Not everyone has the kind of time, expertise, or patience needed to flat-iron their hair on the regular.
But if you're interested in breaking up with your iron forever, there are options for waking up with pin-straight hair every day. Enter: the straight perm. As the name implies, a straight perm—aka Japanese hair straightening , thermal straightening, or thermal reconditioning—is a treatment that uses chemicals and heat to permanently straighten hair.
If that sounds like veritable hair sorcery, you're not totally wrong—which is why straight perms require spending hours in a salon chair, not to mention hundreds of dollars. But if you don't have plenty of leisure time and extra cash to spare, is it possible to do a straight perm at home? We asked three top hairstylists exactly how to achieve a salon-quality, DIY straight perm—here's what they said.
Read on to learn exactly how to give yourself a straight perm. Meet the Expert. Straight perms differ from other types of straightening treatments—like keratin treatments and chemical relaxers —in important ways.

Please help me. Nicole from Methuen, MA. Believe it or not if you had natural straight hair it will relax again on its own without causing further damage to it by trying to straighten it. To many chemicals on it too soon will burn it up. Each night wet your hair and put conditioner on it that is for treated hair and let it set on your hair while wrapped up in a towel for 20 minutes, this will give the dry hair its moisture back.
Try not to blow dry your hair for awhile just let it air dry if possible after you have conditioned well. Advertisement Most times its the ends that were damaged worst by the perm so maybe getting a inch trim on the ends in 4 weeks after its relaxed some will cut off that burnt ends, make you feel better and start your new hair to grow back which will boost your natural straight hair again.
You can wear your hair up until then in clips so it does not look so full and bushy and will make you feel better too until it relaxes on its own.
As long as your hair is in good condition all you have to do or have your stylist do is use the same perm solution but gently comb it through the hair and leave on five or ten minutes. Rinse and then apply neutralizer and gently comb and leave on for five minutes. Shampoo and then condition and you're hair will be straight again.

I've done reverse perms several times in my career, including my own hair. Let us know what you decide I need some hair advice. Back at the end of February, the 27th, to be exact I went and had a body wave done professionally. I kept repeating to the girl that I did not want a spiral perm or the poodle look. I even showed her pics of what I had in mind, which was like a nice beachy wave. She said yes we could do that and I even asked her to show me the size of the curlers and I was very hesitant with her choice as she picked a light peach color and a darker peach color and said since my hair was so thick that she picked those sizes so it would hold curl.
I hated it instantly and even told her I did not like it and that it was not what I had in mind she told me it would relax and give it some time. I even washed my hair the very next day in hopes that it would relax it a little. It did not. I took it upon myself to try and straighten it. I went to buy a perm and was just going to comb thru the perm solution to my desired wave when the gal at the store talked me into using an ethnic relaxer and said it would be less damaging.
I did this and ended up damaging my hair. I recommend that you start straightening the pieces closest to the base of the head. Wash your hair with your regular shampoo, dry it softly with a towel, and divide it into four to six sections.
Then, using gloves, start to apply the perm solution while you comb each section of the hair as you apply the solution. Always use a wide-toothed comb. Once you have finished applying the solution to your whole head, continue combing the hair straight for about 10 minutes. Once the time has passed, rinse the hair with plenty of hot water.
When I say hot, I mean as hot as you can stand without burning yourself. Dry your hair with a towel and apply the neutralizer to the hair the same way you applied the previous solution.
Let it sit for a few minutes and rinse it out again with hot water. If you feel that straightening your perm is a matter of life and death, try it out with the flat iron. If you feel that straightening your perm depends on the most important thing in your life, try the perm kit.
