Kinds
In total there are three types of corrugation for medium hair:
- small;
- the average;
- large.
Each species looks completely different, and this must be taken into account when creating hairstyles.
Small
Small corrugation - this is the best solution for short strands, but many girls perform it on the hair of medium length. A characteristic feature of small curls is that they instantly give hair volume. That is why small corrugation is quite suitable for ladies with thin hair.
Nevertheless, experts advise not to get involved in this type of curls full or chubby girls, especially with thick hair.
A large head of hair, still further enlarged, will visually round the face.
The average
Medium corrugation is a good alternative to small ones. This hairstyle looks very neat, but here the word “curls” will be completely inappropriate; rather, these are some waves. The average type of technology is a universal solution for girls with any type of face and hair. The waves lie beautifully, and are generally a bit like African styling types.
Often, the average corrugation is also used to create volume at the roots.
Large
According to many women, large corrugation looks the most soft and natural. However, only locks slightly below the shoulder blades are suitable for its creation. Large corrugation is especially recommended for girls with already dense hairSince there is no special volume here, only an exquisite and spectacular wave.
For a more interesting hairstyle, you can always combine two variants of the corrugation.
For example, at the roots you can make large, and the rest of the hair - small. Beautifully look and hairstyles with a small corrugation, where a few strands highlights the average or large technique.
