Why do you have to wait 2 days to wash your hair after a perm?

Getting your hair wet after a perm can de-activate the curls. The chemicals used to curl the hair and keep it curly do not hold up when exposed to water. After a day or so, the chemicals have done their work fully on the hair and are no longer succeptible to water damage. After a perm the hair is soft and the cuticle is still open. If you wash your hair the water and shampoo will get into the hair shaft and undo all the work your stylist did and you will have wasted your money.

Wash your hair before you perm, but don't use conditioner. Damp hair is easier to wrap around perm rollers, and it's going to be a while before you can re-wash your hair after the perm!After the perm is finished, do not wash your hair for 48 hours, as the chemical bonds are still setting. If you wash your hair too early, it may effect the perm results. I'd also suggest getting your hair trimmed after a perm.
