Thanks girls for being so helpful, so it all boils down to
preferences. Good to know there's a lot of choices!
Rae- great pics!
What ProStyles told me, is to change the curl of the synth only
within 2 weeks after installing.
So if I installed the natural body, my client cannot spiral curl it
after 2 weeks. They say; " only change its texture while it's
still fresh"
Have you girls spiral curled straight synth after 2 weeks?
{Sorry for sounding so stupid, I wish I could do more practice,
but synth is not so popular with my clients }
Well, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "spiral curled." But in
general, I don't curl my PH or Dome at all within the first few weeks,
because I order the PH 50mm and the Dome Classic, both of which stay
wavy for about 2 weeks (or one wash). Then, after the second wash (at
the two week point), I reset it with velvet-covered hot rollers and
rawk that look till the next wash. And then, at 3 or 4 weeks or so,
I'll blow out the ends to make them smooth and then reset it again.
I've curled the hair at 9 weeks, and it was fine.
I used a curling iron on my first PlastikHaar batch, after testing the
iron and the heat (some irons are just too damned hot or inconsistent).
I curled it while wet. It works quite well, but you really have to be
careful because the risk of singeing the hair is pretty good otherwise;
the curl it creates is very stubborn (which is a good thing if you like
it). But generally, I just use the hot rollers instead, although I have
a set of jumbo Velcro rollers, which I'm planning to test with the
blow-dryer cap in a few weeks. I'll post pics afterward.
Spiraled curl is the very tight curls. I'm sure if you can reset the curl after 9 weeks and had no problem, than that Prohair "do not curl after 2 weeks" theory must be wrong. I hate it when these hair companies scare me like that.
I kept hearing so much about this forum that I had to join! It's much more user friendly for me than the Quinnster board....honestly, I've never participated over there because the black backgrounds and neon text drive me crazy [I feel like such an old lady complaining about backgrounds and text color...heh]
