Hot scissors at home

Beautiful and well-groomed hair is the dream of every representative of the fairer sex. Poor ecology, poor quality food, high workload at work and constant stress lead not only to the appearance of various diseases, but also to the deterioration of the skin, hair and nails. This problem is especially acute in the winter, when the body lacks vitamins, sunlight and oxygen, and the dry air of the heated rooms makes the hair weak, brittle and lifeless. The solution to this problem is to use a set of measures, one of which is cutting with hot scissors.

The presence of split ends is not only a sign of a lack of vitamins, but also a symptom of such a dangerous disease as trichoptilosis. Ignoring this problem can lead to delamination of the cuticle and the disappearance of keratin. The mechanical way to solve this problem is to seal the ends with hot scissors. Such a haircut is performed using scissors with hot blades.

For many decades, women used ordinary iron scissors for this procedure, which were heated over an open fire. Modern equipment and innovative technologies have enabled manufacturers to develop and manufacture a new generation of goods - electric hot scissors that have a temperature control sensor. This function is mandatory and makes it possible to choose the temperature regime depending on the type of hair.

To prevent the occurrence of thermal burns, the handle of the device is covered with thermal overlays. The high price of medical procedures in beauty salons increasingly makes fashionistas resort to self-cutting hair at home. The main condition is the availability of a professional tool and professional skills. Not everyone can make a quality haircut with a hot tool. The main indicators of the condition of the hair, which indicate the need for the use of this type of haircut:

• section;
• dropping out;
• fragility;
• dryness;
• dullness.

Like any cosmetology procedure, this haircut has its advantages and disadvantages. Among the main advantages, experts distinguish the following:

• strengthening the structure of curls;
• the ability to apply for any type of hair;
• prevention of leaching of keratin;
• the possibility of use with nodular disease;
• permissible combination with other cosmetic procedures;
• creating a lush and dense hairstyle;
• the ability to carry out a haircut at any age and during pregnancy;
• prevention of split ends;
• prevention of loss of strands.

Disadvantages:

• duration of the procedure;
• the impossibility of holding a very short haircut;
• prevents dissection only at the sealing site;
• the availability of special tools and professional experience;
• the inability to solder along the entire length;
• high price.

The effect of this procedure on the condition of curls:

• lack of fluff;
• reduction in the number of double ends;
• a feeling of softness and airiness of the hairstyle;
• lack of confusion of curls.

For this procedure, you need to purchase special scissors. On the shelves of specialized departments you can see two types of these products.

• Stationary - a classic hairdresser tool that works from the mains and has 3 temperature settings. The standard length of the power cord is 3 meters.
• Mobile - A new model of the device that runs on battery power. The device is controlled by a computer apparatus.

Specialists distinguish two methods of thermal cutting:

• creating a fashionable haircut;
• sealing tips.

There are 3 ways to eliminate cut ends.

• Harnesses - soldering hair along the entire length. Technology of carrying out - drying by the hair dryer of the locks of the hair twisted in plaits. Under the action of the air flow, the damaged hairs are raised and their subsequent trimming.
• In shape - removal of split ends in the process of creating a haircut.
• Along the contour - creating edging along the entire length of the hair.

Before starting the procedure, it is necessary to determine the condition of the hair and, according to this indicator, select the temperature regime.

Professional hairdressers distinguish 3 hair conditions:

• weak and thin;
• healthy
• thick and tough.

Haircuts of the first type of hair should be carried out at a temperature of no more than 110 degrees. The maximum temperature for normal hair should not exceed 140 degrees. For the third type of strands, the temperature can be increased to 150 degrees. To carry out the procedure yourself, you must have the following set of tools:

• hot scissors;
• cloak;
• water spray;
• stationary mirror.

The haircut procedure consists of the following steps:

• hair condition diagnostics - the most accurate information can be obtained by computer analysis of the hair shaft;
• harness formation and cutting;
• the final creation of the image of a new hairstyle.

Shearing with hot scissors should be carried out in the following sequence:

• warming up an electrical appliance;
• separation of hair strands with the help of small elastic bands;
• twisting harnesses and cutting off split ends;
• device shutdown;
• conducting shampooing with the use of special shampoo and balm.

Care for clipped hair does not have special recommendations. Experts advise to follow simple rules:

• regular use of this method;
• complete drying of the curls before bedtime;
• drinking large amounts of water;
• use of a balanced diet;
• the use of quality cosmetics without parabens;
• regular use of firming balms and moisturizing masks;
• use only purified warm water with a soft structure;
• rinsing hair with water at room temperature;
• the use of cosmetic products in strict accordance with the type of hair;
• combing only dry curls;
• natural drying of hair without hard towel drying;
• use of ionization mode when working with a hairdryer;
• regular rinsing of hair with various herbal decoctions;
• taking special vitamin complexes that contribute to the healing of the hair shaft and bulb.

Experienced craftsmen recommend abandoning irons, pads and straighteners, and use a hairdryer only at low temperatures. Hair coloring and curling should be done before cutting hair with hot scissors, which subsequently will help improve the hair structure of exposed chemicals. The hot scissor shearing procedure has a similar end result with expensive procedures such as lamination, pyrophoresis, polishing and biolamination.

Hair care is a daily work that will help keep hair healthy and beautiful throughout life. If there is a problem of split ends, it is imperative to seek the help of a specialist who will select a range of therapeutic measures. Performing cosmetic procedures for hot hair cutting in beauty salons is an expensive pleasure that not all women can afford. An alternative solution to the problem may be to invite a specialist home. It is strictly forbidden, without professional skills, to use hot scissors on your own.
