Japanese perm hair: technology, pros and cons

At the beginning of the last century, hairdresser Nessler created a device for perm, which made a real revolution in the beauty industry. Women did not spare the hair, the structure of which was damaged a lot during the curl, but the effect was impressive. A century has passed, and those wishing to become owners of curls have not diminished. But technology has changed. Today biowave can be curative, which is clearly demonstrated by Japanese technology.

In the main this method - the most careful attitude to the hair, despite the fact that the effect of hairstyle lasts a long time. The unique composition used in the Japanese chemical curling hair, makes it possible to resort to this procedure, even for women with thin and weakened locks. But the hard, unyielding hair is also well perceived Asian technology.

The essence of the biowave created in Japan is to change the structure of the hair itself without affecting it with alkali. The base component is selected. matrix Technologists have managed to synthesize this extracellular substance from human hair cells. It is the matrix that perfectly straightens and resumes sulphide bridges (the so-called link between scales) without a destructive effect on the keratin layer.

Other substances also are a part of a mix for a wave.

• Keratin. It is a protein substance that makes up 90% of the structure of human hair. It is responsible for the strength and elasticity of the hair. Thanks to the keratin ingredient, the Japanese biowave is considered curative and gentle, unlike the inexpensive alternative "chemistry."
• Betaine. This substance is a natural hair moisturizer. Without it, in hot weather, the curls could quickly turn into straw. Betaine, in addition to organizing the supply of moisture to the hair, also neutralizes the level of homocysteine, a toxic agent.
• Cystine amino acid. Significantly improves the hair structure, catalyzes regeneration processes, and silicon, which is also contained in the mixture, cements the effect.
• Lecithin. It is the main component of the cell membrane in the human body, nourishes the hair.
• Wheat proteins. Protein molecules perfectly condition the hair, strengthen it, reduce the aggressive influence of external negative factors on the curls.

The main advantage of the drug, through which the hair takes the desired form, is its lipid complex. It is really able to revitalize the hair, restore the structure and even fill the microcracks in it, moisturize and protect it from the negative influence from the outside. Often the Japanese perm is called amino acid, neutral. The fact that the developers abandoned the alkali, the main advantage of this method.

But without flaws, it was not.

1. No matter how the hair structure changes, it is always stressful for him. Therefore, the ideal solution is to maintain a natural structure, choosing the right care and styling products. But if perm aesthetically makes your hairstyle more spectacular, then for safety reasons, do not do "chemistry" more than twice a year.
2. The price of Japanese biowave is quite high.On average, such a procedure will cost the client a hairdresser 7-9 thousand rubles, and this is by the most conservative estimate.
3. After the curls have acquired a different structure, their care will change. The specialist will recommend the client a new shampoo, balms and fixatives. This is done not so much for hair restoration, as for prolonging the effect of curling.
4. Comb, too, will have to change. Massage brush does not fit, you need a comb with rare teeth. Wooden models are preferred.
5. It is forbidden to blow-dry hair. If you want to speed up the drying of hair with a hair dryer, curls will not last 5-6 months, they will straighten much faster.

In contrast to neutral perm - alkaline and acidic. The first leads in the ranking of the most harmful perm. As part of its ammonia, which fairly loosens hair. It is necessary that the current mixture penetrated into the structure and consolidated. As a result of such a perm, the cuticular layer is significantly affected, and the curls become dry and porous. If the master lacks experience, the risk of “burning” the hair is very big.

Acid perm is softer in its action, but unlike alkaline, it does not do without high-temperature exposure. Therefore, the alkaline method is called cold, and the acid - hot. But you will not call him sparing either, although he dries his hair less. A significant minus of acid perm is its fragility, with a new hairstyle you can go a little more than a month.

Japanese perm (also called matrix) wins from its competitors. The principal difference of this technology is that the composition does not destroy the hair, but stretches it. Two distinct benefits of matrix perm are minimal negative effects on hair and durability. They became the reason for the popularity of the method, and cheaper options are becoming a thing of the past.

