Bio-curling for medium, short, long hair

Features of the procedure for large curls

Large biowave allows you to get volume and soft, beautiful waves. The larger the diameter of the styler, the less noticeable the curl will be. Be prepared for the fact that the biowave is straightened in large curls much faster, but it looks more natural. The procedure for applying the composition is standard.

The only condition: large bobbins are taken for curls. Silk curling is often used to create light waves.

Advice. A graduated haircut (cascade, ladder, etc.) will improve the effect. Biowaving for large curls on straight hair does not look very advantageous.

Curling for short hair

Such biowaving creates large curls on short hair in order to obtain volume. In this case, the length does not change significantly. Can be used even on very short haircuts (5–6 cm).

Curling for medium hair

Bio-curling for medium hair allows you to create various curls, including large ones. Here you can get both large flowing curls and well-defined curls, as well as light elegant waves.

The biowave looks good with large curls all over the hair.

An interesting effect is obtained when only the ends are wound. The alternation of curled individual strands with the remaining straight lines also looks good.

Long hair curling

It is here that biowave on large curls looks most impressive. Light waves look quite advantageous on long strands.

When deciding on biochemistry in this case, you should not conduct experiments at home. Long hair gets tangled, it is difficult to match the same strands. Therefore, it is better to trust an experienced skilled craftsman.

Note also that the curls will quickly straighten under the weight of the long hair, and very careful care will be required.

What is

This is a way to create curls for a long time, characterized by a minimum of harmful components in the composition. It is based on cysteamine, which, in terms of chemical composition, is very close to the natural protein cysteine ​​contained in hair.

Thanks to him, curls are not only durable, but also shiny, elastic and well-groomed.

Together with this ingredient, the following are added to the formulations:

• arginine;
• wheat and silk proteins;
• collagen;
• extracts of bamboo, tea tree leaves, aloe;
• lipids;
• vitamins.

Please note that depending on the diameter of the stylers used, curls are obtained from small, pronounced to large, wavy.

Main advantages

The main advantage of biowaving is that it can turn even thin thin hair into voluminous seductive hair. Yes, yes, the density and structure of your hair is not at all important for her - biowave always copes with its mission by 5+.

Fashion trends of the season dictate the popularity of natural curls.

But if nature has not rewarded you with curls, this is not a reason to spend an hour alone with a curling iron every morning. Biowave will give attractive curls with a natural effect.

We will not be cunning and completely exclude the harm of the procedure. But nevertheless, if we compare it and the effect of regular irons-ply-styling, then the latter will definitely outweigh.

You can sleep longer in the morning, and then wake up with the finished styling. The beloved will definitely be delighted and create a wonderful tradition of "breakfast in bed".

The result of biowaving can delight you for at least six months. The main thing is not to forget about hair care.

The procedure does not deprive girls of the opportunity to dye their hair. Therefore, if you decide to tint the roots or change the color of your hair, biowave will not be an obstacle for this.

But there are also disadvantages

Like any beauty procedure, biowave has not only advantages, but also some annoying disadvantages.

• If your hair reacts negatively to any effects of chemistry, then biowave will be no exception. Strands can upset with brittleness, cross-section and even loss.
• The technology does some harm to the hair structure. Many reviews of girls note that after the procedure, the hair is frizzy and becomes porous.
• Pregnancy, breastfeeding, scalp diseases and inflammatory processes in the body are strict contraindications for biowaving.
• For several weeks after the procedure, you will have to put up with the smell of cysteamine. Shampoos, perfumes, rosemary teas have a weak effect and are practically powerless. It just takes time for the acid to completely wash out.

If you neglect hair care after the procedure, their condition will become deplorable in a month.

Types of biowave

There are three most popular types of biowave hair. They are classified according to the presence of certain components in the composition of curling products.

Japanese biowave

Japanese biowave products include all essential amino acids with added protein shakes and collagen. Most often, the Japanese biowave procedure is used for thick and thick hair, since it is she who can easily curl such a volume of hair.

The effect of Japanese biowave is observed for 3-5 months. After that, of course, it is necessary to correct the hairstyle.

Italian biowave

Italian biowave is most often used on short to medium length hair. For this type of curling, bob, cascade and elongated bob haircuts are suitable. Italian biowave creates small curls, somewhat reminiscent of African ones.

The effect of this curling lasts for about 4 months.

Silk curling

It got its name due to the presence of silk extract in the composition of the curling agent. Perhaps the most gentle of all biowave procedures. That is why it is recommended to use it on colored and damaged hair, as well as to correct a perm.

Also, the biowave can be divided according to the size of the curls. They are large and small.

Large curls

To create large curls, stylers of large diameter (from 3 cm) are used. Most often, masters choose large curlers, twists or boomerangs. Chunky curls work well on long to medium hair.

When choosing large curls, it is worth considering that they will straighten much faster than small ones.

