It was touted as a wash and wear style that was easier to care for than the other popular chemical treatment of the day, the relaxer. A Jheri curl was a two part application that consisted of a softener often called a rearranging cream to loosen the hair and a solution to set the curls. The rearranging cream used pungent chemicals, causing the naturally tight curls to loosen and hang. The loose hair was then set and a chemical solution was then added to the hair to permanently curl it. Perming the hair was time and labor intensive and expensive to maintain. The harsh mix of chemicals required for the process caused the wearer s natural hair to become extremely brittle and dry. To maintain the look of the Jheri curl, users were required to apply a curl activator spray and heavy moisturizers daily and to sleep with a plastic cap on their heads to keep the hairstyle from drying out. These products were relatively expensive a typical bottle of activator was small, retailed anywhere from 3 to 6, and was quickly depleted.

The wrist curl is a weight training exercise for developing just the wrist flexion flexor muscles of the forearm . It is therefore an isolation exercise. Ideally, it should be done in combination with the reverse wrist curl also called wrist extension to ensure equal development of the wrist flexor and wrist extension kinesiology extensor muscles . Wrist curls can be performed with a dumbbell or with both hands holding a barbell . To perform a seated wrist curl, the lifter should be seated on a Bench weight training bench with his knee s bent and the forearm s resting on the thigh , or with forearms on a bench and hands hanging off the edge. The hand palm should be facing up and the hand should be free to move completely up and down. At the starting point, the wrist should be bent back so that the finger s are almost pointing down at the floor. In a steady motion, the lifter should raise the weight by using the forearm muscles to bring the hand up as far as possible. The forearm itself should remain resting on the thigh. Then the weight should be slowly lowered back down to the starting point. To perform a standing wrist curl, a barbell can be held in both hands with the palms facing backward. The bar should be behind the lifter. The same motion should be performed as in the seated wrist curl. The range of motion will be smaller but the standing wrist curl offers the benefit of providing the most stress on the target muscles at their peak contraction.
