Benefits of Root Perm
Adds Volume at the Roots
Ideal for clients with flat or lifeless hair, a root perm boosts lift directly at the scalp for a fuller, more voluminous look.
Low Maintenance Styling
With a root perm, hair retains its bounce with minimal effort.
Natural Appearance
Since only the roots are permed, the overall effect is subtle and natural, blending seamlessly with the rest of the hair.
Enhances Shape of Hairstyles
A root perm helps maintain shape and movement for a longer period.
Customizable
The technique can be tailored to suit different hair types, lengths, and client preferences, making it a versatile salon service.
Is Root Perm Right for You?
A root perm is an excellent choice for those seeking long-lasting root volume without the commitment or texture of a full perm. It’s a subtle yet effective way to enhance hair’s natural body, reduce styling time, and improve the longevity of certain haircuts.

Pair Root Perm with Other Services
A root perm works beautifully alongside other treatments to enhance hair texture, health, and shape. Here are popular pairings to consider:
Combining root lift with soft, flowing curls adds volume from scalp to ends, creating a balanced, layered look with structure and movement.
A soothing, clarifying treatment before or after your perm promotes scalp health, improves product absorption, and extends the life of your style.
Root Perm for All Hair Lengths and Styles
A root perm is incredibly versatile as it supports the shape and longevity of many cuts and hair types.
Short Hair
Adds lift and structure, preventing shorter cuts from appearing flat or lifeless at the crown.
Medium Hair
Helps maintain volume in layered or shoulder-length styles that tend to lose shape over time.
Long Hair
Creates a natural root lift for long hair that may feel heavy or flat at the scalp, restoring balance and dimension.
Fringe or Face-Framing Styles
Pairs well with fringe work or volume perms to softly contour and frame the face without full-length curls.
Why Root Perms Are Trending in Singapore
Root perms have become increasingly popular in recent years, especially among clients seeking subtle lift and natural styling. Here’s why root perm treatments continue to gain traction in Singapore:
– Influence of Korean Hair Trends
Soft, voluminous styles inspired by Korean beauty trends have made natural root lift a go-to request. A root perm complements these looks by creating effortless height without defined curls.
– Low-Maintenance Appeal
Clients appreciate that a root perm enhances their style without adding daily effort. With built-in volume, there's less need for blow-drying or teasing at the crown.
– Versatility for All Hair Lengths
Whether your hair is short, long, or layered, a root perm integrates seamlessly with most styles, making it a practical and adaptable choice.
– Subtle Yet Effective Results
For those hesitant about dramatic changes, a root perm offers a more understated transformation. It enhances without overwhelming, aligning with the minimalist styling many now prefer.
– Works Well with Modern Cuts
From airy bobs to curtain bangs, many of today’s popular cuts benefit from added lift at the roots—helping the overall shape last longer and appear more refined.
