    18 months later!

    18 month update: The attached photo is 18 months after my original medium-curl air perm. Considering I didn't start with a tight curl perm, and the curls are still hanging in there, I'd say I DEFINITELY got my money's worth. The ladies here use high quality solutions and take great care of you. --------------- It's taken me a loooooong time to finally get around to this review. But, I wanted to give my perm sufficient time to settle in and for me to see if it stuck. I am now one week short of 4 months with this perm and I still ABSOLUTELY love it!!! I love it so much I gave my Bitemoji the same perm! It only takes me 5-8 minutes each morning to apply the curling cream and twist strands with my fingers. The curls last through the day and just make me... well... happy! Shontalee was amazing throughout the whole process from calming my fears to final upkeep tips. Please give them your business if you are considering getting a perm.

    Perm, Six months later. Still super curly!

    Thelma. I will travel the world to make sure you are the only one to perm my hair. I am so grateful to have found her. Yes, she is that worth it. And because the perm just gets more and more beautiful as it grows out, I only have to get it done once a year. Thelma makes sure the perm doesn't damage my hair so my curls stay bouncy and healthy FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR!!! I don't have to curl it, style it, or mess with it in any way. I let it air dry and that's it! It's movie hair every day! Thelma cares about my hair and my hair feels the love. Thank you Permanently Yours! Thank you Thelma!

    Here are some information about the newer photos posted below. These photos are 2 months after the perm. Again, I don't style my hair or apply any products on it. So what you see is literally me after a shower, going to bed and waking up. I don't fix my hair even after waking up. One of the perks of permed hair is getting away with rocking a messy hair look (not all cases apply, I'm just speaking for myself :P) "I WOKE UP LIKE DIS, WE FLAWLESS" - Beyoncé

    I had super straight/thin hair, I had heard about Perms but I was super scared to get one. I finally met Shontalee and she was very informative and made me feel comfortable on getting one. She did an amazing job and I get compliments on my hair everyday! My hair looks so much thicker and it has a lot of volume now! Can't be happier! And honestly curly hair is way less work than straight hair and it always looks like you're hair is done.

    I scoured yelp for a reliable salon for perms, as the previous one I had was not done properly. I met Shontalee and immediately knew this woman would deliver me my future luscious curls. Shontalee is incredibly talented and knowledgeable, while also being mindful at all times of the needs and wishes of her client (we image searched a good 10-15 minutes for the perfect curl before putting curlers in). My normally straight/fine hair is now full of volume and the most perfect curls, and I've been getting compliments on it since I left the salon this morning. For those unsure of where to go, this salon has been specializing in air perms for decades (Shontalee herself started getting perms at this very salon as a teenager, whose mom also got perms here). I will not trust the future of my curls with anyone else but her.

    If you are considering getting a perm, don't go ANYWHERE else. Go see Cosette and her girls! I've gotten my hair permed by Cosette a couple of times before, and she does a wonderful job! Most recently I went in to see Shontalee; she's such a doll and I've never been more in love with my hair! As someone whose always hated my super fine hair, you've made my poofy, curly hair dreams come true! THANK YOU THANK YOU a million times! You all are the BEST!

    One visit and I will never perm my hair anywhere else ever again! I've had 3 perms in my life and this was by far the best experience and I couldn't be happier with the results. I actually had an appointment scheduled at a salon in San Francisco but when they canceled on the day of my appointment. I was so upset at first but honestly, it was a blessing because I found Permanently Yours! They were able to schedule me for the very next day and the woman who did my perm, Thelma, is so sweet and friendly - we spent the whole 4 hours chatting with ease. She is also very skilled and knowledgeable! This salon (and Thelma!!!) makes sure to prioritize the health of your hair as well as giving you the most beautiful curls possible. Something about the way she did it even significantly reduced the strong smell that usually lingers around for days afterward. I walked out of the salon earlier today and my hair doesn't smell like chemicals at all. She even took the time to style my hair, show me how to blow dry it, and what products to use/how often in order to take care of my curls. I can't believe it took me so long to find this gem of a salon! The only thing that could be a potential turn off to new clients is that dogs are frequently in the salon, so if you have allergies or are afraid of them it might not be the place for you! I love dogs and got to hold a tiny puppy for 5 minutes so I was absolutely more than fine with it but just wanted to mention as a fair warning to those who may not be.

