Full Head Perm

Wake up with body and bounce every day. A full head perm adds lasting curl, wave or volume to your whole head, so your hair holds its shape with minimal styling. With over 40 years of experience, perming has long been a speciality at our Tilbury salon.

Why choose a perm?

  • Saves time every morning
  • Adds volume to fine or thin hair
  • Lasts for months, not hours
  • Ideal if your hair won't hold a style

Your perm, step by step

Your stylist checks your hair's condition, then winds it on rods chosen for your perfect curl size. A perming lotion reshapes the hair, a neutraliser sets it, and we finish by showing you how to style your new curls.

Perm aftercare

Important: avoid washing or wetting your hair for 48 hours after your perm so the curl sets fully.

Use a moisturising, sulphate-free shampoo, scrunch rather than brush when wet, and book a trim every 6 to 8 weeks.

Only want lift on top? A half head perm may suit you. For men, see our male top perm.

Price: £55. Explore our permanent wave services in Tilbury, popular with clients from Grays, Stanford-le-Hope and across Essex.

    First time to Classic Hair. Had a friendly and warm welcome. Went in for a full head perm and my hairdresser was Danielle. Very pleased that I had Danielle, she was very nice, friendly and I felt very relaxed. My perm came out so beautifully and I’m so pleased. A big thank you to Danielle and will definitely be returning

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My daughter had a perm done here at Classic Hair Company in Tilbury for her birthday and we couldn’t be happier with the result. They did a fantastic job and the curls look amazing. The team were brilliant throughout the whole process, really friendly, patient and reassuring, which made my daughter feel completely at ease. She absolutely loves her hair and left with the biggest smile. Thank you for making her birthday treat so special. We’ll definitely be back!

    I had an appointment to have my hair permed. It was just past my shoulders in length. From the time I went in, I was greeted by smiling faces. The staff were all friendly, smartly dressed and very polite. I was told all the way through what was going to be the next step. Had lovely head massage from Holly as she rinsed my hair. Nicole was my hairdresser and I have to say she was absolutely amazing. She answered all my questions, gave me tips on the upkeep of my perm and was lovely. It was an absolute pleasure to come into a clean, happy and welcoming environment. Would definitely recommend and will definitely visit there again. Thank you Nicole and thank you Classic Hair Company.
