I’ve had a perm for about 3 years now and this was SO helpful oh my gosh. I’m about to go get another one this month and I’ll definitely be using all of these tips this time!
I’m so glad this was helpful!!! Have a wonderful holiday season 🥰
Holly Ann what kind of a perm are you getting?
How long does a perm last?
Thank you so much! You have explained everything! I get my first perm next week and your video has saved me probably a lot of frizz and messy styling 🥰
Wow!!! Love the longer hair with tighter curls! You definitely look your best at your curliest!
Thank you!!!
You look so perfect with beautiful curly hair! I hope you keep it like this forever because nothing could make you look better than this!
I’ve been getting my hair permed on and off since 2010 i’d say the last 4 years I’ve really learned how to maintain and upkeep it I find following the CGM has been the absolute best on making a perm last long at least for me I can get close to a year. The Shea moisture Jamaican black castor oil line is really good for chemically treated hair and that Cantu curl activator cream is my go to also!
Thank you for making such a well researched, interesting, informative and enjoyable video. This is your best look yet - the curl pattern, distribution and curl size are perfect for your hair length, and the resulting texture works perfectly with your natural blond color! SO much nicer on you than straight hair, and longer length works much better than short! You look absolutely gorgeous!!!
Aw thank you so much! This comment made my day :)
@@KianaJens You are welcome! The video was pretty darn comprehensive! The only part that could maybe be expanded upon is the perm process itself - maybe some footage of the piggyback technique being wound, with perhaps time lapse of the rods going in etc. You could also film how and when the different solutions are applied, as well as time lapse of the rods being removed etc. Just a few thoughts and suggestions for when you get your next perm done in 8 months time! Thanks again for a great video! A++++++++++ 😀
@@KianaJens Hi, this vid just appeared on the suggested vids, so I thought I'd watch it again! I hope you are doing well, as it seems a while since I last saw one of your vids. How is your perm doing now? It's a good few months since you got it - are you due a new one soon? Did you look into the idea of some hi-lites any further by the way? You were toying with the idea last time we spoke if memory serves me. For what it's worth, I think they would be a nice addition to your curls that would look really good if you decide to go down that line! Hope you make some new vids soon - they're always so informative and interesting!
Aw you’re so sweet! With my hair- I actually canceled my next perm apt and am planning on letting my hair grow out super long! I also have been playing around with semi permanent color. It all seems super different and crazy but I just want to play at this point and see what I arrive at! As far as filming- I hope to film soon now that I am officially graduated. I was getting really burnt out the last few months and just needed to minimize my responsibilities (UA-cam and a few other things). But now that I have less on my plate I’ll be making videos. I’m aiming to start back up again in September!
@@KianaJens Glad to hear you have graduated and are doing ok! The different colors sound fun, and it will be interesting to see in your upcoming vids. Are you planning to perm your hair again once it has grown super long? I REALLY hope you do, because curly hair suits you SO much better than straight - and NOTHING is cuter than super-long permed hair all the way down your back! PLEASE perm again it when it gets to that length, as it would be a TRAGEDY if you go back to straight hair!
Miss gurlll, I have the exact same hair type as you and you look amazing!! Best perm I have seen so far, it looks so natural
Thank you so much!!
This is exactly the video I was looking for, thank you! Its decided.... I'm getting a perm eeeek 🎉
i wasnt sure how different your hair would look doing it the longer way vs. the quick easy way, but it is quite significantly different and it does look really good... i love your long hair, beautiful curls...
Thank you so much!!
Your curls are the exact level of tightness needed for the length of your hair for the overall style to compliment your facial features perfectly! Put simply, you look amazing! Just a thought: have you ever considered doing a small number of cap highlights on top of your curls just to lift parts of your hair in color ever so slightly? This would further accentuate your curls and brighten your overall look. As your natural color is light it would require minimal lifting, and should do negligible damage. Would look great on you!
Thank you so much! And I have considered highlights but I’ve just never actually gone to get them. I’ll have to look into that!
@@KianaJens When are you planning your next perm? You could ask your stylist to put some highlights in a couple of weeks before getting it. Cap highlights work really well with curls as the highlighted strands of hair are much finer and less chunky than with foils, and blends better with the remaining unhighlighted hair to give color contrast that boosts curl definition!
