The desire to turn straight hair into luxurious curls stimulates girls to do a long-term perm. Indeed, in this case, the curls delight the eye not for 1-2 days, but for several weeks or even months. If you are going to resort to the salon procedure, even at home, opponents of traditional chemistry are lost before choosing which to prefer: carving or biowave. Doubts are logical and justified, since both methods are known to have a gentle effect on hair. To learn about their features and differences among themselves this article suggests.
Description and differences of both procedures
Carving is often called long-term styling or light chemistry. This is due to the fact that a gentle chemical composition is used for curling, which minimally affects the structure of the curls, acting on the surface and not penetrating deep into it.
The main purpose of the procedure is not so much to form curls, as to give the hair volume. Therefore, carving is often chosen by girls with thin, rare strands.
Biowave - Another relative innovation of hairdressing. Often it is opposed to the classic chemical styling, positioning as safe for hair. However, this is not quite true.
Of course, biochemistry is made with very special solutions with nutrients that positively influence the structure of the hair shafts. But this does not mean that there are no chemical components in the biowave. Without these components, the hair would not curl for a long time.
Attention! The main common feature of both procedures is the minimal destructive effect on strands in comparison with classical chemistry.
Differences carving from biowave are as follows:
- Result. Long-term chemical styling allows you to get less elastic curls than biochemistry.
- The duration of the effect. The biological waving lasts an average of six months, carving lasts about 2 months.
- Indications for use. Biowave is suitable for all hair, including damaged, dyed, weakened, because even in this case, the nutritional components have a good effect on the surface of the hair rods. For carving, any of these states of hair is a contraindication to fulfillment.
- Price. Expensive formulations for biochemistry significantly increase the cost of the procedure in comparison with the light chemistry.
Another common feature of both types of curling - curls gradually straighten, so the transition between them and the regrown roots is not very noticeable.
What are the procedures for. Differences in effect
Both carving and biochemistry make it possible to get a magnificent, voluminous hair with beautiful, obedient curls. But If you rely on elastic curls, give preference to a biological curl.
For her use different types of curlers. By selecting the appropriate type and diameter of products, you can become the owner of voluminous boucle or spiral curls.
Focus on this issue not only on your own preferences, but also on the shape of the face. This biowave is different from carving. Indeed, as a result of light chemistry, hair will turn into soft, romantic waves. This is facilitated by special curlers carvers.
Important! It is hardly possible to make tight curls with the help of carving, because the sparing chemical. The composition is not designed for aggressive impact on the structure of the strands. Long-term chemical styling is chosen by girls who are more interested in the volume of the hairstyle, rather than clearly modeled curls.
The duration of the effect is due to many factors:
- hair length
- their structure
- the quality of the composition
- the correctness of the procedure,
- competent care,
- health status of the owner of curls.
However, even without these components, biowave is considered more durable. It can last from 3-4 to 6 months. Carving in its original form is kept for 1-2 months. Of course, in both cases, the hair does not become straight in one day. Traces of chemical exposure are noticeable and longer (strands continue to curl at the tips or remain slightly lush), but the hairstyle already requires correction.
Carving is often done only at the tips or at the roots. Local treatment with a light composition allows you to create the effect of hair, curly by nature, or to give volume.
Cost of carving and biowave
The price depends on the length and thickness of the hair, the skill of the master, the composition used. The most high-quality solutions are more expensive. Choosing light chemistry in the cabin, you can meet the amount of about 2,000 rubles. For a biowave it is usually a minimum, because its maximum cost reaches 8–12 thousand rubles.
When carrying out any of the procedures at home, you will need a special composition and curl retainer. In the case of biochemistry, the necessary drugs will cost 1500–3000 rubles. Solutions for long-term chemical styling will cost about 1000-1500 rubles.
The difficulty of doing at home
It is believed that light chemistry is not available for the house and is performed only in the conditions of the cabin. There are no such categorical judgments about the biological curling of hair. It is believed that it can be done independently.
If we reject prejudices and think logically, then both procedures are almost identical in terms of the step-by-step algorithm of actions:
- Testing of the scalp and strands for sensitivity to the drug.
- Washing hair
- Twisting the strands on the curlers.
- Processing their composition and wrapping for 15–20 minutes.
- Check the readiness of curls.
- Wash the composition with warm water.
- Hair treatment fixative. For biowave this stage is divided into 2 parts. One half of the drug is applied to the curls, which are not removed hair curlers, the second - on the untwisted curls. In the case of light chemistry, such a complex approach is not required: it is sufficient to immediately apply the whole fixative to curls.
- Rinsing with acetic water.
- Applying balm or conditioner.
- Styling curled hair.
How to make a biowave for long hair, we recommend to read on our website.
Attention! Do not forget to protect your hands with gloves, clothes with a waterproof cape, scalp with a thick cream spread along the hairline, and eyes with a special plait tied to the forehead. Although the drugs used are not aggressive, but still it is chemistry.
The complexity of the procedures in the home is due to the fact that any perm is a long, multi-stage, time-consuming process. Of course, it is desirable not only to have theoretical knowledge in this matter, but also to have at least a little experience. If you doubt your strength - call an assistant, who will carefully twist the curlers and evenly distribute the composition of curls, to monitor compliance with the technology.
Pros and cons of procedures
Advantages of biological curling:
- You can make hair curls of different shapes and sizes,
- the curls become obedient,
- Loose, painted strands are not a barrier to curly hairstyle. The nutritional composition will take care of the hair,
- the procedure is optimal for different types of hair,
- composition minimally spoils the curls,
- lasting effect.
