Beautiful hairstyles with Kanekalon

Outside the window, the wind howls, under your feet either snow or dirty porridge, and someone has snowy mountains or thunderclouds. And so I want to decorate this grayness. So let's do it - start with a hairstyle with Kanekalon. We offer you 25 ideas for simple and complex hairstyles.

Kaneka Corporation (株式会社 カ ネ カ) is an international corporation from Japan that began producing synthetic fibers such as nylon in the 60s. Over time, acrylic fiber was called kanekalon. There are two types of kanekalon: natural from seaweed and artificial - modacrylic fibers. At the same time, there are goods in stores that describe "artificial hair with an extract from algae." The higher the percentage of algae, the more natural the hairstyles look.

The naturalness of the hairstyle also depends on the color of the curls: you can choose the locks to match your own hair or use a real color explosion. Brunettes can become blondes for hours, days, or months, and vice versa.

If you want to get the most natural hairstyle, then before buying you need to consider the curls close, touch, check the label on which the composition of the fibers should be indicated. Not only the appearance will depend on this, but also the way to care for the hairstyle, as well as the safety of using the goods.

Kanekalon differs in a way of a wave:

• corrugation (twisted strand);
• zizi (a finished pigtail woven into a hairstyle);
• Katherine-twist (a strand twisted in a spring);
• curls (formed loose curls);
• pony (twisted locks with curls at the ends);
• curls (dense curly locks);
• Senegalese pigtails (two strands that, in the form of bundles, were twisted, for example, to the right, and then twisted to the left with each other).

Braids (braids) differ in weaving methods:

• colored braids can be of the same contrasting color with respect to their hair or can be of several colors;
• Afro-braids in an amount of up to 400 pieces using one or more colors;
• French braids in the amount of two to four pieces, straight or in a circle;
• a variety of spikelets: fishtail, dragons, French side, boxing, around the head, zigzag, double, two spikelets (this is a classic weave);
• dreadlocks are woven not only with kanekalon, but also with the use of woolen threads (this is if you do not want to shave baldly after when completely natural dreadlocks are bored).

Hairstyles using Kanekalon can be done without braids:

• mules due to color and slight negligence can become a beautiful hairpiece;
• a bundle braided using natural or multi-colored fibers;
• colored ribbons can be woven into flagella and thus make chic New Year's hairstyles;
• Afro-curls are performed in both one and two colors using the ombre technique for long hair, very suitable for girls with dark skin;
• the tail can be made independently of long hair, placing it high or low, on the side of the temple or on the neck, while the hair can be smooth or curled (curls, curls, ponies).

Boxer braids (boxing braids, the common name for hairstyles with Kanekalon) are becoming more diverse due to the material used. If earlier it was only about monophonic or multi-colored fibers, now artificial hair has appeared with the effect of a chameleon (when exposed to sunlight, they change color) or the effect of fluorescence (a great option for a club, evening city or night beach). Hairstyles of calm shades can be improved with ribbons, hairpins, and other accessories. They will decorate the head and strengthen the hairstyle.

The material will be universal if it is of high quality. Determining the quality is quite simple: you need to scald a new strand with boiling water. If the fiber has become very similar to natural wet hair, then this is a real kanekalon 100%. Modacrylic fibers are heavier, you can’t fix them with boiling water, you won’t curl them in curls. But almost all types of ready-made corrugations, zizi, ponies, curls are synthetics that are useless to check with boiling water.

Thus, the advantages of Kanekalon and hairstyles with it can be called:

• the ability to increase the volume, length of hair and diversify hairstyles;
• the ability to create a festive mood due to the bright variety of material;
• hypoallergenicity and safety of natural fiber;
• antistatic properties;
• the ability to create a new image without radical changes in your own hair.

Minuses:

• Significant weighting when wet artificial fibers;
• it is difficult to choose a 100% close shade to your hair;
• to fix, you need to braid the kanekalon very tightly in a braid, hair follicles are injured from this;
• the fibers fade pretty quickly;
• not suitable for people with weak hair;
• in the first 2-3 days, the head can be very scratched due to the fact that the hairstyle is very tight.

There is a fundamental difference in the created hairstyles and the materials used:

• the hairstyle is created in such a way that the hairpiece can be removed at any moment;
• hairstyle is created for several months.

In the first case, hairpins, clips, capsules are used. So, you need to unfasten them, disconnect. The second case - interweaving - is more complex and longer. African braids in the amount of 120-400 pieces are weaved in two hands for a period of time from 10 to 24 hours, in four hands - in 8-12 hours. This hairstyle can be worn (subject to correction) for 3.5 months. Other types of weaving will last about 3 months. Senegalese harnesses with Kanekalon tresses are 1.5 months old.

If the hairstyle was created for more than one day, then you need to follow several rules to preserve it:

• Kanekalon braids, tows and dreadlocks do not like hot water;
• head can be washed no more than once a week with a sponge without foaming;
• use any shampoo;
• air conditioning is welcome;
• a hairdryer is prohibited;
• of hats, only a scarf or bandana is allowed;
• at night, the hair is hidden under a hairnet or headscarf;
• Before bathing in ponds on your hair, it is better to apply gel or varnish for styling.

They are right who writes that not everyone dares to radically change their hairstyle. Long live those who have decided to become brighter, more interesting, more expressive. Sometimes this is the only way to express yourself, to attract attention. Let it be tresses to match your hair, but now loose hair looks magnificent and airy. Let it be a fluur, but now you are sure to be noticed at a beach party.

Many light hairstyles can be done independently. In some cases, it is enough to fix them with clips, thin transparent elastic bands, hairpins or hairpins, in others - weave them into your hair.

To get a beautiful hairstyle you will need:

• pastel and bright strands (the combination will look delicious);
• a mirror, preferably a folding trellis;
• a comb with thin cloves to create a parting;
• fasteners in the form of rubber bands, invisible, studs;
• wax, matte clay to style hair.

A large number of hairstyles are created on the basis of braids. Maybe one, two, three, and much more. Weaving can be direct and reverse.

Below is a step-by-step instruction for creating braids.

• The hair near the scalp is combed a little, apply styling. Process curly or very fluffy hair with wax or clay.
• Make a parting (parting).
• Take in hand the right amount of artificial locks and bend them in half. Start to weave into your hair from the bend point. You can fix it with a transparent rubber band or hairpin.
• Weaving "on the head" is carried out according to the rule: one strand of consignment note, two - their own. It is imperative to ensure that the artificial hair is on top, clearly visible, evenly distributed.
• The denser the braid is adjacent to the head, the more fashionable the hairstyle looks.
• Braids can end only with artificial locks or mixed with your hair. Too long linings trim.
• Hairstyle must be fixed with varnish.

Hairstyles for short hair can be made from 7 cm of hair length. The principle is the same, but you need to constantly moisten your hair with water to give accuracy. And Kanekalon will need much more.

You also need to choose the right color combination:

• on dark hair all colors look beautiful;
• The choice of color for blonde hair depends largely on the makeup and the created image.

New Year or March 8, a birthday or a wedding, a car party or a corporate party are holidays where you want to be extraordinarily beautiful. Kanekalon is a great way to achieve this. But here, most likely, the help of a professional master is indispensable.

• The trend is bright colors for youth hairstyles.

• For long hair, use large curls, curls and decorate it with flowers, headbands or hairpins.

• A bundle or muzzle with false curls can be made independently. Complete with pigtails, flagella, as well as accessories - and the evening hairstyle is ready.

• Not sure about the beauty of your own hair - Kanekalon will always come to the rescue.
