What is a men's straight perm?
It's a straightening perm tailored to short men's hair . It relaxes curl and frizz in the fringe, top or sides, making K-style cuts such as the comma hair or two-block easier to style every day.

How a men's straight perm is done
-
English consultation
We check your hair history, face shape and the look you want, using reference photos. -
Hair & elasticity test
A strand check tells us if bleached or damaged hair needs a protein pre-treatment first. -
Protective pre-treatment
Ampoule and protein care shield the hair before any perm solution is applied. -
Rod sizing & winding
Rod size and direction are chosen for the wave pattern and length you want. -
Setting & neutralising
Low-irritation solutions reshape and then lock the new shape; digital perms add controlled heat. -
Rinse, care & style
A conditioning rinse, then a styling lesson so you can recreate the look at home.
Aftercare: make your perm last
- Wait 48 hours before shampooing, swimming or tying your hair tightly.
- Use a sulfate-free shampoo and a light curl cream or essence on damp ends.
- Dry roots first on a cool-warm setting, then shape the ends with your fingers.
- Book a trim or touch-up every 3–4 months to keep the shape fresh.
- Avoid colouring or bleaching for about 1–2 weeks after a perm unless your stylist plans both together.

Men's straight perm FAQ
What is the difference between a down perm and a straight perm?
A down perm targets sides that stick out; a straight perm smooths curl or frizz anywhere on the head.
Will my hair look unnaturally flat?
No — we keep natural movement and can combine it with a comma or volume style.
How long does it last?
The treated hair stays straight; you will notice texture only in new growth.
