Perms
Would You Ever Get a Perm?
Perms get such a bad rap just because grandmas love them and they were a staple ingredient of '80s hair. Despite the fact that I know how useful they can be, and how many different kinds of perms there are, I might almost be hesitant to tell people if I got one, just for fear that they'd start laughing before I could explain. What's your opinion on the whole thing?
Have You Ever Had a Perm?
Ah, the permanent wave. My seventh-grade self had some questionable taste in hairstyles, and I wanted a spiral perm so badly. (All the popular girls had them.) After much nagging, my mother relented and gave me a home perm.
Is Eyelash Perming Safe?
Women can be tempted to do some painful and dangerous things in order to shave seconds off their beauty prep time. Even though the promised results of some of these procedures can be tempting, sometimes they are just not worth the risk.
I see how eyelash perming could sound enticing: You'd have perfectly flipped-up lashes 24-hours a day, no eyelash curler required.
Bellissima! A Perm For Your Eyelashes
We've heard all about lash extensions for length, but eyelash perms are strictly for curl. The Japanese Eyelash Perm, offered at salons such as Takamichi Head to Toe Hair Salon in New York City, is becoming a popular way to have semi-permanent, flirty lashes.
The procedure can take anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes, it costs around $80 and lasts between three to five weeks.

Perm Sales Are Up; The '80s Are Back
When model Agyness Deyn started dressing like Max Headroom, I figured it was just a harmless nod to '80s style. But now, I'm worried that the decade's look coming back in a bigger, more nefarious way. In Britain, the perm is back in a big way:
Sales of do-it-yourself permanent wave kits have climbed 50 percent in the past year, according to Superdrug.
Beehive vs. Perm: Which Amy Winehouse Hairstyle Do You Prefer?
Amy Winehouse was snapped yesterday on her way to the pub sporting yet another enormous beehive. It looks like she's wearing a hair piece attached to her new short hair do. Only last week, Amy debuted her new curly perm but it appears like she's already having nostalgia for her trademark big retro hair style.
Love It or Hate It? Amy Winehouse's New Perm
A high spirited Amy Winehouse visited her old flat in Camden last night. She wore a scruffy tee shirt but all eyes were on her latest hairstyle. Amy's new short perm looked messy but admittedly super shiny as she scampered around London wearing not a scrap of makeup.
A Fabby Halloween: Flashdance Fever
Who can forget Jennifer Beals's sexy moves in '80s cult classic Flashdance — remember that water scene? Sizzle. She alone might have been responsible for the flurry of females dashing to get themselves an oversize sweatshirt and leggings — I know I sure did.
Good Hair Has a Greater Point
If you've ever felt as though you'll look bad unless you straighten your hair, get highlights, go blonde, get a perm, or cover your grays, you should see Good Hair.
