it is true the perm procedure takes far longer as does the recovery, but you will never have to deal with the fear of it being removed (for any reason other than your personal safety).
it is awsome you rocked the temp with such awsome results ...you are totally going to love the perm.
you have more options with your contoler input with the perm, i was stoked about that....better input capabilities means better coverage.
only a few more weeks huh i am sure you are counting the days
hang in there i will be counting with you
