Advantages and disadvantages of technology

So what is a newfangled service? This is a kind of perm, which is performed using special gentle preparations developed by Schwarzkopf. They cause minimal damage to the scalp, bulb and hair shaft. Over time, other manufacturers also offered their compositions, therefore, in all good beauty salons in the country, you are offered to solve the problems of lack of volume, confusion and moodiness during combing.

Since chemical preparations are used, both positive and negative aspects are possible. Let's look at the pros first.

• Lack of strong and harmful effects, as during the classic usual perm. Thanks to this, manipulations can be carried out as needed, without waiting for the strands to grow back and become obedient.
• The effect disappears gradually, so even in case of failure, you don't have to wait long to cut your favorite curls.
• After doing long-term styling, you can do whatever you want with your hair. It easily returns to its previous shape even after washing or straightening for one evening.
• If your hair is prone to oily, this problem will be solved by itself and your hair will not need to be washed too often.
  Now let's talk about the cons of the technique. Of course, we couldn't do without them.
• Dry strands that have already been damaged by discoloration, frequent staining, or other chemical attack will become more brittle and may also become straw-like due to overdrying.
• You can paint no earlier than three days after visiting the salon. But if you have already changed your color, keep in mind that the result will last less time on such a shock than on a natural one. Also remembers that the shade can change slightly.
• If you have thick and heavy curls, you may not see the action, since they are difficult to manipulate.

Advice!To prolong the life of your result, ditch your usual shampoo in favor of a special product for textured hair.

Execution stages

Despite the fact that the composition for manipulation can be purchased at any specialized store, it is better to contact a professional master to avoid negative consequences. In the salon, step-by-step instructions are followed.

• Preparatory process, implying careful combing of the hair so that there are no knots and tangles.

• Styling. With the help of curlers, thin strands are wound. The total that you want to get depends on the size. These can be spirals, light waves, or soft curls.

• Application of the mixture. The master evenly distributes the composition, thanks to which a long-term effect is obtained.

• Excerpt. DTo consolidate the action on the head, hold the mixture for a while.The exposure time varies depending on the quality of the product. On average, it takes 15 - 20 minutes.
• Wash off. After the specified period has expired, the hairdresser removes the curlers and rinses the mop with a nourishing balm.
• Drying carried out with a hairdryer so that you do not go home with a wet head and an invaluable result.

On average, you will spend 1.5-2 hours. But it depends on the length and condition of the curls.

Advice! On long hair, the effect is less pronounced, and does not last so long due to the weight of the strands. Therefore, it is better to choose a different procedure for yourself.

Types of curling

Depending on the size and type of curler, you can get different long-term styling. If we consider the types of winding, then four main types can be distinguished:

• Traditional classic, which is designed to create uniform waves along the entire length.

• Vertical reproduced using spiral curlers. Curly curls and chic volume are obtained.

• Local designed to lift the root zone for splendor. Then the rest of the mass remains intact.

• Texturing used for creative design. In this case, different curlers are used that show your individuality and originality.

As we can see, the structure of curls directly depends on the material on which they are wound. It can be spiral or voluminous curlers, bobbins or rollers. Determine the diameter of the desired curls first.

Advice! In the first 48 hours after visiting a beauty salon, try not to mechanical stress on your hair. Avoid washing, brushing and styling for this period of time.

For owners of short hair

Thanks to carving, you can create an ultra-trendy hairstyle on short hair that does not lose its original appearance. Please note that if the length is shorter than 10 cm, the desired effect will not occur. But if longer, then you get a delightful result in the form of an elegant classic bob with soft waves or a perky pixie with strands sticking out in different directions. If you want large curls, then they can only be done on the head of hair up to the chin.

Curling looks good on torn haircuts and classic ones. In any case, she gives femininity, elegance and tenderness to the image. Mature women should look at an asymmetrical bob with curled ends. If there is not enough volume, then raise it at the roots.

Please note that the bangs are also susceptible to the composition. If the size allows, then it can be wavy, but with an ultra-short one will get protruding antennas, which add playfulness and insolence to young ladies.

Advice! Avoid using a hair dryer and curling iron. From exposure to high temperatures, the waves straighten faster and lose their original appearance.

Medium length

In this variation, carving looks more like a perm than in the previous one. Curls are usually formed over the entire surface, adding mischief and tenderness to the owner.