Small curls

For small curls, bobbins or other small diameter stylers are used. Small curls are suitable for short to medium hair.

Thanks to their strong hold, they last much longer than large ones.

How to choose suitable

To understand what size of curls and the composition for the procedure should be chosen, it is necessary to take into account many different factors: the type, condition and structure of the hair, the type of haircut and the shape of the face.

IMPORTANT! It is rather difficult to independently determine the appropriate type of biowave, so it is better to entrust this task to your master.

When choosing the type of biowave, you can build on the following recommendations:

• Owners of soft hair should choose smaller curls, as they will straighten much more slowly;
• On hair with a stiff texture and large thickness, any styling will retain its original shape for a long time. Therefore, you can choose both large and small curls.

How to make a biowave at home

If you don't want to spend a lot of money on a salon procedure, do the biowave yourself. To do this, you need to choose the following means: a special composition for biowaving, shampoo for deep cleansing, a neutralizer and a mask for restoration.

IMPORTANT! If you are not sure which formula is right for your hair, ask your hairdresser for advice.

What is needed for the procedure

• Special composition, neutralizer, shampoo, mask for restoration;
• Plastic or wooden stylers of a suitable diameter;
• Plastic or glass bowl;
• Latex gloves;
• Protective negligee;
• Foam applicator;
• Flat hairbrush;
• Towel.

How to carry out the procedure

1. Rinse hair thoroughly with shampoo for deep cleansing;
2. Dry the hair with a towel so that it becomes slightly damp;
3. Using a comb, divide the strands into several zones: occipital, temporal and crown;
4. Starting at the back of your head, wind the strands around the stylers. The thickness and density of the wrapping should be the same, otherwise the curls will turn out to be heterogeneous. In the temporal zone, the strands must be wound from the face so that the waves look natural;
5. Pour the curling compound into a prepared bowl, and then apply it directly to the curled strands;
6. Leave hair as it is for 20 minutes, or as indicated in the instructions. After that, rinse off the product with plain water, without removing the stylers;
7. Now apply a neutralizer to the wrapped strands and leave for 5-7 minutes. Then remove the stylers and distribute the rest of the neutralizer over the hair;
8. After 5 minutes, rinse your hair and use the mask;
9. After that, dry your curls naturally or with a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment.

ATTENTION! After the curling procedure is over, the hair cannot be washed for at least a day, but it is better not to touch it for 2-3 days. This is necessary for the curls to be properly fixed.

How long does the effect last

Curls last from 2 to 5 months. Several factors can influence this period:

• Hair structure and condition before the procedure;
• Correct care;
• The size of the curls.

If the hair was dry or weakened before the procedure, the perm will last a little time. To avoid this, you can pre-treat your hair with the help of salon procedures or natural home masks and vitamin and mineral complexes.

What does biowave look like on fine hair?

Bio-curling looks great on any hair, as long as it is healthy and there are no scalp problems.

If problems are present, biowaving can aggravate them, and the presence of thin hair will visually emphasize an unpleasant situation.

The situation can be corrected by special hair masks and other cosmetic procedures that are aimed at treatment. Hair usually becomes drier after biowaving. If you do not take care of your thin curls after biowaving, they can lose their attractive appearance.

It is much worse if biowave is performed on rather thin hair. In this case, the result may not meet expectations.

If you have the slightest doubt about whether it is worth doing a biowave or not, it is better to consult an experienced specialist in the salon who will give individual recommendations specifically in your case.

How to do biowave hair with bangs?

If you wear bangs, you should think about what to do with it before biowaving. There are three options:

1. remove bangs
2. curl bangs
3. leave straight hair on the bangs

The procedure is complicated by the fact that it is quite difficult to achieve a natural and smooth transition on your own. In order for biowaving hairstyles with bangs to be successful, it is better to entrust the work to professionals.

If you curl on bangs, the whole hairstyle can turn out to be sloppy, here it is important to find that fine line when curled bangs will add special sophistication.

Biowave is popular in which the bangs remain with straight hair. Since only natural ingredients are used in the process, as the hair grows back, a smooth transition from straight to curled hair will appear.

This procedure compares favorably with a perm.

Hair care after biowave

There is no need to do specific or special hair care after biowaving, however, there are several recommendations that experts advise to follow.

• It is better not to wet your hair for the first three days, so the procedure is best done before the weekend.
• Try not to use a hair dryer or dry your hair in any other way for the first week. This can disrupt the natural structure of the hair and make it more brittle.
• Hair after biowaving is quite manageable, so there is no need to use massage brushes.
• In addition, they significantly reduce the visible effect of curling. For combing, use a regular wooden or plastic combs with a sparse tooth pattern.

Hair after biowaving is best washed with a shampoo that contains silicone. It protects hair from moisture loss and strengthens it. It is always harmful to use a hairdryer, but if you cannot refuse it, choose a device with a diffuser.

