Study Notes
Hair Coloring Basics
- Clients typically visit the salon every 3 to 12 weeks for hair coloring services.
- Haircolor refers to artificial hair coloring products and services used in professional settings.
Hair Structure and Strength
- The structure of the client's hair helps determine the appropriate haircolor to use.
- The cortex, or middle layer of hair, contributes 80% to the overall strength and elasticity.
Hair Pigment and Texture
- Melanin is the natural pigment found in the hair's cortex.
- Hair texture is based on the diameter of individual hair strands, with fine hair taking color faster due to tightly grouped melanin granules.
Porosity Types
- Porosity refers to the hair's ability to absorb moisture.
- Low porosity has a tightly packed cuticle, making it difficult for moisture to penetrate.
- Average porosity indicates a slightly raised cuticle, allowing for normal processing times.
- High porosity has a lifted cuticle and absorbs color quickly.
Color Theory
- Eumelanin contributes black and brown hair colors, while pheomelanin provides blond and red hues.
- Undertone refers to the warmth exposed during hair coloring processes, while levels gauge the lightness or darkness of color.
- The color wheel is vital for identifying a hair’s natural level and understanding color relationships via the law of color.
Color Characteristics
- Cool colors reflect blue undertones, while warm colors highlight red and yellow.
- Tones can be described as cool, warm, or neutral, with warm tones appearing lighter and cool tones looking deeper.
Hair Coloring Products
- Semipermanent and permanent colors are types of oxidative hair color; the latter can lift and deposit color.
- Non-oxidative temporary colors coat the hair and are removed through shampooing.
- Aniline derivatives are dye precursors that create permanent color when mixed with hydrogen peroxide.
Hair Coloring Procedures
- Hydrogen peroxide acts as a developer in hair coloring, with 20 volume being standard for permanent haircolor results.
- Lighteners disperse and decolorize natural pigments in the hair.
- Oxidation processes release oxygen within the hair for color change.
Application Techniques
- Single-process coloring lightens and deposits color in one step, such as virgin applications and color retouches.
- The double-process method pre-lightens and then tones hair.
- Techniques like highlighting and lowlighting involve coloring strands lighter or darker than the natural color.
Safety and Testing
- A consultation is crucial before any color service, especially for clients with compromised hair conditions, who must sign a release statement.
- Patch tests must be conducted 24-48 hours prior to using aniline derivative products to check for allergic reactions.
- Do not apply hair color to scalps with visible abrasions.
Advanced Techniques
- Pre-softening assists in coloring gray or resistant hair.
- Cream lighteners offer better control for scalp applications, while powdered lighteners provide quicker, stronger lightening through activated persulfate salts.
