SHAMPOOING

Shampooing the hair is an important preliminary step for various hair treatments. The importance of a good shampoo should not be underestimated. The reputation for good shampooing builds friendly relationships with the patrons and is the foundation for future business. Shampoos are preparations for cleaning the hair and scalp. A shampoo is given both for sanitary reasons and to obtain better results in relation to other hair works. The purpose of a shampoo is to cleanse the hair and scalp. A shampoo to be effective, must remove all dirt, oils, cosmetics present and the skin debris from the scalp and hair shaft, without adversely affecting either the scalp or hair. Unless the scalp and hair are cleansed regularly, the accumulation of oil and perspiration which when mixed with natural scales and dirt offers a breeding place for disease producing bacteria. Permitting this condition to exist can lead to a scalp disorder.

12



Hair should be shampooed as often as necessary depending on how quickly the scalp and hair become soiled.



As a general rule, oily hair should be shampooed more often than normal or dry hair.

SELECTING THE CORRECT SHAMPOO To make an intelligent choice of shampoo, the cosmetologist should know the composition and action of the shampoo and whether it will do an effective job. To obtain this information, carefully read the label and its shampooing literature.

REQUIRED MATERIALS AND IMPLEMENTS Before giving a shampoo, gather all necessary materials and implements. There is nothing more annoying to the patron than to have the hairdresser wet her hair and leave her stranded, while she dashes out to get shampoo or other necessities. Required materials and implements are:      

Neck strip Towels Shampoo cape Comb and hair brush Shampoo Hair rinse

HAIR BRUSHING Brushing should always be a part of both shampoo and scalp treatments with the following exceptions:    

Do Do Do Do

not not not not

brush brush brush brush

before giving a lightening treatment. before the application of tint. before giving a permanent wave. if scalp is irritated.

13

Brushing stimulates the scalp, helps remove dust and dirt from hair and gives added sheen. Stimulation of the scalp, by brushing, helps to normalize the oil glands. The hair should receive thorough brushing whether the scalp and hair is dry or in oily condition. The comb should not be used to loosen scales from the scalp; it should always be used in disentangling the hair. To brush the hair, first part it through the center from front hairline to neck. Now part a section about a quarter inch from the center parting to the crown of the head. Holding this strand of hair in the left hand between the thumb and fingers, lay the brush (held in the right hand) with the bristles against the scalp; sweep the bristles the full length of the hair, turning the wrist slightly in doing so, and sweep to the ends of the hair. Repeat three times. Then part again, a quarter inch from the first parting and continue until the entire head has been brushed.

TOWEL DRYING THE HAIR After a shampooing and rinse, the hair may be towel dried. Remove excess moisture at the shampoo board. Drape towel over the patron’s head. Massage the scalp over the towel with the palm and fingers of both hands in a circular motion until the hair is almost dry. Comb the hair free of snarls, or tangles, starting with the ends of the hair at the back of the head.

DRYING HAIR TO SHAPE AND TO CREATE A FINISHED LOOK Drying Hair Principles Drying hair is the process of styling wet hair while blow-drying it. Using a hand-held dryer, you use a variety of techniques to create different effects. While directing heated air on to the wet hair, you mould the hair with brushes, use a comb or your fingers, and positioning it to fit the style for which you have cut it. Like other methods of setting wet hair, blow styling works by changing 22

the hair structure. While hair is wet, and heat is applied, it can be moulded into a chosen shape. The style is only temporary, though. As the hair gradually absorbs moisture from the atmosphere, it returns to its original shape. Combing styled hair with hot water returns the hair to its natural form straight away. Heat Molding Techniques Heat can be applied to hair in other ways: 

To wave it using irons

  

To curl it using tongs To crimp it using heated crimpers To straighten it using hot combs or hot brushes

Like other methods, these techniques depend on the softening effect of heat. The molded hair must be allowed to cool before it will hold its shape. If you comb through it while it is still warm, you will lose or distort the shape. Hair molded in this way returns to its natural state if combed with hot water. Blow Styling Techniques The technique you choose will be determined by the hair texture, the quality and quantity of hair, the style to be produced and the cut. The most suitable hair for blow styling is firm, thick, and coarse hair. These are additional styling aids –  Thickeners  Setting mousses and gels These are designed to give directions to the hair. Fine and fluffy hair requires the help of one of these if you are to obtain successful results.

