Does the wave nouveau perm system contain sodium hydroxide aka is it considered lye?
No it does not. It contains ammonium thioglycolate, which is milder. It won't make the hair bone straight before the rods are put on, but it won't damage the hair or scalp, either.
Can you put wave nouveau on top of a perm or relaxer?
NO, NO, NO, NO!!!! Your hair will SERIOUSLY break off and become damaged. The only way to put in a wave nouveau "on top" of a relaxer is to cut out or grow out the relaxer first. PERIOD. Anyone who tells you that it is possible is not the person to do your hair. Ask any professional hair stylist. If they're in any way a good stylist they will know this basic rule concerning a wave nouveau. NO, NO, NO, NO!!!! Your hair will SERIOUSLY break off and become damaged.

Will straight hair look good in a perm?
Yes. My hair was straight with only a little wave, I put it in a perm a year ago and it was awesome...just remember, it's permanent. I'm sick of it now, but I have to wait until it finishes growing out. If I don't do anything to my hair, the top of it is straight and then near my ears it's wavy. Not so awesome.
Can you put a straight perm in a five year olds hair?
Technically, yes you can put a straight perm in a five year old's hair.Is it good for them? No.It will probably damage their hair a lot since their still growing.I would wait until they are at least get 11 or 12 and older.
How can you get your hair from curly to straight?
straightners, iron, blow drying. and you can get a chemical put on it to straighten it at your local hairdressers, similar to the one that does a perm.
I got a straight perm and reallyyyy regret it. I don't know what chemical was used because I got it done in another country and I don't even know the name of the salon. Can I get a curly perm over it?
I know how you feel. Getting a curly perm over a straight perm can be done, but it can also damage your hair. You have to be careful about how much heat your are putting on your hair. I would suggest going into a professional hair store and asking what can be done about it. If you are going to get the curly perm over the straight one, make sure your hair is clean before you start. Do not put any hair gel or spray in it, as this could affect the perm. Shampoo and conditioner are fine.
Blow dry your hair after you have put perm in your hair and put in hair rollers?
You could do that but it would make sense to perm your hair, blow dry, and then put your hair in rollers!
What if you dont like the perm that you put in what can you do?
Don't worry. It can be undone. There is a process called relaxing, it's like perming (chemical process) but it is used to straighten the hair. Your hair will be put on large rollers to take the wave out of it. Talk to your salon about it.
Can you perm braided hair?
yes. you just put a perm solution on it. i would know my grandma is a hari dresser.
Is wave nouveau like carefree curl?
No. They are different. I had a wave nouveau for years and it made my hair curly but there was no movement or bounce in it. I switched to a Carefree curl and my hair (the hair that grew in afterwards) had bounce in it again. I would never go back to the wave nouveau. Also, I don't use activator in my hair, so it doesn't have the greasy feel. I use Nexxus Humectress as a leave in conditioner, then I put Dep gel on it. It dries grease free and it just looks like I have natural medium sized curls. So many people tell me that I have "good hair" (I don't think that curly hair is the only way your hair can be "good", kinky hair is good, too).
Can you put in highlights without having a perm in your hair?
yes
