Mode of application
Wash your hair with shampoo for deep cleaning without massaging the scalp. Rinse the shampoo thoroughly and remove excess moisture with a towel. Do not completely dry the hair, but keep in mind that the more moisture left on the hair, the more the bio-permanent on the hair will be diluted with this residual moisture. Before wrapping, treat the hair with a spray to align the structure of the CUREX Perm hair (if the hair is oily or normal) or with a balm to align the structure of the CUREX Perm hair (if the hair is dry), deliberately applying the product on the damaged and porous areas. After applying the spray, do not wash it off, it is better to wash off the balm.
ATTENTION! Use gloves. If the bio-permanent gets on the scalp, remove it with a damp cloth. Twist the strands of hair on the curlers, trying to wind the hair smoothly, with a slight tension. Keep in mind that the thinner the strand, the better it will saturate, and the more elastic and uniform the curl will be. After winding all the curlers soak each strand 2-3 times with a sufficient amount of bio-permanent, starting from the lower occipital zone.
When working with hair, you can use extra heat. On average, the exposure time from the time of impregnation of the last strand is:
- for difficult to give hair - 15 minutes (with heat), 25 minutes (without heat),
- for normal hair - 15 minutes (with heat), 25 minutes (without heat),
- for colored hair - 15 minutes (with heat), 25 minutes (without heat),
- for bleached and damaged hair - 10 minutes (with heat), 20 minutes (without heat).
ATTENTION! Periodic monitoring of the process of curl formation is extremely important and cannot be neglected. Moreover, the very first control should be carried out within 1-2 minutes after the start of the application of the bio-permanent. Spin the first bobbin on the back of your head and look at the strand. If a curl has just started to form, it means that you have correctly selected the composition, if after just 2 minutes you see a sharp curl formed, this means that the composition is too concentrated and the curling process goes too fast. It is necessary to quickly wash off the bio-permanent from the hair and use a weaker, sparing composition.
After the exposure time, rinse the hair thoroughly with hot water for at least 5 minutes without removing the hair curlers. Remove excess moisture with a towel.
For fixing the curls, restoring the pH balance of the scalp and hair and neutralizing the remnants of the bio-permanent, the universal fixer-permanent NIAGARA, used with any type of bio-permanent, is used. The fixative contains pro-vitamin B5, which helps restore the structure of the hair and protects the scalp.
ATTENTION! NIAGARA permanent fixative is produced in a concentrated form. Before use it is necessary to dilute it with water in the ratio 1: 1. Without dilution you will get a 1-2 tone hair clarification. After rinsing the curler do not remove. Fixation is made in the following order: Pour the required amount of fixer into non-metallic dishes, dilute it with water in a 1: 1 ratio and foam with a sponge. Using a sponge, beat the solution in until the foam is formed on the curlers, make sure that the hair is well soaked. The exposure time is 5-7 minutes. Remove the hair curlers and once again apply fixer solution to the hair for 5 minutes. Then rinse the hair with water and rinse it with shampoo for deep cleaning. To give your hair more elasticity, silkiness and shine, treat your hair with CUREX Perm balm.
I dreamed about you 7 years! Biowave (Estel Niagara) on hair of medium length and short! 4 months from the date of the procedure. What happened to the hair? Did they fall off?
I dreamed about the perm (if not more - about chemistry!) Years. Of course, there were also tentative attempts to make this procedure. But, coming to the salon, sitting down in the chair of “transformations” and voicing my Wishlist, I saw only the master's eyes, rounded by bewilderment, and heard only: “Well, you ruin your hair! Let's not.” I heard these words from 3 times masters. Did "well then just a hairstyle" and left empty-handed.
And then decided that hair is not teeth - grow back! Even if spoiled. This is my hair! I want - I damage them, I want - I restore. I do not want to restore - cut off. It's simple. I am not used to shaking over every inch of length. I can not walk a whole year with the same haircut. I am so bored. I need a change! Curling to be! I made this decision after pregnancy and patiently waited for my hormones to "calm down", and I would get the opportunity to make cherished curls.
