How Do You Straighten Hair With A Perm?
Men and women with curly hair want one thing: Straight hair. Most use over-the-counter perms to achieve the desired result. But some people don’t know how to apply a perm, so they create scalp burns, partially straightened hair and eventual hair loss. Here are some ways to do it right. Buy an over-the-counter perm that relaxes the hair. The word “relaxer” should be on the box along with a photo of a woman with straight hair. Be sure to get one that fits your natural hair texture of fine, medium or coarse. You’ll need a timer, towel, fine-toothed comb and Vaseline. These will help you in the application process of your straightening perm. Line your hair and scalp with Vaseline, which will protect it from chemical burns that often happen during the application of a straightening perm. Apply a heavy coating of Vaseline to the more sensitive areas of your scalp. Part you hair into four equal sections. Part your hair straight down the middle from front to back. Then, part it from ear to ear
