Very short hair + classic perm, what percentages are we giving on the outcome of my ending up with a Keegan? Shall we run a book?

I've booked the appointment. It's not that bad a look is it? In the grand scheme of things?

Bit late to this thread , but just to say it looks great ! Do you know what size rollers they used ? Were they the old fashioned ones with pingy rubber bands ?

I always look for a hairdresser that does slightly older clientele because generally they do more perms and sets so are shit hot at putting rollers in.

No offence to any people who work in banging hip on trend salons

It looks great!

Your hair is much longer than it looked on the 'before' photo you posted

And yes pingy rubber bands, and plastic hat

I agree with Ridingthegravytrain

I'm so tempted , I loved my 1980's perm and really fed up with my poker straight locks at the moment .

Bloody hell

I have to confess I've been watching this thread through my fingers

But wow! That is gorgeous!

It looks lovely and bouncy! Did you walk out like you'd just stepped out of salon?

Wow it looks great!

Love it!

Your hair looks ace! I've been thinking of having a perm (got very fine, jaw-length hair which I curl with straighteners every fucking morning) and now I'm determined - you've reassured me that it might look good!

Oh my god that looks absolutely amazing OP

It's absolutely gorgeous.

That is lovely, it looks very natural.

Wow you look gorgeous!
I'm so desperate for perms to come back in. I forever wanted one back in the 90's but my mum didn't allow me. Ah I'm lusting after one now

My trendy 'bang on trend' minor celeb hairdresser won't let me have a perm and thinks I'm nuts for even thinking about it.
I want beachy waves.

HoneyDragon you are beautiful. I had no idea. I think we need profile pics on here. It's weird talking to usernames.

Gorgeous!

Oh gawd, no, no profile pictures!
Nobody would ever speak to me again...

don't be daft PD. But yeah probably best to stay anon.

It looks amazing. So jealous. I'm an 80s girl and loved my many perms. Tried one in late 90s but my hair was too short. I looked like Maggie Thatcher crossed with a Beefeater.

Yours looks so good.

I really thought this was a bad idea when I first saw the thread but I like it!

Please can you do another pic when you've had it a few days and washed it and styled yourself etc?

I'd love a perm, I have annoying half curly but not quite fully curly hair and I want either proper curls or proper straight, not this willy nilly shite.

HoneyDragon you look fabulous, just remember though that if this was ever posted on any other social media it might make you more easily traceable. Not saying you need to worry, but I've seen a pic of your lovely perm today on another site and just wanted to give you a heads-up.

You look fabulous!

I'm like the end result. Very much.
