How to make a corrugation without a curling iron?

As you know, girls with wavy and curly hair dream of having straight straight hair, and having straight hair - to wind. Curly hair gives the face volume, makes the hair lush. They decorate the girl, making her more attractive.

The corrugation is created using a special ironing. It looks like a regular hair straightener, only inside it there are bends that create the necessary waves. Now these corrugation nozzles come in a set for a regular straightening iron. Usually they are in a set of 3 - different widths.

Corrugation was invented in the 70s of the last century, however, it is still popular today, since creates a beautiful pattern on the hair and volume that lasts quite a while. Any hairstyle with strands of corrugation will sparkle in a new way.

Corrugation goes to almost everyone. On long hair, large and medium-sized waves look better. All kinds of waves can be made on medium length hair. If done very finely, the strands will rise strongly and will seem to look up, which is not entirely desirable. On long and medium-long hair, you can combine waves on different lengths of strands. For short ones, large waves are suitable, which will give the necessary bend.

A large wave can be made at the roots, and a smaller one below. It all depends on the thickness and volume of the hair itself. The main thing is not to make the effect of a poodle.

Corrugation goes both girls with bangs, and without it. After a little training and trying to make different types of waves, it will become clear which one is right for you.

• Use means for thermal protection of hair, of which there are many in stores. They will partially be able to protect the locks from exposure to temperature.
• It is not recommended to do corrugation daily or constantly. The effect of the corrugation lasts quite a long time - until the next shampoo. If the hair is long and heavy, then under the weight of the hair, the strands will align faster. Once a week, not more often, as hairdressers recommend. Otherwise, you risk seriously ruining your hair.
• If you already use the corrugation on an ongoing basis, then you will have to take care of your hair more and more intensively. It is recommended to make hair masks, apply hair oil for the night before washing your hair - to nourish and strengthen it. Naturally, if there is no foam or other styling products on the hair. In this case, you should wash your hair, and only then deal with their strengthening, moisturizing and recovery.

Corrugated strands are created by braiding. Pigtails need to be woven tight to the very bottom of the hair, otherwise the ends of the strands will look messy against the background of the head with waves along the entire length.

At the ends there will be these very pieces of fabric, and the edges of the hair will not differ from their rest pattern created by pigtails.

It is better to weave braids on washed and already almost dried strands. On average, you need to braid 8-10 pigtails. These are general guidelines. It all depends on the thickness and thickness of your hair.

When weaving, keep in mind that the smaller the pigtails, the smaller the waves, and the larger the volume. Therefore, it is recommended to start with a minimum number of braids, and after the first experiment it will become clear whether it is enough, or if you want the effect of smaller bends.

If you have healthy and hydrated heavy strands, then it makes sense to apply a little foam before weaving, so that the effect lasts longer.

If you want to get the effect of hair foam and at the same time treat a little strands, it is useful to use beer instead of foam. The positive strengthening effect of brewer's yeast on hair has long been known.

Ideally, you need to weave for 5-10 hours before going out so that the hairstyle lasts a long time. You can do it at night. Each girl can make such a corrugation, because it is quite simple. At the same time, the image will completely change. Naturally, the braids should be the same size. It is better to divide your head into zones and weave, separating the strands in the zones. Clips can be used to separate zones.

After the required amount of time has passed, the braids should be braided. If the pigtails were large, you can gently comb the strands and lightly sprinkle with varnish.
