body perm Page 5

Ah, the body perm—because straight hair is just too mainstream. This chemical treatment uses a waving lotion to add volume and loose curls, giving your hair that enviable bounce without the need for daily curling irons. Expect results to last around 3 to 6 months, depending on your hair type and care routine. Be warned: the chemicals can be harsh, leading to dryness or frizz if you don't maintain it properly. Regular deep conditioning is your new best friend. For a salon service in Australia, prices typically range from $80 to $180, while at-home kits are cheaper but riskier.