23

BLOW – WAVING is shaping the hair into waves, using directed heated air from hair/ dryer, and combs, brushes or your hands. It achieves natural soft fullness. BLOW – DRYING is simply drying the hair with the hand held dryer. It is used to blow dry hair into a chosen shape, or in a required direction. SCRUNCH DRYING is the gripping and squeezing clumps of hair while directing heated air into the hand. The process yields a casual, ruffled, molded shape. FINGER OR HAND DRYING is the lifting pulling and directing hair with the fingers or hands. Casual, soft and full shapes can be achieved. Billowing fullness is perhaps the chief effect. BLOW – COMBING is the drying and shaping using comb, or a comb attachment fixed to the hairdryer. It is a kind of blow drying and achieves shape and direction. BLOW – STRETCHING OR STRAIGHTENING a means of smoothing and unkinking or straightening the hair. A variety of brush shapes and sizes may be used. A blow – style consists of first shampooing the hair, then softening it with a dryer and finally molding it into shape using a blow-dryer. It may be dressed, if required, when the hair has cooled. Natural drying is leaving the hair to dry naturally, depending on whether the cut and the style are suitable. Natural drying maybe assisted by the heat of the sun and wind. EQUIPMENT / TOOLS / PRODUCTS HAND – HELD DRYER is the most important piece of equipment you need. The dryer should have adjustable speeds and temperatures and period of durability. It needs to be light and easy to hold and to have controls positioned for easy reach.

24

Hair Drier

Brushes

Hair drier attachments

Combs

HAND DRYER ATTACHMENTS such as nozzles and diffusers are available. Using the dryer without a nozzle or diffuser allows for a wider directed air flow. COMBS should be professional and heat resistant. The comb you will use should have both widely spaced and narrowly spaced teeth. BRUSHES are probably the most important items after blow dryers. A firm, stiff, bristle or plastic brush is required. This will help you to grip, direct and control the hair.

25

DIFFUSER fits over the end of the hair dryer and distributes an even flow of warm air. It reduces a strong air to flow and is used for finishing styles. It is ideal for producing soft, casual, ruffled natural curl looks. It can be used on various hair lengths. NOZZLE is intended to concentrate the hot air flow on to a specific area. It is ideal for blow-waving as it allows the hair to be directed at the troughs and crests of the wave shapes. STYLING IRONS OR TONGS are often used to finalize a dried hair style. This is an electrically heated unit. The hair is rolled and held in place long enough for the heat to soften the hair. The irons are then slid out to leave a smooth rolled shape, similar to that produced by the rollers. HOT BRUSHES AND HEATED ROLLERS are available in several sizes. They are applied to dried hair in similar manner for styling tongs. STYLING AIDS / PRODUCTS USED IN BLOWDRYING Blow – styling, setting, styling and dressing can be usefully aided by using some of a large variety of products. Most hair cosmetic manufacturers feature them. Some are physically designed to give added support to the hair shapes so as to retain style as long as possible. There are aids available to meet most needs. Product knowledge will help you select the correct one for your client. The aids in the following list may contain:  Plasticizers to enfold and support the hair  Moisturizers to retain or resist moisture  Protective screeners  Silicone shiners 

Sun protectors

Blow styling aids protect the hair from excessive heat, augment the length of time for which the hair shape is held and give body to the hair.

26

There are different hair aid strengths.  Firm hold  Extra hold  Medium hold  Ultra hold  Ultimate hold Dressing aids give sheen, shine, gloss and glitz to the hair. Gels, oils, silicones, mousses, foams and waxes used to reflect light and to enhance a healthy looking shape. Setting aids enhance hair elasticity, help the hair to keep its spring and bounce, and allow it to stretch easily. Protective aids shield the hair from the harsh effects of exposure to the sun. Curl enhances the hair to retain curl or wave formation longer and include perm enhancers. HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN BLOWDRYING 1. Use only professional tools. 2. Ensure that all electrical equipment are in good order. 3. Never use electrical equipment with wet hands – you might be electrocuted. 4. Never use faulty equipment. 5. Work comfortably. Avoid continually twisting or stretching your body. 6. Maintain high standards of hygiene. 7. Test the heat of the dryer before applying it to the hair. You may cause discomfort to your patron or damage to the hair. If the air is too hot for the skin or too hot for the hair. 8. Direct hot air away from the scalp. 9. Do not keep the dryer in one place too long. 10. When straightening, never overstretch the hair. 11. Do not attempt to shape hair when it is too wet. 12. Pulling the hair may cause breakage. 13. Use suitable blow-drying aids to protect hair from overheating. 27

