Hi everyone,

I am going to get my first perm soon and would like to know what you
think the minimum length has to be to have a perm. I had my head
shaved almost totally about 70 days ago, but since then I have let it
grow back out. Every time I grow my hair out it gets super wavy. Plus
I have very thick hair. So I have decided that I would just finally
give in and become a complete and total curly head. I want to have a
super tight, small curls type of perm. I want the curls to stay as tight
as possible for as long as possible. I am not interested in any more
waves, just curls, curls, curls.
Could someone share advice and suggestions. Also, what kind of perm
is best. I would not mind a Zotos from what I have read so far.
Finally I am looking for a female stylist to do this somewhere in the
South Central Georgia area who can take care of all the above needs.
Any suggestions woill be greaty appreciated.

Signed,

Preparing to be tightly permed

A perm is a big decision.
I've got one done just last year and I'll tell you, the minute the stylist took out the rods, I had regrets. Now that my hair's grown mid-back my hair looks marvolous with a perm. But enough about me, this is about you.
I really recommend a spiral perm, it comes out beautifully when your hair grows out. But this is your choice and if your willing to do this go for it!
