Perm for Mature White Hair
A: The easiest way to give your naturally straight hair (gray or not) added body is by having a body wave service.
The concern in performing this service is the fact that with your hair being absent pigment, the cuticle layer is often very tightly compacted on the hair shaft. This prevents the chemicals (as well as moisture) from penetrating into the hair and performing its job.
Your stylist should perform a test curl prior to attempting the body wave on the whole head. The test curl will reveal how resistant the hair is and will allow the stylist to figure out more-accurate timing for processing the body wave.
Of course, the final determiner of the style you should wear is flattering your features. Specific lengths, cutting angles and layering are all factors that depend on the needs of your head and face. Women who have pure white hair and wear it in stylish (and even some classic) looks can often present an absolutely stunning appearance.
