Is it hard to give yourself a Matrix perm?

Answer by  mtacosta (82)

It is hard to give yourself any kind of hair perming, specially when it's your first time doing it. Chances are you could damage your scalp or your skin near your hairline. It's much better to go to a salon and let them do it for you.

It is never recommended to give yourself any kind of perm. If you leave it in too long, you can cause serious damange to your hair (and look like a poodle). You can also end up not leaving it on long enough or miss strands of hair, etc.

You have to be careful with how long the chemicals are in your hair. If you are going wavy or curly you have to make sure you hair is flat on the curler and if going straight you have to make sure that you hair is perfectly straight while setting.

You never want to give yourself a perm. The rods have to placed in a specific pattern. There is too much involved - see a professional!