14. Do not blow style hair that is in poor condition. 15. Do not blow dry if the hair is too dry or wet.

LET US REMEMBER    

Letting hair dry naturally is usually not a practical option and doesn’t get the best looking result for your hair. The more you blow dry, the worse the condition of your hair will become. If you have time, keep the dryer o its coolest setting. Excessive heat is a major cause of hair dryness as it makes hair lose its natural oils.

LESSON 1 ASSESS PATRON’S NEEDS WHAT IS THE LESSON ABOUT? This lesson deals with the assessment of the patron’s hair cutting needs, the appropriate reception to be extended, the analysis of the hair condition, texture, density and length, and the proper protective clothing materials to be used.

LET US STUDY Definition of terms: hair stream – the natural direction in which the hair grows after leaving the follicle hair catalogue – a special type of magazine, photo collection of various haircuts and hair styles. Whorl

–

a spiral turn of hair which goes contrary to the usual growth of the hair

Consultation – a meeting between the client and the hairdresser at which advice is given and taken.

Before you touch your client’s hair, she has to be received into the salon. Reception is the point at which she begins her business relationship with you. Ways of addressing the patron   

Greet the patron politely, pleasantly and courteously. Attend to him/her promptly and helpfully. Find time to acknowledge the arrival of another client and assure him/her that he/she will soon be attended to.

Every hairdressing business has to have patrons. The patron’s satisfaction is the salon’s main business. Realizing this is the key to your success. How to assess the patron’s hair cutting needs?     

Discuss with the patron what she wants and expects. Communicate with the patron by listening to what she tells you and understanding what she requires you to do. Examine your patron’s hair to determine its type, texture, color, length, condition and any other important factors that may affect the services requested. Tell your patron the limitations. Persuade her to cut the hair to a style you are sure would suit her. Show hair catalogues or magazines to help and guide the patron in deciding on the style she would choose.

After assessing your patron’s hair cutting needs, you may take the initiative in guiding the client to a decision. Make sure that the patron understands, accepts and agrees with you on the decided haircut style. Reminder:  Never attempt to carry out any haircutting service without the patron’s consent  All information regarding patrons should be handled in strict confidence.  Make sure all the patron’s clothes are covered and all materials are secured. In selecting the proper hairstyle, the hairdressers should take into consideration the condition of the patron’s hair

4

The quality and quantity of hair:     

Shiny, healthy hair is essential for good styling. Hair that is in poor condition and poorly textured never looks good and will not style well. Thin hair is difficult to manage and requires attention. Hair styles which make it appear thicker and fuller are usually best. Very curly hair requires frequent combing. As it is combed the true length becomes apparent. Straight hair, particularly if it is fine textured can be difficult to cut. Very fine, thin hair when wet loses its shape. Use setting aids, so hair thicken and practice styles.

Hair position, proportion and form      

The outline formed by hair in relation to facial shape contributes to the overall effect. Consider the direction and distributions of the hair – its cowlicks, widow’s peaks, hair streams, hair whorls and double crowns. Make allowances for these when cutting particularly when designing the style. It is important that you maintain balance between hair and face to achieve a suitable distribution and shape. The way the hair falls or moves is best seen when the hair is wet. Styling can disguise the form of the hair and its natural position. A hairstyle that follows the natural fall and growth retain its shape longer. Cutting nape whorl too short produces difficulties; the hair may stick out in all directions.

Fine hair Fine hair like silk is delicate and responds to products more quickly than other textures. It hangs flat and lies close to the head, looking thin despite the thickness. Try shorter and blunt cuts to add fullness. Layers can make thin hair look thinner; you may use gel to add volume at the roots. Coarse hair Coarse hair is like linen, each strand is strong and thick. It appears wiry in humid conditions and looks dull even after washing.

