The perm is back in business and more vital than ever. It is not just for those with straight hair anymore; it’s the go-to method for adding volume, waves, or curls to all hair types.
Yet the ‘one-size-fits-all’ perm philosophy can be frustrating. Many people end up with ruined hair or curls that aren’t the right fit for their hair type or lifestyle. All of this could be solved with a custom-tailored perm. Customizing perms for different hair types and lifestyles can lead to optimal results: beautiful curls that are easy to manage.
At Kosa Salon SF, we provide various hair care services and a case-by-case consultation to educate our clients better and design a custom perm for their hair needs. Our focus on personalized service and attention to detail sets us apart from other places, allowing us to deliver a perm custom-made to each specific guest’s hair type and lifestyle.
Common Challenges with Standard Perms
As for standard perms, fine hair tends to get limp and damaged, while thick hair can become bulky and more difficult to manage. Colored hair risks follicular destruction and color fade, while natural hair risks no longer being natural and being straighter than straight.
Time-intensive blowouts demand attention for those with active lifestyles, while busy schedules suffer from frequent salon visits, costly styling mishaps, and quick-to-fade color. This is why we emphasize a 100 percent personalized approach to hair care. It ensures your hair is perfectly styled and fits seamlessly into your lifestyle, making maintenance effortless and stress-free.
The Importance of Personalized Consultations
- Initial Assessment: Our consultative, customizable perm process starts with an assessment. From on-site initial consultations, the client is educated on their hair type (straight, curly, wavy, etc), condition, and lifestyle.
- Customized Plan Development: This thorough assessment allows us to tailor the precise permanent plan you desire, waiting to be written.
- Client Involvement: We make you part of the process, ensuring that things are explained in a way that allows you to make decisions confident in our shared vision. The perm you end up with is the one you deserve.
Customized Perms for Different Hair Types
Fine Hair
Fine hair has its issues, including fragility and flatness. We can provide perming solutions that transform fine hair into full, textured hair using mild permanent-wave solutions that tap volume without damaging it.
Thick Hair
Thick hair presents its challenges, often with bulkiness and clumpyness. With thick hair, the biggest challenge is to ensure that curls deliver well-distributed ringlets under control. Also, annoying clumpyness will transform your hair into a toadstool.
Our style finder will help you choose a curly style that delivers a complete, bouncy effect without increased volume and bulk. Ringlets will create a pleasant, healthy, chaotic look that will bring you into harmony with your thick hair.
Another approach is to beat thick hair. The game can be changed by exploring your natural hair texture with professional styling methods. Your thick hair will take a back seat while the bounce, movement, and beauty will take over. This will help you feel fabulous with your bouncy new style that is easy to maintain.
Colored Hair
Colored hair needs special care to ensure it does not compromise its integrity to maintain its color or damage it during a treatment such as perming. At Kosa Salon SF, we care for colored hair and use a protective treatment before perming. We offer a gentle perming process to ensure that when your hair turns into curls, it remains healthy and pigmented, and your hair color remains intact.
Our curly hair specialist will use a customized perm process for colored hair to achieve the best of both worlds: beautiful curly hair with vibrant color.
Natural Hair
Natural hair has challenges – from moisture and heat retention to damage from tension on coily, curly, and textured tresses. At Kosa Salon SF, we help you achieve defined, natural-looking curls that seamlessly fit via our curl-enhancing style set.
