Perm Very Fine Hair
by Melissa Lee
(UK)
I have very fine lifeless hair. It has become worse as I have aged. I would like it permed. I have have asked my stylist but he says my hair is too weak to withstand a perm and the perm would just make it a straight friz. I have it tinted. Is he right? If not can you recommend a perm that would suit my hair?

Without being able to examine your hair myself, this is a very hard question to answer. But think about this.
Your stylist has recommended that you not perm your hair. Perming your hair is a service. Hairdressers make money by providing services.
This to me implies that you have a very good hairdresser who isn't thinking about the money he/she can make from providing you a service. They are actually telling you not to get the service, which is pretty top notch! There must be a good reason for this advice, like ruining your hair!
Don't buck the advice. Instead of perming your hair, try various
volumizing products that add texture to your hair and be thankful you have a hairdresser who actually cares about your hair.
