Hi, I'm not sure if I'm reading this right, but a reverse perm is like a chemical hair straightening? If so, it's probably not what you're looking for, especially seeing that when the hair regrows, you will have curly regrowth and straight ends (which trust me, can be unsightly). So you would have to get it done regularly to have the results you want, and it can be very damaging to hair (believe me). Also, the straightening can pretty much take away all curl, and it can be a real ***** if you decide that you want some sort of curl (of course it depends on your hair type). I don't know of anyway that you could get your hair to be like that, but maybe enquire with a hair dresser. They may have the solution you are looking for.
PS if you find the miracle treatment, let me know!!!

Ok, I STOPPED doing reverse perms several years ago. It was OK, but I have very curly hair. Then I began perming my hair on larger rods to reshape the curl to a larger curl pattern. Boy has that been a year and a half mistake! It took out the color- my hair is copper red from what used to be deep auburn on the ends and about halfway up the shaft. I thought I would need to cut it all off, but I began doing deep conditioning religiously it helped. Long story short, I stumbed on this natural product- Bodiphier {removed} It saved my hair! Comb it through leave it on for 10-30 mins depending on how much curl you want to remove. Its natural, doesn't harm the hair or change the color, its easy, affordable (about 20.00 for 2-3 applications), my hair is great and in better condition than when I began. It can be used on all kinds of curly hair; thick, frizzy, course, fine, etc. I promise I don't work for the company, I just got real lucky!

How long do you leave it in? What would you suggest for me? I guess I have med curl, if i go to bed with it wet and all pulled back in ponytail, then in morning all but ponytail part is straight. I just want the larger curl look so should I just leave on 10 minutes, looks like a good product? Have you heard anything about Ojon suppose to be great treatment for curly or dry hari makes your hair really soft but expensive, $45 dollars.

Hi Here, I'm sure it would work for you- it'll work on any curly head. Best yet, if you do it for say 10-15 min the first time and you still want it straighter, just do it again in about two weeks. It has enough for several applications- depending on length and hair thickness. I have shoulder length hair and get two full applications per container with a little over that I give to my friend who has very short hair to finish. I looked up Ojon and it seems like a deep conditioner. I had ever heard of it before your post. Keep in mind the stuff I was talking about- Bodiphier is permenent. It is not supposed to waer off, so keep in mind before you try it.
