Hey people, I was wondering, how long does your hair have to be to perm it because I know it shrinks a bit when you do. i have dead straight shoulder length hair and I'm still deciding on whether to perm or not

well it depends on what kind of perm your getting..the tighter the curl the shorter you hair is going to be after you perm it.I too have straight hair and its a little longer than shoulder length.Im getting a light wave..kinda liek mary kate/ashley olsen thing.hope it helps.

I'm not yet sure what sort of perm I would like to get yet. If i get a light wave/bodyperm, i'm afraid that it will go straight quite quickly. I want something that will stay in for a couple of months.
