Yes, ammonia is typically found in hair perms as it helps to open the hair cuticle and allow the perming solution to penetrate the hair shaft. It assists in breaking down the disulfide bonds in the hair, allowing for the restructuring of the hair's shape.
Rule #1 : no wetting including washing & swimming 5 days before putting a perm in it. Chances are the chlorine would still be in your hair and will react to the perm chemicals and result in hair loss and or the perm will not take to your hair. Also no wetting 24 hrs prior to applying the perm or the chemicals will not take to the hair and it woukd be a waste of time.
No, acetone should not be used to remove a perm in hair. Acetone is a harsh chemical solvent that can damage your hair and scalp. It is best to consult a professional stylist for safe and effective methods to remove a perm from your hair.
The time to leave a perm solution on your hair typically ranges from 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the brand and type of perm you are using. It is important to follow the instructions provided with the specific perm kit to achieve the desired results without damaging your hair.
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.
The main ingredient in a perm neutralizer is usually hydrogen peroxide. It helps to stop the chemical reaction of the perm solution and stabilize the hair's new shape.

Perms are chemical. A perm can not be cleaned out of the hair. A perm can only be removed by other chemicals, or time will wear a perm out. If you choose to remove your perm with chemical perm remover, you take a big risk of the added chemicals doing damage to your hair and scalp.
Nope, but it will take the curls out of your hair and ruin your perm.
The perm may be weakened, but it shouldn't destroy your perm.
No. The neutraliser stops the perm lotion from working on the hair. If you just left the perm lotion on it would keep breaking down the bonds in the hair and the hair would be destroyed.
Yes, however only when the person doing the perm does not know what the chemicals in the perm and neutraliser are capable of doing to the hair. Always ensure your hairdresser does a number of hair tests before perming the hair. If the hairdresser has done this and has experience of perming hair, then it will be safe to have a perm.
