Transliteration[edit]

Fixed the incorrect transliteration of マ from "mu" to "ma". Any problems, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katakana M miyama (talk) 14:09, 15 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No illustration[edit]

The article is opaque without an illustration, which might be worth a thousand bytes.--Wetman (talk) 17:15, 16 February 2015 (UTC) --Error (talk) 23:27, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

'Variations' sub-head - irrelevant?[edit]

Are we quite certain that 'aippa' and 'iron perm' are at all different from the 'base' punch perm as described by the main body of the article? 'Aippa' appears to very much be 'iron perm' in the common style of Japanese abbreviations, and the 'iron perm' paragraph claims without citation that it's different because it uses a curling iron rather than chemicals and rollers, when the article itself describes that the punch perm was invented and replicated using a modified curling iron. Further to this, 'aippa' is described as a punch perm with all of the properties that appear to distinguish a punch perm from just hair which has undergone the process of perming... which is to say that calling 'aippa' or 'iron perm' separate variants of the punch perm is imagining a distinction which doesn't exist. The qualities attributed uniquely to the 'aippa' in this section appear, in fact, to be the defining features of the punch perm compared to any other perm hairstyle. I would suggest that the 'Variations' section should be excised completely unless anybody has evidence to refute my assumptions. 2A02:C7F:9449:4F00:293F:6FC6:E5A2:1FB4 (talk) 13:19, 7 January 2018 (UTC) KI-NatF[reply]
