Fashion for style and hairstyles is very fickle andchanges, as a rule, annually. But curvy locks are not subject to fashion, thanks to the fact that this image adds to women romanticism, femininity and sexuality. You can twist hair on curlers every day, but it takes a lot of time and effort. It is for those women who do not have too much free time, that the version of the perm is suitable, in which the curls will hold, depending on the type of waving from two to six months. 
Varieties of a perm
A perm has several varieties. The most popular of them is the American, which provides beautiful, curvy and large curls. Perform it by alternately fixing strands on large curlers. The length does not matter much, but most effectively, such a perm looks at a medium-length haircut. Another type of curl is traditional curlers. Today, manufacturers produce curlers of varying thickness, which allows you to choose the amount of curl to your taste. It is recommended to moisten wet locks with a mousse or gel of strong fixation beforehand, screw them on curlers and dry with a hair dryer. Vertical wave will suit those who have a suitable length. But the curls are, as a rule, not large, because most often they use long and thin curlers. Silk wave - a kind of curl with a medium-hard curl, which is ideal for medium or slightly below average length. Of the most gentle methods of perm, an acid is extracted, which can be done even after painting or melioration. The disadvantage of this method is short-term and inability to use those who have sensitive scalp or dry and brittle hair. If you want large and beautiful curls, then a good option is a biocoal. In the solution for such a wave there is neither ammonia, nor thioglycolic acid, nor hydrogen peroxide. Hair looks healthy, and curls - natural, and all thanks to a drug similar to the molecule of hair that is part of the solution. Alkaline perm is suitable for most types of hair and is also considered to be gentle. This type of wave lasts about three months, but if the hair is hard, heavy or straight, then the stamina will decrease to two months. The radical wave is a separate type of chemical wave, which is less popular than the rest. With this technique, the border of unconcerned and curled hair is visible, and it does not last long. Most often this form is used by women with thin hair as a basis for further styling. 
How to prepare hair for a curl so that beautiful and healthy curls turn out?
A perm will look beautiful and notrepresent a danger to the condition of the hair, if properly prepared for this procedure. Primary is the verification of idiosyncrasy (checking the skin for hypersensitivity). Although among modern drugs for curling such reactions are very rare, it is not worth neglecting this procedure. For the sample, select a hypersensitive area of the skin (the inside of the hand on the bend, behind the earlobe, etc.) and apply a piece of cotton wool soaked in the solution to it. They keep cotton for as long as the perm. Then this place is washed and moistened with a fixation solution for several minutes. If all is well, proceed to the next stage of preparation. Hair assessment is something without which no hairdresser should start the process. It is necessary to take into account individual features, structure, and also their condition. With the right assessment, the wave will be elastic and resistant, which characterizes the work of the wizard only from the best side. To get a large curl, you need certain conditions. Hair should not be thin, as they are kept on them large curls will not. Their condition determines the duration of the waving process and what preparations will be used and in what concentrations. Soft, thin or dyed hair is more susceptible to chemical composition than thick and hard. Hence the estimated time for which the desired result should be obtained. The first type will need less time and less concentration, and the second, respectively, more time and higher concentration of the composition. Further - washing. When washing the head, do not massage or rub the skin. The slightest damage to it will be reflected by unpleasant sensations during the process. Also, do not use a shampoo that dries the scalp. Some hair, on the contrary, shows oily formulations for washing before curling. A haircut. The quality of the wave itself largely depends on the haircut and how the curls will later settle down. Gradual transition from sections of the same length to sections of other lengths is a prerequisite, since only with the right haircut do you get soft strands. As a result - an elastic wave with a natural effect. With such a haircut it will be easy to wind strands, which is impossible with a sharp difference in length. With a careful haircut and well-made filing hair is untwisted correctly, which makes the curls springy and elastic. Especially important professionally performed filing, if the hair is thin. In this case, it is the basis of the hairstyle. Naturally, the success of a perm is influenced in many ways by the length of the hair. The thinner, the shorter they should be. The hardest to twist the long hair and thin, but if they are both long and thin, the chemical wave is ineffective or generally inconclusive. Long and stiff hair is also difficult to curl, beginning with a certain length, since it is difficult to process and fix the strands. A short haircut, especially on the back of the neck, also complicates the winding of strands. Therefore, after making the decision to make a chemical wave, you need to take care of the length at which the best result will be obtained.
The technology of wave
Chemical perm has a certain influence onstructure of hair, therefore the quality of such a procedure is of great importance. The fact is that the chemical acts on the hair, the flakes unfold and the elasticity is lost. It is at this moment that a lush, beautiful and large curl is formed. But now fixation is needed for stability. Special solutions are used for this. At the time of this fixation, the bonds within the hair are restored, the scales are closed and the keratin becomes elastic and durable.

Also for this reason do not recommend the use of metal objects. Before waving it is necessary to wash your hair well and dry it. The hair is divided into straight strands with a width corresponding to the size of the bobbin. A sponge, impregnated with the composition of the solution, is wetted with a strand, but not all. Typically, the solution is applied to the tips or to a third thereof. Then the wetted strand winds smoothly, without any bends on the bobbin. When all the hair is screwed, they need to be impregnated with a waving compound and put on a warming hood or just a cellophane bag. Keep as long as indicated on the package. If you overexpose, then there is a danger of splitting the hair and scalp, if not hold, then the curls may not catch or become weak. Then, after the end of the aging period, you need to check the strand. If the curls are strong and elastic, you need to move to fixation, if weak, still hold for a while. Fixing is applied to the hair, previously washed, and after that you can untwist the strands and rinse them again with warm water. The length of the curling at home depends on how you have your arm. For the first time it may take a lot of time, but in all the subsequent you will be able to cope much faster.

You can even refresh the tips with the help of an ordinary haircut or a haircut with hot scissors. Nutritional masks for hair, especially moisturizers, are also useful. But they often are not recommended for use. Avoid direct exposure to ultraviolet light, use as little as possible a hairdryer and use a comb with sparse denticles.