There are also disadvantages to biochemistry:
- high price,
- strong odor in the first weeks,
- complexity and duration of execution (about 3 hours).
The benefits of carving include:
- pomp and volume, which are obtained as a result of laying,
- the ability to curl curls not completely, but locally (at the tips, at the roots),
- gradual straightening of curls, so you can wait a little with correction,
- The chance to make curls have girls with hair of different lengths,
- the solution with a mild effect will not disrupt the structure of the hair rods from the inside.
Cons of easy chemistry:
- it is impossible to do on the painted, melirovanny, weakened hair
- the effect does not last long,
- the complexity of the procedure.
By the way. The opinion that after any chemistry you can forget about styling is fundamentally wrong. On the contrary: if you do not follow the curls, they will look carelessly and quickly unwind.
Other features
Going to do any of the procedures, do not forget about the contraindications. They are relevant for both types of curling:
- Pregnancy, breastfeeding, menstruation.
- The presence of an allergy to the components of the composition.
- Acceptance of antibiotics, hormonal drugs.
- Stress, depression.
- Recent staining, after which less than 2 weeks have passed.
After chemical exposure to curls, it is necessary to ensure proper care:
- Do not wash your hair for the first 3-4 days
- comb your head with a comb with occasional teeth
- if you use a hair dryer, dry your hair with a diffuser,
- buy special products for curly strands. This applies not only to shampoos or masks, but also to styling products: mousses, gels, foams,
- go to bed, only after carefully drying the curls,
- protect your hair from ultraviolet radiation
- use barrettes and rubber bands less often.
Carving and biochemistry are good ways to realize your dream of curly hair with minimal harm to hair.
It cannot be said that the procedures are identical to each other, since there are still differences between them. Often it is this difference that can influence the choice of curling method. Determine what you prefer, but remember: it is undesirable to do any of these chemical styling more often 2 times a year.

3. Procedure for long-term hair styling (carving)
Our professional hair technologists will give you a detailed free consultation at any time convenient for you. You can talk with several experts and choose a master to whom you will have the greatest location and trust.
Before you start work, the master should carefully listen to your wishes and expectations from curling. The possibilities of modern hair curling, including long-term styling (carving) of hair, in the hands of a professional master are very wide. For the convenience of choosing your new image you can use the catalogs.
Owners of long hair, wanting to make carving or any other curl, you need to take into account that if the hair is long, heavy and all the same length, then the curl at the roots will not be as steep and lush as at the ends of the hair, as it will be pulled under its own hair weight. If a light graduation is made on long hair (a cascade haircut with a smooth transition of length), then the shortened upper strands will give the curl opacity, basal volume and a uniform curl along the length.
In order for your long-term styling to look luxurious, and the curl to be alive and elastic, the condition of the ends of the hair is very important. right. Therefore, it is very important before carving or any other curl to “refresh” the ends of the hair, if they are damaged, and then regularly maintain them in a healthy state.
After analyzing the structure and condition of your hair, the master selects the composition for waving, the most suitable for your hair, hair curlers of the desired shape and thickness, as well as the necessary protective and regenerating preparations.
If the hair is initially weakened or damaged, then, in the process of curling or long-term styling, special healing procedures are also applied for deep structural hair restoration, as well as Medical Haircut with Hot Scissors (Hot Haircut).
If you are prone to allergic reactions, you must notify the master of this, and before starting work, test the composition on the elbow bend from the inside. Any perm on the hair is not recommended during the "critical" days and, if you are undergoing treatment with potent drugs.
Before long-term styling, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the full list of CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR CURRENT, as well as get acquainted with ANSWERS TO THE MOST FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS TO THEM
1. How long will a perm hair hold?
How long a curl will last on a hair depends on many factors, namely, on the type of your hair, their thickness and structure, on the condition of the hair before curling, on whether they are natural or colored, on the type of dyeing, the shape of the haircut and, naturally, on the type of curling and on your chosen curl size.
When the master looks at your hair, and you show in the catalog what kind of perm you want, you can roughly tell how long this curl will last on your type of hair. There are compositions for curling, which retain a curl on the hair longer, and there are very light compositions for carving, which "go" quickly enough.
As for the curl, the curl with a rather steep curl lasts longer on the hair than the curl (or long-term styling) with large curls or waves.
Regarding long hair, we want to emphasize that the curl along the entire length remains longer on the hair with graduation, if the long hair is heavy and all of the same length, the curl at the roots will stretch under its own weight of hair, and the curl at the ends will last longer.
It is also worth mentioning that sometimes this type of hair is found, which by its nature is difficult to curl and the hair, for unknown reasons, either doesn’t immediately “take” the curl, or, afterwards, curl off quickly enough, “trying” to return to its original condition At the same time, we meet hair, which, on the contrary, gives in to a very well perm and can keep it very long, up to 6-8 months.
2. Will there be a curl and volume at the very roots during the chemical curling of long hair?
If the hair is long, heavy and trimmed with an even cut (i.e., all hair is of the same length), then the curl at the roots cannot be as steep and bulky as at the ends of the hair, since naturally it will be pulled under its own weight .
A pronounced curl and volume in the root zone, when curling long hair, is achieved by graduation (easy cascading of long hair), when the upper strands are shortened smoothly, respectively, they become easier and better keep the curl, give curl fluffiness and root volume.
How long hair waving will look like depends largely on not only the type of waving and the shape of the haircut, but also on the quality and structure of the hair.
3. Is it possible to do a perm on henna or basma colored hair?
The overwhelming majority of salons do not, in principle, curl on henna-colored hair (or basma), since the result of curling cannot be guaranteed. We still undertake this difficult work. BUT! The effect of henna on the hair is such that after it the chemical perm can: generally “not take”, “take” unevenly, or “take” only for a short time, and then the hair seems to “shed” the curl, returning to the direct state.
