Get answers to common questions about Medium to Long Hair Perm.
We evaluate hair health, porosity, previous chemical services and texture during consultation. Most hair types can be permed with appropriate technique and conditioning. If hair is compromised, we recommend rebuilding treatments or alternative styling until safe to perm.
Appointments vary by thickness, length and desired curl pattern. Allow two to three hours on average for consultation, application, processing and styling; longer appointments may be necessary for very long or thick hair or complex curl patterns.
Avoid washing for 48 hours, use sulfate-free cleansers and nourishing conditioners, and apply leave-in treatments to preserve curl integrity. Minimize heat styling, detangle gently, and schedule regular trims and deep-conditioning masks to maintain health and shape.
Yes, color-treated hair can usually be permed with a strand test and careful timing. We assess previous color services and may recommend bond-rebuilding treatments, waiting periods, or adjusted formulas to protect hair while achieving desired curl results.
Curls commonly last eight to sixteen weeks depending on growth, hair porosity and maintenance. Natural relaxation occurs over time; periodic touch-ups, partial perms or professional styling can refresh shape and maintain a consistent, healthy curl pattern.
Perming temporarily restructures hair bonds rather than causing permanent removal. Potential damage depends on condition and technique; at Olivine we use gentle formulations, protective additives and post-treatment repairs to minimize harm and restore strength with proper aftercare.
