Your permed hair is heavier than your growing hair so remember it is pulling on you rooted hair. And to help your hair grow faster don't wash it for a few days. I don't think there is a exact time period for your hair to curl, but I do know that perms take curl out of your hair every time you prem it. So your hair may never curl like it used to. Hope this helps, Colleen

How Long Does It Take For Curly Hair To Curl?

I have naturally thick, curly hair. I once started wearing perms and decided to stop after a year or two. I had a very sensitive scalp and the perm always burned me EVEN the ones i got from the professional stylist. I decided to go back to natural. At first when I washed my hair, it would still hang straight while wet because the perm was still effective. But with time, I noticed that it started curling again when wet. Now It's easy for me to go back and forth from a straight to a curly style because I use only heat or wetness and no perms. Because the perm that you always had, you changed the structure of your hair with chemicals. If you are going to continue to grow your hair out natural without those harsh chemicals, you will probably have to wear rollers in the meantime until your hair starts curling on its own. Every time you wash and condition your hair, you wash a little more of the perm out of your hair. Some women I know who wear the curly style naturally use heat to like sitting under the hair dryer with hair set in rollers or they use curling irons (but don't overuse). Also if you do either one, use a good product that prevents breakage and heat damage. How long it will take for your hair to curl on its own, i can not say. But if it was naturally curly/wavy, then it will curl again... hopefully not too long.