However, very often the curl on henna-colored hair is beautiful and lasts a long time. What it depends on is difficult to say.
We guarantee thorough adherence to the technological process of waving on our part. But we can’t give you a guarantee that your henna-colored hair will correctly take a curl and not shed it.
It is advisable that before a chemical perm of hair dyed with henna or basma, come for a preliminary free consultation and MAKE TASTE. But even if the perm on the test strand turned out to be successful, this does not serve as a 100% guarantee that the perm on all hair will be uniform and resistant.
four.Is it necessary to cut the ends of the hair before the perm?
In order for curls or curls to be beautiful and to make the curls look gorgeous on the hair, the condition of the ends of your hair is very important. The ends of the hair must be fresh and well-groomed!
If the ends of the hair are dried, cut and hard, then the correct curls or curls will not, and the type of curling will be completely different, not presentable and untidy.
Therefore, before curling, if the condition of the ends of the hair is not very good, it is necessary to cut them at least a little, and also, later, after curling, not to forget to regularly “refresh” the tips of the hair. It often happens that even a fairly “old” waving starts to look like fresh if you cut off the damaged ends of the hair. For some hair (depending on their quality and condition), it is recommended to improve haircut with Hot scissors.
IF YOU HAVE LONG HAIR WITH SEATED AND DRY TIPS ALL THE LENGTH, you would like to refresh your hair, but it’s a pity to part with the length, then we can offer you the procedure “Healthy hair polishing of long hair with a special technology” the entire length, without noticeable shortening the length of the hair.
5. I have bleached hair, they are thin and dry, but I really want to make a perm. Is it possible?
At the preliminary free consultation, the master will look at the quality of your hair and their condition at the present time, discuss with you what type of curling you would like and suggest the option that is optimal for your hair. This may be one of the delicate Bio-Curls with preliminary strengthening of damaged hair according to the Japanese, American or French system, depending on the problem of the hair.
In some cases, if the hair is badly damaged, it is necessary to refrain from curling until the hair structure is restored. In this case, procedures are first made that restore and reconstruct at a deep level of your hair. For example, the procedure "Keratin Prosthetics" hair or procedure "Happiness for the hair" and many others, depending on the type of hair and the extent of their damage.
You can read about “Bio-curls with preliminary strengthening of thin and damaged hair”, as well as about the Procedures for deep restoration of the hair structure on our website or ask the salon administrators.
6. Do hair perm require special styling?
There is such a type of hair, in which the perm almost does not need special styling, after curling the curl is well formed during normal drying of the hair, and the dried curls can only be slightly adjusted with wet hands. But happy owners of hair of this quality are not very common. Basically, in order for the perm to look beautiful, and so that there are clearly defined curls or curls on your head, the curl must be laid in a special way. Therefore, after a perm, we recommend our customers to do the installation “Diffuser”.
By “diffuser” styling, we mean drying the hair with a hair dryer with a special “diffuser” nozzle with simultaneous manual formation of curls using special styling products. In the process of laying the master will show you how and in what quantity to apply the styling products, how to use the “diffuser” and, most importantly, how to correctly form curls or curls during the drying process so that you can easily do it yourself. Whether you need regular styling with a “diffuser” depends largely on the type of your hair, their quality, type of curling and, of course, your taste and preferences.
Perm and carving

Carving:
The term "carving" came to hairdressing thanks to the company Schwarzkopf, which patented the method of long-term styling with a special composition and using "twisted" curlers.

Advantages of carving:
1. Carving is a more gentle way of getting luxurious curls.
The chemical effect is carried out by a lighter composition and the damaging effect on the hair is not as strong as with a classic perm. Experts recommend doing a normal perm not more than once a year, carving can be repeated once every 2-3 months. 
2. Such long-term styling does not need to be clipped, as "chemistry", the hair will simply gradually "unwind" by itself.
3. Hair after carving does not require special care. You can use any styling products, it is desirable to use cosmetics for the care of textured hair, moisturizing and restoring masks.
4. Carving allows you to simulate a large number of hairstyles. After the procedure, the curls will persist until the hair is washed, in the future they can be straightened using a hairdryer. You can, using styling, to create a lyrical mess or elastic curls.
5. Carving technology has a drying effect, which can be useful for oily scalp.
6. Carving is better kept on the hair of short or medium length. The effect lasts for about a month, but sometimes even longer depending on the structure of the hair.
Cons and features of carving:
1. Carving is a gentle way of “chemistry”, but damage, especially of bleached and weakened hair, exists.
2. It is not recommended to do carving with newly dyed, bleached or bleached hair.
3. When damaged hair before carving, it is desirable to carry out procedures for the restoration. In case of sensitive scalp irritation is possible, therefore, warn the master conducting the procedure.
4. It is better to dye hair no sooner than 72 hours after their treatment with chemical composition, and it is desirable to use a ammonia-free dye.
5. Carving procedure is contraindicated for pregnant women during lactation.
Perm:
For the chemical curling of hair in our salon, modern preparations are used that have become softer: ammonia is used to a minimum, the alkaline composition is practically not used, and the acids are more benign. The composition of drugs gently affects the structure of the hair without damaging it, which allows for the procedure on all types of hair.

3. By type of composition used: acid, alkaline, neutral and biowave
Pluses perm:
1. Fashionable beautiful curls relevant at all times

Despite the modern formulations, permed hair still has a damaging effect on the structure of the hair:
1. They become dry and brittle, split ends appear. After the procedure, a haircut is recommended - even a small shortening of the ends of the hair makes the hairstyle more accurate.
