Styling is natural, hair does not wrinkle, which is typical when using accessories while curling.

The method keeps the hair healthy as much as possible, it does not lose its naturalness, but it looks more well-groomed and gains volume from the root. The hairdresser works only with the root section, the rest of the area remains flat and smooth.
