BEAUTIFUL YOU How long will my perm last

By RENE VINCENT

IN MANY ways the very name, “permanent wave”, is misleading.

In fact, if it were really

. “permanent,” you would still

need to repeat the operation Simply because your hair is continuously growing — at a rate of one-half an inch a

month.

That means you grow six inches of new hair every year, so your “permanent” permanent would be cut off in any case.

Of course, permanent waves do not last for ever and after a period of a month they begin to “relax” and the curls becomes softer. In many ways, this is an advan- tage because you are not restricted to the style you had on the day of the perm.

’ When your perm is fully “relaxed”, you have a

“tighter” the wave or the curlier the result, the longer the perm usually lasts. On the other hand, softer, more “natural” perms sometimes last little more than two months.

The reason for the differ- ence between soft body waves and tight curly waves is found in the internal struc- ture of the hair and the way in which the perm solutions function.

For you, the importance should not be how long your perm lasts but what type of perm suits your needs best.

It is impossible to gener- alize the length of time a perm should last before it re- laxes. It depends on the type of lotion, perm rod and method used in the first place.
