I had a spiral perm done 6 weeks ago and wondered if it's safe to use on it? Thanks

In general, it would be safe to use haircolor after 6 weeks BUT this really depends on the condition of your hair. It would be best to consult your hairdresser about a look requiring multiple processes since you can damage your hair to the point of having to cut it all off if you make the wrong move.

It should be anything after 10 day as long as the hair is not over processed from the perm also think the hair is porous it may take the color darker.

The perm is mild but with all perms you should put in a conditioner at the end before you put in any color. If you have thick wavy curly hair, this perm will calm your hair down with straightening it out but leave you with plenty of volume. Just remember when your hair is wet, it will look flat. But as it dries, it will puff up. I use medium orange rods, but I already have naturally curly wavy hair. So judge by that. Good Luck!

I had to trim the ends as they were a little frayed. After spraying with a heat protector I curled them with no problem. It only took a few seconds for each one, I wouldn't leave them curling for too long as the heat over time will damage them, just as with your own hair.

actually Im not sure if it is safe to use it on chemically processed hair, but as a pharmacist I advice you to wait for at least 6 months to apply any kind of perminant treatments to avoid more damage of your hair, knowing that all kinds of straightners are causing hair fall with different gedrees.

Mine became very thick and goopy within a month, but I use it almost daily. I just ordered the Seche Restore to fix that problem. It is totally worth the slight headache and luckily, the manufacturer has a solution.

I don't have a perm (Although I highly doubt this will loosen your perm), but I do have very fine and oily hair (must be washed every day) and I do not have a problem with this adding any grease to it. I don't condition my scalp though, just pretty much the back of neck down. It is amazing and makes my hair silky soft! You can't beat the price, you should give it a try!

You should leave the perm on your hair according to the directions. If you don't have the directions, which i'm assuming is the reason for your question, you don't want to leave the perm in your hair any longer than 20 minutes according to your hair type. Please make sure you have not washed or scratched your hair or scalp as this does not help the process and can cause abrasions or scars in the scalp. If you have washed your hair, I would wait at least a day or two for best results. If you have sensitive skin you may want to leave the perm in a shorter period of time. 15 or 20 minutes is pretty good. You also want to make sure that you start around the edges of your hair line first and work your way through the rest of your hair, making sure to part your hair in sections. 4 sections is best, it will help you to go through your hair quickly. Don't use the product directly in your scalp at first. Apply the product to the edges of all your hair first and then, if your scalp is not burning apply the rest of the product to the scalp as you go back through your hair to apply the rest of the product. Make sure to use gloves for skin protection and vaseline if you have it or the clear jelly that sometimes comes with the product. Apply the clear jelly or vaseline around the entire edges of your hairline. Example: if you have vaseline it will work fine, just take a medium helping and spread it on your face at the hairline and around the ears incase product gets onto the skin. this will keep you from burning the skin with the product. I hope this helps and I hope it wasn't too much information. I enjoy helping if I can. Good luck with straightness.

Yes... I have been using this faithfully for a year and a half... my hairdresser asked me after I had been using it for 6 months, if I had been cutting some of my hair... I had new regrowth that was almost an inch long... has worked for me. Maybe all situations are not the same.. I had very thinning hair... it has filled in, my part is not wide like it was.

Unfortunately I used this on all natural hair. I believe it's safe but can't speak from experience.

Well after you use the product Results are permanent but its recommended to use for 6 months or longer even if u reach desired size but I have noticed a little less perkiness after not using for about 4 /5 months

It probably isn't the best thing for curled hair. Why not try Matrix Total Results Curl shampoo and conditioner. I used to use that when I had a perm and liked it.

I don't perm. I do color. My hair is naturally very fine and very curly. I like this product because it does not make my hair greasy.

I used it every time I washed my hair until it didn't need it anymore. After that about every 3rd washing unless I needed it before that. You'll be able to tell. I don't think it will hurt your hair. I use it after a perm. it made my hair look like it was naturally curly..lot's of compliments.

I realize this question is old, but yes, I use Method gel in mine and haven't had a problem yet (it's been 1 year).

I've used the perm in the last year and had a good perm from product. My hair is curl resistant. Good luck. Phyllis

I washed my hair just one day later with no problems. This has been the best perm I have ever had.
