Perm Hairstyles

Modern permanent waves don’t pose the same dangers as their 1980s predecessors; modern styles should best complement your natural hair texture and length to ensure maximum benefit. When choosing your style, always select something which accentuates these features.

Danish model Frederikke Sofie’s Loose Curls

Danish model Frederikke Sofie is famed for her signature look of gorgeous loose curls. To emulate this look, try giving yourself a cold stacked perm using small curling rods – you might get similar results.

Lob Haircut

The lob is an iconic, sophisticated style ideal for women with petite frames, offering versatility when worn. Choose between a blunt cut or straight bob with layers to achieve a polished appearance; or go for center-parted lobs featuring curtain bangs or see-through Korean fringe for an ultra-glam finish. Those with thin hair may benefit from trying out Kerry Washington’s look of using partial thin highlights to give the impression of density in their locks.

Textured Lob for Dimension

A textured lob is an exciting and contemporary way to add dimension and dimension to long hairstyles. By curling with an iron, loose beach waves can instantly elevate your style; or add pastel-colored streaks for an effortless and youthful appeal.

Multi-Textured Perm

Traditional perms give your head of curls, but what if you prefer something more natural-looking? A multi-textured perm will produce waves and curls of various sizes to match the natural hair texture of your scalp. Consider this style as a low-commitment version of a pin curl perm – only this treatment uses few curling rods instead of hundreds of tiny curlers to create soft volume with minimal commitment.

Adding Coils to Short Shag Bobs

Short shag bobs can quickly become unruly without proper styling, but with a textured perm, beautiful, loose coils can be added for a full and luxurious finish. Just be sure to use a diffuser attachment when blow-drying so your strands won’t look stiff!

Volumizing Perm for Thin or Limp hair

If your thickening products and root lifters have failed, but your strands remain thin or limp, modern perms may be your answer. Modern perms can make strands appear fuller without leaving behind frizzies from an at-home permanent wave system. A neck-length bob with tightly defined spirals is an elegant perm hairstyle for women with thin strands. The curls add natural movement to the strands while emphasizing facial features.

Pin Curl Perm for Natural-Looking Waves

Pin curl perms are timeless styles that create natural-looking waves in the hair, using narrow rods for perming and then brushing out to achieve the wavy look. Popular among people with thin locks as it gives plenty of volume without appearing like rollerballs; add shine serum for even more dimension! This style is ideal for those seeking a soft, flowing coif. This type of perm creates large ringlets which become more defined upon drying; additionally, bangs may also be curled to add an eclectic vibe.

Creating Texture and Volume with Stack Perm

The Stack Perm is an ideal style for creating loose, natural-looking coils in their hair. This method uses different-sized rods in both sections so that all curls don’t come out the same size, creating more natural-looking texture and volume. This technique creates a stunning, shaggy style with lots of wavy and curly sections that fall over your face for a seductive peek-a-boo effect. This style can add volume and body to shorter locks.

Soft and Flowing Curls with Modern Techniques

Modern perming techniques use gentler chemicals than those commonly seen during the 1970s and ’80s, producing soft, flowing curls with soft edges.
