    Study Notes

    Important Hair Characteristics for Coloring

    • Elasticity: Indicates the strength of the hair cortex and is vital for assessing hair health.

      • Normal elasticity allows hair to stretch up to 50% of its original length before returning.
      • Low elasticity means hair does not revert to its original length after stretching, indicating potential damage.

    • Texture: Refers to the diameter of individual hair strands and influences coloring results.

      • Fine hair has a small diameter with tightly grouped melanin granules, affecting color absorption.
      • Medium-textured hair has an average response timeframe to hair color products.
      • Coarse hair features a large diameter and loosely grouped melanin, leading to different coloring dynamics.

    • Density: Measures the number of hair strands per square inch on the scalp.

      • Thin hair requires smaller subsections for effective color application and even coverage.
      • Thick hair can use larger subsections due to greater hair abundance.

    • Porosity: Reflects the hair's capability to absorb moisture and color products.

      • High porosity hair absorbs color quickly but may fade rapidly, often feeling rough or dry.
      • Average porosity hair has slightly raised cuticles and processes color normally.
      • Low porosity hair features a tight cuticle, sometimes needing a higher volume developer, and may feel smooth or hard.

    • Natural Hair Color: Influences the final outcome of any hair coloring service and should be considered during selection.

    • Contributing Pigment: Refers to pigments that are not the primary color, playing a significant role in influencing the overall tonal effect of the final hair color.
