A dry perm, also known as a dry set or roller set, uses rollers and heat to create curls or waves in relaxed hair. This method avoids the use of traditional perming solutions. The process involves applying styling products to damp hair, rolling it, and then drying it with a hooded dryer.
Step-by-Step Guide to a Dry Perm (Roller Set)
This guide follows the provided reference:
-
Prepare your hair: Begin with damp, relaxed hair. Apply ISOplus Wrap and Styling Foam generously, ensuring even distribution throughout.
-
Roll your hair: Securely roll your hair using rollers. The size of the rollers will determine the size of the curls (smaller rollers = tighter curls).
-
Set your curls: After securely tying the rollers, apply ISOplus Spritz Spray all over your head. This helps to set the style and add hold.
-
Dry your hair: Place your head under a hooded dryer for approximately 1.5 hours (the exact time may vary depending on your hair type and desired level of curl).
-
Remove rollers and style: Once dry, carefully remove the rollers. Gently style your hair as desired, perhaps using a comb or your fingers to separate curls.
Important Considerations:
- Hair type: The success of a dry perm depends on your hair type and texture. This method works best on relaxed hair.
- Product selection: Using high-quality styling products designed for this purpose is crucial for achieving optimal results. The reference mentions ISOplus products; however, other suitable products are available.
- Drying time: The drying time may need adjusting depending on your hair's thickness and the heat setting of your hooded dryer.
