Study Notes

Wet Styling Techniques

  • Wet styling involves manipulating hair into desired shapes while wet, then allowing it to dry.
  • Fingerwaving is a technique used to shape hair into graceful waves.

Fingerwave Mechanics

  • Fingerwaves are created using two interconnected oblong shapes, linked by a ridge.
  • Shadow waves are characterized by low ridges.

Pincurls Overview

  • Pincurls, also known as sculpture curls, are a method to temporarily change hair's direction and texture.
  • Key components of a pincurl include the base, stem (or arc), and circle.

Pincurl Components

  • The base is the area at the scalp between partings within a shape.
  • The stem indicates the curl direction and movement.
  • The circle forms the curl; its size determines the wave's width and strength.

Types of Pincurls

  • Common types of pincurls: flat, volume, and indentation.
  • Flat pincurls create closeness and result in a no-stem curl.
  • Volume pincurls add fullness and height, also known as stand up or cascade pincurls.
  • Indentation pincurls create space and flair, often resulting in flips.

Pincurl Base Shapes

  • Base shapes include triangle, square/rectangle, and crescent.
  • Triangle shapes are used on straight shapes and hairlines.
  • Square/rectangle shapes are utilized within overall square styles.
  • Crescent shapes work well in curves like circles and oblongs.

Base Control Techniques

  • The tool's diameter influences the base width.
  • Half off base (half base) involves holding hair 90 degrees from the center and rolling it to the bottom parting.
  • On base (full base) has hair held at 45 degrees above the center, rolled to the center.
  • Off base entails holding hair 45 degrees below the center, rolling it below the bottom.
  • Underdirected holds hair at 90 degrees from the base and rolls it to the lower part.
  • Overdirected (volume base) is when hair is held at 45 degrees above, rolled to the upper part.

Effects of Base Control

  • On base yields maximum volume and strength.
  • Half off base provides moderate volume and strength.
  • Off base results in the least volume and strength.
  • Underdirected reduces volume and strength.
  • Overdirected increases volume but reduces base strength.

Pincurl Movement and Styling

  • Texture character refers to various wave patterns, including curls and crimped textures.
  • Indentation is defined as hollowness between regions of volume.
  • "Relaxing the set" integrates bases using cushion brushes near the scalp.

Additional Styling Techniques

  • Rollers serve to set hair and achieve effects similar to pincurls.
  • Skip waves combine finger waves and flat pincurls.
  • Ridge curls consist of an oblong followed by pincurls.

Adjusting Patterns and Effects

  • The size of the circle in curls affects wave width and strength; smaller circles create tighter, stronger waves.
  • Closed circle pincurls yield smaller, stronger waves, offering fluffiness.
  • Flat pincurls are chosen for closeness in hairstyles.
  • The stem defines the amount of movement in each pincurl.

Base Control Applications

  • Half off base achieves balanced direction and volume.
  • On base produces lift and strong curls.
  • Overdirected results in curls positioned in the upper part of the base.
  • Underdirected places curls in the lower part of the base.

Special Characteristics

  • Indentation curls initiate from the concave end of a shape.
  • Off-base pincurls create closeness and mobility while reducing volume.
  • Skip waves result from combining flat pincurls and fingerwaves.
  • The hollow of a fingerwave is termed a recess.
