11. Coiffure
to be styled determines number of curls in back. Make sure all
the hair has styling lotion on it, not just the top layer. |
12. If
wave is desired in back, place and form it wherever desired.
Anchor firmly into place with hairpins*.
*This
definitely requires an assistant. The pincurls will be put in
up to the row of pins. |
13. To
assure tight, firm curls at nape of neck, use orangewood stick*
instead of regular curl stick for winding.
*Again,
this is the first time I've seen mention of any tools used in
pin curls, but from the pictures, they make nice even tidy curls. |
14. Note
finished curl pattern. Number of curls depends on style you are
creating. Observe small pin curls around nape of neck. |
15. Towel
dry* curls to remove excess moisture.
* Blot
dry, don't rub! You'll dislodge all your hard work. |
16. Place
a large hair net over head, being extremely careful not to disturb
any of the curls. |
|
23. Sit
under dryer* until hair is thoroughly dry. You are then ready
to remove hair net and comb hair into required hairstyle.
* You
can pick up a portable bonnet dryer at most thrift shops for
$5, and at the larger shops you can even find a salon chair
for cheap. Or head to eBay for a vintage
hair dryer. |
