Booked it and going for it. My hair looks shit poker straight so I'm going curly! Hoping to look fabulous and bouncy rather than Charlene from Neighbours but I'm very excited all the same!

Omg - super jealous face Envy

I think it's going to look even better after the initial 48hrs.

I've been having a perm for years, it's great, so easy to manage and looks lovely. My modern hairdresser knows what to do, however... Have just moved towns and need to find new hairdresser so v worried. Made him write down what lotion and rollers I have and as OH is at his hairdressers right now I've asked him to see if they do non old womeny perms (live in older demographic area now!)

oh it's goooooood!

HoneyDragon · 22/04/2017 09:21

Oooooooh that's lovely, I'm so jealous. You're gorgeous. Honestly after this initial faff you'll love it. Every day's a good hair day.

HoneyDragon · 22/04/2017 09:22

It will doctorboo. You're always a little fluffy at first, then it's much more defined.

SailAwayWithMeHoney · 22/04/2017 09:30

It's sooo good!!! It suits you 😁

ToffeeCaramel · 22/04/2017 09:47

You look lovely.

PaulDacresFeministConscience · 22/04/2017 09:47

Looks lovely and natural - loose rather than tight ringlets. It suits you!

Aria2015 · 22/04/2017 09:55

Looks lovely, you never know it wasn't natural!

TWOBANANAS · 22/04/2017 09:56

So natural! What type of perm is that? Does it have a particular name or is your hairdresser just a genius 🙂

AuntPol · 22/04/2017 10:27

It looks great, OP!

Ohb0llocks · 22/04/2017 11:24

It looks very natural. Im jealous.

That's a lovely pic Op.

I'm off to sit facing the wall to sulk about my poker straight, fine hair that looks crap
