The picture you posted: http://www.wwbeautystore.com/images/ad_hair_perm.jpg is a spiral perm. If you want to buy your own at-home perm. They are much cheaper. They cost from about $7.99- about $19.99. These perms don't hold for as long as if you got it done in a salon. A salon perm could cost about $60-$150.
Here is some information:
"Perms"
What is it? A way of hair that you get it chemically curly. It's a loose body wave and gives hair movement and volume.
How does it work? It depends on the natural texture and condition of the hair. If the hair is -straight, large curls are done to create a soft, natural wave. If the hair already has a slight wave, the natural curl is emphasised by focusing on the bottom layers of the hair. This is all achieved with large rollers and strong setting solution.
What hair types are (most) suitable? Those with healthy hair who are looking for a little bit of oomph, or those with the kind of limp hair that just sits there.
Which hair types are not suitable? Anyone with bleached, overcolored hair.
How long does it take? Usually around one and a half hours.
This was on the website: http://www.hairstyle.com/hair-articles/the-new-perm.htm
Perms also cause your hair to get damaged, brittle, and rough. It takes a while for your hair to get back to normal. I haven't personally gotten a perm but my mother always said this when I wanted a perm. Also, my friend had a perm done and now her hair dresser said she cannot straighten her hair for about a year or so, until her hair becomes undamaged.
Hope this helps!