Let us Remember   

27

Glass – bead sterilizer is a small electrically-heated unit which contains glass beads; these transfer heat to objects placed in contact with them. This method is suitable for small tools such as tweezers and scissors.

Autoclaving is the most effective method for sterilizing objects in the salon. Water is boiled in an auto clave (similar to a pressure cooker), the water reaches a temperature of 121 – 134 ◦c. If an object cannot be sterilized, it should be placed in a chemical disinfectant solution such as quaternary ammonium compounds or glutaraldehyde. An antiseptic prevents the multiplication of microorganisms. It is milder than a disinfectant and it does not kill all micro-organism.

28

Sterilization Techniques     

Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines on the use of sterilizing unit. Select the appropriate method of sterilization for the object. Clean the object in clean water and detergent to remove dirt and grease. Dirt left on the object may prevent effective sterilization. Dry it thoroughly with a clean, disposable paper towel. Place tools that have been sterilized in a clean covered container.

Disposal of waste Waste should be disposed in an enclosed waste bin, durable enough to resist tearing. The bin should be regularly sanitized with disinfectant in a wellventilated area. Contaminated waste should be disposed of as recommended by local authority. Used razor blades and similar items should be placed into a safe container. When the container is full, it can be discarded.

Washing surfaces All surfaces within the salon should be washed at least once each day. They can be cleansed with hot water and detergent. Don’t use abrasives as these will scratch plastic surfaces. Glass mirrors should be cleaned every morning before clients arrive. Glass surfaces should be cleaned and polished using either hot water or detergent or a spirit based lotion that evaporates quickly.

These are the most important tool in hair cutting Choose the size of the scissors that best suit the size of your hand. This will help to cut hair neatly, quickly and efficiently. The best way is to hold the pair of scissors with the thumb through one handle and the third through the other.

Razors.

Modern counter parts pf scissors are called hair shapes. The modern razor llike hair shapes has a replaceable blade and a protective handle. With the opened handle. The back of the guarded blade is held by the thumb between the pivot and the tang. The two middle fingers rest and the tang, an either side of the handle.

11

Thinning scissors. May be held in the same way as cutting scissors Clippers. Hand clippers are operated by pushing the handles together while electric clippers are operated by a motor. The distance between the blade points and the spacing of the teeth determines how closely the hair can be cut.

Combs. Suitable for cutting are thin and pliable comb, with both fine and coarse teeth. Fine teeth allow the hair to be controlled and closely cut. Coarse teeth allow for repeated combing and positioning of the hair. Mirrors. These are useful while cutting the patron’s hair so that the shape can clearly be seen over the shoulder around the neck and remain firmly in position Cutting collars. Placed over the shoulders, around the neck, and remain firmly in position.

LET US STUDY Definition of Terms Patron the person who receives beauty services Coarse scratchy, wiry and with harsh feeling Stretch ability to expand, extend and elongate Springy flexible, resilience, bounce Abrasion scraping of the skin Perming is the term given to the physical and chemical processing of straight hair that will change it into curls or waves. Throughout history, people have experimented with their hair in attempt to make themselves more beautiful. Advantages of Cold Perming 1. Relatively inexpensive. 2. Employs no heat and is given at room temperature. Cosmetologists and chemists have contributed many improvements to produce the cold perming methods in use today. For best results, the cosmetologist should follow the manufacturer’s directions. Today, cold perming is the accepted method of permanently perming nearly all types of hair. Exceptions are persons who maybe allergic to the perming lotion and those whose hairs do not take a cold perm satisfactorily.

3

BASIC REQUIREMENTS To give a successful cold perm, the cosmetologist must have a thorough understanding of the following:         

Hair and Scalp Analysis Curling rods and chemicals Hair sectioning patterns Hair blocking and wrapping Applying perming lotion Processing Test curls Neutralizing Safety measures

