Equipment used:

How to CRIMP HAIR with a HAIR RAT
Begin by crimping the hair that you want to create a shape with using the hair rat
To crimp the hair, make sure that the crimpers are on a high heat to get the best outcome
Section the hair cleanly and hold the crimpers close to the roots of the hair and press down
Move the crimpers along your section of hair and repeat this on all other sections until the hair is fully crimped
Once this is done, select the correct size and shape rat that you want to use
REMEMBER: use one that is a close colour match to your model’s hair colour
Wrap the ends of hair around the rat and roll the hair around it until into place on the scalp
Using hair grips and bobby pins, pin securely into place on the head, piercing the rat with grips and bringing them away before turning back to pin them into the head
Repeat the pinning action until securely in place
Make sure that there are no gaps in between the hair and that the rat cannot be seen
