And friends wonder why I hate to get my hair cut to this day!! Just a kid back then but the experience was bad enough to never permed or color it. Bad enough trying to breath, even worse when they stuck you under those old dryers. Luckily the 60's came along.
LOL this video was fantastic, for as much as a home-perm can be fantastic.. I wanna see some Dippity-doo commericials as well.... my mother used Dippity-doo from the 50s clear thru to the 70s and when it wasn't marketed anymore, she cried for an entire day! LOL
I'd like to see some empirical tests showing how well Pin Quick treated "weatherproof" hair stands up to REAL weather, such as a direct lightning strike.
@sunjy5 The thing is that waving lotion usually deteriorates 24 hours after you open it up so this stuff must have been abnormally strong. They never mention the neutralizer which is the lock-in step for perms. The silicone for the Pin Quick formula actually served no purpose and probably interfered with the ammonium thioglycolate that usually is the chemical breaking disulfide bonds for the perming process. Yes, I am a hairdresser.
"perfect for the latest natural style!"
Lol :D

I think perms like Lilt did not come with a screw top cap to reseal, its not that they were rare

Was it really considered a selling point back then to mention that a bottle came with a screw-on lid for recapping?
