Hair practise - Crimping

So this will look like a slightly repeated post as the first time I did crimping, was the first time I practised my final design. But in this blog post I will be discussing how I found crimping hair in general.

The day Lottie went to show us how to crimp hair, I was unfortunately ill and missed it. But I did some research on youtube and soon realised it should hopefully not be too hard. The next day I go in to class, we are asked to work in pairs and told to practise working designs on our partners hair. Knowing I hadn't had the chance to crimp yet, this was a perfect chance for me. 

So the picture below shows Amelia's hair on the left crimped and her natural hair (she has a lot of naturally curly hair !!!!). I was very surprised at how easy it was to use the crimping tongs. The texture of the hair feels weird and clearly dries the hair out, so I would recommended conditioning the hair loads. 

Here is the finished look of Amelia's being crimped. The most I struggled with crimping is sectioning her hair but that was because her is naturally curly/big. If I was to work on Amelia's hair for crimping, I would have sectioned her hair into smaller pieces. But overall I am a big fan of crimping hair now!
