I just got a perm and I hate it. I would like to take it out again. If I wanted to do it myself, how would I do it?

Dear hezzy:

You can take a perm out by using a perm and combing it through your permed hair. Make sure you comb straiight down until you see the curl relaxing. You can go all the way straight or leave some wave in. Rinse out the perm being careful not to ruffle up the hair then comb the neutralizer through for 5 minutes. This will be very damaging to your hair so you should make sure you shampoo and condition with professional products or else your hair will look like hay. Good luck. Forest
