I got my hair permed last Saturday at the Korean salon in downtown where I usually get my hair done. The week before, I decided that I needed a haircut, and I thought, why not get it curled since I've never done it? It came out really nice and was a unanimous hit with my family and co-workers. I did have to go out and get some hair care stuff and put mouse on my hair every morning, otherwise it gets a frizzy and poofs up like crazy.
I also ran into some curly-hair issues that naturally curly-haired people probably deal with, which I have never even thought about. I cannot brush my hair once it starts drying after I wash it, otherwise it becomes a flying mess (imagine each hair curling by itself and not aligned with any other hair). I tried it once before washing my hair, and that's what it looked like.
I'll post pictures some time when I get a chance to take them.
