Museum exhibitions can be permanent or temporary.
Permanent is an adjective that comes from the Latin word permanens . The term applies to that which persists or that manages to last over time .
For example: "The government ordered to install permanent guarding at the monument to prevent new acts of vandalism" , "I regret to inform you that the consequences of the accident could be permanent" , "Permanent confrontations are never healthy for a country" .
A permanent exhibition
It is easy to understand the notion of permanent when we think about the subsistence of something in a temporal extension. If a room is built in a museum to display archaeological objects every day, without the intention of replacing said exhibition, it can be said to be a permanent exhibition .
On the other hand, if the exhibitions rotate in another room (that is, one ends and another with a different theme begins), these samples are not permanent.
A type of hairstyle
Permanent is also the name given to a type of hairstyle that seeks to maintain waves in the hair for a long period of time. What a perm does is maintain the curl (waves) of the hair by using chemicals and certain patterns (such as rods, tubes, etc.) so that the shape is preserved.
Through perm, the natural structure of the hair is first broken and then a new restructuring is encouraged with the desired shapes. Beyond its name, the truth is that the perm does not last forever, but its permanence in the hair will depend on various factors (such as the type of hair or the frequency of washing).
The perm is a hairstyle that seeks to preserve the curl of the hair.
Permanent eyelashes
Fashion has no limits: all the products that have come out in recent decades to modify the appearance of eyelashes and simulate an increase in their volume do not present significant health risks, but the same cannot be said of perms since, In the worst case, it can cause blindness. Of course, the popularity that this treatment currently has does not seem to reflect its potential consequences.
At first glance, eyelash perming is simply one more service among the many that can be requested in beauty salons: a specialized technician is in charge of adhering a fluffy roller to the eyelashes of his clients, having previously placed gauze in the area. bottom of the eyes to protect them from a possible liquid spill; Let the product sit for the indicated time and that's it. However, in less than a day certain symptoms may appear that cloud the joy of the new appearance.
Risks of the procedure
One of the side effects is an annoying sensitivity in the eyes; It should not be forgotten that the chemicals used during a perm are dangerous when they come into contact with the skin for extended periods of time and much more so if they reach the retina.
On the other hand, for the lucky people who do not lose their sight or suffer allergic reactions, there is another disadvantage: permed eyelashes fall out in two months, instead of five, which delays their renewal; Furthermore, they weaken and become brittle.
Given the risks associated with perming eyelashes, why do so many people opt for this treatment? The answer is as simple as it is absurd: it saves you the time of curling your hair every morning with traditional products and it is very water resistant. In short, the convenience of not having to invest a few more minutes a day justifies the considerable difference in money and the possibility of losing your sight or having to deal with an eye allergy, among other negative issues.
In any case, for those people who cannot resist the advantages of perming their eyelashes, it is recommended that they go to a specialized professional instead of trying to do the treatment at home.
