Our stylists are trained in modern perm techniques that go far beyond the traditional “tight curl” look. We focus on creating customized, wearable texture that fits your hair type, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. All perms are performed with care to protect the health of your hair and scalp.
Your stylist will take time to assess your hair texture, density, and overall condition, ensuring that a perm is the right fit for your goals and that the final look is both beautiful and healthy.
Using your selected perm solution, we’ll apply the product with care and precision to create consistent, natural-looking curl or wave patterns tailored to your hair type and style preferences.
Once your new texture is set, we apply a neutralizer to lock in the curl and follow with a deep-conditioning treatment to nourish and strengthen your hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and supported.
After processing, your stylist will cut or shape your hair to enhance your new texture, then style it to show off the body and movement of your fresh perm.
Before you leave, we’ll recommend Aveda haircare products and styling tips to help you maintain your new look with confidence, ensuring your curls stay defined and healthy between visits.
We offer three types of customized perm services: Partial Perms, Full Perms, and Designer Perms. Partial perms are great for adding volume or curl to specific areas, full perms offer all-over texture and movement, and designer perms are fully customized for unique curl patterns or creative looks. Each service is tailored to your hair type and styling goals.
Yes, we require an in-person consultation before your first perm appointment. This allows us to assess your hair’s condition, texture, and chemical history, and to ensure a perm is the right fit for your goals. We’ll also discuss desired results, pricing, timing, and provide you with prep tips for the best outcome.
Perm results typically last 2 to 6 months, depending on your hair type, length, home care routine, and how tight or loose your curl pattern is. As your hair grows out, the curl will gradually relax at the roots, and you may choose to return for touch-ups or a new style depending on your desired maintenance schedule.
In many cases, yes—but it depends on the condition and strength of your hair. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate whether your hair can safely handle the perm process, especially if it has been lightened, bleached, or chemically treated. We’ll always prioritize the health of your hair and may recommend treatments before or after your perm to support integrity and shine.
After your perm, it’s important to avoid washing or heat styling your hair for the first 48 hours to allow the curl pattern to fully set. Use sulfate-free shampoos, moisturizing conditioners, and curl-supporting products to enhance and maintain definition. Your stylist will provide specific aftercare instructions and product recommendations to help your perm last longer and look its best.
