Perms & American Waves Scottsdale AZ
Perming is another good option because it can add body, curls, and bounce to your hair.
If you have fine, limp hair and have been thinking of getting a perm, this is the right place for you. The days of tight poodle-type curls are behind us – nowadays, it’s all about size. From small rollers to large (1 ½ inch) rollers, our stylists will help you find the perfect perm for your hair type. A larger roller produces soft curls that look as if they were done with an expensive barreled device at home, while smaller rollers give you a spiral shape so you can get more volume and texture.
Curly hair can be difficult to manage and control, particularly when you’re dealing with a lot of volume. When you’re looking to lighten and cool down your locks, as well as your stress level, perming is a great way to go. With our perm procedures, we use bigger rollers or softer rollers than those naturally in your hair. This lets us break down curly hair and make a greenhorn curl with the American Wave technique so that you can enjoy beautiful, smooth locks.

Spiral Perm
Spiral perms create romantic spiral curls, a look that’s produced by winding the hair around special long curlers. Voluminous locks of curls will make your long hair appear much more attractive and thicker. By means of various sized curlers, stack perm gives curl and volume to a minimum of one-length haircuts. The hair on top of the highest is left unpermed while the middle and ends have curls and movement. Weave perms involve perming certain sections of hair and leaving the rest straight to convey a mixture of texture and natural-looking body and bounce, particularly around the face. This is often an awfully textured perm.
American Waves
It is a body wave that adds a replacement that seems to be a soft beach wave or soft waves that look natural and bouncy. There is a new trend in hair styling with waves, and your hair will love it because it is easy to style and wear. If you’ve been having trouble with your body in your hair, or like wearing an awfully natural everyday look that is casual and a little bit messy, this could be the plan you’ve been attempting to find. Always seek advice from your stylist if this will be the only look for you.
How Does Hair Perm Work?
A perm works by breaking down inner structures in your hair and reforming them around a curler to relinquish a replacement shape. Hair should be washed before perming as this causes the scales on the cuticles to rise gently, allowing the perming lotion to enter the hair shaft more quickly. The perming lotion alters the keratin and breaks down the sulfur bonds that link the fiber-like cells together within the inner layers of each hair. When these fibers become loose, they’ll be formed into a replacement shape when the hair is stretched over a curler or a perming rod. Once the curlers or rods are in place, more lotion is applied and the perm is left to develop to repair the new shape. The event time can vary depending on the condition and texture of the hair. When the event is complete, the changed links within the hair are reformed into their new shape by the appliance of a second chemical called the neutralizer. The neutralizer contains an oxidizer that’s effectively chargeable for closing up the broken links and producing the wave or curl permanently.
The type of curl that’s produced depends on the type of thing. The size of the curler is probably the most important factor, as this determines the size of the curl. Generally speaking, the smaller the curler, the smaller and thus tighter the curl, whereas medium-to-large curlers tend to have some looser effect. The strength of the lotion used may also make a difference, as can the texture and type of hair. Hair in fine condition takes a perm much better than hair in poor condition, and fine hair curls more easily than coarse hair.
After a perm, it takes 48 hours for the keratin within the hair to harden naturally. For now, the hair is in danger of harm and must be treated with care. Resist shampooing, brushing, vigorous combing, blow drying, or setting, any of which may cause the perm to drop. Once hair has been permed, it remains curly and shaped the way it has been formed, although new growth is straight. Sometimes curly hair may appear a few times more relaxed, which is really the effect of the long hair seen in this picture. The curls in your hair may soften as time goes by. Especially when you have long and curly hair. It weighs a lot more, causing it to make the curl and wave appear looser than on shorter hair.
