What do you call it when you have your hair styled part-permanently?

I want to have my hair curled but so that I don't have to use a curling iron every morning. What is that called and roughly how much does it cost? Thanks. XxWhat do you call it when you have your hair styled part-permanently?
You mean a Perm?...The Cost depends on the Salon, and whether you go to a school or a salon....At my mum's school, The cost for a regular(I'm assuming this is a Perm.) $20.00, and $40 and up for a Specialty Wrap.
