Belajar Smoothing step by step Untuk pemula #by:QQ HAIRSTYLE SALON CARUBAN

Summary

In this video, Kiki demonstrates a step-by-step guide for smoothing curly, coarse, dry hair using Matrix products. The process involves analyzing hair condition, selecting the right product, careful application of the smoothing treatment, and using appropriate techniques to achieve the best results. Kiki emphasizes the importance of applying the product evenly, waiting the right amount of time, and using a flat iron to ensure the hair is fully treated. The video also highlights tips for achieving smooth, healthy hair and proper aftercare, including serum application and drying.

Takeaways

• 😀 Start by analyzing the hair condition before smoothing, noting that the hair in this tutorial is dry, coarse, and wavy.
• 😀 Choose the appropriate product based on hair type, such as Matrix with options for normal, resistant, extra resistant, and sensitive hair.
• 😀 Always leave a gap of about half a centimeter from the scalp when applying the smoothing treatment to avoid hair loss.
• 😀 Apply the treatment in layers, ensuring all hair is covered, especially the roots, which may need more product.
• 😀 The application process is crucial for the final result, as uneven or insufficient product application can affect the smoothness of the hair.
• 😀 After applying the product, wait for 60 minutes before checking whether the product has penetrated the hair.
• 😀 During processing, perform the smoothing step with gentle pressure to ensure even distribution, particularly at the roots.
• 😀 Use a flat iron at the right temperature (180-200°C) based on hair type and thickness, ensuring the hair is fully straightened.
• 😀 When straightening, pull each section carefully to achieve smoothness, checking the hair's flexibility to ensure it's fully processed.
• 😀 After smoothing and straightening, apply serum to the hair before drying and styling, ensuring it’s completely dry for the best results.
• 😀 After completing the smoothing process, avoid washing the hair for three days to maintain the smoothness and prevent any damage.

Q & A

What is the first step in the smoothing process?

The first step is to analyze the hair to assess its condition. This will help determine the appropriate smoothing product to use.

How do you determine which smoothing product to use?

The smoothing product is chosen based on the hair's condition. There are different products for normal, resistant, extra resistant, and sensitive hair types. For coarse, dry, and curly hair, a resistant product is typically used.

Why is it important to keep the smoothing product away from the scalp?

The smoothing product should not touch the scalp because it can cause hair loss over time. A small gap, about half a centimeter, should be left between the product and the scalp.

What is the significance of applying the smoothing product evenly?

Applying the smoothing product evenly is crucial for achieving consistent results. Uneven application can lead to inconsistent smoothing, especially in areas like the roots, which may require more product.

How do you check if the product has absorbed into the hair properly?

To check if the product has absorbed, you pull a strand of hair. If it stretches and returns to its original shape, the product hasn't fully absorbed. If it stays stretched, the product is properly absorbed.

What is the purpose of the 'two-finger' technique during the smoothing process?

The two-finger technique is used to ensure the smoothing product is applied evenly and to add more product to the roots where it is needed most. It helps achieve a more consistent application throughout the hair.

How long should you leave the smoothing product on the hair?

The smoothing product should be left on the hair for about 60 minutes, or until it has fully absorbed, as determined by checking the hair's elasticity.

What is the ideal temperature when flat ironing the hair?

The ideal temperature for flat ironing depends on the hair type. For resistant hair, the temperature should be between 180-200°C. The temperature should be adjusted based on the thickness of the hair and the flat iron's specifications.

How do you know when the hair is fully straightened after flat ironing?

You can tell when the hair is fully straightened by the ease of movement when you pull the iron through. If the hair feels smooth and doesn’t resist, it indicates the hair has been adequately straightened.

What is the purpose of the neutralization step after flat ironing?

Neutralization ensures that any remaining product is neutralized, helping to lock in the smoothing effect. This step is essential to prevent damage and maintain the hair’s smooth texture.
