                                                                                           by GREG COUZENS



                                               Ladies and gents, it’s official - the perm is back!


                                               Not as we know it... Dismiss the 70s frizz, or the 80s crunchy
                                               curls, today’s new and improved version is very different from
                                               the past. Today’s perm or ‘new wave’ is much softer and kinder
                                               to the hair.

                                               Condition is paramount and to achieve the best result we only
                                               apply the ‘new wave’ to hair that is in perfect condition.


                                               A-list celebrities are rocking this new look, including Emma
                                               Stone, Jaime King and Mica Argañaraz.


                                               Even men are taking the plunge with lots of inspiration from
                                               ‘Game of Thrones’ with the Jon Snow effect.

                                               Georgia Couzens, a senior technician who created Joanne’s
                                               look, said: “It all started when beach hair suddenly became the
                                               look; clients started asking for more texture and movement. For
                                               example, Joanne has a small amount of movement and for years
                                               she has straightened her hair. This involves using straightening
                                               irons every day and consequently, the condition of her hair
                                               suffered.

                                               “Joanne can now just wash and leave her hair and she absolutely
                                               loves it.”

                                               Before considering having a ‘new wave’, do make sure that
                                               your hair is in the best condition: stop using harsh products
                                               and straightening irons for at least six months prior to the
                                               ‘new wave’. Always use a quality conditioner and comb through
                                               to keep the cuticles smooth, and maintain regular haircuts to
                                               prevent the ends from splitting.
 PERM                                          Each ‘new wave’ is customised to each individual man or woman:


                                               it is all about how you place the rods and the size we use, making
                                               it uniquely personal - on longer hair it should last up to twelve
                                               months, shorter hair is approximately three months.

                                               Are you brave enough to take on this new trend?
