13
Mobility of a curl The stem is what determines the mobility or movement of the curl The stem is what determines the mobility or movement of the curl There are 3 classifications of curl mobility: There are 3 classifications of curl mobility: no-stem curl no-stem curl half-stem curl half-stem curl full-stem curl full-stem curl
14
No Stem No Stem placed directly on the base of the curl placed directly on the base of the curl produces a tight, firm, long-lasting curl produces a tight, firm, long-lasting curl allows minimum mobility allows minimum mobility
15
15 Half Stem Half Stem medium movement medium movement circle is placed half off the base circle is placed half off the base gives good control to the hair gives good control to the hair 15
16
16 Full Stem Full Stem greatest mobility greatest mobility curl is placed completely off the base curl is placed completely off the base base may be square, triangular, half-moon, or rectangular base may be square, triangular, half-moon, or rectangular Gives as much freedom as the length of the stem will permit, if it is exaggerated the hair near the scalp will be flat Gives as much freedom as the length of the stem will permit, if it is exaggerated the hair near the scalp will be flat this curl is used to give hair a strong definite direction this curl is used to give hair a strong definite direction
17
Shaping A section of hair that is molded in a circular movement in preparation for the formation of curls A section of hair that is molded in a circular movement in preparation for the formation of curls Are either open ended or closed ended Are either open ended or closed ended Always begin a pin curl at the open end or convex side of a shaping Always begin a pin curl at the open end or convex side of a shaping
18
Open / Closed Center Curls Open center curls produce even smooth waves and uniform curls Open center curls produce even smooth waves and uniform curls Closed center curls produce waves that get smaller in size toward the end. They are good for fine hair, if a fluffy curl is desired Closed center curls produce waves that get smaller in size toward the end. They are good for fine hair, if a fluffy curl is desired

Pin Curl Procedure
33
Anchoring pins To anchor pin curls start at the open end of the curl – this is the side opposite the stem To anchor pin curls start at the open end of the curl – this is the side opposite the stem The clip should enter the circle parallel to the stem The clip should enter the circle parallel to the stem To avoid a dent in the curl avoid pinning across the circle To avoid a dent in the curl avoid pinning across the circle If clips touch the skin place cotton under them before placing client under the dryer If clips touch the skin place cotton under them before placing client under the dryer
34
Stand up Curls used to create height used to create height they are fastened to the head in a standing position to allow hair to flow upward and then downward they are fastened to the head in a standing position to allow hair to flow upward and then downward size of the curl determines the amount of height in the comb-out size of the curl determines the amount of height in the comb-out
35
35 Barrel Curls have a large center opening and are fastened to the head in a standing position on a rectangular base have a large center opening and are fastened to the head in a standing position on a rectangular base is similar to a roller but does not have the same tension as a roller when it is set is similar to a roller but does not have the same tension as a roller when it is set 35
36
Roller Curls Advantages Use to create many of the same effects as stand-up pin curls Use to create many of the same effects as stand-up pin curls Roller holds the equivalent of two to four stand-up curls Roller holds the equivalent of two to four stand-up curls Faster way to set hair Faster way to set hair Hair is wrapped around the roller with tension which gives a longer-lasting effect Hair is wrapped around the roller with tension which gives a longer-lasting effect Come in variety of shapes and sizes, which broadens the creative possibilities for styles Come in variety of shapes and sizes, which broadens the creative possibilities for styles

Roller Placement The size of the roller and how it sits on its base will determine the volume achieved The size of the roller and how it sits on its base will determine the volume achieved General rule – larger the roller the greater the volume General rule – larger the roller the greater the volume There are three basic roller placements or bases: On Base, Half Base, Off Base There are three basic roller placements or bases: On Base, Half Base, Off Base Special roller placement is indentation Special roller placement is indentation
45
On Base For full volume the roller is placed directly on its base For full volume the roller is placed directly on its base Over direct (higher than 90 degrees) the strand slightly in front of the base and then roll the hair down to the base Over direct (higher than 90 degrees) the strand slightly in front of the base and then roll the hair down to the base
46
46 Half Base For medium volume For medium volume The roller sits halfway on its base, and halfway behind its base. The roller sits halfway on its base, and halfway behind its base. Hold the strand straight up from the head (90 degrees) and roll the hair down Hold the strand straight up from the head (90 degrees) and roll the hair down 46
47
47 OFF BASE Least volume Least volume The roller sits completely off the base The roller sits completely off the base Hold the strand 45% down from the base and roll the hair down Hold the strand 45% down from the base and roll the hair down 47
48
Indentation Placement of rollers on the head usually follows the movement of the finished style Placement of rollers on the head usually follows the movement of the finished style is the point where curls of opposite directions meet forming a recessed area, this is often found in a flip style is the point where curls of opposite directions meet forming a recessed area, this is often found in a flip style
