Product Details

Head Gear Perm Rods – Pack of 12

Head Gear Perm Rods are professional hairdressing rods designed for use during permanent waving and hair setting services. Each rod helps hold a controlled section of hair securely while the selected perming or setting technique creates the required curl, wave and movement.

Available in nine colour-coded diameters from 4mm to 16mm, the range allows the stylist to select the appropriate rod for the client's hair length, density and desired curl result. Larger rods help create softer waves and looser curls, while smaller rods produce tighter, more defined curls.

Each size is supplied as a pack of 12 perm rods.

Colour-Coded Sizing

Each rod diameter has a corresponding colour, making sizes quick and easy to identify during professional perming and setting services. The colour-coded system helps the stylist organise the workstation and maintain a consistent winding pattern across the head.

Versatile Curl Selection

The selection of diameters provides control over the finished curl formation. Large rods are ideal for creating softer movement, body and looser curls, while medium and small rods help produce increasingly defined, compact and tighter curl patterns.

Designed for Professional Winding

The rods are designed to support neat, controlled winding during permanent waving services. Correct section size, even tension and appropriate end-paper placement help produce a consistent curl while reducing the risk of bent or uneven hair ends.

  • Rinse where required and allow the rods to dry completely before storage.
  • Store each colour and size separately for easy identification.
  • Keep away from excessive heat and direct sunlight.
  • Replace rods that become cracked, distorted or damaged.

Safety Information

  • For professional hairdressing use.
  • Perming products must be used strictly according to their manufacturer's instructions.
  • Complete an appropriate client consultation before every chemical service.
  • Carry out all required compatibility, development and strand tests.
  • Do not perm hair or scalp that is damaged, irritated or unsuitable for chemical treatment.
  • Do not use excessive winding tension.
  • Avoid positioning securing bands directly against the scalp where this may cause pressure or marking.
  • Wear suitable protective gloves when handling chemical perming products.
  • Avoid contact between perming products and the eyes.
  • Rinse immediately and seek appropriate medical advice if accidental eye contact occurs.
  • Clean and disinfect the rods between clients.
  • Do not use rods that are cracked, distorted or damaged.
  • Keep rods and chemical products out of reach of children.

Please Note: Each colour and diameter is supplied separately as a pack of 12 rods. The final curl result will depend on the selected rod size, winding technique, hair length, hair condition and perming product used. Colours, dimensions and packaging may vary slightly and may be updated by the manufacturer.

Top Tip: Select a rod slightly smaller than the finished curl size required, as the curl may relax after processing. Keep sections consistent and use even winding tension throughout the head to help create a balanced professional result.
