Almost nine months after getting a package of hair perm from my sister-in-law Marla, I’ve got the ‘Do.’

Early this year, I had MyeongHee try the perm stuff she uses for her Korean customers, but that didn’t work. We suspected that since Asian hair is quite a bit thicker than my thin Caucasian hair it the goo was just not going to work. Marla shipped me some of the stuff she uses way back in February but by then I’d cut my hair too short for the look I wanted. We finally got around to doing the perm with the new goo.

Here’s the results:

The kids at the school either laugh (mostly the girls) or think it’s cool (mostly the boys).

You decide.
