I am 15 i got a perm about 6 months ago while i had it i cut it from about 6 inch to about 1 inch and spiked it now my hair is 6 inchs again i always had curley hair but not the type that perms give you alot looser more fine type. Well i was thinking about getting a perm again, my mom says perms are bad for your hair and make you go bald is this true? Yes i loose the amount normal people lose hair atleat 10 to 26 a day around there if i play with it, so i dont stress?

Will a perm damage my hair and make me go bald or am i OK

I wouldn't perm too much. Some women do go bald from it. Most women don't but some do.
Unless you want to permanently wear the bald look, lay off the perms.

What do you being a man have to do with your hair? Your hair is the same as anyone else's hair and if you are putting a chemical in it, the chemical don't decide to be nicer to you because you are a man. Reality check!

OMG! I am 13 and I recently (about a month ago) got a perm and Now, when I style my hair gobs of it come out and i find clogs of my hair in the sink!
I'm not going to go bald am I? My hair is really thick so it doesnt show at all!

It might be the perm, but it might also be your hormones going nuts (which it does often, I bet, if you're a teen). Also, during certain times of the year, hair falls out more--Late summer is one of these times. A normal amount of hair to lose daily is 50-100 hairs. If you're really worried, do a count.

Hope this helps and here's a ((hug)) for you

Perms are a baaad idea. Some women have lost hair from them. Oprah once went eggshell-bald after a perm. My mother's hair was fried during her first and last perm. If you want curls, I'd stick to rollers.