2. Hair care will require restorative procedures and cosmetics, so be sure to follow the recommendations of the wizard. For hair care after a perm, use special soft products enriched with regenerating, moisturizing and softening ingredients.

Types of long-term hair curling
In modern hairdressing, you can find a lot of different types of long perm. Choose your option!
It is considered quite stable - the result of the month is 3-3.5. True, the hard hair keeps much less. Does not exert too much aggressive influence on the structure.
Japanese or lipid-protein
The composition of such a perm does not include alkali and acid. It can be carried out on a weakened hair. Lipid-protein complex is absolutely safe, but that's not all! It regulates the moisture of the hair and does not change their structure. Neutral ph allows you to get natural curls - volumetric and elastic. The duration of such a wave is from 2 to 6 months.
It can be used for natural healthy hair. The method is almost harmless, but is available only in the cabin. On the clean wet strands wind the bobbins, which are connected to a special apparatus (regulates the exposure time and temperature). To reduce the aggressiveness of chemical components, strands are lubricated with special fixing means.
With the help of elektrozavivki you can get light large curls, creating volume.
Curling of this type will last a very long time - at least six months. But this method is suitable only for strong and tough strands. Owners of soft and weak hair should look for some other method - the acid is bad for the health of the hair and makes it brittle.
The composition of this mixture is proteins and amino acids, through which the curls become soft, natural and tender. And most importantly - after such a procedure, hair restoration occurs very quickly.
Soft gentle option, has a neutral PH. This method is suitable for different types of hair. It does not harm either the skin or the structure of the strands. The result is long and looks very natural.
What it is? One of the ways to curl, which is also considered gentle and safe. The effect lasts six months. The formula of biowave includes a special protein to strengthen the structure. It is he who helps to maintain a beautiful curl and strengthen the hair.
The biochemical wave is of three main types:
- With a moisturizing complex - regulates the moisture of the strands, adds shine and elasticity. Ideal for hard and long hair.
- With a bamboo hood. This method is used for damaged and thin strands. The protective extract of bamboo restores the structure and brings the hair to the perfect look.
- With silk proteins. This biowave is not able to change the characteristics of the hair. At the end of laying they will become even softer, stronger and healthier! The only important nuance is the length of the hair (not suitable for long strands).It is impossible not to note, and the cost of such a wave is higher than the rest.
See more details:
One of the most popular and effective options. Carving differs from the classical curl only in the absence of aggressive components in its composition. The laying time is 4 to 6 weeks. At the end of this period, the hair will return its natural texture. Carving is just perfect for short and medium strands, but on long hair it will not last long.
The last two options - the least traumatic. By virtue of their composition, they do not spoil the structure, do not destroy the follicle and do not change the hair color.

Long-term perm hair - effective ways
Every woman wants to be the owner of a beautiful and neat hair. Long-term styling allows you to solve this problem and saves the girl from having to spend every day a lot of time creating an image. This goal can be achieved in different ways - by carving, biowaving or perming.
What is long-term hair styling
The procedure is carried out when it is necessary to give the strands a good amount, to make them fluffy and wavy. Thanks to this type of styling, it is possible to obtain large curls or curls, and they are wound in the traditional or vertical way.
It is also quite possible to do this procedure exclusively on the root area. Due to this, it will be possible to give the hair stiffness and volume in the root area. Also processing can be subjected exclusively to individual zones or curls.
To get the stylish effect of intertwining in a chaotic manner curls use special styling techniques. As a rule, this method is used in such cases:
- to give curl splendor, beautiful volume and slight undulation,
- to get large curls and beautiful open curls,
- to create structured strands,
- to make fashionable accents in a hairstyle due to the selection of separate sections,
- to create volume in the area of the roots or beautifully arrange the tips of the strands,
- to make the curls obedient and elastic.
The main disadvantage of this technique is the fact that it is not suitable for long and straight hair. This method is ideal for medium curls. Long strands straighten too fast. In this case, staining is not done immediately, but only after 3 days after the installation.
Procedure carving for a long time
Under the carving understand the long-term styling, which involves the use of special chemical agents. Since it contains fruit acids, this technique does not harm the curls. After this procedure, you can make the hair softer and more shiny. Due to this carving is very popular with women of any age.
Before the procedure, experts advise to evaluate the structure of the curls.This is very important because on the basis of this information it is necessary to select the type of chemical composition. If you choose the wrong drug, you can badly ruin the hair. If it is impossible to determine the type of curls, it is better to consult a specialist.
Although carving is considered to be a rather benign procedure, resorting to it too often is not worth it, because any chemical influence negatively affects the structure of the hair. It may take a lot of time and money to restore the strands. To prevent negative consequences, it is important to take breaks. For hair care you need to use professional formulations.
Biowave
An alternative to carving can be a biowave. This is a great option for those who do not want to spend time laying. A special protein is present in the formula for biowaving, which strengthens the hair structure. Thanks to this, it is possible to strengthen the strands and preserve beautiful curls for a long time.
There are a number of variations of this procedure:
- Biowave with a moisturizing complex in the composition. Due to this procedure, it is possible to regulate the moisture of the hair, giving it shine and elasticity. Due to this effect, hair of medium hardness can be obtained. This method is ideally used for long strands.
- Biowave with bamboo extract. This is a great option for thin or damaged strands. Due to the protective complex it is possible to restore the structure of the strands. For this technique usually used the means of Italian production.
- Silk protein wave. This procedure does not change the natural characteristics of the hair. After the installation, they become softer. However, this method is not recommended for long hair.