If you used special rinses after shower and hair masks before biowaving, continue making them. If you haven't used firming hair cosmetics before biowaving, it's time to start.

If you want to give your hair a special look with the help of dye or milling, immediately after biowaving, wait at least three weeks and only then proceed to similar procedures.

How to restore hair after biowaving?

Any procedure like biowave is stressful for the hair. To restore them, use various masks, vitamin complexes and folk remedies. There is no single recommendation as to which of these will be most effective. The result is determined individually.

Start your recovery with the use of masks, they effectively affect the hair, supplying them with a maximum of vitamins and nutrients.

When using folk remedies, you should rely on recipes that contain one or more useful components:

• burdock, castor or olive oil. You can use nettle or burdock oil
• egg whitewhich restores hair well after any procedure
• onion husks rich in vitamins useful for hair and gives them additional nutrition and restoration

What drugs are needed for biowaving hair at home and salon

• small foam sponges in the amount of two pieces
• convenient container for mixing the drug (bowl or small bowl)
• comb, preferably plastic
  rubber gloves to protect the skin of the hands from the active drug;

Of course, the most convenient option is when the salon takes care of the search and purchase of everything necessary for curling.

The modern, safe approach to long-lasting curl

Classic hair chemistry has an extremely negative effect on the appearance and health of curls.

Almost immediately after creating curls, many girls note:

• dryness;
• rigidity;
• excessive fluffiness;
• fragility and dissection.

A more gentle option is a modern biological perm. Compositions for her do not contain two main "Pest ingredient":

• ammonia;
• thioglecolic acid.

Their place is taken by natural ingredients extracted from fruit acids or wheat extract.

As a result, the products applied to the hair resemble the amino acid ciscein, which is absolutely safe for both hair and skin.

Note! Despite being natural, biowaving products can also flake or dry out the skin / curls if used improperly. Therefore, trust the creation of styling only a trusted master.

Against the background of such a composition, the girls who are interested in how long hair biowave lasts are absolutely right? After all, natural ingredients do not have such a strong effect on the core, therefore, after a while, it is completely restored.

As a rule, the "lifespan" of a gentle curling varies within 3-6 months and depends on:

• thickness;
• natural structure;
• density;
• the frequency of styling;
• leaving.

Experts note that the length of the hairstyle is also an important factor. The biowave for short hair will last the longest. With medium and long lengths, the effect will gradually decrease under the weight of the hair.

Stages of execution in the salon

1. Purification. The hair is washed with a deep cleansing shampoo. This is done in order to wash off dirt, grease, and residues of styling products. Hair scales also open.
2. Drying. The curls are dried with a towel until slightly damp.
3. Cheat. At this stage, the hair is wrapped around selected large curlers. The hair is divided into zones (middle and side). The curling process depends on the desired result. So, to create Hollywood strands, stylers are wound vertically, for volume - horizontally. As a rule, wrapping occurs with the tips inward, but you can wind them in the opposite direction. The tension, in this case, should be quite strong, but not too much, otherwise the strands may begin to fall out after the procedure.
4. Activator application. Curled hair is carefully coated with the composition. Exposure time - no more than 20 minutes.
5. Wash off. At this stage, the strands are washed with plain water along with bobbins.
6. Application of a neutralizer. In order for each curl to be fixed, the hair with stylers is covered with a neutralizer (about 1/3 of the content). The holding time is according to the instructions. Then the curlers are removed very carefully, and the rest of the product is applied to the curls. It is necessary to withstand 5 minutes.
7. Wash off. After that, the composition is washed off thoroughly with water. A mask or conditioner is applied to the hair.
8. Drying. Wet strands are dried. This is done either naturally or with a hairdryer using a diffuser. The latter option will help secure the curls more firmly.
   The duration of the entire procedure is about two hours.

Important! After biochemistry, you can not wash your hair for three days until the curls are completely fixed.

To do or not

Like any other salon procedure aimed at changing the natural head of hair, biowave can harm hair. So that the result is not disastrous, resort to it only if the strands are healthy.

To do this, it’s not bad, at first, to drink vitamins, to conduct sessions of healing curls, to wait for time after antibiotic or hormone therapy (more than a month).

Be prepared for the quality of the work done to influence the outcome. Therefore, do not neglect the experience of the master and make sure that high-quality compounds are applied to the strands. Remember that the resulting curls are permanent and it is impossible to get rid of them using any other procedure. Only a haircut will help. Therefore, take care of them after biowaving.

With all the recommendations and proper care, the biochemistry experiment will be more than successful. And beautiful, shiny, elastic curls will delight you for a very long time.

Before and after photos

By choosing a bio-curl instead of a chemical one, you will get neat natural curls. To make sure of this, look at the photos of the girls before and after the procedure.
