 * great info! I started this article but then was at a loss where to find the right kind of info for it. I suspect that if more Wikipedians were women this one would have been done by now :) Pschemp | Talk 20:09, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the corrections! I went for a perm today, and since I tend to check lots of things in the WP I discovered the German one in disarray (most of the information is in the Karl Nessler article!) and the English one, well, a stub :) And I was angry that I had not taken my digital camera with me to make a nice picture of the process... We live and learn! --WiseWoman 20:32, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Jackpot!
Got a hold of a cosmetology textbook today and went nuts getting info for this article. :) I feel like a wikispy.  Changes coming soon.  Pschemp | Talk 23:23, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

The permanent wave inventors name is CHARLES Nessler, not Karl Nessler.

I think maybe there should be some discussion of the poor choice of naming. I mean, the wave wears off...... 130.102.2.60 05:42, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Linked below in this talkpage is an image claiming that 'each hair curled will remain curled forever (except for the new hairs growing in)'. Besides that being a big 'except', I think the other claim is not true. However, a chemical and/or heat treatment is supposed to result in a longer-lasting curl than merely tensioning the hair around a curler, perhaps moistening it, and hoping for the best - in other words, the next-best substitute. However, none of this is discussed in the article itself, and if sources can be found giving the history of the name, it certainly should be. Arlo James Barnes 05:20, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
