What are pin curls placed immediately behind or below a ridge to form a wave?

Hairstyling.

Where should a pin curl begin?

CREATE YOUR FIRST PIN CURL. Starting at your hairline, grab a one-inch section of hair and hold it upward. Then, place one or two fingers—the more fingers you use, the bigger your curls will be—at the end of that section. Roll the hair around your finger(s) until you reach your scalp.

What is the purpose of a pin curl?

A pin curl is nothing more than a simple way to secure and flatten a lock of hair to your head. The term originally referred to a method for coiling hair and securing with bobby pins in order to produce a wave pattern in the hair.
