- Waving lotion, often made from karaya gum sourced from trees in Africa and India, helps maintain hair shape.
Hair Waving Application
- Too much waving lotion results in overly wet hair that drips.
- Vertical finger waves feature ridges running up and down; horizontal waves have ridges parallel to the head.
- Waving lotion should be applied to damp hair, beginning at the hairline, followed by combing through sections.
Pin Curls Fundamentals
- Pin curls form the basis for various hairstyle patterns including waves and rolls.
- Curls can be classified as open center (smooth uniform waves) or closed center (waves tapering towards ends).
- Three parts of a pin curl: base, stem, and circle.
Pin Curl Variations
- Types of curls based on placement and mobility:
- No-stem: tight curls with minimal movement.
- Half-stem: medium movement and control.
- Full-stem: greatest mobility, allowing freedom of curl styling.
- Shapes of pin curl bases include rectangular, triangular, arc, and square.
Techniques and Tools
- For wet sets using rollers:
- Essential tools include clips, conditioning agents, finishing products, hood dryer, and various roller sizes.
- The process starts with draping the client and ensuring sections taken match roller size.
Styling Techniques
- Backcombing integrates small combing motions to create volume, while backbrushing blends curl patterns smoothly.

- After hair is wrapped, secure it with a neck strip or hairnet for support during drying.
- For dry hair, wrapping time is approximately 17 minutes; wet hair requires around 45 minutes to one hour under a hooded dryer.
Finishing Touches