About my hair
Thin with split ends, without much shine, dyed a hundred times, dirty on the second day of bathing, NOT straight, but NOT curly.
Volume - this is what I dreamed about in the first place. How to achieve it, if the hair by nature is not thick? Personally, I was always saved by short haircuts. I don’t really like long hair. They quickly bother me, interfere, and enrage (besides, they make my face shape heavier, as one hair maker said). I collect them in the tail, but my "licked" tail already enrages everyone else (husband: "again licked ?? Well, you dissolve your hair already!"mom:"With such silly tails only schoolgirls walk" etc. )
When should we refrain from biowave?
- During pregnancy and HB (it is not known how hormones will react and what you get on your head). And after the end of the GW it is desirable to have half a year (!). I suffered only 3 months.
- During menstruation
- Immediately after dyeing hair (waiting for 2 weeks after dyeing)
- Hair too battered by life is also better to regret, but this, I think, everyone understands
About biowave procedure
Biowave has a sparing effect on hair due to the fact that it does not contain aggressive substances such as thioglycolic acid and ammonia.
The main active component of the wave is cystine, which is similar in structure to the protein contained in human hair.
After the biowave procedure, the curls retain their naturalness, gloss and smoothness, their structure is not damaged.
The fact that the hair structure is not damaged directly is, of course, false. As I said "my" man in the cabin: "Nuuuu, yes, the procedure is gentle, like it does not harm the hair, but you understand. ,)"
I understand, of course! Go-go! Do the same already!
Here are some stages we are going through this process:
- Cleansing. No need to mess your hair for a perm. This rule is as old as
worldchemistry. - Applying the composition Estel Niagara, winding the strands on the curlers. The curlers took two diameters (larger and smaller) so that “one curl supported the other” and everything looked more natural.
Attention! Immediately after the procedure, do not wet your hair for 2 days! Do not dye hair 2 weeks - a month.
This is how I saw myself in the mirror immediately after removing the hair curlers:
Basis for laying
Biowave in general, all masters are positioning as the "basis for laying." With it, the curls that you THEN will curl will hold 10 times longer than usual.
And if you straighten your hair, an unprecedented and so desirable volume will appear:
Even the "licked tail" begins to play with new colors!
The rest of the curls will look something like this:
My hair after biowave. Have they spoiled?
Immediately make a reservation, my NOT the highest grade of the procedure is not at all due to “damage” property hair. I knew what was going on. She knew that my hair was waiting for a test. It is foolish to give a hair dryer a rating of 2, if it is a great dry hair. And he has such a task - to dry them. Well, you understood.
How many girls "kill" hair, monthly staining? And then in the course go stopitsot masochek, balzamchikov, home lamination jelly gelatin and others, other, other. And then we hear: "Nooo, Pallet / Garnier /Gutallin Grandmothers Agafya absolutely not ruined my hair! "
So with all THESE movements, you can be sure that your hair will not spoil even after curling.Well, that is, you heal them, do not turn away, dears, shine and recover
My hair on the first day after biowave and a couple of weeks later:
Brittleness was not noticed for all the time (4 months have passed since the procedure was completed).
Care! All for curly hair only? And if not?
"How long will my curl last?" - I asked the master immediately after the end of the "execution" in the cabin.
"If you use special tools for curly hair - a month 3. Otherwise - a month."
Shampoo-masks, balms for curly hair, I never bought. Something the hands did not reach Soap head with a mild shampoo without SLS (at the dacha at the dacha generally used the usual “Clean Line”). The masks were also my old, checked straight hair. And somehow 4 months behind, and the biowave is still with me.
In addition to masks, shampoos, balms and styling products, I had a vital moisturizing spray. Because My biowave came in the summer, I chose Estel Sun Flower "Spray moisturizing and protection from UV rays." I fled them from a painting called
Aunt Olya with chemistry was similar to a hedgehog (s) Vasya Oblomov
By the way, we get a hedgehog every time we try to thoroughly comb the hair with an ordinary massage. So remember another rule for curly: comb a mane comb with sparse teeth!