Not sure on the timing of my next perm but I’ll definitely ask about the highlights. Thank you!!
@@KianaJens You are welcome! I would definitely time the highlights and perm to be close together in order to get maximum effect of the two together! It would make a great video as well!
@@KianaJens Agree! Platinum or white blonde highlights would look gorgeous mixed in with your curls! Do it with your next perm!!!
I'm so thankful that my mom went to cosmetology school and she perms my hair she orders the perm solution of a Amazon I just permed my hair yesterday and my hair's a bit longer than it was the last few times and we used tighter curl rods and my hair is extremely curly and I'm kind of freaking out because I think I might look like a poodle
I actually been searching this spasific vedio this is the perfectly discribed hw to take care our permed hair tnk u
Hi, this looks phenomenal on you! When are you having your next perm done, and can you post an update video once you've got it repermed? I love your vids - especially the perm ones!
Thank you!! I got a coaching job recently and I’ve been wearing my hair in a bun as long pony tails can get pulled by equipment.. especially foam rollers! Ugh.. So as of right now I won’t be re perming just because I am constantly wearing my hair up. Maybe in the future tho!
@@KianaJens Aww no!!!! You looked so good with your hair permed!
love the curls , so cute
I love your perm!! I wish I could go to your stylist :(
Thank you so much!
You just look so good with a perm!!! Great decision on getting it! Straight hair is for boring dull women with no flair!
Hey Kiana, I haven't seen your video for awhile. Wow, your hair looks beautiful! I agree with your advice, I still get perms for myself as a guy, but my hair is longer and thick so I find some valuable information. I paid $118 for my perm back in October. Considering for the price it was reasonable. Oh yeah, it be at least $200 and some tips. I think as for myself for long hair perms it nice to have something different then short hair? I guess longer the hair grows the more rods. Not sure if the perm will last longer? Me either I'm not a hairdresser Kiana. Thanks for video.
Hi! Very glad to find this video. Do you recommend tying your permed hair? My work requires my long to be tied but I'm a bit worried that will disturb the curls and I'll end up with straight hair again after getting it permed 😅
I was always told to never use a brush on a perm?
Thanks for doing this vid, very helpful! Love have it turned out! Would love to see a vid where you took us to the salon with you and filmed getting a perm from beginning to end! Would you consider doing this next time? Much love and best wishes!
I’ll definitely consider that next time. Thank you!!
@@KianaJens Wud love to see this! Really hope you make this vid next time!
but what is your natural hair is it like wavey or like rlly straight cuz im afraid that if i will perm my hair it will go away in like a month cuz i got rll straight hair idk how cuz my mom and dad and lil sister has curly lmaoo srr for bad english
How often for your perm your hair? Do you have any color or highlights in your hair?
Your hair is very pretty
Long tight curls look wonderful on you! How's the perm settled in 2-3 months after getting it? Is there any possibility of a quick update video?
Thank you! My hair looks almost identical to how it looks in this video 😊 I got a trim a few weeks ago because my ends were splitting so bad. I’m currently wrapping up my semester and then I’m going to be taking my Optometry Acceptance Exam mid January. After that I’ll start filming videos 😊
You must be due another perm soon, will you be making another video when you get it redone?
I am due for a perm but I just got a job as a personal trainer where I wear my hair up everyday. So I’m planning on just letting it grow and maybe perming at a later date!
@@KianaJens Your curls in this video are so pretty that you simply MUSTN'T let it end up becoming straight! Well done on your job by the way, but please don't let it compromise your outstanding curly locks!
So helpful! Thank you so much. Just got my perm 4 days go and absolutely clueless about how and what products to use. For far there is leave in conditioner, mouse, curl cream. Is there a proper sequence to layer these products?
Yay! I hope you love it! What I do is leave in conditioner in the shower, then curl cream after I get out, then I use mouse or gel as the last layer! You might find that using all these are too heavy. In that case pick either the cream or the conditioner but then always use mouse/gel. Hope that helps!
