I will start the turn under your toes which I will leave open for us to be able to control their colour and temperature. Obväz z začnem pod prstami, ktoré nechám m voľne, aby ste mohli kontrolovať ich farbu a teplotu. From toes to heel I will apply a spiral turn. Od prstov po pätu p urobím hoblinový obvin.
