Can perms and bleach be applied at the same time? The order, care and recommendations for men's hair.

Perms create a variety of movement in hairstyles, while bleaching gives hair a stylish look. Both are gaining popularity among sensitive men, but sometimes it is difficult to apply them at the same time because of the damage they can do to the hair. In this issue, under the theme of “both perms and bleaching,” we will introduce the order and points to keep in mind when applying perms and bleaching at the same time.

Can perms and bleaching be done at the same time?

It is possible to do perms and bleach at the same time, but there are some conditions. First of all, it is a prerequisite that the damage before the treatment is minimal, and the hair must be of a solid quality that can withstand the damage. If the hair has been colored or permed before, it is also important to inform the hair stylist of when the treatment was performed. In addition, the ideal finish is also important and depends on how many times the hair needs to be bleached and how loose you want the curls to be. Incidentally, when perms and bleaching are done at the same time, solid intermediate care and aftercare treatments are almost mandatory to take care of damage, so there is basically an extra charge for these services.

Above all, it’s important to discuss this with a pro!

Even if you have made an appointment in advance, understand that if the professional actually checks your hair and determines that the treatment is difficult, you may be refused. If you really do not want to be turned down, it is best to request a perm and bleach at your next appointment instead of a new appointment. If your favorite salon turned you down but you really want to try it, find a salon that specializes in high tones and perms and consult with them.

What order do you do perms and bleach in?

The order is mostly changed depending on the finished product. Basically, when double-coloring, perms are often done first for color retention, and perms are done later if you want to keep the curls strong. However, there are cases in which a strong perm is applied first in anticipation that the bleach will weaken the perm, or conversely, in anticipation that the color will fade. Incidentally, if you want to take into account the hair damage caused by perms and bleach, it is best to leave a few days to a few weeks between perms.

How to take care of permed and bleached hair?

Hair that has been permed and bleached is in a very sensitive state and needs thorough hair care. Here we will explain what is effective in maintaining the hairstyles created with perms and bleach.

How to care for permed and bleached hair: 1) “Refrain from shampooing on the same day.”

Shampooing is done when the chemicals are washed out, so you don’t have to do it on the same day; if you have your hair styled at the end, it is better to go to bed without it, if you are concerned about it. Since going to bed with styling products on your hair in the first place itself can cause hair damage, the use of styling products that create movement, such as hair wax, on the same day should be avoided if at all possible. If you must style your hair, why not use hair oil or hair milk for a natural look?
