acid-balanced waves
|
perms with a 7.8 to 8.2 pH range that process at room temperature; do not require hair dryer heat
|
|
alkaline or cold waves
|
perms that process at room temperature without heat with a pH range between 9.0 and 9.6
|
|
ammonium thioglycolate (ATG)
|
main active ingredient or reducing agent in alkaline waves
|
|
base control
|
the position of the perm rod in relation to its base section
|
|
base cream
|
protective cream used on the scalp during hair relaxing
|
|
base direction
|
angle at which the perm rod is positioned on the head; also the directional pattern in which the hair is wrapped
|
|
base relaxers
|
relaxers that require the use of a base or protective cream
|
|
base sections
|
subsections of panels into which the hair is divided for rodding; one tool is normally placed on each base section
|
|
basic perm wrap
|
rodding pattern in which all the tools within a panel are directed in the same direction
|
|
bookend wrap
|
perm wrap in which an end paper is folded in half over the hair ends
|
|
chemical blow-out
|
combination of a relaxer and hairstyling used to create a variety of Afro styles
|
|
chemical hair relaxing
|
the process of rearranging the basic structure of extremely curly hair into a straightened form
|
|
chemical texture services
|
hair services that cause a chemical change that permanently alters the natural wave pattern of the hair
|
|
croquignole rodding
|
rodding from the hair ends to the scalp
|
|
end wraps
|
end paper; absorbent papers used to protect and control the ends of the hair during perming services
|
|
endothermic waves
|
perm activated by an outside heat source, usually a hood-type dryer
|
|
exothermic waves
|
perms that create an exothermic chemical reaction that heats the solution and speeds up processing
|
|
glyceryl monothioglycolate (GMTG)
|
main active ingredient in true acid and acid-balanced waves
|
|
hydroxide relaxers
|
relaxers with a very high pH, sometimes over 13
|
|
lanthionization
|
process by which hydroxide relaxers permanently straighten hair; lanthionzation breads the hair's disulfied bonds during processing and converts them to lanthionine bonds when the relaxer is rinsed from the hair
|
|
lotion wrap
|
permanent waving wrapping technique in which the waving solution is applied to the section before rodding
|
|
neutralization
|
process of stopping the action of a permanent wave solution and hardening the hair in its new form by the application of a chemical solution called the neutralizer
|
|
no-base relaxers
|
relaxers that do not require application of a protective base
|
|
permanent waving
|
a process used to chemically restructure natural hair into a different wave pattern
|
|
prewrap solution
|
usually a type of leave-in conditioner that may be applied to the hair prior to permanent waving to equalize porosity
|
|
reformation curl
|
a soft-curl permanent; combination of a thio relaxer and thio permanent, whereby the hair is wrapped on perm rods; used to make existing curl larger and looser
|
|
texturize
|
a process used to semistraighten extremely curly hair into a more manageable texture and wave pattern
|
|
thio relaxers
|
relaxers that usually have a pH above 10 and higher concentration of ammonium thioglycolate than is used in permanent waving
|
|
true acid waves
|
perms that have a pH between 4.5 and 7.0 and require heat to speed processing; process more slowly than alkaline waves and do not usually produce as firm a curl
|
