Biowave is carried out in three stages.

• Preparation... At this stage, the master assesses the condition of the hair and chooses the optimal means for biowaving. After that, an allergy test is required on the skin and individual strands.To do this, the solution is applied for 15-25 minutes on the wrist area or the place of the elbow bend, as well as on a thin strand selected from the back of the head.

If the skin does not have any painful sensations, redness and swelling, and the strand has not changed its color and structure, then you can safely use the drug for the procedure. Immediately before curling, the hair should be washed with a professional deep shampoo: this will allow the strands to be prepared as best as possible for the penetration of the main components of the preparation.

• Perm... Next, you need to divide the hair into separate strands and wind each one on a bobbin, then apply an active solution and leave for a quarter of an hour. During this time, the synthetic protein penetrates into the hair shaft, changing its structure, and replaces part of the natural protein bonds. Under the influence of active components, the curl changes its shape and is able to maintain a new shape for quite a long time.
• Fixation... After 15 minutes, the hair is thoroughly washed with running water, without unwinding the curlers, immediately after that a fixative is applied to them, which seals the hair scales, and also restores the water composition and acidity of the strands. The retainer is kept for 10 minutes, after which the bobbins are removed, wait another 5 minutes and the hair is thoroughly washed. After completing all the manipulations, you should treat your hair with a conditioner balm.

• the use of irons, pans and hair dryers for styling;
• weaving braids;
• picking up strands in a tight bun.
