Anyone had a body wave perm?

There was a thread a while back on digital perms. I'll see if I can find it.

Here you go

I didn't get a body wave perm, I got a spiral perm & I LOVED it! LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT!
Get them to really test your hair before you have it done though, you don't want to end up like last time!
I used to do a lot of swimming around the time when I got mine & I had to wash my hair for 3 months solid with a special 'stripping' shampoo to take the chlorine out my hair shaft. Each time they would test a little section of my hair & it would turn to jelly & disintegrate because of the reaction with the chlorine. Finally I got it done & I loved it! I think I was 19 at the time though, so agesssssssssss ago now!
Good luck!
