Well, I have heard someone say you should perm your hair every 2 months or more but my mom said if you wait too long your hair will fall out. How often should i do it and why

A beautician told me every 4-6 weeks, but try to wait 6 weeks if you can. I really do not know why.

When I used relaxers I found that if I waited more than about 8 weeks then I would start to have breakage. But everyone is different. You can read an article about being careful with relaxers at: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/25100/caution_needed_when_using_hair_relaxers.html