This procedure involves several steps. These include:
- washing head,
- spinning strands
- the use of a special composition with protein,
- the use of thickening composition
- application of a fixative,
- drying curls naturally.
Due to the nature of the procedure, it is not worth doing it yourself. The use of layers of special formulations requires a qualified approach.
How to make a perm for a long time at home?
If you wish, long-term installation can be done independently. For this you need to buy special tools. Technology requires the following sequence of actions:
- Hair should be washed and dried.
- Curls tightly enough and evenly screwed on curlers, and they can be of any size and shape.
- With the help of a sponge, curls should be treated abundantly with a special solution.

Types and original methods of curling hair for a long time and features of care for elastic curls
Perm hair for a long time invariably included in the top 10 hairdressing procedures. Strong chemistry allows for six months and longer to forget about curling or styler to create elastic curls.
Extra volume, luxurious curls - the result of which millions of women dream. Perm gives the beauties this opportunity. Chemistry can be done not only in the cabin, but also at home.
Persistent curls are obtained by treating the hair with special reagents that affect the structure of the hair shafts. The effect after the procedure is noticeable 3–12 months.
Hard curls, excellent results from six months or more, resistance to the effects of precipitation (in wet weather, curls perfectly keep their shape). The most "strong" chemistry.
Creating a curl - the result of the penetration of chemicals into the cuticle without disclosing scales. Noticeable damage to the hairs. The technique is contraindicated for the treatment of dry, brittle hair.
Neutral
Hydrogen index - pH 7.4, more gentle effect on the strands than the acidic species. Elastic curls are not so dry and hard, hair shafts retain moisture more actively, stress for hair is less strong.
The preparations contain a keratin complex that protects the cuticle. The technique is suitable for women with thin hair, sensitive skin.
A softer effect on hair, maintaining healthy hair. When alkaline chemical curling hair reagents penetrate into the stratum corneum, revealing flakes. The gentle method still does not suit the owners of weak, dry hairs.
The cost of the procedure is lower, curls delight for three months. Straight, hard strands unwind quickly or poorly amenable to processing.
Important! What type of chemistry to choose? The answer will give the master of high qualification Hairdresser will take into account the thickness, length of hairs, stiffness, thickness of the strands, the condition of the scalp. When buying a kit to perform the procedure without the help of a master, get advice in the salon of professional cosmetics.
Original techniques
Masters of beauty salons offer customers several options for creating interesting curls. Each method of long-term hair curling has its own advantages.
A brief description of:
- with papilotkami. Light curls naturally layered on each other. After processing you get beautiful, gentle curls,
- "Children". Technology for sensitive skin. A special rubber cap with holes is put on, the master pulls the strands out. When processing hair, reagents do not fall on the epidermis,
- spiral chemistry. Strands are wound on spiral curlers. Perfect exit for short strands,
- on the hairpin. The technique is suitable for the length of the strands to the shoulders. Curls are created with a non-metallic stud,
- with pigtails. An interesting option for semi-long strands. Technology: 80% of the length of the ends are woven into the ends, the tips are screwed on bobbins The result - curvaceous curls, natural effect,
- with twisting the second bobbin. Original technology to create curls of different diameters. The master winds a part of the strand on one bobbin, after a certain distance adds the second,
- radical The sticks are wound at the roots to eliminate the difference when the hair regrowth after chemistry. The second direction is the creation of basal volume for fine hairs.
Benefits
Why do women not abandon the aggressive hairdressing procedure, if there are more gentle types of creating cute curls? The list of advantages is impressive:

- the hair is covered with a warming cap,
- after a certain period the master spins the curl a couple of turns, checks the quality, thickness of the strands, twists again,
- after the required time has expired, it is necessary to wash the reagents with warm water, without removing the bobbin,
- the next step is the application of the fixing composition. To prevent the foam from numbing into the eyes, the master folds the rope from the towel, closes the brow line,
- Fixation is applied with a sponge or applicator. The master waits until the foam settles, unwinds the bobbins, processes the tips with fixing solution,
- the final stage is thorough washing of the head under running water, applying a neutralizer,

Long-term styling
Beautiful hairstyles often require daily styling. Someone does it easily and quickly, and someone spends hours in front of a mirror and is still not satisfied with the result.
Such girls fit long-term styling, photos before and after it are very different - you can see them a little lower. This styling is done in the barber shop, it is called carving.
This procedure ensures the preservation of lush volume and beautiful curls for a long time - up to two months.
What distinguishes long-term hair styling from perm
Long-term hair styling is a variant of the long-known perm. She enjoys a bad reputation. The chemicals needed for such a perm are very aggressive. They made the strands stiff, lifeless and dull. Hair lost health for a long time, often only a haircut could help them. For carving, gentle formulations are used that keep the curls healthy.
Before and after - two different people!
Especially popular long-term styling for medium hair. This length allows you to make curls of different sizes - smaller at the roots and larger at the ends of the hair. Especially beautiful is carving on a cascade type hairstyle. Long-term styling gives it extra volume. See photos before and after long-term installation.
At first strands are wound on special curlers - carvers. The master can use small or large curlers - as desired by the client. And can combine them together. After that, the chemical composition is applied to the strands, it must be kept under a heat-saving cap for about twenty minutes.
Cheerful short curly hair
Long-term styling for short hair will turn you into a perky curly beauty. This procedure does not save you the need for styling, but it will make it much easier and shorter. It is enough just to dry the hair with a diffuser. On short curly hair will look beautiful various accessories - headbands, ribbons, hairpins.
