Use Corkscrew Hair Rods
You can perm hair shorter than 5 inches beautifully with standard rods, but long hair requires a special kind of rod. You must perm long and overly thick hair with a spiral or corkscrew rod. You can also use corkscrew rods to create spiral-shaped curls and to achieve a permed style that lies close to the head.
Instructions
1. Start with clean, damp hair. Comb the hair free of any tangles. Create a ½-inch, horizontal section in the lower nape, next to the hairline. Comb the newly created section down and pin the rest of the hair up on top of the head using the hair clips.
2. Begin on the right-hand side of the head, closest to the ear. Carve out a ½-inch section at the furthest edge of the horizontal section, creating a ½-inch-by-½-inch square segment of hair. Comb through the small square of hair to remove any tangles.
3. Place an end paper on the ends of the hair and fold it over the hair like a book. Place the end of the corkscrew perm rod (the end without the locking mechanism) underneath the ends of the hair. Wrap the hair using a downward rotation, threading the hair along the grooves of the rod, until the rod fits snugly against the scalp. Hook the locking mechanism into the opposite end of the rod to hold it in place.
4. Move directly to the left of the section and create an identical section. Repeat the steps to place another rod in the hair. Continue until you have wrapped the entire horizontal section. Create another ½-inch horizontal segment directly above the previously wrapped section and wrap it. Repeat this process until you have wrapped the entire head.
