Hello everyone!
I'm new to the site and I have a couple of questions concerning "curly" perms.
I've been relaxing my hair for several years now, and lately, I've been kind of sad because even when the relaxer has grown out, I notice my hair, at best, will be wavy. Most of the time, by the time it dries, it's only slightly wavy at the ends. I've been thinking of getting a curly perm to try and get the nice curls I use to have when I was younger....
Does anyone here have previous experience with them? Is it more or less damaging than the straightening perm/relaxer?
Also, does anyone have recommendations as to what brands/where to get these curly perms? I was told to get one specifically for Afro-American hair because the regular perms you buy in the grocery store wouldn't work because they're meant for European hair...
Gotta say, though, I love the site so far (so helpful!) and I've recently made some purchases, per your advice. Hope to see results that everyone else seems to be getting!
