SINK OR SWIM TEST
Porosity is the measurement of intact cuticle on the hair shaft, which determines how quickly wave lotion is absorbed and affects the speed at which a wave processes. 

How do you test porosity? A Sink or Swim Test. 

This test determines whether or not the hair is within an acceptable porosity range for waving.

How to Perform a Sink or Swim Test:
Fill a glass with water and place a clean, dry strand of the client’s hair lightly on the surface of the water. Take a strand from the most damaged area.

• If the strand floats, you may proceed with the waving process.
• If the hair sinks, the cuticle is damaged and excessively porous and a waving service should not be given.

IT TEST
IT (Internal Tension) Test will determine the maximum size rod or tool to achieve the internal breakdown on a particular hair type.

How to Perform an IT Test:

• Take a single strand of clean, towel-dried hair from the crown area.
• Hold the strand between thumb and forefinger of each hand approximately 1.5 inches apart. Slowly move hands toward each other until the hair twists into a loop. The size of the loop indicates the rod size required.
