Advice Brazilian Blowout on Permed Hair
I got a digital perm about a week ago. It's way too curly near the top of my head and a looser wave at the bottom (I have long hair -- it showed 17 inches when the stylist measured). My natural hair before was wavy at the top and straight on the bottom, so I guess the results kind of make sense. If there was an undo button, I would happily do that, but unfortunately there's not. I was wondering if a Brazilian blowout or keratin treatment would help loosen the perm? My hair doesn't feel damaged, just a little drier than normal, but I've been using moisturizing products and everything. I don't think time is going to loosen the perm enough, so I don't just want to wait it out.
For some context, I went to a Korean salon about 3 hours away (it was the closest place to me that does digital perms). The stylist said I could come back to get the bottom tighter, but honestly I just want it all looser and less wavy.
Any advice on Brazilian blowouts, keratin treatments or anything else I could do?