    The curls came out so nice!

    Do they do perms for men?

    I know they do haircuts for men and children, so I would imagine they do, but just give them a call. They can do magic with any length and texture of hair so long as it is healthy, that's their top priority.

    Am I able to to color my hair after receiving a perm, for example, ombré/bayalage?

I chose to have Cam as my stylist since I had learned she was really good with vivid colors. So for my session, I got a luxe all over bleach (I had black hair to start) with haircut/styling and a vivid refresh (color). Cam spent a lot of time listening and understanding what I was after and also asked many good questions so that we could have the right understanding about what I wanted to achieve. She explained every step of the way and even made sure I was comfortable at all times, even when lowering the footrest of the hair wash station (every time!) I felt very comfortable with the process because she was able to anticipate what my concerns were - she reassured me and help me understand what to look out for, particularly the aftercare. Overall, I had a fantastic experience with Cam/Salon Valenti and I definitely will be going back for touch ups and future work. Thank you Cam!

    absolutely horrible experience. idk if its a Vagaro scheduling issue if thats what we're calling it…read moreor simply unprofessional stylist. Woke up early today Saturday to take my mother for her first ever hair appt scheduled for 9. We get there 9:12 (i believe) and theres a stylist there already working. States the stylist Sarah is on her way. To me is a red flag as if youre doing color & highlights your station would at least be prepped already.. we waited sitting there till 9:45 hoping she would show up..never showed up. The stylist there was kind enough to call her again (no answer) and offered my mom help but i declined. We set this appointment up for her as we have a party later today and had the time slot specifically for this. Waste of time & waste of a drive to sit there for about 40 minutes hoping she would show. This literally ruined the day. Didnt get a follow up call or nothing. Like i said idk if its a schedule issue or something that i did on my end wrong? but i have the screenshot of the email & confirmation of the appt for today.

I gave a call and spoke with Rheina -- she is such an angel!! She was so patient, helpful, and so knowledgeable on how to help just based on the information I gave over the phone. She was able to get me booked and then my Mom on Mother's Day. They are usually closed on Sunday but she was SO kind to come in just for her. My Mom felt so special and relaxed in the chair. Sooo relaxed that she took a nap. When it was my appointment, I felt so seen/understood! Ive never had a stylist before, every-time I got my haircut it was strictly business and no conversations were had. Whereas, Rheina was a whole different experience. She really wants to get to know her clients and made me feel so welcome from the get-go. Also, I didn't even know this when I booked here but this establishment is Filipina women-owned (Daphne) and Rheina is also Filipina too. As a Filipina-women, I felt so happy and at home being surrounded by such genuine, warm, and talented women!! The ambience and amenities offered here were so beautiful and well-maintained. I definitely felt pampered. Also, shoutout to Jack (Daphne's dog) for being the sweetest little guy that kept coming for pets/scratches. So cute!

He's consistently late to appointments, regardless of the day of the week or time of day. It's usually at least 30 minutes, and there was even a time when he was more than an hour late. The frustrating part is that he isn't running behind because he's still with another client. He'll be out getting lunch or something and come back with a drink while I've been waiting. I find this really irresponsible, especially when I'm paying $100+ for a haircut that already takes at least 1.5 hours. I don't mind the length of the appointment at all when it starts on time, but the additional wait makes it difficult to plan anything around it. I'm always stressed because I either need to be somewhere afterward or I'm coming in after work, and he's regularly not ready until at least 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment. I think my last appointment was the final straw for me. I had enough time to take myself out for brunch and even do a little shopping at Pacific Commons, and he was still an hour late. I really like his work, which is why I kept coming back despite the delays, but I won't be back for a while.
