I actually spent a good ten minutes going, "perm? that's not a perm!" before remembering that "permanent" means both "permanent relaxant" and "permanent wave". Though does anyone still call it a "permanent wave", these days?
The no-shampoo approach... I had no idea that's so widespread. My hair's coarse, neither thick nor thin, with some wave and a bit of curl only thanks to the coarseness, and I just got tired of shampooing it. (Yes, honestly, I'm just that freaking lazy.) I figured it was just a fluke, or something, that my hair's healthier now. I had no idea there was something to it! Heh.
But making notes, and it looks like haircare wouldn't be so much before-bed as in-shower or right-after-shower (if you have major leave-in conditioner). And putting up and/or wrapping hair before sleeping at night. *makes notes*
