Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Short Hair Perm.

Most Short Hair Perms hold for two to four months; with proper care they can last up to six months. Longevity depends on hair type, previous chemical services, maintenance, and styling routines. We recommend touch-ups and product support for best results.

When performed by our experienced stylists using professional solutions, damage is minimized. We assess hair condition first and recommend strengthening treatments or bond-repair services when necessary. Follow at-home care and regular trims to maintain healthy hair integrity.

Avoid washing or heavy styling for the first 48 hours to set the curl pattern. Use sulfate-free shampoo, a hydrating conditioner, and weekly protein or moisture treatments. Diffuse on low heat, avoid excessive brushing, and refresh with curl cream or sea-salt spray as needed.

Often yes, but color history matters. We perform a strand and scalp assessment to ensure hair integrity and compatibility. Depending on timing and type of color, we may recommend waiting, a conditioning service, or alternative techniques to protect strands and achieve the desired result.

Appointments range from 90 minutes to two and a half hours, including consultation, sectioning, rod placement, processing, neutralizing, and finishing. Time varies with hair thickness, previous treatments, and curl complexity; your stylist will provide a precise estimate during booking.

Choose sulfate-free shampoos, lightweight conditioners, and silicone-free leave-ins to preserve shape. Use curl creams, light mousse, or sea-salt sprays to enhance texture and avoid heavy oils that weigh curls down. Always apply a heat protectant before styling with hot tools.