SCALP AND HAIR ANALYSIS A very important step before giving a cold perm is to make a careful and correct analysis of the patron’s scalp and hair condition. SCALP EXAMINATION The scalp should be examined very carefully. Abrasions on the scalp can make cold perming dangerous to a patron. An irritated scalp or badly damaged hair are both signs that cold perming should be postponed until the condition is corrected. HAIR POROSITY Porosity is the ability of the hair to absorb fluids or liquids. The porosity of the hair determines how quickly the perm lotion is absorbed. The processing time for any cold perm depends much more on hair porosity than upon any other factor. The more porous the hair, the less processing time it takes, and a milder perming solution is required. The hair absorbs the cold perming lotion in relation to its porosity, regardless of texture. HAIR TEXTURE Hair texture refers to the individual size of the hair strand and its degree of coarseness or fineness. The texture and porosity are judged together in determining the processing time. For hair of medium texture, use perm lotion of normal strength. Fine hair curls more easily and requires weaker lotion; coarse hair is harder to wave and requires stronger lotion.

4

HAIR ELASTICITY Hair elasticity is the ability of the hair to stretch and contract. Without elasticity, there will be no curl on the hair. The greater the degree of elasticity the longer the wave will remain in the hair, because less relaxation of the hair occurs. HAIR DENSITY scalp.

Hair density is the amount of hair strands per square inch on the

Smaller blockings and larger rods are often required for thickly growing hair. If the hair is thin, per square inch, smaller blocking sections and smaller rods are required in order to form a good wave pattern close to the head. Avoid large blockings on a thin hair growth. HAIR LENGTH Long heavy hair requires more perming than short hair because the hair’s weight will pull on the curls. Short, fine hair may become too tightly curled if given the normal processing time. RECONDITIONING TREATMENTS Reconditioning treatments for previously treated hair must be determined. Dry, brittle or damaged hair which was previously treated, should be given reconditioning treatment prior to cold hair perming. Recent developments in conditioners have proven to be beneficial to the hair. Avoid any treatment requiring massage or heat just prior to a cold wave. Such treatment would create a sensitive scalp. Permanent waving, tinted, bleached or damaged hair can be a problem. It is very important to analyze the hair properly. PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES These precautionary measures should be observed if previous treatments are applied on the hair prior to cold wave: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Always use a pre-perm conditioner. Use a mild shampoo before perming. Use a mild cold wave lotion. Make a test as often as necessary. There is no room for error. Frequent checking is very important. All color treated hair will have a degree of discoloration after perm.

5

PREPARING AND PLANNING THE PERM For the patron, perming is a major step whose result she will have to live with for several months. She may not be familiar with the perm available. The operator should explain to the patron what perm is the most suitable to her.         

Explain that a cold perm is designed to curl straight hair. Consider the style with respect to the patron’s age and lifestyle. Examine scalp closely if: there are signs of inflammation, disease, cut skin; and there is excessive grease or lacquer. Shampoo the patron’s hair. Select the correct perm lotion. Always read manufacturer’s direction carefully. Fill up in details the patron’s record card. Take note of the decided style and cost involved to prevent misunderstanding. Minimize combing and brushing the hair.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING There are several ways in which the patron maybe draped for a cold perm. The comfort of the patron, adequate protection of person and her clothing are important during the entire procedure. One way to drape patron is to place a small folded towel around the patron’s neck, fasten the shampoo cape over it, then place another towel over the cape. Fasten the towel securely with safety pin or clip.

LET US REMEMBER       

Wash hands with soap and water. Hairdresser should wear a smock gown. Drape the patron with clean towel around the shoulders, on top of it is a shoulder cape. Prepare materials in accordance with salon policies. Check and analyze the hair and scalp. Check patron’s perming history to determine possible chemical reaction. Provide with personal protective clothing.

HOW MUCH HAVE YOU LEARNED? Give a brief answer to the following questions. 1. How do you prepare the patron before perming? 2. Why is it necessary to examine scalp for abrasions? 3. How should the hairdresser’s hands be protected in cold perming?

Rods control the shape of the hair shaft during the cold wave process. They vary in diameter, length, composition and design. Diameter – the distance through the center of the rod. Circumference – the distance around the rod. The circumference determines the size of the wave or curl formation. Rod lengths are available in long, medium, short and very short sizes.