Even mild curling products can damage your hair. Carving is not recommended if the hair is damaged. Brittle and dyed hair will not benefit from this procedure. Do not do long-term styling and long thick hair. Delicate compositions will not even cope with them.
How much is this procedure in the cabin?
The price of long-term styling, as a rule, is not very high compared to other hairdressing services. It is better to refuse this procedure to owners of dry hair, because it will dry them even more. Dry carving can cause dandruff.
Long hair carving is not as good as short and medium hair. And long hair is heavier, any styling on them will stay worse. Owners of long hair can be carved only at the roots to give volume to the hairstyle. On long strands, long-term styling can create the effect of large waves.
How best to style your hair after this procedure?
We should not forget that carving is not a ready styling, but only the basis for it. How to make styling on curly hair after carving, will tell the video at the end of the article.
You will need a hair dryer with a nozzle diffuser, round brush and styling products. In hot summer on curly strands, the effect of wet hair looks great.
But to create it you must have a gel or mousse.
Light chemistry and biowave: similarities and differences
Types of carving depend on the chemical composition used. This is a light chemistry and biowave. For biowave more gentle formulations are used.
After this type of long-term styling, curls last longer. Since biowave is much more environmentally friendly and sustainable than lightweight chemicals, it is much more expensive.
In addition to the composition of the fixing agent, there are no other differences between the light chemistry and biowave.
How long will the curls last?
How long does the styling last? Usually in the salons guarantee that tight and elastic curls will delight you for at least a month.
And after three months or a little less, you will have to repeat the procedure. Twisted hair straightened gradually and imperceptibly. On average, carving lasts one and a half or two months.
Long-term styling is an inexpensive and effective procedure, it is worth trying.
Long-term wave: fashion ideas for medium-length hair
For a long time, the fashion was perfectly straight, shiny hair.
However, curls do not give up their positions and triumphantly returned to the podium.
Large curls or small curls, elegant waves or helix coils - the choice depends on the hair texture and the client's preferences.
In response to the request of consumers, the salons offer a variety of options for long-term hair-care perm. To maintain a great result will help the correct home care and timely correction of hair.
Modern long-term styling: the pros and cons
Owners of straight hair, dreaming about the hair, often refuse long-term curling in favor of home styling curling or curlers. Many people remember the aggressive compositions for the classic "chemistry" that turns shiny strands into a sheaf of dry straw.
However, hairdressing has stepped far forward and today salons are ready to offer much more benign options that preserve the beauty, shine and healthy appearance of hair.
Among long-term styling benefits
- a variety of options that allows you to choose a perm for a particular type of hair,
- sparing compounds that do not spoil the texture of the hair,
- some techniques are able to restore strands damaged during dyeing, discoloration, improper styling,
- the result lasts for several months
- Curls look natural and do not require complicated styling,
- there is no need for curls between,
- using styling tools, styling can be changed beyond recognition,
- soft compositions remove the increased fat content of the hair.
Despite the many advantages, beautiful photos in magazines, long-term styling has drawbacks
- waving is harmful to dried or recently bleached hair,
- will often have to cut split ends,
- after the procedure, the hair needs very careful care,
- an inexperienced master using low-quality drugs can hopelessly ruin hair,
- sparing formulations keep the curl not as long as stronger means,
- owners of thick, perfectly straight hair, may be disappointed as a result, for them the perm will be too weak.
Waving options
Salons offer different options for long-term styling. The choice is best made with the master. The specialist will assess the type, length and condition of the hair, after which he will recommend an option that will suit a particular client.
A very popular type of curling. Ideal for medium-length hair, curl on them will last as long as possible. Hair styling is done on special hair curlers (as in the photo), then a fixative composition is applied to the hair, which is aged for 10-20 minutes. The final stage - washing the composition and applying a nutrient balm.
The appearance of the hair depends on the size of the carvers. The thinner they are, the smaller the curl will turn out. Long-term styling on medium hair is done using ordinary bobbins or vertical hair curlers, and local stranding of individual strands is also possible.
Gentle chemistry
For hair, poorly tolerant acid perm, suitable compositions based on alkali. The preparation contains theoglycol and ammonia, however, it acts more gently on the curls and scalp.
In an alkaline environment, the active ingredients penetrate the rods faster, providing shiny, natural curls.
For work it is better to use compounds enriched with nutrients and vitamin complexes.
The technology is suitable for thin, damaged hair, but for too thickThe thick and tough result may not be too successful.
Because of its softness, the composition is quickly washed away, the effect lasts for 2-3 months.
Much more fans neutral curling. The preparation contains cysteamine and cocamidopropyl betaine. The active ingredients evenly penetrate the hair shaft, the curl turns out to be steep and strong. The effect of the procedure lasts up to six months; in the process of wearing, the curls gradually become smoother, but they are not completely straightened.
Laying at home
Cool curls, large curls or elegant spirals - the perfect base for any hairstyle. Wavy hair is easy to style, excessive care is not required. It is much more important to choose gentle styling tools and fashion accessories that can quickly transform the hair.
For everyday wear, you can gather curls in a low tail or a lush bundle on the back of the head. Soft curls can be smoothed ironing, turning them into beautiful large curls. But most often the hair of medium length remains loose and the image is created with the help of a moisturizing spray and hairdressing clips, for example, spectacular retro waves in the spirit of early Hollywood, as in the photo:
Hair care
After curling hair require particularly careful care. It is important to keep curls as long as possible, to make them beautiful, smooth, obedient in styling.
Shampoo, conditioner and styling mousse are best bought in a store for professional hairdressers. There is a large selection of brands designed for different types of curling. It is advisable to choose drugs without aggressive additives with a minimum of perfumes and dyes.
