Study Notes
Hair Coloring Products
- Over-the-counter hair coloring products are commonly used at home; some are progressive dyes that need removal before other chemical services.
- Hair treated with coating dyes appears dry and brittle, with unnatural fading hues: silver dyes yield green/gray tones, lead dyes result in purple tones, and copper dyes lead to red tones.
Testing for Metallic Salts and Coating Dyes
- A mixture of 1 ounce of 20-volume (6 percent) peroxide and 20 drops of ammonia water is prepared for testing.
- Cut hair strands are immersed in the solution for 30 minutes, then assessed for reactions.
- Lead-treated hair lightens immediately; silver-treated hair shows no reaction, indicating penetration issues; copper-treated hair boils and damages easily; coating dye-treated hair displays either no color change or spotty lightening.
Removing Coatings from Hair
- Effective removal of metallic dyes may require multiple applications, guided by strand tests to confirm cleanliness before other chemical services.
- Supplies necessary include 70 percent alcohol, concentrated shampoo for oily hair, and various oils for color removal.
Reconditioning Treatment
- To rehabilitate damaged hair, conditioners with lanolin or protein are recommended.
- Application techniques follow manufacturer instructions; heat may be applied using caps, steamers, or lamps for enhanced treatment effectiveness.
Tinting Hair Back to Natural Color
- Tint back procedures must be individually tailored based on hair condition, existing color, desired outcome, and original shade.
- Assess natural hair color at the scalp level and choose filler shades to ensure uniformity, considering porosity levels and conducting strand tests for predictability.
Coloring Mustaches and Beards
- Aniline derivative tints are unsafe for mustaches due to potential irritation.
- Metallic or progressive dyes pose risks of allergic reactions when applied near facial hair or fresh haircuts.
- Hair color crayons come in various shades and are directly rubbed onto facial hair.
- Pomades, available in multiple shades, are used for mustaches and can be applied with small brushes; liquid versions may be preferred for beards.
Home Coating Preferences
- Many clients prefer to coat their own hair using metallic dyes or unnatural colors.
- Testing for optimal color should involve a test color application without rinsing followed by setting until dry, then rinsing with clean water.
Reconditioning Treatment
- Use hair conditioners containing lanolin or protein to restore damaged hair.
- Apply conditioning products according to the manufacturer's instructions for optimal results.
- Heat can enhance treatment effectiveness; use a heating cap, steamer, or heating lamp as needed.
- Follow instructor guidance for treatment frequency and duration for best outcomes.
Tint Back to Natural Color
- Tint back involves reverting dyed or lightened hair to its natural shade.
- Each case is unique; consider factors such as hair condition, current color, desired result, and original color.
- Determine natural color by observing the shade next to the scalp.
- Select an appropriate shade of filler to ensure uniform color from roots to ends, compensating for porosity differences.
- Conduct strand tests to predict final results and ensure color accuracy.
Coloring Mustaches and Beards
- Avoid using aniline derivative tints on mustaches to prevent irritation to sensitive areas like lips and nostrils.
- Be cautious with metallic or progressive dyes, as they can cause severe allergic reactions.
- Hair color crayons offer an easy way to apply color to facial hair, available in shades like blond, dark brown, and auburn.
- Pomades are specifically designed for mustache and beard coloring; available in various shades and applied with a brush.
- Liquid pomades may be preferred for beards and can also aid in styling mustaches.
- Liquid tints for eyebrows and eyelashes come in shades of brown and black for facial hair coloring.
Coating
- Many clients choose to coat their hair at home, using products like color removers or metallic dyes.
- Test colors can be used before application to find the best match.
- For testing, mix 20 drops of tint in a glass, apply to hair without rinsing, and allow to set until dry, followed by rinsing with clean water.
