COSMETOLOGY: CURLING IRON PROCEDURE for STATE BOARD






Step-by-step instruction/class/ training for Beauty School Students, graduates, and foreign cosmetology students to pass the curling iron part of the Blow Dry and Thermal Curling Iron procedure, to get their cosmetology license. At the beginning of the procedure, the examiner would read you the instructions; listen carefully! She would give you 2 minutes to set up, and 10 minutes to finish this procedure. Start only when she will tell you to "start." The requirements state that the applicant/student needs to demonstrate curling 3 curls on the top of the hair previously blow dried during Blow Dry part of this procedure and 4 curls on the side of the hair. The subsection needs not to exceed 3 inches. The temperature of the curling iron needs to be checked on a piece of paper for safety (not to burn the hair). The scalp needs to be protected from the curling iron barrel by using an all purpose or rat tail comb. The croquignole curl could be achieved by starting at the root are of the hear (do not touch the scalp) and curling up the hair strand, periodically clicking the curling iron to not have indentation on the hair. The drape could be changed if soiled. All sanitation and client protection precautions need to be followed. The soiled implements would go into the Soiled Implement Box (labeled the same way). Once you are done with the procedure; step away from your model to indicate the completion of your work. As always, wait for your examiner's instructions. Good luck ...

    It's only one of the options, you don't have to pin the hair if you don't want to. Best of luck with your test.

    I don't think they would check if you have hair spray on the hair before the test, my only concern is that it might get into a reaction with the cholesterol or any other simulated product; (some might have gel mixed with a conditioner) and it might flake the hair. Another concern is, that when you cut the hair, the hair will slip off of your hands, or your slippery hands might drop the scissors. It is an interesting question, though.

  14. Are we allowed to put some hair spray on the mannequin before going to the state board? Hair spray helps with the curls. Thank you.

    You don't have to follow the sample, you don't even need to pin the curls. Just curl with the curling iron, and you are done. This video is just one way; there are many teachers, many ways, as long as they follow the state board guidelines. You can also follow your teacher's guideline at school. Whatever works for you, but, remember, you don't have to pin the curls.

  16. I notice the positions of the curls are different on the sample illustration site (nictesting site). Do we have to strictly follow the sample or can we position the curls like what you do? Thank you.

  17. I found out it is not required. One student used the spring curling iron and she got 100% on Thermal Curling.

  22. This is called croquignole curl; it is the kind of curl that is wound overlapping the hair on one curl to the other on the curling iron barrel. The spiral curl swirls around the barrel.

  23. Croquignole Curling. It is the one that the hair is wound overlapping all curls together on the rod. The kind that the hair does not overlap, and spirals down is the spiral curl.

    I am not sure about Georgia state board. It would be best to check Georgia state board website; if they have adapted the NIC cosmetology test, then this is the same.
