Our stylists wrap your hair around rods, apply perm solution to alter the internal bonds, then neutralize to lock in the new shape — giving you texture, volume and movement that lasts for weeks. Perfect if you want to add life and bounce to shorter styles without daily styling. ## What happens during your perm appointment The service takes around **75 minutes** and follows a careful process to create your new curl pattern: - Your stylist sections your hair and wraps it around rods (the size determines how tight or loose your curls will be) - Perm solution is applied to break down the hair's bonds so it can hold the new shape - After processing, a neutralizer is applied to reset the bonds and lock in the curls - The result is softer, defined curls or waves with increased body and movement We offer **free 15-minute consultations** for new clients, so if you're not sure whether a perm will suit your hair or lifestyle, pop in for a chat with one of the team first. ## Who is a short hair perm right for? Short hair perms work beautifully for clients looking for **texture, lift at the roots, or defined curl** rather than dramatic length. They're ideal if you: - Want volume and body without heat styling every day - Have naturally flat or fine hair that needs a boost - Love the look of waves or curls but don't have the natural texture - Prefer a wash-and-go style with built-in movement That said, previously bleached, heavily coloured or damaged hair may need extra care or may not be suitable for stronger perming formulas. A quick consultation helps us assess your hair's condition and recommend the best approach. ## Aftercare: keeping your curls looking fresh Your perm needs a little TLC in the first few days to let the curl pattern fully set: - **Don't wash your hair for 48 hours** after the service — this gives the new shape time to lock in - Avoid tight ties, clips or anything that creases the hair during the first week - Skip swimming and heavy styling products that can distort the curl - Use a **sulfate-free shampoo** and condition regularly to keep hair hydrated - Weekly deep conditioning treatments help reduce frizz and keep curls bouncy - Air-dry or diffuse on low heat rather than rough towel-drying or brushing aggressively Perms are temporary — your curls will gradually loosen as your hair grows and as you wash and style. But with good aftercare, you'll get weeks of gorgeous texture and movement from your short hair perm. [Call to Book](tel:+441484722220) ## Frequently Asked Questions How much does a short hair perm cost at Park Row? A short hair perm starts from £49. The final price may vary depending on how much solution your hair needs, as each bottle used is charged separately. We'll confirm the cost during your consultation. How long does a short hair perm take? The appointment takes around 75 minutes. This includes sectioning, wrapping your hair around rods, applying the perm solution, processing time, and neutralizing to set the curl. Can I wash my hair straight after a perm? No — you should avoid washing your hair for the first 48 hours after a perm. This gives the new curl pattern time to fully set and helps your perm last longer. Will a perm damage my hair? Perms use chemicals to alter your hair's structure, so they do put some stress on the hair. However, if your hair is in good condition and you follow proper aftercare, damage can be minimal. Previously bleached or fragile hair may need extra caution. How long will my short hair perm last? Perms are temporary and gradually loosen over time as your hair grows and as you wash and style it. With good aftercare, you can expect several weeks to a few months of curl definition before it relaxes. What should I avoid after getting a perm? In the first week, avoid washing your hair too soon, using tight ties or clips, swimming, rough towel-drying, and heavy styling products. These can all distort or weaken your curl pattern. What kind of curls will I get with a short hair perm? The final look depends on the rod size and your hair's starting condition. Short hair perms usually create body, texture, lift at the roots, and defined curls or waves rather than long flowing curls. Can I get a perm if my hair is coloured or highlighted? It depends on your hair's condition. Colour-treated hair can be permed, but bleached or damaged hair may not tolerate the chemicals as well. Book a free consultation so we can assess your hair and recommend the best approach. Do I need a consultation before booking a perm? We offer free 15-minute consultations for new clients. If you're unsure whether a perm will suit your hair type, condition, or lifestyle, it's a great way to chat with one of our stylists and get expert advice before committing. How do I look after my perm at home? Use sulfate-free shampoo, condition regularly, and do a weekly deep conditioning treatment. Air-dry or diffuse on low heat, avoid rough brushing, and don't tie your hair tightly. This keeps curls hydrated, defined and frizz-free. price per bottle of perm used [Call to Book](tel:+441484722220) ## Available Team Members These team members perform this service - ![Smiling blonde woman in black high-collar jacket against pale gray background](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fblonde-woman-professional-headshot-48x48.jpg%3Fprefix%3Dtenants%252F6a0205f7606080d2b25cc1a2%26v%3D1779446089513&w=96&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) Lynzie Senior Stylist [View](/team-members/lynzie) - ![Smiling woman with shoulder-length wavy brown hair wearing a black leather apron against a pale wall](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fsmiling-woman-black-leather-apron-48x64.jpg%3Fprefix%3Dtenants%252F6a0205f7606080d2b25cc1a2%26v%3D1782221459670&w=96&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) Beckie Senior Stylist [View](/team-members/beckie) - ![Smiling woman with straight blonde hair wearing a black uniform against a white background](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fsmiling-woman-black-uniform-white-background-48x48.jpg%3Fprefix%3Dtenants%252F6a0205f7606080d2b25cc1a2%26v%3D1779446081934&w=96&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) Alicia Senior Stylist [View](/team-members/alicia) - ![Salon interior with stylists and clients, overlaid text reading 'PARK ROW' and 'NEW IMAGE COMING SOON'](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fpark-row-new-image-coming-soon-48x48.jpg%3Fprefix%3Dtenants%252F6a0205f7606080d2b25cc1a2%26v%3D1779446082738&w=96&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) Jess Stylist [View](/team-members/jess) - ![Salon interior with stylists and clients, overlaid text reading 'PARK ROW' and 'NEW IMAGE COMING SOON'](/_next/image?url=%2Fapi%2Fmedia%2Ffile%2Fpark-row-new-image-coming-soon-48x48.jpg%3Fprefix%3Dtenants%252F6a0205f7606080d2b25cc1a2%26v%3D1779446082738&w=96&q=75&dpl=dpl_DEc4fGhEc1SCRZZutzoEsRuDy1CJ) Imogen Saturday help [View](/team-members/imogen)