The master must have a personal approach to each client, since the size and quality of the curls directly depends on the character and wishes of the girl. Tight and small curls are chosen by young unpredictable persons. Larger options are preferred by mature, confident women.

Advice! While styling, enhance the effect with styling and curling foams.

How to take care after the procedure?

You don't need much care to keep your shovel healthy and shiny. Just follow the simple rules, which we'll talk about in more detail.

• Avoid combs with iron or fine teeth. They quickly spoil the structure.
• After washing, dry your hair very gently. The best solution is to blot the mop with a towel and leave it on it for a while so that all excess moisture is absorbed.
• Never go to bed with a wet head, otherwise you will damage your curls. Dry naturally without a hairdryer.
• Regularly use recovery masks based on cocoa butter, aloe extract and other beneficial esters.

If you follow these simple rules, there will be no problems.

Advice! If you are feeling unwell or menstruating, postpone the procedure until favorable days. Otherwise, it will definitely not bring you pleasure.

Contraindications

A gentle perm also has a number of contraindications. Be sure to consider this before choosing a procedure.

• During pregnancy and lactation, it is better to refuse manipulation. The chances of chemical components entering the placenta or milk are negligible. The hormonal background plays a role here. It changes rapidly, so it is impossible to predict how the body will react. As a result, you can get only partial styling, in which curls will be on one half, and the other will remain even. This result does not look very attractive.
• If your hair was previously lightened or discolored, there is a possibility that it will simply turn into a washcloth from such an excess of chemical components. First, take a course of vitamins, restore the structure, and then subject yourself to other manipulations.

• Loose hair is also unlikely to withstand chemical exposure. If they are constantly under stress, they become extremely susceptible to environmental influences (even gentle compounds).
• Recently dyed curls become a contraindication, since the dye can stain, wash off or acquire a different shade. After coloring, two weeks should pass.
• Allergic reactions are hazardous to your health, so always have a sensitivity test first. To do this, apply a little of the compound to the bend of the elbow. If after half an hour there is no redness, itching or irritation, you can safely use the mixture.

Advice! If you decide to conduct it yourself, choose your composition responsibly. The purchased preparation should not contain ammonia and thioglycollates. Also test for sensitivity and allergic reactions to the ingredients.

Reviews of girls who have experienced carving on themselves

Alice, 25 years old: My master promised me that the result would last three months, but, as it turned out, then two. Most likely because the short length grew quickly and had to be adjusted. In any case, I am satisfied with the service, I will go to the salon again.

Irina, 47 years old: Long-term styling is much better than a perm. Firstly, the curls did not deteriorate, and secondly, it does not look so artificial. It simplifies life very much - I got up in the morning, put on makeup and went to work. It used to be very difficult to tidy up your head, especially if you hadn't washed it the day before.

Maria, 33 years old: I had good, well-groomed hair, but I wanted a dramatic change. Carving is not so bad. But after highlighting in blond, I'm glad that I stayed with the strands at all. The structure has deteriorated terribly, although the form does hold on for a long time. Conclusion: do not do two procedures at the same time, based on chemical compositions. Recover from the first, and then proceed to the second.

Evgeniya, 24 years old: A very cool procedure! Waves come off slowly and gradually. No need to wait until they grow back to cut. They just straighten up. Care is simple. At first, the price stopped, but I will not say that it is very different from a high-quality biowave. The beauty industry does not stand still, so you need to try trendy novelties.

Oksana, 30 years old: I have a bold type of hair. After the manipulation, it dried up noticeably, and the problems that arose before disappeared. It's a pity that the curls are blooming in a couple of months, because in my small town, salon services are not cheap.

Valentina, 42 years old: I usually take care of my wavy shock myself. But I was so tired of constantly aligning and curling in order to achieve uniformity that I turned to a familiar master. I really like everything so far. The rod is dense, does not deteriorate, and the shape holds for eight weeks for sure.

As we can see, in general, women are satisfied. Therefore, if you want to improve your appearance and forget about the constant use of styling materials in front of a mirror, take a chance on yourself to try out the newfangled technique.

Advice!Monitor your diet. Hair health often depends on your diet and bad habits. Give up alcohol, smoking and junk food. Drink at least two liters of water a day.
