I decided to get a perm in Cali since they’re soo cheap! Unfortunately, being in Cali without a car is pretty difficult. I typically get my perms in Garden Grove or Diamond Bar, but I had a few hours to spare in Irvine. I ended up just trying out a brand new place thanks to my best friend Yelp.com. That is how I found Delerbang Salon in Tustin!
I asked the lady for a digital perm (only $80!) but she looked at my hair and recommended a Wood Perm. What’s a wood perm? She described it as having the same effects of a digital perm, but it is way less damaging. They just use wood rollers and put on the potent stuff without any steam or machine.

It really is WOOD!
This is what it looked like after… looks pretty similar to the results of a digital perm!
I liked the results and they didn’t use a steamer or anything.. so it was probably less damaging! It was still $80 and I left pretty happy!
Has anyone else heard of a Wood Perm?

I’ve always seen signs for wood perms when at Korean salons but whenever I ask about them the stylist always tells me that my hair isn’t ideal for it. I’m glad you posted these pictures, because I’ve always been curious. Thanks!
wow you’ve heard of the wood perm! it was my first time ever hearing about it!
