Perming

Looking for natural volume, soft waves, or defined curls that last? Our Perming service at Changing Grooms is tailored to give you movement, body, and texture—without the daily styling effort. Whether you're after a modern root lift, a full head of curls, or a soft wave for easier styling, our experienced stylists will customise your perm to suit your hair type, condition, and desired finish. We use high-quality perming systems and always begin with a thorough consultation to ensure your hair is suitable, healthy, and ready for transformation. Aftercare advice is included to help your new texture look and feel great for weeks to come.
