The document discusses the effects of different hair coloring products:
- Temporary color coats the hair cuticle and lasts 1-2 washes. Semi-permanent color deposits into the cuticle and outer cortex, lasting 6-8 washes.
- Quasi-permanent color uses a mild oxidant to deposit color molecules into the cortex over 12 weeks.
- Permanent color mixes with hydrogen peroxide, allowing small molecules to penetrate the cuticle and cortex where they swell into large, trapped color molecules.
- Bleaching oxidizes natural pigments like melanin and pheomelanin in the cortex, changing them from colors like black and brown to colorless.

The effects of different colouring products week2
1. The effects of different colouring
products on the hair
? You will be looking at the effects of the following
colouring products on the hair:
? Temporary colour
? Semi-permanent colour
? Quasi-permanent colour
? Permanent colour
? Bleach.
2. The effects of temporary colour
? Large colour
molecules coat the
hair cuticle.
? There is no
penetration of the hair
cortex.
? The colour will last for
only 1 or 2 washes.
3. The effects of semi-permanent colour
? Small colour
molecules are
deposited into the hair
cuticle and the outer
edge of the hair
cortex.
? The colour will last for
between 6 to 8
washes.
? If the hair is unevenly
porous, the result may
be patchy.
4. The effects of quasi-permanent
colour
? The quasi-permanent colour is
mixed with a low-volume
oxidant (1:2 ratio).
? Different sized colour
molecules enter the cortex and
are oxidized by the oxidant.
? Because the oxidant is
mild, the colour molecules do
not become very large and are
gradually lost each time the
hair is shampooed.
? The colour is designed to fade
over a period of 12 weeks.