12

RODS ARE GENERALLY CLASSIFIED AS ILLUSTRATED BELOW

CHEMICALS USED IN HAIR PERMING THIOGLYCOLIC ACID, maybe present in a cold waving lotion. The presence of the latter in a cold wave lotion gives it an alkaline reaction. Other materials included maybe lanolin and its derivatives, wetting agents, solutions of proteins and hair conditioners of various types. WAVING LOTIONS vary in strength. They are available in both one bottle or two bottle applications. ONE-BOTTLE APPLICATION. The lotion begins the softening action as soon as it is applied. The action slows down as the lotion evaporates. The action is speeded up when the lotion is reapplied to saturate the hair. Good workmanship and a reasonable amount of speed is essential. CAUTION: Avoid interruption during a one-bottle application. AVOID INTERRUPTION DURING A ONE-BOTTLE APPLICATION TWO-BOTTLE APPLICATION. One bottle contains a lotion with special ingredients to protect, equalize the porosity and strengthen the hair shaft. It is applied prior to winding of the hair. A second bottle contains the waving lotion and is used to saturate the hair.

13

NEUTRALIZERS Neutralizer is a chemical used to stop the action of the waving lotion and rehardens the hair cells into their new form. After the hair has assumed the desired shape, it is chemically neutralized. Conditioners are often incorporated with the prepared neutralizer to impart luster and give some protection to the hair. SECTIONING AND BLOCKING OF THE HAIR Sectioning is dividing the hair into uniform areas. Uniform wave patterns depend on:    

Uniformly arranged sections Equally subdivided sections Clean and uniform partings Blockings which should be about ½ inch shorter than the rod length.

Blocking is a term usually used to designate the subdividing of the hair sections. This is done as each portion is wound around the rod. The size of the blockings is determined by the diameter of the rods the density and the texture of the hair. Thickly growing hair requires smaller blockings and larger rods to permit better arrangement for a wave pattern. Thin hair requires smaller blockings and smaller rods to prevent strain or breakage and to form a good wave pattern close to the head. The average blockings for a standard wave pattern should be slightly wider than the rod being used. Usually the blockings are smaller at the nape of the neck. CAUTION: If too much hair is wound around the rod or wound too tight, neither the waving lotion nor the neutralizer will penetrate, resulting in an uneven wave formation.

14

SECTIONING AND BLOCKING PATTERN

WINDING AND WRAPPING THE HAIR To form a uniform wave, with strong ridge, hair must be wrapped smoothly and neatly on each rod without stretching. Hair is not stretched due to the fact that the penetration of waving lotion causes the hair to expand. Tight wrapping or stretching interferes with this expansion and prevents the penetration of the lotion or may cause hair breakage. Correctly centered rods prevent possible scalp irritation and permit a wrap closer to the scalp.

CAUTION: When wrapping hair, always prevent bulkiness on the rod. Bulkiness prevents the formation of a good curl because the hair cannot conform to the shape of the rods

15

PROCEDURE FOR SINGLE FLAT WRAP

16

PROCEDURE FOR A DOUBLE FLAT WRAP

Hair end protection. Porous end papers are used to insure smooth wrapping and to prevent distorting the circle formation. TEST CURLS Test curls help to determine in advance how the patron’s hair will react to the cold waving process. A pre-permanent test curl gives the cosmetologist information on how best to protect the patron’s hair and how to obtain the best possible results. Regular testing enables the cosmetologist to observe the reaction of the hair as to:    

Speed of the wave formation Overall picture of wave formation Exact time when peak of wave formation has been reached Resistant areas.

TEST CURL WAVE DEVELOPMENT METHOD After the hair has been shampooed, wrap two or three curls on the upper back of the head. Each curl is given a complete treatment being timed and examined according to manufacturer’s directions. Use a different type of waving lotion on each test curl to determine best results. After neutralizing and rinsing the curls, judge and record the results.

17

Test curl wave development method is the part of the processing phase of a cold wave. Each head of hair is different. Conditions vary, even on the same head of hair. A patron’s hair will not always process the same length of time with its permanent wave. Neither will one type of wave always process in the same length of time on every head. Wave Development should be tested: 1. 2. 3.

immediately after the last rod is secured; following the re-wet application; and every 30 seconds thereafter until wave formation occurred.

Analysis of Test Curl 1. 2. 3. 4.

5.

