Chapters 11 to 18 carry 20 of the knowledge component's 108 credits and rest on one idea: every temporary style is the same three steps, breaking the hair's weak hydrogen bonds with water or heat, shaping it, and letting the bonds re-form as it dries or cools. Styling tools and equipment and the temperature rule that protects the hair; blow-drying and heat styling; setting, rollers, pin curling and finger waving; thermal styling with tongs, irons and pressing; braiding, plaiting and twisting, with traction alopecia as the danger that defines the chapter; long hair and occasion styling; extensions, hairpieces and wigs; and styling products and finishing. 9 figures, and 24 worked examples built on the faults these services actually produce.
