Do you think it’s possible to perm 1A hair into a 3A texture without causing damage?

You have the perfect hair please don’t destroy it on a perm making it look thicker than it is. You don’t want this look 😳

The picture you shared isn’t 3A

I think your hair is perfect the way it is

There are some hair salons around here that do that and it’s becoming really popular. But I’d be careful… sometimes it can leave your hair more fragile and easy to break.

aren't't we always looking for the opposite of what nature gave us? I mean, having straight hair and wanting waves, having curly hair and wanting it straight...

[Ironco]

No...🤷‍♂️ But I'm a straight male, how would I know?

[AI Opinion]

Perming 1A hair to achieve a 3A texture can be quite challenging. While it's possible, there's always a risk of damage since perming involves strong chemicals that change the hair's structure. To minimize damage, it's crucial to seek a skilled professional and use high-quality products specifically formulated for such transformations. Proper aftercare is essential to maintain hair health, ensuring hydration and nourishment.

I know a girl who did a perm years ago and although her hair looked really good immediately after the perm, her hair started looking damaged and dry after a few months.

completely without probably not... but you could go really soft on it and couse almost no dmg

What is 1A and 3A hair?

[itsannalee]

1A is like my hair, really straight, so soft. And there are no waves at all, the stand usually fine stands. 3A loose big curl, with S shaped curl or spiral curls. Hair stands usually medium to fine.