@@KianaJens awww thank you so much for taking your time to reply. ❤️ Yeah my hair is definitely fine and thin. Will definitely take in your tips
If your hair is very thin I would say you can even dilute the products in your hand with water and that will help with any weigh down!
A word of advice: talk about fast hair growth fortified shampoo to double hair growth.
Hello Kiana, your video is very informative… I love love love your hair. I just got a perm, I have very thin hair. What do you suggest for thin here product wise. I really value your opinion, let me know if you can. Really appreciate it.❤
I would recommend using a mouse rather than a gel. And I would find a light curl cream. There’s a 3-1 conditioner/ leave in from Not Your Mothers that I think would be perfect!
Which brand of perm solution and neutralizer did your stylist use? How many bottles of each was needed for your hair? Also how was this applied - was it applied direct from the bottle, or soaked in using a sponge? Was it applied before or after wrapping the rods, and what order were the rods/solution applied? Would be brilliant if you made a video which captured all this when getting a future perm. Great vid by the way!
Thank you! I will reach out to my stylist to get a precise answer for you and I will get back to you soon.
@@KianaJens Thank you!
This is my stylists response. Hope this helps! “Iso, three boxes, typically Applied through the bottle. Sometimes with longer haired spirals/piggyback perms can be thoroughly saturated with a spray bottle.
It’s applied after the hair is wrapped.
Kiana asked if she could tape the whole thing but the stylist Felt that it is important for an individual to have something like this done by a professional. For that reason she chose to just have bits and pieces of the process shown on the UA-cam video. Thank you for understanding. 😉”
@@KianaJens Thank you!
Perm Formulas: ALKALINE ( traditional ) gives a FIRM wave or curl. Low pH ALKALINE gives a MEDIUM wave or curl or for Easy To Wave / Color-Treated Hair. NEUTRAL pH ( not actually Neutral pH - 6.5 to 8.5 ) gives a SOFT wave or for sensitized / Healthy BLEACHED or Heavily Highlighted Hair ( 50% or More ) ACID PERM ( all hair types ) for Curls, Waves or Body. EXOTHERMIC PERM ( Self Heating ) for FIRM, SPRINGY CURLS or LASTING BODY ( All Hair Types )
Different chemicals are also used: Ammonium Thioglycolate (Traditional Cold Wave ) Glyceryl Thioglycolate ( EXOTHERMIC ) Ammonium or Sodium or Potassium Bisulfate ( Low Odor / No Odor Soft Perm ) Cysteamine Hydrochloride ( Damage - Free Perm ) some of these are better for color-treated, bleached, sensitized or Highlighted hair. Some are better for resistant hair or for a softer curl or just ‘Body’. Some are better if you want a perm that washes out after a set period of time. There are many options.
Thank you for this! It means I have to look for a perm solution with Ammonium/ Potassium/ or Sodium Bisulfate as an active ingredient because of the state of my hair
Love your curls, there were a lot of rods used but lovely curls!
Thank you!!
@@KianaJens will you get a new perm later?
I will probably get my next perm next summer
@@KianaJens You could do summer style makeover video! You could do new perm, mani, pedi, clothes etc. You would suit care free style of long summer dresses with flip-flops or toe-post sandals! Long curly hair fits this style ideally!
Great idea! I’ll keep that in mind :) thank you!
Do you do anything to your hair when you go to sleep other than the satin pillow case? Like put it up, braid it or do you just leave it down?
I just leave it down and use a satin pillow case!
Hi, love your hair - very beautiful! Did your stylist use acid, alkaline or exothermic perm? Was this normal or firm hold? Thanks.
Hello! My stylist uses alkaline perms on my hair and I believe this perm was normal hold.
Your perm and styling looks beautiful but sadly I am very sensitive to most products and my scalp gets so itchy. Haven't been able to find products with low or no sensitive ingredients. I use an anti frizz and it seems ok but the curl stuff drives my scalp insane.
Shea moisture seems to be a pretty natural brand. They even have products specifically for sensitive skin!
Wow it's hard to find things on"permed" hair and not just "curly" hair. I think it must be totally different in a way the products you use and the way it turns out and how often you wash it etc...I think your hair looks natural but I bet you don't dye it too!
