Modern Perm: The Retro Hairstyle Making a Stylish Comeback in 2021

On Instagram, it's everywhere: the modern perm signals the triumphant return of the perm. Believe it or not, this iconic 80s hairstyle is back at the forefront of hair trends. For 2021, opt for a contemporary version—minimalist, loose, and natural-looking. Style it on your lengths paired with a short fringe for an edgy, rock-inspired vibe that turns heads.

How to Adopt the Modern Perm Trend

The modern perm stands apart from its vintage counterpart with gentler techniques. Ammonia is out; instead, we use softer methods that may not last as long but won't damage your hair. Essential tools? Fine, flexible foam rollers that create defined, tight curls. Start by washing with a sulfate-free shampoo, then apply to damp hair. Let it dry fully before removing the rollers. The result: a stunning modern perm that transforms your look.
