A Brief History of Perm Rods
Origins and Early Developments
Perm rods first emerged in the early 20th century, a time when permanent waves or “perms” became a popular hair treatment. The perming process, which involves chemically altering the structure of the hair to create curls or waves, necessitated a tool that could hold hair in place while it was treated. Early perm rods were simple in design, often made from metal or plastic, and had a straightforward cylindrical shape.
Advancements in Design
By the mid-20th century, perm rods saw significant advancements.
The 1950s and 1960s brought a surge in popularity for perms, and the demand led to innovations in rod design.
Manufacturers began producing rods in various sizes and materials, including plastic and rubber, to accommodate different curl styles and hair types.
The introduction of flexible, plastic-coated rods made the perming process more comfortable and efficient.
