Consultation stage before the down perm
Hair before treatment, before the real work begins

Lately my side hair puffing up has been bugging me, so after a consultation at Uahan Meori Wangsimni Centras Branch I decided to do a down perm and a cut together. We started with a quick consultation when I arrived. A photo before the real work begins, haha

They looked at my hair and recommended pressing it down naturally, without overdoing it, so I felt I could trust them with it haha

How flat does the side down perm press the hair?

The side down perm at Uahan Meori Wangsimni Centras Branch didn't feel overly pressed down; they styled it to look naturally tidy. Time to really start!!! They did the haircut first, then the side down perm!

They pressed it just enough to make it look "neat," which felt satisfying without being too much 👍 They checked the condition from time to time and kept asking whether anything was uncomfortable, so I was relaxed throughout the treatment 😊

After the down perm they went straight on to the cut! They tidied the overall line and neatened the parts that looked messy. They didn't cut too much and instead brought out the natural style, which made me happy! haha

How did the down perm and cut turn out?

When it was done and I looked in the mirror, I could see right away that the sides were no longer puffing up and were neatly in place. My overall impression looked much tidier too, a moment where just looking at it makes me happy haha

It seems like styling will be a lot easier, and the style itself feels more alive 👍 What I liked most was that it was set naturally, not overdone~!
