He althy, shiny, thick hair has always been an essential attribute of beauty. However, there is a paradox - everything that makes our curls beautiful harms them. Styling with tools, heat from a hair dryer, negative environmental factors - this leads them to a sad state. Curls become dry, brittle, begin to split and break. There are many ways to restore, but in addition to masks, lamination and keratin care, another effective procedure has appeared - cutting split ends all over the curls. For this, a hairdresser's hair polishing machine is used. What kind of device it is and what effect it has on the hair, consider below.
Split End Problem
As practice shows, many women face the problem of split ends asjust starting to grow curls. It is believed that with a length of more than 30 cm, the natural protective lubricant no longer reaches the very tips, and as a result, they are dry, brittle and damaged. Until recently, it was believed that the best way out is a regular haircut. But this does not bring us closer to the desired length. What to do? Modern masters offer a new service that allows you to solve the problem of hair separation without loss of length - polishing. And for this, a special device is used - a hair polishing machine.
How the device works
Such a machine is a device, or rather a nozzle, which is put on a classic clipper. The special design allows her to cut split, broken curls, while maintaining the main length. It should be noted that even if the stratified hairs are shorter than the main length, the device will cut them. It is impossible to achieve this effect with a regular haircut.
Polishing can be presented as an independent service and as an additional one, after coloring, keratin straightening or a regular haircut. It can also be combined with salon procedures for the care and restoration of curls, then the effect will be more long-term and effective.
Hair polisher: service price
This service is quite affordable and is already becoming available in many beauty salons and hairdressers. The cost consists of several factors and can average from 400 to 1500 rubles. It all depends on the thickness andthe length of your curls, their condition, from the experience of the master. A professional with experience can spend 30 minutes on the procedure, and a novice master 1 hour or more. The location of the cabin, its level also affects. So, the price of polishing short hair in a regular hairdresser can be 300-600 rubles. For long curls, the cost will be 1000 rubles and more.
A nozzle for a hair polishing machine costs an average of 1,700 rubles. It is very convenient that it can be used at home, especially since the algorithm of the device is very simple.
Features of the polishing procedure
This device has become a real salvation for many girls, and the procedure itself is gaining more and more popularity. Polishing begins with washing the hair and drying it with a hair dryer. After that, you need to straighten them using an iron. When the curls are laid, you can proceed directly to work with the device. The hair polishing machine (the price for it was indicated) works qualitatively only on dry, elongated strands. It is most convenient to start the procedure from the lower occipital area, separating the rest of the curls with clips. Each strand is clamped with a toothed nozzle and polished to complete smoothness. If the haircut is graduated, it is necessary to pull the curls down. Conversely, with a uniform length, the strands are pulled down.
The advantage of this service is that the quality of the hair is maintained for a long time. Depending on the condition of the curls and the total length, the effect lasts from 3 to 6 months. Hair polisher removes 90%damaged areas and significantly improves the appearance of the hairstyle. As practice shows, keratin care and even a wellness haircut with hot scissors do not give a similar effect.
When polishing, the tips 3-10 mm long are removed along the entire length of the hair. It is known that ordinary scissors form a loose cut. And due to the fact that the knives of the machine cut the hair evenly, their structure is not damaged. In the future, this prevents splitting and brittleness.
Which machines are suitable for polishing hair?
The name of the special polishing head is HG Polishen. It is suitable for various models of Moser, Ermila and Wahl machines. In general, it is designed for a working block length of 45-46 mm. It is desirable that the knife be straight, without protrusions and bends. If these requirements are met, then the tip will hold perfectly on any model.
The hair polisher makes curls smoother and more well-groomed. The effect is noticeable after the first procedure. Curls stop pricking, fluffing and sticking out, they become pleasant to the touch. You can repeat the polishing procedure as needed or as a preventive measure, since there are no contraindications and necessary requirements for it. Many masters compare this care with the keratin straightening procedure, because the hair becomes neat and well-groomed.
