BEACHY WAVES! STEP 1: Select two different rod sizes: a smaller rod for the horizontal position and a larger rod for the vertical position. Establish a center or side part. Using the length of the rod, create sections from the center or side part, down.

STEP 2: Starting with the smaller rods, take a horizontal parting and divide it into three subsections. Wrap both subsections on each side of the middle section.

STEP 3 Go back to the middle of your section and pick up the two horizontal unwrapped partings. Split into two vertical partings. Wrap the larger rod so that it rests vertically on the horizontally wrapped rods. Continue to wrap remaining hair in that section vertically.

STEP 4 Follow the same procedure around the entire head. The completed wrap should resemble railroad tracks. Apply and process perm according to directions on perm box.

STEP 1: THE ROD The “Double Halo” or “Double Horseshoe” wrap is recommend- ed for the Rod-to-Roller transfer. This wrap closely follows the contour of the head. The sections will be no wider than the rod. This will ensure a minimum amount of hair on each rod. Process according to direc- tions on perm box until test curl indicates processing is complete. Rinse and towel blot. Air neutralize 5 min.

STEP 2: TRANSFER TO THE ROLLER The roller size used depends on the final style desired and on the hair texture and strength. Use smooth rollers and secure with plastic clips. Remove a small section of the rods at one time. Apply Moistureze Wrapping Lotion and comb hair smoothly from the scalp. Generally, two rods can be transferred to one roller. While directing rollers into the desired style, your roller partings should be different from the rod partings. This will eliminate the rod marks. Pin curls may be used on shorter designs.

STEP 3: When the transfer is complete, spray the inside of a plastic bag with water and wrap around rollers. Place under a dryer and do a test curl (first roller); 5 min. for open curl; 7 min. for a wave and 10 min. or more for just a bend. The hair should be smooth, and have the size and shape of the roller. Remove plastic bag and proceed with neutralizing.