You can wash your hair no earlier than 2 days after curling. In the process with curls are treated very carefully, they should not be confused, pull. Rub and twist.
After rinsing, strands are gently blotted with a towel. It is necessary to use the hair dryer as seldom as possible, this rule applies to other devices: pleyos, tongs, and irons. The hair should dry naturally, this will help preserve the structure of curls.
Combs made of bone, horn or wood are suitable for combing.
Metal and plastic combs spoil curls and cause delamination of hair shafts.
Important. You can dye your hair 5 days after curling.
Mousses will help to style your hair. Varnishes and alcohol-free gels. Suitable preparations with volatile silicones, preserving the texture of the hair. In the summer, it is recommended to replace all the care products with formulations with a high SPF index, which protects the strands from aggressive ultraviolet radiation.
1-2 times a week it is useful to make masks with aloe juice, egg yolks, yogurt, natural vegetable oils and other useful components. See information about other homemade masks that will help restore hair after curling:
Long-term perm - a simple and safe way to get beautiful curls without daily torment with curling and curlers. To hairstyle does not disappoint, it is important to choose the right way of styling and learn how to care for hair with the use of special tools. By following these simple rules, you can perm several times a year, without worrying about the health of curls.
Long-term installation - advantages and disadvantages
There are a lot of different opinions regarding the perm, because this procedure has both disadvantages and advantages. Let's talk about them in more detail.
- Lasting effect
- Thin hair will be more voluminous,
- After this procedure, the daily installation will take only a few minutes.
- The hair will be obedient,
- Curling can solve the problem of greasy hair, as it dries them.
- Hair after the procedure requires special care - it is necessary to more often use masks and other means,
- If a girl has a desire to change her hair, she will have to wait. Return to the natural form takes a long time,
- Predict the result and the final effect is almost impossible. The hairstyle may turn out to be completely different from what you thought.
In what cases it is justified to do a biowave?
It should be understood that such a procedure is always associated with a certain risk, that is, it is impossible to accurately predict the result in advance, especially if you are curling for the first time. The same composition on similar hair structures can have a different effect. Master of the LEOL beauty salon chain Natalia, says that the result may differ even due to changes in hormonal levels.
If you have beautiful thick and dense long hair, but you really like curls, it is better to give up the idea to make a chemical or biowave. Just find the strength to use styling regularly. Having made a choice in favor of chemistry, you will not acquire great beauty, but you will spend a considerable amount and risk spoiling beautiful hair.
A biowave is really worth doing if you have thin hairs that stick together in untidy strands and do not hold volume at all. In this case, you will get the necessary pomp and less likely to be disappointed with the result. On thin, docile hair, usually the composition works better and the result lasts longer.
Where to make texturing hair?
Be sure to carefully approach the selection of the salon and the master. It is very simple to burn hair, despite the fact that modern compositions for perms are more gentle compared to those that were a couple of decades ago, the risk is quite high, especially if the hair is dry and damaged. Here you need to rely on personal experience and experience of friends, reviews on the Internet and generally the reputation of the institution and the craftsman to whom you are going. Do not be lazy to study the information on this issue. Never save on biowave hair. A few extra thousand are unlikely to save your budget, but it will take at least 1.5 years to grow new hair, at least up to the shoulders, and no pepper tincture and burdock will help a lot. Of course, the high price does not guarantee quality. However, well-known above-average segment stores usually value their reputation and their customers more.
Biowave at home
Sometimes this idea may seem tempting, however, never risk holding such an event on your own, and even at home. It is very likely that the result will not please you at all. Even with sufficient knowledge in the field of hairdressing, it is simply physically difficult to perform correctly all the manipulations on itself. It is better to spare no time and money and trust a professional.
How to prepare for the procedure of long-term hair styling?
Basically, preparation is required for dry and damaged hair. Her goal is to make them as healthy as possible before the procedure. Here is a standard list:
- You can undergo a restorative treatment procedures in the cabin,
- regularly use regenerating and nourishing masks (once a week), shampoos and balms (at least one to two weeks before curling),
- use natural nourishing oils, for example almond oil (apply on the ends of the hair in the morning and evening at least one to two weeks before the procedure).
How to care for hair biowave?
After the texturing procedure, the hair requires a more intensive course, as it becomes more dry and damaged. Immediately after the salon is not recommended to wash your hair for one or two days, so that the curl does not stretch. Next, you should focus on nutrition and moisturizing hair.The usual scheme: nourishing and moisturizing masks, balsams and shampoos (preferably with keratin, without SLS and without parabens). Do not forget about natural oils, for example, almond oil is recommended to be applied in small quantities on the ends of the hair in the morning and evening.
Sometimes you can find the opinion that after hair curling can only be used special shampoos for curly hair, in my opinion it does not matter.
It is better to dry the hair in a natural way without a hair dryer; do not pull the strands when wiping with a towel. You also can not comb them until they are dry, otherwise the curl will disperse faster. It is better to use a wooden comb with rare teeth.
Between staining and biowave, it is recommended to withstand at least two weeks. It is also worth remembering that staining on each other and re-curling will further injure the hair, so if possible, refuse to perform a row of a large number of such procedures.
As a result, I would like to say that hair biowave is an ambiguous procedure, not always giving the desired result, so before you decide on it, answer yourself the question: “Do you really need it and will this procedure solve your problems?”. Often the desire to make a perm is simply the natural need of women to change something in themselves. In this case, think, maybe you really need a new haircut, coloring, rest in the SPA or just a fashionable dress.
