Perming Ways

Although there are many styles to perm, still there are two major techniques used to perm hair that everyone considering a desired perm should be known before.

Hot Perms

Hot perms use a formula with a pH between 4.5 (about as acidic as a strong) — to 7.0, which is the pH of pure water.  This acid breaks the disulfide bonds in hair to produce the curl.  As part of the process, heat is applied to the hair. One may hear hot perms called acid perms, because of the digital display on the machines used in such technique.

Hot perms are best for thin or damaged hair, such as hair that has been color-treated. It is also best for busy people because hot perms tend to be lower-maintenance.  It is diverse and thus, can be used to create different styles.

Cold Perms

The chemical used in cold perms is alkaline, with a pH between 8.2 and 9.6, or around the pH of baking soda.  Your parlor may also recognize it as cold perm.  In such a perm, the chemical breaks the bonds within the hair to make it curl.  Then, a neutralizer is applied to bring the pH back to normal.  This fixes the hair in its new, curled shape!

Since this can be aggravate right to the root, lifting the hair thoroughly and create volume.

A cold perm is a more traditional perm and is good for people who want tighter, stronger, more defined curls.
