Pin Curling
Comb all hair back smoothly away from the forehead as in a straight back.
It is necessary to use very small sections in pin curling. At the center of the face line,
take the first square which is a 1/4 inch block, place the index finger of the left hand
under this strand of hair, grasp it with the right and and bring it around the tip
of the left index finger very tightly. Continue placing this strand around the tip of the finger,
lap upon lap, until the very end is reached. Then wind this end under the curl,
so that the curl cannot become loose.
Form an X with two hair pins through the curl, with the points of the pins
toward the face so that they will not interfere with the next curl.
There are four of these sections of pin curls from the center of the face line back
towards the crown.
