It is not recommended to do it on weak hair to girls who want to additionally add volume to their hair and radically change their image. Before deciding to take such a step, it is worth carefully choosing the chemical composition.

Curling curls in a chemical way is of several types, which differ among themselves in the execution technology and the components of the composition. Its main varieties include the following.

A feature of the procedure is the use of a glycerol-based product that penetrates into each hair without revealing its scales. The result is durable and curly hair that lasts at least 6 months. It is undesirable to do such chemistry on soft and thin curls. In addition, there is a more gentle version of acid chemistry, it is performed using thioglycolic acid, but it is characterized by a short effect (curls last only one month).

This is a long-term perm that is made using ammonium thioglycolate.

The composition of this chemistry has a double effect on the hair zones, thanks to this, the curls give in to minimal stress and acquire the shape of a curl, which has a natural and elastic appearance. This way you can curl even the softest and finest hair, curls on them can last a maximum of 12 weeks.

It has a therapeutic and nutritional effect, since the composition is characterized by the maximum presence of proteins and amino acids. These components protect the hair from the negative effects of chemistry. After curling, the curls acquire a soft structure.

It is a complex consisting of proteins and lipids, which have a beneficial effect on the hair and restore it well. As a result, beautiful curls are created that last from several months to six months.

Great for those girls who want to have well-groomed hair, as it includes silk proteins.

It belongs to the most harmless and popular types of curls. The composition does not transfer hydrogen, ammonia and acids. The active component of the perm is cysteamine, which is a biological quality that has a property similar to that of a natural protein. After such chemistry, the hair becomes well-groomed and healthy, and curls look natural and blend beautifully with bangs. The effect is observed up to 6 months.

It is considered an excellent alternative to classical chemistry, since it is performed using components that do not penetrate the internal structure of hairs. Curls after this curl begin to straighten after 2 months.

Perm on medium length hair may look different depending on the type of wrapping. Therefore, before proceeding with this procedure, it is important to decide on your image and type of hairstyle. To date, stylists do it using the following methods of winding curls.

This wrapping method involves the use of Olivia Garden curlers, thanks to which curls are tough and large. In addition, after hair regrowth, the transition between natural and twisted curls is not observed.

The winding of the strands in this case is carried out from the ends to the roots, perpendicularly placing the bobbin.

The work is done using soft papillots, a curl is created by bending and fixing the ends of the stylers. A feature of the technique is that each strand needs to be zigzagged, and the curlers should be tiered.

During the curl, only the root area of ​​the hair is treated. It is usually used to correct overgrown areas and to obtain additional volume.

Ideal for women of any age, regardless of hair type. Perm is also recommended for girls who want to save time on hair styling.This method is also used when temporary and weak chemistry is done.

This is a modern method of winding, which provides for both vertical and horizontal placement of stylers.

Curls form only at the ends of the hair, giving volume.

This method is usually chosen by those ladies who want to add volume to the hair in the face, leaving the basal and parietal region in its natural form. For this, a frame is attached to the bobbin from the first row, it allows you to form a trapezoid from the remaining bobbins.

The founder of this technique is the famous brand Loreal. The composition, converted into foam using a special compressor, is evenly applied to the hair, enriching them with oxygen.

Curls are wound on a special hairpin (non-metallic), then processed with a chemical composition. As a result, a small wave is created and curls “rise” quite high.

It is considered an excellent option for owners of too sensitive skin. Contact with the skin is prevented by a protective cap with holes that is worn on the head before the procedure.

Despite the fact that perming is recommended to be done in beauty salons, girls with certain skills can do it on their own at home. To do this, you must first prepare a set consisting of:

• two plastic containers, they will be needed to prepare the fixing composition and reagent;
• brushes;

• winding tool (papillotki, plastic curlers, bobbins).

After that, you should decide on the type of curl and whether the hairstyle will be with or without bangs. Thin and weak hair needs to be prepared for the procedure in advance, providing them with therapeutic care. Chemistry on highlighted strands can be performed 2 weeks after dyeing, and it is recommended to treat red curls with a gentle composition, this will reduce the risk of yellowing. The execution technique itself is as follows.

• The next step will be wrapping hair on curlers. The most beautiful is considered to be a wave with the use of horizontal promotion, during which the stylers are placed in zones: from the forehead to the back of the head and on the sides. In that case, if the chemistry is done on whooping cough, then wrapping should begin at the tips and fix the styler near the roots. The strands must be taken of the same width, not more than 5 mm.
• Then the skin near the wound curls carefully lubricate with cream and wear protective clothing, gloves.
• Next, the composition is prepared, for this, all components are poured into the container and thoroughly mixed. Their dosage is indicated in the instructions taking into account the length of the strands.
• Sponge soaked in a chemical solution and with quick movements it is applied to the curled hair. The nape is processed first, then the crown, then the procedure is completed laterally.
• A plastic hat is put on the head, they cover it with a towel and wait for the effect of the composition for a certain time (according to the instructions in the instructions).
• After that the reagent is washed off with water, and the wound curls get wet with a towel. The procedure is continued by applying the fixative, it is also distributed using a sponge. The latch is held for 7 minutes and the curlers are removed.
• The wave ends unwinding the strands and applying the remainder of the retainerwhich is left on the hair for 5 minutes. Then the head is well washed with water, then a rinse or vinegar solution, which will help neutralize the action of alkali. They wipe the hair with a towel and apply balm.
