm. Hopefully in Poland they have what perm you’re looking for :)
Hi Lena, I recently got my hair permed about 2 weeks ago, and then had to have it re-permed because it didn't curl at all the first time. Now it's tight and curly similar to what yours looks like, I just don't like the way it looks on me :( How long did it take for your perm to completely fall out/grow out?
Straight-haired people DONT UNDERSTAND that the issue with wavy/curly hair is not THE CURL PATTERN...BUT TEXTURE. Of course silky straight low-porosity hair will look good with some artificial curls. I have really coarse high porosity wavy hair and it's a nightmare. Unless I get keratin or a professional blow out it just feels bad to the touch.
Just wanted to let you know that I love your virgin hair! I'm not saying the perm looks bad or anything, I like it, just wanted you to know that I (and many of my friends) think the exact type of hair that you have is incredibly gorgeous, the silkiness and sleekness, the perfect straightness, the depth of the colour, the low porosity... Just ah, a dream of many of us Slavic girls! 😍 A lot of women with typical Slavic hair wish for our hair to be like yours, since ours is often "wrinkled" (neither wavy nor straight, with a big tendency to frizz) and of high or medium porosity. Thanks for this video, very informative. 🙂
I've been thinking about getting a perm and your videos have been very helpful! I have a pretty different hair texture from you though so I'm not sure if my experience will be entirely the same, but I think I might give it a try? Do you have to go to a Japanese salon to get a perm done? Or can you go to any type of salon?
Thank you! I don't think going to a Japanese salon is necessary but definitely go to one that's reputable. Ask them if they can do a consultation over the phone. Most salons should accommodate especially if they truly care for their clients. Hope that helps!
The trick with a diffuser is to first apply your products to protect your hair including your leave in conditioner. A styling cream or gel and a heat protectant. Then do not touch your hair with the diffuser. Hang your hair upside-down and hover the diffuser over your head. That will prevent frizz and help speed up air dry. Move your head around as you diffuse to help with volume and movement. Don't stay upside-down the whole time.
Ironically I have naturally wavy hair and I want your original hair :P.......This is a never ending dispute of each person that they yearn for stuff that they don't have XD
Tip: when your hair is still sopping wet after rinsing just distribute some conditioner throughout your hair; don’t rinse just blot your hair and use a wide tooth comb scrunch with hands or wrap in a cotton shirt for 15 minutes or more and then just let air dry. Putting some conditioner in while your hair is sopping wet is like leaving in a a detangle spray.
Your video really helped me deciding whether to get a perm or not!! The answer is yes :))) it will grow back, anyway and I also love to change my hair very often! Short, long, bangs...
@@LenaxBasco I did it and i love it! My hair is shorter, up to the shoulders and curling rods were a bit smaller than yours so I have a bit 80's style now but it looks good!!! I have a big hair now 😁💪
Maki hey so I’m thinking about getting a perm. But I’m not sure if I should do It. My hair is dark brown, soft, I haven’t done anything to it like bleached it and stuff. Any recommendations?
i want to get a perm so bad my hair used to be very curly when i was in elementary and middle school but after straightening it so much i got heat damaged, but now i want curls back i am just wondering if it’s still save for me to get a perm?
Not that anybody asked but I got a really curly/ ringlet perm 5 days ago and most strands are already straight as heck. It makes sense bc my ethnicity is Vietnamese (also a naturally straight-haired gal), but oh GOD is my hair absolutely DEAD now. If I could do back, I would NOT get a perm.
I live in a Southern state, USA. For the past 5 years I've gotten a perm, right when the weather heats up with no regrets. I have "Asian" hair, straight and almost no texture. I still need to do a little heat styling to make my hair set right. During the summer after I heat style, my hair will look nice for about 15 minutes but then the humidity gets the best of me, and my hair gets wonky. It took 2 years to convince myself to get a perm, I didn't want the 80's big hair. Luckily, I found a stylist that does a great job! She uses the orange rods, and she layers my hair (long layers), the result is "beachy waves". I wash, use a curl setter and go. If you're on the fence, just do it but find someone that knows what they're doing and show pictures of exactly how you want your hair to look like.
Hi Lenax, I'm considering getting a perm for my also very straight and Asian hair. I am worried about the texture after the perm and how long it will last, does your hair feel any different than it did before the perm? Thank you :) Belle
Hi! My hair still has texture from the perm, loose waves than curly. The curls will last about 3 months before it begins to loosen significantly. Besides the texture and mildly dry ends, my hair feels the same. Hope that helps!
@@LenaxBasco I did!!! I had it done two days ago and I absolutely love it! I’m so happy. I don’t think I have ever been so happy with my hair before! I just washed it for the first time so I’m not sure what the fall out will be like once it dries... I hope it doesn’t fall out too much. I’ll probably use a diffuser soon and see what happens :)
@@tomatoes732 unfortunately it didn’t stay in very long. It took better on the bottom layer of my hair and the top didn’t stay curly. I should have researched better for someone who does perms often. My hair is long also so she had to use two curlers per strand. It took a very long time and it didn’t hold. I still recommend people try it, just look for someone who has a lot of experience.

Perming your hair vs using heat curling iron frequently, which would be more damaging? What do u think?
Definitely curling iron
Going to the salon next wednesday to see if my stylist thinks my hair is suited for a perm!! I freaking hope so, my hair is so straight and boring lol
Good luck!!
Can you use a curling iron to make your hair more curly after it starts to fall or something? Or does that ruin the perm?
Applying heat will loosen the curls faster
LenaxBasco thank you!
Does perm damages your hair?
It quite literally changes the structure/DNA of your hair strands. It breaks them, and remolds them basically.
what salon did u go to?
NananaParena in West LA 😊
Wel is it perm of any kind??jst hahahaha