For hairdressers offering a Japanese bio-waving service, the price should indicate the specific base tool. For example, Evolution Goldwell. This is an innovative composition that will suit the locks of any structure. The main effect of the treatment-modeling mixture is self-regulation technology with a patented system of cationic polymers (which gives protection even to very damaged hair fragments).

Right during the procedure, the client's hair is conditioned and moisturized. The remedy does not have a characteristic chemical smell, the aroma of the mixture is pleasant, unobtrusive, it is associated by many with spa treatments for hair.

Another possible Japanese perm composition is Tocosme. Cysteamine hydrochloride, which is a synthetic substitute for the amino acid cysteine, is taken as the basic ingredient. It transforms the structure of the hair only in part, not acting on the core, because the effect on the curls gentle. Keratin-2, also present in the formula of the mixture, renews molecular bonds in the hair.

Generously supplemented the composition of Tocosme with a selection of nutritious phyto oils. They allow you to protect your hair during the procedure. Equally well stretchable and short hair, and long, and thick, and thin.

The algorithm of technology with any composition will be almost the same.

1. First, the wizard diagnoses the condition of the client’s hair and scalp. If there are fresh wounds, abrasions, irritation, the procedure can not be carried out. As well as assessment of the field of work helps to choose the optimal composition.
2. The next stage is shampooing. If you apply the composition to dirty hair, a thin oily layer will not allow the mixture to penetrate into the hair structure.
3. Using curling curlers, the master models curls at the request of the client.You can make curls of different sizes.
4. After all the curls are wound on the bobbins, the master puts on them the selected composition - it must be kept for a certain time (depends on the preparation).
5. Then the hair is thoroughly washed with a special keratin shampoo, a curling agent is applied to the curls, which is responsible for the resistance of the new hairstyle.
6. The hair is dried with a hairdryer (at this stage possible), moistened with a spray.

The procedure takes about three hours. This moment depends on the length and thickness of the hair, the selected composition, skills of the master. But you should not expect less time, the process is difficult to speed up.

At least two days after curling can not wash your hair. Should refrain from moisture and steam. These days try not to fall under the rain, not to wear heavy hats, not to dwell in the kitchen, where the oven works without an extractor hood.

This perm is suitable for almost everyone, and its therapeutic component allows you to turn to the master even for women with thin, weakened, lifeless hair. For a long time, the owners of stubborn hard hair could not even dream of a biowave, no composition showed convincing results. Japanese technology has been tested on a huge number of women with tough hair: this structure of Asian hair is widespread among Asians.

There are also contraindications to a sparing biowave.

• Gestation and lactation. If a woman is in a position, if she is breastfeeding a child, going to the hairdresser with such a radical goal as perm will have to be postponed. Theoretically, this can be harmful, it is not worth the risk.
• Hormone therapy. This includes taking oral contraceptives. The ban is not categorical, but many masters in such a situation warn clients about a possible unpredictable result.
• Allergic to formula. A woman should tell the master about the potential allergic reaction.
• Menstrual period. At this time, even the usual painting can be unsuccessful, waving - even more so. This is due to a special hormonal activity.
• Previous staining with basma and henna. Natural dyes are so deeply embedded in the hair that any subsequent impact on the curl can conflict with particles of Basma and henna. But this is not so much a ban as a warning, in each particular case the specialist will determine the risks.

If the client insists on curling, despite the warnings of the master, you can make a control sample. The hairdresser forms a curl on one strand, the results can be drawn. In the case of an allergic reaction, a preliminary sensitivity test is possible. Make it in the area of ​​the elbow bend, the master puts a little of the composition on the skin and waits for about 20 minutes.

To perm lasted longer, you need to take care of it. You can not wash your hair under strong pressure of water, you should not beat the shampoo until the volume of foam, it is not recommended to strongly rub the hair with a towel. Since curled hair is often confused, each session of shampooing should include the use of an air conditioner - this makes combing easier.

Biowave on the Japanese technology is definitely less dangerous than its somewhat outdated counterparts. The method allows you to transform the hair of different types, different lengths and thicknesses.
