I recently had my layered very straight hair permed and though I love the curls ow do i keep them looking more bouncy and " alive" as opposed to crunchy and stuck together. Should I just air dry it so it doesn't get to frizzy and dried out? I just need some tips on keeping it looking "natural" as opposed to " big perm head" Thanks Susannah

Hi! Try a spray gel or acidifier to keep the curls defined & smoother. My favorite is Dream Curls by John Frieda...a little pricey, but well worth it. Also, when you're drying it, I think the best thing to do is let it air dry until its just damp, then scrunch upside-down, gently, with a towel. Before it gets totally dry, spray in the gel & scrunch again with your fingers. Be careful not to put too much gel in or to put it in when its still really wet, or else it might look kinda greasy. A finishing spray or polishing gel might help, too. I like Citre Shine Shine Gloss spray- the stuff's a miracle. I know John Frieda makes at least one, too, but I've never used it. Hope this helps! I've never had a perm (mine's naturally curly), but I think this'll work for ya... Love, Inga PS- avoid using a blowdryer as much as possible...it will dry your hair out and leave it frizzy. Good luck!!! ------------- If I had wings then I could take you in I'd stay on the ground and show you some things The grass is strewn with blades of gold all sights and sounds I have been told all hopes, desires, seem to sing |

Another produc that I've used is called Springing Curls by Loreal. I really like it. ------------- "Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" |

I Love Curly Sexy Curl enhancer by Sexy Hair concepts. One thing to remember, after you apply a product to your curls DO TOUCH YOUR CURLS. If you handle them too much they will become frizzy. ------------- I am a professional Hairstylist/Haircolorist with 19 years experience.
