Can you put a perm in your hair while there is chlorine in it?

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.

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.
