We promise to deliver the highest quality, professional-only products available anywhere. We back up this pledge with the best service and education in the industry. Tressa’s Systems approach to permanent waving, coloring, and hair care products has given us recognition as a leader in the industry. Our products help designers gain confidence and increase profits.  \nTressa was the first to develop a Perm System with just the right number of permsto cover the spectrum of your client needs. Our Perm System’s logical approach allows you to customize. You can promise all your clients they will love their perm from day one.  \nTressa products are easy to use. They follow a simple system that gives consistent, predictable results… so you can get on with your creativity!  \n2  \nW A V E  \nM A N U A L T H E Q U E S T F O R C U R L  \nThe Quest for Curl  \nThe quest for curl goes back at least to the Egyptians, who tried winding wet locks around sticks  \nand then baking them in the hot sun. Several thousand years of experimenting later, a more  \npermanent form of waving arrived.  \nJust after the turn of this century, a London hairdresser introduced a curling method that could resist water, washing and atmospheric conditions. The hair was soaked in an alkaline solution, rolled on heavy iron rods suspended over the head, and heated to some 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This “permanent” took all day, frequently caused burns and sometimes when the curlers came off, the hair did too.  \nThroughout the 20th century, our industry has perfected and refined this process. In the 1920’s scientists began to experiment with combining reactive chemicals to create exothermic heat for permanent waving. This eliminated the need for electrically heating the wound curls. As better formulas helped assure safer and more easily controlled chemical reactions, heatless products were pursued as ideal. The technology on which modern perming rests was developed around  \n1940. Cold waving, involving a group of chemicals known as “thios,” works by breaking key chemical","cbCaird4Y8s7XTqD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaird4Y8s7XTqD","pdf",3048269,48,"English","# INTRODUCTION\n# THE QUEST\n# TEXTURE 1-2-3\n# PERM SYSTEM\n# PERM CHART\n# CLIENT CONSULTATION\n# THE MECHANICS OF PERMING\n# ADD-ON SERVICES\n# CLASSIC TECHNIQUES\n# APPENDIX A-CHEMISTRY OF THE HUMAN HAIR","[{\"question\":\"What is the focus of the Wave and Texture Manual?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on Tressa’s systems approach to permanent waving and texture, emphasizing predictable perm results, hair condition, and supporting education and services.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the manual explain the “quest for curl”?\",\"answer\":\"It traces curling attempts from ancient winding methods through later permanent waving developments, highlighting chemical and technology advances leading to modern cold waving.\"},{\"question\":\"What does Texture 1•2•3 cover?\",\"answer\":\"It presents quality, profitability, and a systems approach, describing how a structured perm and support product system improves outcomes and client satisfaction.\"}]","Wave Manual - Tressa Wave and Texture Manual | PDF",1791909588]
