Waving a "Lokon"

On how to make a perm at home (photo of the result of the procedure can be seen below), we will go further. To conduct the procedure, you should:

• Divide the hair into several parts. Each strand is processed by "Lokon", combed and wound on bobbins (hair curlers). After all the head of hair is wound, it is covered with a plastic cap and a towel. From this moment the time of the wave is counted.
• The exposure period for all hair is different. On soft strands the drug is kept for up to 20 minutes, on a normal type of hair - up to 16-18 minutes, on hard curls - no more than 10-12 minutes.
• After this time, several curls should be deployed in different parts of the head and the degree of curl. If the curl did not form, then the strand is wound on the curlers again. The next waving control is carried out after five minutes. So do until the curl does not get the right shape. The maximum time of soaking the "Loaf" on the hair is 45 minutes.
• After the formation of the curls, the wigging agent is washed off without removing the curlers or bobbins, trying not to mix strands with each other. The towel is applied to the hair to collect the remains of moisture.

After waving the strands go to the neutralization stage of the chemical.

Carrying out neutralization

To carry out neutralization, you need:

• A third of a teaspoon of lemon dissolved in the fourth part of a glass of water. Prior to the powdered state, grind 4 tablets of hydroperite and add them to the solution from citric acid. Add another quarter of a glass of water and half a teaspoon of shampoo. That's all - the composition for neutralization is ready.
• Neutralizer moistens every strand abundantly. The procedure is carried out twice, having spent exactly half of the prepared solution on the hair. After processing, the hair is left for ten minutes.
• After this time, the curls are released from the curlers and wetted with the remnants of the solution. Withstand the catalyst for five more minutes.

To fix the curls, you can replace the hydroperite with perhydrol. Here, a half teaspoon of lemon is diluted in a quarter of a glass of water and add 1.5 teaspoons of perhydrol. Another ½ cup of water is added to the resulting formulation. The length and thickness of the scalp is influenced by the consumption of the neutralizing agent. The prepared composition should be used immediately and not subject to storage.

Fixation procedure

In order to fix the result, a third of a teaspoon of lemon juice is dissolved in a liter of boiled water and carefully rinsed with this solution hair. This operation is repeated 3-4 times. The hair after such treatment is soft and supple, it remains only to comb and lay them.
