Types of hair curls: which perm will give curls elasticity and hair strength?

Curling was already known in Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Rome. Metal rods heated on a brazier and clay were used in the work. And the fashion circles of 18th century Europe knew firsthand what it means to wind your hair on red-hot nails.


Perming

But the famous perm appeared only at the beginning of the 20th century. However, the first owner of luxurious permanent curls, Katarina Nessler, was also... a victim of her beauty. And she learned the phrase "Beauty requires sacrifice" in the very process of finding the right composition for curling. After all, her husband Karl Nessler went to quite daring experiments for this.

Over time, "chemistry" began to "branch out." In the thirties, the world learned about cold curling, and then more radical surprises awaited perming: for example, "wet chemistry", gentle curling, spiral curling appeared. What is it and what are they being screwed with?

"Wet chemistry", also commonly known as "vertical chemistry", is able to give expressive, stable, rigid curls created with vertical curlers. The "wet" work (to achieve the perfect effect of "wet" hair) is performed here by special sprays and gels. Vertical chemistry is especially ideal for unruly long hair.

And here is a spiral perm ("American chemistry", "American perm") is created using long sticks, on which, strictly speaking (and, as it is not difficult to guess from the spiral) strands of hair are wound. This type of perm is especially suitable for owners of medium-length hair.

Gentle perming (amino acid chemistry) is especially popular now – the healthiest of all "chemicals". After all, it occurs with the active participation of amino acids and proteins, which "brazenly" "bursting" into the hair, immediately "think" about their restoration. However, many people, realizing that this perm is the safest, still do not dare to do it because of its "shakiness" and fragility.

However, in this case, too, do not despair. After all, there are compromises between classic and gentle perming. This is, for example, acid-balanced (neutral perm). On the one hand, it has a gentle effect on the hair and scalp, and on the other hand, the curls are not just elastic, but also very confident "comrades".

Carving (light perm) also recommends itself well from compromise curls. This is a "diluted" classical "chemistry". Relatively mild solutions "work" here, but such "chemistry" will last no more than three months. By the way, often in beauty salons, carving is not even called curling, but temporary styling.


Biological perm

Biological perm is a real magician. She managed to "break" the perm-chemistry pair and at the same time completely not interfere with the magnificent effect of the hairstyle.

Biological perm has a stable character (curls will stay perfectly for a year and a half!), but at the same time, such a perm is surprisingly caring, gentle, and delicate. After all, one of her main "trump cards" is the ability to give her hair extra protein.

Although, of course, the drying effect of hair with a biological perm is also unavoidable. But compared to classical "chemistry", it is certainly very small. After all, you just think, which is closer to your hair, "chemistry" or "biology"?


Hair restoration after perming

Alas, sometimes after curling (especially after stable classical "chemistry", and thin and dry even after carving), serious problems can begin.

Restoring hair at home is quite a difficult and ineffective task, but restoring hair after "chemistry" in a beauty salon can give simply excellent results.

To do this, the wizard will diagnose your hair and scalp, and then prescribe the optimal treatment.

Cauterization, lamination, and professional moisturizing masks are considered the most effective for restoring hair after perming.
