Long hair with bodily waves or curls is back, thanks to the wonderful trend of perms. Perms have grown wonderfully fast over the past 5-10 years, but they can also cause damage if your hair is not built to face the whole perming process. So, if you are thinking of perming your hair, consider these red flags.
1. Highlighted hair
If you hair is highlighted, think twice before perming it. Perming over-bleached hair will cause some damage to the hair cuticles, and make your hair ends in frizz. Plus, you have to touch-up your highlight regularly, causing more damage.
2. Dry hair

3. Short layers
