Men's perm hairstyles: tight curly perm, loose wavy perm, perm with curly fringe

Three perms for men with straight hair who want curl or wave: a tight curly perm on top of a fade, a loose wavy perm at medium length, and a perm with a curly fringe over tapered sides. Use them to see what each perm does to the curl. Type a different direction, such as korean perm or blond curls, to ask for a variation.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the nine pictures?

Three perm looks, each in three views: a front view, a curl close-up and a black-and-white portrait. The looks are a tight curly perm, a loose wavy perm and a curly fringe.

What does the close-up show?

The curl pattern itself, with each curl or wave sharp, so you can judge its size and tightness.

Can I ask for a different length or perm style?

Yes. Type it as your direction. The new picture follows your words, so it may differ from these nine.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