Here, after a month, probably, I started feeling sick that I was not combing my hair elementary! They are also long. Long curly and rare teeth! And in general, "do not brush often so that the curls are not deformed" By the way, if you use this hit hairbrush - throw it away for a while at the time of the biowave!
In short, the long hair finally got me and I went to their chik-chik! Especially because under the weight of its length, the curl began to "sag". But if I cut the length, then according to the promises of the master, the biowave should have gained momentum again. Because the curl is not weighted kaaaak jump, kaaaak jump !.
In my opinion, excellent stamina
I am happy as an elephant. And I do not regret at all that I decided to realize my long-time dream.
I will no longer do a biowave for long hair (for enrage and under weight the lock quickly hangs down), but for short ones - YES, YES, YES.
Change, cute girls! It is very uplifting

Vertical waving - features and benefits
The main distinguishing feature of such a perm is the way to twist the strands on the curler. To create curls apply special curlers, which are also called vertical. Such bobbins or hair curlers differ in a rather large long one, which allows you to wind the strand evenly and thoroughly soak the hair with the composition used.
In classical curling, the strands are wound from tips to roots. Because of this, less tight curls are produced in the root zone than on the tips of the strands. In the vertical curl cone-shaped curlers are used, which allow you to create a uniform tight curls along the entire length of the strands.
Vertical biowave has several advantages:
- Sparing composition gently affects the curls, changing the structure of the hair without damaging the protective layer of scales.
- The presence in the composition of useful nutritional components provides care for the hair.
- After curling curls kept for a long time (up to six months).
- Vertical curls beautifully frame the face.
- It creates the effect of "jumping" curls, springs, which make the hair airy, easy.
- Curls are not tangled.
- As the composition is washed out, the vertical curls straighten evenly. The hairstyle looks neat and well-groomed, up to a complete washout of the product.
This perm is suitable for hair of different lengths. The ability to choose different diameter curlers allows you to create vertical curls of different sizes.
Who is the vertical hair biowave suitable for?
Girls with a narrow face shape are recommended to choose small hair curlers to form vertical curls. For owners of a large person of rectangular or square shape, large curls are more suitable. Large-diameter curlers allow you to create vertical spiral curls that look natural. This hairstyle can be styled in different ways, changing style.
When choosing small bobbins, it should be borne in mind that such vertical curls, especially with straight parting in the center, emphasize the pronounced features of the face. To visually smooth coarse features, give preference to medium or large curls. Vertical biowave on medium hair and on strands of greater length on large curlers looks beautiful. Such curls give the image of femininity, emphasize the tenderness and romance of nature.
Biohairdressing Niagara Estel
Estel Niagara is a popular gentle remedy that hairdressers often use for vertical biowave. This product does not contain ammonium thioglycolate. Also in the composition there are no other potent substances that damage the hair structure, as in the case of acid or alkaline vertical chemistry.

Estele's biowave hair has several advantages compared with the use of more potent aggressive formulations. Active ingredients do not break the cuticle. Such drugs have a pH value close to neutral.

Vertical biowave Niagara - procedure steps
For curling using special vertical curlers or needles. The choice depends on what result you want to get. In the absence of the necessary skills, it is better to entrust this procedure to an experienced master. But if you wish, you can do this perm yourself. To do this, follow this guide. The curling procedure consists of several stages. For best results, follow each step in accordance with the instructions.
Diagnostics
At this stage, Estel chooses the drug, depending on the characteristics of the structure and condition of the hair. It is also important to consider the condition of the hair ends. If they are too dry and bitten, it is better to cut them before curling.
Also be sure to test for an allergic reaction. To do this, a small amount of the composition applied to the skin and on the strand. In the absence of signs of allergy, you can proceed to the next stage.
Shag preparation
At the next stage, the hair must be prepared for applying the composition. For cleansing the scalp and hair manufacturer recommends using Estel Essex shampoo. After mashing, the hair does not need to be dried. Lightly blot them with a towel.
