Which perm for your hair?

At the consultation, we propose the formula suited to your hair type and its condition.

Straight hairThe most common case: the perm brings movement, volume and texture.
Fine or flat hairWe favour soft waves or texture, so the hair is not weighed down.
Thick hairCurls come out very defined and lasting; we can combine the perm with thinning to balance the volume.
Natural wavesThe perm strengthens and evens out the wave you already have.
Short sides, fade or undercutA perm on top only, for texture where it shows.

Men's perm in Paris — your questions

How much is a men's perm in Paris?

At XOXO COIFFURE, a perm is from €70 on very short hair, from €95 on short hair and from €135 on medium and long hair, at the Essentiel level (simple styling included). The Sur-Mesure level, which adds a curl treatment and detailed styling, is from €90, €115 and €155. The consultation is included, and we tell you the total price before we start.

How long does a perm take?

On very short hair, 1 hr at the Essentiel level and 1 hr 15 min at the Sur-Mesure level; on short hair, 1 hr 25 min and 1 hr 40 min; on medium and long hair, 1 hr 50 min and 2 hr. A cut booked with it adds its own time.

How much length do I need?

At least 5–6 cm on top. On very short hair, with a short top and shaved sides, we favour a perm on top only. The more length, the more visible the curl.

Will a perm damage my hair?

A perm changes the structure of the hair. The consultation beforehand, the curl treatment of the Sur-Mesure level and a weekly mask at home limit its effect on the hair fibre.

Can I have a perm on coloured hair?

On tone-on-tone colour, yes. Bleached or balayaged hair is more fragile: if it is too damaged, the consultation (included) steers you towards a Genoma or hair botox treatment; failing that, we advise against the perm.

How long does a perm last, and how do I look after it?

3 to 4 months, depending on your hair type and aftercare. Shampoo 2 to 3 times a week rather than every day, use a moisturising mask once a week, let it air-dry or use a diffuser, and style it with a texturising mousse or a curl cream. We advise you for your own hair on the day.

Can I book online in English?

Yes: the Book buttons on this page open our online booking on Fresha, in English. Look for your hair length under its French name, shown in the price table above.

Do you speak English?

Some of our stylists speak English with clients; we're a French salon, not a bilingual one. Booking opens in English on Fresha.
