Study Notes
Hair Design Techniques
- Unactivated surface texture in hair design is characterized as straight.
- Two areas involved in hair design services are wet design and thermal design.
- Fingerwaves with low ridges are identified as shadow waves.
- The 2-comb technique creates strong ridges, narrow waves, and is effective on tightly curled hair, but does NOT create flat ridges.
Tools and Techniques
- The use of a smaller round brush during air forming results in a curlier style.
- Base-to-ends technique with a curling iron creates volume and consistent curl patterns.
- Always ensure hair is cool before brushing or combing after a thermal procedure.
- Fine hair when pressing requires less heat to prevent damage.
Pressing and Thermal Procedures
- A hard or double press involves applying the pressing comb twice with more pressure and heat.
- For porous, white, or bleached hair, a hot iron should be closed lightly on a damp towel before curling to avoid scorching.
- Rain, humidity, and shampooing typically cause thermally styled hair to return to its original shape.
Accessories and Products
- A diffuser is an attachment for blow dryers that spreads airflow gently over a larger area.
- Pomade is a hairstyling product that creates sleek and smooth finishes.
- Flat irons feature two flat plates, commonly made of ceramic or metal.
Curling and Styling Shapes
- Cylinder rollers are used to create uniform curls within straight shapes.
- Curvature shapes include circle, oval, and oblong.
- A half-circle shape moves hair in equal proportions from a center point, while a half-oval shape moves hair from an off-center point.
Curl Characteristics
- The arc of a curl determines its amount of movement.
- Detailing refers to smaller, refined touches for personalized hairstyles.
Base Controls in Hairstyling
- Off-base indentation results in minimum base strength and maximum curl mobility.
- On base control provides maximum volume and strength.
- Overdirected base control is used for exaggerated volume and direction.
- Half-off base control is utilized for equal degrees of predetermined direction or volume.
Base Size and Tool Usage
- A base size equal to the diameter of the tool is referred to as 1x.
- The diameter of the tool determines the base width in hair design.
Disinfection and Hair Management
- Immersing items in EPA-registered disinfectants applies to combs, rollers, and brushes, but NOT to thermal irons.
- Partings taken during hair pressing should consider the density and texture of the hair.
- Underdirected tool position occurs when the tool sits in the lower portion of the base, not on or below the parting.