Thoroughly blot the waving solution from the curl to be tested. Loosen the rod fastener. Unwind rod 1 ½ turns. Do not let the hair become loose or unravel on the rod. Hold it firmly with thumbs touching the rod. Unwind without pulling on the strands. Since the hair is in softened condition, pulling or stretching the strand will spoil the test. Push the rod slightly toward the scalp, with the thumbs holding the hair firm. Permit the hair to relax into a wave pattern without pushing or pulling at it. rewind the test curl

Continue testing for wave development at regular intervals. Test on different areas of the head each time. Do not use the same curl for retesting.

Unwinding hair without pulling

Push rod slightly toward scalp

18

APPLICATION OF WAVING LOTION If the hair is being wound with waving lotion, apply the lotion ½ inch from the scalp. Extend it to about one inch from the hair ends. Comb the lotion through the strand. Comb from underneath with an upward motion, thereby distributing the lotion evenly throughout the hair strand. Use about one fourth of the lotion n winding the entire head. This assures that the hair is moistened with the lotion, not thoroughly saturated. Moistening the hair with the lotion, only for the wrapping procedure, the action slows down. Then the hair on the rods must be rewet or saturated to start the process again, this is the rewet procedure. The additional lotion assures complete penetration into the hair shaft. REMEMBER 

Always follow the manufacturers directions for winding and applying the waving lotion.



The cosmetologist should wear protective gloves to cover hands to protect the skin from chemical injury.

CAUTION:    

DO NOT LEAVE THE PATRON ALONE WHILE PROCESSING THE HAIR. DO NOT INTERRUPT THE REWET STEP. DO NOT PERMIT THE NOZZLE OF THE APPLICATOR BOTTLE TO DRAG ACROSS THE ROD WHILE SATURATING. IF THE LOTION GETS INTO THE PATRON’S EYES, RINSE IMMEDIATELY WITH WATER. 19

APPLICATOR BOTTLE A plastic bottle with nozzle top makes the most efficient applicator. It dispenses liquid freely yet with good control. Bottles should be absolutely clean before filling with perming lotion. Leftover traces of neutralizer will weaken the action of the waving lotion. PROCESSING TIME Processing time is the length of time required for the hair strands to absorb the waving lotion and complete the total rearrangement of the hair cells around the rod. Processing time varies due to:        

lotion; hair texture; hair porosity; hair length; hair condition; atmospheric conditions; patron’s body heat; and working speed of the cosmetologist.

WAVE PATTERN FORMATION As the hair is processing, the wave has reached its peak when it forms a firm letter “S.” The size of the rod used determines the size of the “S” pattern. The “S” pattern reaches a peak only once. It does not re-form again. Beyond this point the hair is over-processed and damaged.

OVER AND UNDER PROCESSED HAIR RESULT

NEUTRALIZATION OF THE HAIR

20

The waving lotion produces the curl formation by rearranging the cells of the hair shaft into a new alignment. The rods hold the hair in this formation until it is “hardened” or “fixed” by neutralization. METHODS OF NEUTRALIZATION There are three methods of application of neutralizers in general use: 1. Applicator method. The neutralizer comes prepared and has a thicker consistency than other types. It is applied with an applicator bottle and can be done away from the shampoo bowl. Some manufacturers refer to this type of application as an instant method. 2. Self-lathering method. Due to its shampoo content, this type of neutralizer cleanses away the waving lotion. It is also applied with an applicator bottle. This is another of the so-called instant methods. 3. Splash or pour-over method. This is a diluted solution, using neutralizer mixed with water as per manufacturer’s directions. It must be applied at the shampoo bowl. Thorough application is absolutely necessary for good results. It is sometimes referred to as the conventional method. REMINDER: Correct processing time can spell difference between success and failure in cold waving

28

AFTER AND FINAL CARE OF A PERMED HAIR The after–care of the patron’s cold wave helps to keep the hair in the best possible condition. Reconditioning treatments for patrons also have a place in the after–care of a cold wave and between cold waves. It includes regular hair care, as follows 1. Shampoo hair weekly with proper shampoo and rinse. 2. Use proper hair conditioner as directed by the manufacturer. 3. Comb and brush the hair daily. Use type of brush best suited to the hair. 4. Avoid excessive brushing or combing in the wrong direction. 5. Have the patron’s hair trimmed and styled at regular intervals in order to make the hairstyle more serviceable. CARING FOR PERMED HAIR After having a perm your hair will be much drier. You will need to condition your hair after every shampoo, and use conditioning oil treatment once a week. Avoid over brushing or blow drying for at least once a week after the perm, as the heat may cause the hair to snap and split. Avoid heated tongs and rollers for the same reason. For maximum cure, leave your hair to dry naturally after washing and conditioning. AFTER THE PERM 

Check the results of perming.  Has the scalp been irritated by the perm lotion?  Is the hair in good condition?  Is the curl even?



