Tell them you have a job interview and would like your hair not to stink. This means rinsing it, after both the wave lotion and neutralizer steps, for more than five minutes. If possible, have them use a normalizing lotion afterwards- it locks the perm in better (by closing up the cuticle quicker) and reduces smell. Too many hairdressers rush the process, and the result is mondo post-perm stench. (Not to mention frizzly hair).
