1. now that youve practiced thermal iron styling procedures, think about what you learned those tools before you began this section compared to what youve studied. write in which you reflect on what you excel at and struggle with when it comes to thermal flat, spring, wand, and crimping - techniques. how can you make your demonstration for your examination?

when youre finished, meet with a classmate and discuss your responses. look for ways to fill in each others gaps and help each other master the thermal iron techniques.

Explanation:

1. These are general - best - practice disinfection steps for thermal irons which apply to both electric and non - electric types. Cleaning with soap/detergent is the first step to remove surface dirt, followed by disinfection with EPA - registered products to kill bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Drying and debris removal are also important steps.
2. This is a reflective exercise to help students improve their thermal iron styling techniques by self - assessment and peer - to - peer discussion.
3. Pressing combs are indeed used on highly textured hair for finishing or reaching areas a flat iron can't, like the hairline.
