Men's Perms in Lakewood, CO
Perm — Men's perm / texture wave
A men's perm adds wave, curl, or texture to hair that grows in straight or flat. Depending on the rod size and the solution we use, you can go from a soft, natural-looking wave all the way to a defined curl on top.
At Taper Godz Barber Co. on S Wadsworth Blvd in Lakewood, every perm starts with a consultation. We look at your hair's condition, length, and how you like to wear it, then pick a rod size and processing time that gets you there without frying the hair.
Most perms are finished with a fresh taper or fade so the sides stay clean and the texture on top has a shape to sit in.
What's included
- —Consultation on curl pattern and rod size
- —Wrap, processing, and neutralizing
- —Shampoo and conditioning treatment
- —Styling and at-home care instructions
Frequently asked
How long does a men's perm last?
Usually 2-3 months depending on how fast your hair grows and how you care for it. As it grows out, the new growth comes in straight while the permed length keeps its texture.
How much does a perm cost in Lakewood?
Perms start at $125. Final pricing depends on hair length, density, and which barber you book with. Call (720) 603-9634 or email tapergodz@gmail.com to set up a consultation and get a quote before we start.
How long does the appointment take?
Plan on about two hours. The processing time is what takes the longest, and rushing it is what damages hair.
Do I need a haircut before or after the perm?
After. We perm first, then cut the sides and shape the top around how the curl actually falls.
Will a perm damage my hair?
A perm is a chemical service, so there is always some stress on the hair. We check the condition of your hair first and will tell you honestly if we think you should wait or condition it first.
How do I take care of a perm at home?
Leave it dry for the first 48 hours, use a sulfate-free shampoo, scrunch in a curl cream or mousse while damp, and skip the towel rubbing — it causes frizz.
