Study Notes

Tint or Dye Removers

Removal of artificial hair coloring is pursued for lighter shades, correcting coloring mistakes, or addressing overly dark hair due to excess porosity.
Dye removers, known as color or tint removers, fall into two main categories: oil-based dye removers and tint solvents.

Oil-Based Dye Removers

Work by lifting trapped pigments, stains, or buildup from the hair's cuticle layers.
Do not alter the structural integrity of the hair or change the natural or artificial pigment significantly.

Tint or Dye Solvents

Effectively lighten melanin and diffuse artificial pigments within the hair cortex.
Nonallergenic and do not require predisposition tests, as they lack aniline derivatives.
Strong and fast-acting; adherence to manufacturer instructions is essential.

Fillers

Fillers address excessive porosity and help create a foundation for color by saturating the cuticle and filling small gaps in the cortex.
Aid in achieving even color deposits and even out the hair's porosity for consistent lightening.

Types of Fillers

Conditioner Fillers: Available in both protein and non-protein formulations; offered in gel, cream, or liquid forms to provide moisture and structure.
Color Fillers: Serve a dual purpose of providing color and equalizing porosity; available in clear, neutral, and various colors.
Clear Fillers: Correct porosity issues without altering color; specifically formulated to not deposit any color base while improving hair condition.