If you decide that hair biowave is exactly what you need, then go ahead, the only responsible approach to the procedure of choosing a master, preliminary preparation and subsequent hair care, then as a result your hairstyle will please you with a long time surrounding
For many girls, waving hair for a long time is no longer a dream, but a reality. There are many ways to do long-term styling. True, everyone has a different idea of what hair curling is for a long time. To someone, the whole day is a long time, and to someone a month is not enough.
Hot tools
Of course, with the help of pleyos, electric curlers, tongs, you can create beautiful curls or curls. However, they rarely last long. A maximum of a day or two, provided that used some kind of special means for curling hair (mousse, foam, wax, varnish), and then you have to repeat the procedure.
Extend the life of curls that have been screwed up by the above tools, you can. First of all, it is worth remembering that only dry hair always curls, otherwise there is a risk of them just burning it out. And, of course, you need to wind your hair with exceptionally small and thin strands, so that the curls are harder and longer. The use of various mousses for styling also plays an important role, without them, hair quickly takes on its former shape.
There are so many of them. But separately it is worth telling about such a thing as Babyliss hair curlers. This is an innovative homemade tool for creating beautiful curls. Its main advantage is that the tongs work automatically. Screw yourself do not need anything, as in the case of curling. Simply place a small strand between the two parts of the forceps, clamp. When the indicator flashes and a beep sounds, they are unclenched, pulled out of the finished strand. Time and temperature can be adjusted independently, based on the manufacturer's recommendations. Thus, Babyliss automatic hair curling iron is a fairly simple and fast way to create beautiful and neat, tight and tight curls for a long time. According to reviews of those who used the tool, laying is enough for two or three days.
Curlers and papilotki
They can also be made quite elastic curls, if you adapt.However, they will hold on, despite all possible tricks, just a few hours. Usually, curlers and papillots are worn over night on slightly damp hair to make the curls stiff. Unfortunately, this is not a guarantee that they will last longer than one day. Some braid for the night small braids, which, after unraveling, give a “curly” effect that lasts up to 48 hours.
Three basic steps
There are not many stages of biowave. First, the master washes the client's head with a special non-sulfate shampoo (step 1). It is more sparing in composition, so it does not make the hair heavier. After that, the hairdresser offers a choice of different size curlers. The larger the size, the bigger the curls will be. With the smallest hair curlers, the smallest and tighter curls are obtained. The hair is treated with the composition when winding (step 2).
After the time has expired (the exact time depends on the chosen means) the master repeats the processing. Only this time another, fixing composition is used (step 3). It includes proteins and beta-carotene, which not only give the hair the necessary rigidity to keep the shape, but also strengthen them. After removing the curlers, the strands are dried with warm air without a comb.
Biowave Reviews
Most girls are very pleased after the procedure. First, they get the very curls that they want: large, small or medium. Secondly, the procedure does not harm the hair at all. When the waviness effect passes, they will return to their former state without damage to health.
There are also dissatisfied clients of beauty salons who expect the same result from a biowave, as from a carving, which is described below. In fact, these are two different procedures, with their own characteristics that must be considered. So, biowave is completely safe and even beneficial for hair, and carving still implies some chemical effect, although less than in usual “chemistry”.
Ways to create stylish curls
On a photo - variants of a perm, fashionable in this season
Depending on the condition of the hair, their individual characteristics and material capabilities, choose the option of hair styling with waves:
- familiar to all curlers, curling iron, hair dryer and iron,
- chemical permanent
- eco curling hair
- carving - long-term styling, basal volume,
- Japanese chemistry
- biowave amino acid.
As you can see, there are many options, but which one should you prefer?
Temporary stacking
The easiest and most affordable option
Short-lasting curls can be screwed with the help of curling, curlers, ironing or hair dryer. If a cold curling of hair with a curler practically does not injure the structure of the strands, then the use of high temperatures of the hair dryer and forceps evaporates moisture, and the strands can become dry and brittle.
- Some types of hair curlers, for example, with a ceramic or tourmaline coating, do not practically damage the strands. Ceramic coating plates master even recommend for dry and brittle curls,
Important. If you use hot tongs and iron daily, you should definitely use heat protection sprays and make a moisturizing mask at least once a week.
Iron for soft, glamorous wave
- The styler can also be used to create spectacular curls, but this novelty is only suitable for long strands. Automatic hair curling guarantees resilient and effective, but, unfortunately, also unstable curl,
Council According to reviews, automatic stylers are not as comfortable as they are described. Many, having bought this expensive device, use it extremely rarely, returning to the curling iron.
- steam hair curling is an express method of creating an elastic curl in the salon. These are the same curlers, but twisted curls are soaked with fixative and processed with hot steam.
If you want every day to please yourself and those around you with beautiful styling, then it is better to give preference to chemical or “bio” curling, especially if the strands are thin and inconspicuous.
The most popular options for resistant perm
Easy negligence is popular in 2016
You can forget about all the horrors of burned out dull hair, the compositions for the permanent of the new generation in skillful hands are absolutely safe for hair. The main thing is to choose the formula and the percentage of the active substance, based on the individual characteristics of the strands.
Hair type and composition of active substances
Types of hair curls using active chemical reagents:
What is carving
Hair perm for a long time (carving) is performed using special gentle means, as well as hair curlers of different sizes. The wave has become popular due to its long lasting effect and the use of a “lightweight”, gentle composition.
Means for carving, in contrast to the classic perm, affects only the surface of the hair. Indications for the implementation of this procedure can be:
- unruly, thin curls, which after the procedure will acquire additional volume, pomp and natural waviness,
- hard strands that are hard to lay,
- oily hair - the procedure will make them a little drier,
- the desire to update your appearance without the use of potent chemical compounds,
- lack of time for daily hair styling.
Differences from perm
