Use Perm at Home
If you do use a perm at home, it is essential that you read and follow the instructions supplied with the product. Remember to do a test curl to check whether your hair is suitable and check to make certain you have enough curlers. You will probably want to enlist the help of a friend, as it's impossible to curl the back sections of your own hair properly, so you will need a helping hand. Timing is crucial - don't be tempted to remove the lotion before the time given or leave it on longer than directed.
- First and foremost wash and condition your hair properly. Hair that has already been chemically processed may need a cream conditioner applied to protect the hair before perming.
- Use protective gloves when applying chemicals.
- When wrapping hair around rollers, each section must be wrapped smoothly and evenly, without stretching the hair too tightly.
- After thoroughly rinsing out the permanent solution with warm water, a neutralizer must usually be applied for five to eight minutes to set the curl.
- Remove rollers and then rinse off neutralizer thoroughly with cool water.
- Do not use if you are allergic to any ingredient in the product. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and mouth.

Help! I gave myself a L'Oreal home perm today. some of the wave solution dripped into my eye. It's now looking a little blurry, perhaps getting a bit better, I'm not sure. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow, is there anything I can do in the meantime?
