Like you my hair is dark-brown, and medium lenth. Another charactiistic that should be taken into consideration is type. If your hair is fine, you may not want to try getting a perm. Alot of times the hair wont hold it.
Another thing is what type of curls you want. I like ringlets. So i get a spiral perms, with the largest rods. If your not into that, just go to a salon, they'll help you decide.
If you decided to get a perm heres all you have to do to care for it.
For the first few weeks the curls will be tighter than you wanted, but that fades quickly, SO DON"T PANIC!!!
Also, don't wash your hair for 24hrs, and only use conditioner the second day.
As far as every management. All you need to do is wash it and use condioner every day. I suggest only brushing your hair when you have condioner in it. It lessens brakage, and if you brush your hair when it's damp or dry it frizzes.
All you have to do when you get out of the shower is use a little mouse, and a dab of lite get, and scrunch with a towel. if its humid out, spray a little hairsray on it. NOT alot! Just enough to seal the shine.
After that, try not to touch or style it until it's Dry.
I know this seems like a lot, but it's very easy to take care of! It takes me all of 5 mins to due my hair!