Also, the manufacturer of the gentle preparations Estelle recommends using Therapy spray for hair prone to fat. If the strands are dry, you should use Estelle De Luxe Balsam. Such products contain wheat proteins, provitamin B5, collagen and a complex of other useful substances that restore damaged areas and help straighten the strand structure. The use of these tools is also necessary in order to protect the hair from the effects of the curling preparation and to reduce to zero the negative impact of some synthetic components.
Twisting on vertical curlers
Having prepared the composition, you can begin to wind the strands. Apply the product should be in protective gloves. If the composition gets on the skin, it should be immediately removed with a damp cloth.
Hair is divided into sections. Separating thin strands, they wind it vertically. The thinner the strand, the stronger the fixation of the curls. After the strand is twisted, it is treated with Estel Niagara. Apply the product conveniently with a sponge. It is necessary to wet abundantly so that the strand is completely soaked.
Twist the strands better from the lower occipital section. The tension when winding should not be too strong, but not weak. If the strands are long (more than 20 cm), first apply the composition on a straight strand, and then again on the wound. Otherwise, not all layers will be impregnated and it will not be possible to obtain uniform spiral curls.
On the hair of the occipital zone, curls form longer than on the locks of the temporal region. Therefore, the winding should be started from the back of the head, and the temporal zones should be processed at the very end.
Maintaining the composition
It is necessary to withstand the remedy for a certain time, periodically checking the fixation of curls. The holding time of the drug depends on the chosen agent and the effect or absence of an additional source of heat:
- for difficult-to-curl, for normal and dyed strands 15 minutes with heat and 25 minutes without heat,
- for weakened and discolored 10 minutes with heat and 20 minutes without heat.
If necessary, the aging time can be increased or, conversely, shortened. In any case, periodically spin one strand to evaluate the result. For control, choose strands on different parts of the head. After this time, the composition should be washed off with plenty of water.
To fix the shape of the vertical curls, to restore the pH balance of the hair, as well as to neutralize the scriber remaining on the hair, use the Estel Niagara fixative. Apply a sponge without removing the curlers. The presence of provitamin B5 in the composition of such a tool helps to restore the structure of the hair and improves the appearance of curls.
Fixative is sold in concentrated form. Before applying it should be diluted with water in equal quantities. To do this, use a plastic (non-metallic) container. Use a sponge to foam the resulting solution. After that, it is ready for use.
Maintain fixing means from 5 to 7 minutes. Then the hair curlers are removed and the hair is thoroughly washed with water. Apply balm Estel Essex.

Biowave hair Estel - reviews
Sofia, 29 years old
For about two years I could not get to my favorite hairdresser, as she is on the other side of the city, and I have a small child. From my sister I learned that in “our” hair salon they introduced Estel's bio-permanent curling service. As soon as I had the opportunity to escape, I immediately went to my beloved master for this procedure. I was permed with Niagara Estel No. 4 (for blondes with thin strands). The result is simply amazing: the effect is not the same as usual chemistry. Formed beautiful spirals that look very neat. Hair did not become fluffy, but additional volume appeared. Hair became visually thick. Great drug. I definitely recommend it to everyone.
Veronica, 26 years old
I did chemistry several times. I go vertical curls. But alkaline compounds severely damaged hair. At some point I even had to cut a large part of the strands. Over time, healthy hair industry, and I decided to make a vertical biowave. Master advised drug Estelle. I relied on her experience and knowledge and agreed. The result was beautiful springy curls. Hair did not look like a sponge. On the contrary, the hairstyle now looks much better: the hair seemed to have become healthier and stronger.
Svetlana, 34 years old
Really like Estel Niagara. Already several times did a biowave with this tool. It is suitable for vertical curling. Provides lasting effect. Persistence of curls depends on the type of hair. I curls hold for 4-6 months. The only drawback - the hair still needs special care. To keep a healthy look of a head of hair, after such a waving it is necessary to make masks and use specialized care products.