I just started a process at my local hair salon to have an end plan to get my hair permed... to be told it won't be possible... I used spat ombre hair dye in my hair back in November and haven't done anything with it since, because they dyes (4 different colors) are still still in my hair... after my hair was washed and cut... they noticed my hair had a lot of damage (dried out and looked very unhealthy)... so I went back so they could do a treatment in my hair (never removing the hair dye I have still)... I was suppose to go back 2 more times next would be the perm and then a dye back to my natural hair color...she told me since I used splat I hair wouldn't be able to be permed... and for her to dye it, she's going to have to use a special technique to get the brown and light brown look I'm looking for. What or is there anything I can do to get the perm I want for my hair? She strained test my hair today before washing and treating it. The dye did come out, but my hair was brittle and just felt apart. PLEASE, I NEED SOME ADVICE!!!
Definitely do not perm your hair if it is damaged. If your hair is damaged it’s damaged and there’s not much you can do. If you perm it now it will fall out and you will have a bigger mess. Unfortunately, you will likely have to grow it out and wait to perm it. I’m sorry!!!
@Kiana Jens does this mean with any regular dyes the salon might do, to correct my current hair color?
Color correcting is a big process, to my understanding. That will potentially cause more damage. Depending on how deep the color is they may have to take any color from the hair and replace it with a new color. This is deep in the hair shaft and causes loads of damage. My stylist told me it’s a really bad idea to perm that kind of hair as it also causes major damage. Too much damage to the hair will cause hair loss but also the perm will not turn out. It could be more stringy and frizzy rather than curly
Your curls look amazing. The perm on your shorter hair looked really cute, but this style is to die for.
My hair is almost as long as yours and I am seriously thinking about getting a perm like yours. However, the process sounds like torture. Is it hours of discomfort, os is it just painful when they are rinsing and drying the perm rods?
Thank you!! I have a super sensitive scalp and always have so for me personally it’s a few hours of pain. However, some people have absolutely no issue with it. For me it takes so long because my hair is wildly thick and has a lot of length. But definitely the washing part is the most painful for me because the rods are being pulled and moved on my already inflamed scalp!
@@KianaJens Thank you. It sounds like it is worth a bit of discomfort for those beautiful curls. You obviously keep on going back for more.
BTW good luck with your comps.
Yes I definitely think it’s worth it! And thank you so much!!
Pretty curls 👧
Thank you!!
Love your perm! How long does it last for you?
Thank you! It lasts about 8 months.
Does your hair seem more damaged since getting it permed? Does it still feel healthy?
It does still feel healthy but I condition it a lot! When I first get it permed it is a little dry
@@KianaJens how many times has it been permed so far? (Sorry I just got a perm the other day and I’m curious as to how my hairs guna turn out after repeatedly getting perms)
I’ve only gotten 2 perms. I permed it the second time a year after the first!
Helloooo. Is it okay to curl perm a 1-year old keratin-rebonded hair?
That’s definitely a loaded question! It really depends on the health and the state of your hair. If your hair is unhealthy then a perm likely won’t go well. If your hair is healthy then perm or coloring your hair should be fine. Before making a perm appointment, I would make sure your stylist knows what your hair has been though and ask them what they personally suggest!
@@KianaJens Thank you so much for the urgent response, I will check with the stylist for sure. My hair though is naturally curly, thick in volume and think with each strand and I actually do straighten my hair with a flat iron twice a week from the time it was rebonded just to maintain it straight.
Yes definitely check! The only problem I can foresee is because your hair was fully re bonded as straight, it might not fully curl or hold the perm as long. But the stylist will be able to tell you what to expect based on your circumstances!
@@KianaJens Thanks for these advices, much appreciated from Dubai, UAE 🇦🇪
1:40 you're incorrect ! The more disulphide bonds the curlier the hair !
Nooo you don’t brush your curls
I found it works best for me! Taking care of hair doesn’t have to be so strict.. It’s really just hair. Without brushing my hair with a special wet brush I will have matted hair that takes hours and hours to get out. It’s awful. If it works best for someone just roll with the punches 😊
GET LARGER ROLLERS YOUR HAIR IS TOO CURLY!
