All You Need To Know About Perms
Before we touch on different types of perms, it is important that we know what perms are and it does to your hair during the process. Perming is a process that breaks and rebuilds your hair with disulfide bonds to form the desired waves in your hair. There are mainly two ways to do so: through cold perms and hot perms. Cold perming involves using an alkaline perm solution typically containing ammonium thioglycolate. This solution will break the disulfide bonds while your hair is being wound up around a perm rod.
