- 52. measures the concentration and strength of hydrogen peroxide
- 53. equalize porosity and deposit color in one application to provide a uniform contributing pigment on pre-lightened hair
- 54. used to recondition damaged, overly porous hair and equalize porosity so that the hair accepts the color evenly from strand to strand and scalp to ends
- 55. a primary and secondary color positioned directly opposite each other on the color wheel
Down
- 1. also known as vegetable haircolors; colors, such as henna, obtained from the leaves or bark of plants
- 3. contain small, uncolored dyes that combine with hydrogen peroxide to form larger, permanent dye molecules within the cortex
- 5. lightening technique that involves pulling clean, dry strands of hair through a perforated cap with a thin plastic or metal hook and then combing them to remove tangles
- 7. also known as oxidizing agents or catalysts; when mixed with an oxidation haircolor, supplies the necessary oxygen gas to develop color molecules and create a change in hair color
- 8. any technique that involves partial lightening or coloring
- 10. hair type that is difficult for moisture or chemicals to penetrate and thus requires a longer processing time
- 11. process of treating gray or very resistant hair to allow for better penetration of color
- 12. also known as quick lighteners; powdered lighteners that cannot be used directly on the scalp
- 14. semipermanent, demipermanent, and permanent haircolor products that are used primarily on pre-lightened hair to achieve pale and delicate colors
- 15. also known as lowlighting; technique of coloring strands of hair darker than the natural color
- 18. coloring technique that involves taking a narrow, ¹⁄8-inch (0.3 centimeter) section of hair by making a straight part at the scalp, positioning the hair over the foil, and applying lightener or color
