From the nature of the hair can be straight or wavy. The degree of curls of curl depends on the number of disulfide bonds between proteins in the structure of the hair rod - the greater the number of links, the more curly hair and vice versa. I understand what the hair consists of and how to determine your type.
What is part of the hair
Hair consists of keratin - protein that grows from the hair follicle. Keratines and other proteins are formed in the cells of the hair follicle. All proteins become part of the hair rod and contain sulfur atoms. When two sulfur atoms are connected and bind, they form a disulfide bond. If the two sulfur atoms in the same protein are at a distance and are connected, forming a disulfide bond, the protein bends. So create your curls.