Dry the hair into style.  Depending on the effect you want, you may now use finger drying, hood drying or blow drying.  Treat the hair gently. If you handle it too firmly the perm may relax again.



Advise the patron on how to manage the perm at home.  The hair should not be shampooed for a day or two.  The manufacturer of the perm lotion may have supplied information to be passed to the patron.  Discuss general hair care with your patron. 29



Clean all tools thoroughly so that they are ready for the next patron.



Complete the patron’s record card. Note details of the type of person, the strength of the waving lotion, the processing time, the curler sizes, and the winding technique. Record any problems you have had. This information will be useful if the hair is permed again.

WAVING TOOLS AND PRODUCTS STORED ACCORDING TO SALON POLICIES Waving tools such as combs, brushes, curlers, and so forth are made from plastics. These materials are relatively easy to keep hygienically safe, if they are used and cleaned properly in getting ready for the next patron. Combs should be washed frequently. When not in use they should be immersed into an antibacterial solution. When needed they can be rinsed and dried and are then ready for use. Discard empty bottles and containers in a covered trash bin. Wave products which were unused should be thrown and discarded in the washing vessel if its liquid. Don’t bring them back in the original container. Arrange them in the cabinet in the order of use. Read labels carefully. LET US REMEMBER After having a perm proper hair care must be undertaken:  You need to condition the hair after every shampoo.  Use a conditioning oil treatment once a week.  Avoid over brushing and combing the newly permed hair.  Avoid blow drying for at least a week after the perm as the heat may cause hair to split.  Leave your hair to dry naturally after washing and conditioning.

It is an important part of all that you do for the patron in the salon. It involves concern for your patron, and genuinely wanting to meet all his/her needs satisfactorily. Patron’s care means looking after his/her safety and making sure that he/she is comfortable, satisfied with the service and safely attended. This begins when the client/patron enters the salon and continues until he/she leaves. For patron’s care to be fully attended to, an initial consultation is essential. This applies to both new and regular patrons. 3

Consultation A consultation is a meeting at which advice is given and taken, consists of talking to the patron, listening to her so that you can consider her needs and jointly negotiating a suitable course of action. You will be expected to exchange views with her, and to discuss with her just what is to be done with her hair. TIPS   

Good client care starts with careful consultation. Record all client information. Ensure that it is easy to retrieve.

Patrons expect the salon to be clean. They expect that good hygiene is maintained. There are various kinds of hair and scalp treatment, the two most common kinds are: Hair Spa – a component of hair and scalp treatment that contains curative mineral /spring water that relaxes hair, making it relieved from any form of hair tension Hair Reborn – a hair treatment given to maintain its healthy condition that brings hair back to its normal desired condition Hot Oil Treatment – a hair treatment is given to patron who suffers dry and brittle hair to prevent the occurrence of split ends Ask the patron which hair and scalp treatment he/she prefers, as this may need different kinds of materials and treatment products to be used.

Preparing Hair and Scalp Hair needs to be free from tangles.     

Loose the hair apart with your fingers. Using a wide-toothed comb, start combing the hair, upward to the scalp. Remove tangles without pulling, scratching or breaking the comb. Brush and comb hair smoothly without jerking the patron’s head. Check on the scalp for abrasions or blemishes.

PREPARING TOOLS / EQUIPMENT Choose a comb that is unbroken, flexible, well balanced, nonflammable, resistant to chemicals, and easy to clean. It should have widely spaced teeth, and have no mould marks or sharp edges. Use only good quality tools to avoid damaging the hair and apply them gently and correctly. A good brush will penetrate and grip the hair and allow you to place the hair where you want it. LET US REMEMBER      

Patron’s care is essential to your success as a hairdresser. Patron’s care is looking after his/her and making sure that she is comfortable, satisfied with the service and safely attended.
