Book “Color Chemistry: How Hair Dyes Work”

"Chemia of Color: How the Hair hair color Work" ====Career=============Career=======================Chart========================================================================================================))===============))==============================)))))))===================================================================)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

This book helps to understand why the same dye on different hairs produces different results, why color goes into heat, prune or mud, why lightening doesn't always create a clean base, why direct pigments can get stuck in hair, and the retreading flushes don't work as a universal "power" for any color.

What is this book about?

The textbook explains hair coloring as a chemical and optical process.

– hair structure as a material of coloring;
- cuticula, cortex, CMC, lipids and keratin hair base;
- natural hair color, eumelanin, pheomelanin and background light;
– Lightning chemistry and melanine change;
- Oxidation dyes, precursors and muftes;
– Artificial color formation within the hair;
- Role of the developer, hydrogen peroxide and alkaline media;
– The effect of pH on coloring, diffusion and color endurance;
- direct pigments and their behavior on the porous hair;
- hybrid formulas with direct dies inside developers;
- the reasons why the same formula works differently;
- Remedial flushing, redox reactions, powder and chelators;
- water, metals and their effects on the result of the staining;
– Post-coloring care, color preservation and hair quality;
– security of coloring, allergic risks and professional restrictions.

For whom a textbook has been created

The book will be fine:

- barbers and colorists who want to understand their work more deeply;
- Masters with complex coloring, blonde, gray and color correction;
- Teachers who teach colors and want to give students a systemic explanation, not a myth;
- Technology and hair makeup producers;
- to masters who want to stop working "in habit" and start to understand why the formula works or doesn't work.

The book is different from the usual coloristics

Most coloring materials explain color through simplified circuits: "opened the cuticula", "pigmented", "screwed" and "neutralized the opposite color".

The book considers coloring more precisely as the interaction of hair structure, dye, developer, pH, time, background, porosity, direct pigments, and the previous hair history.

The book's mission is not to provide a set of ready recipes, but to form a stylist's chemical thinking, which helps to predict the result more accurately, to find the cause of the error faster, and to work with color consciously.

What will you understand after studying

After reading the book, you can understand better:

- why isn't hair a pier?
- Why the hair damage is faster to take color, but worse to hold it;
— Why the underlying lightening background is not just a pigment;
- Why the dye is not finished hair color in the tube;
- why pH affects not only the cuticle but also the reaction of the color formation;
- Why direct dies can behave differently than oxidative pigments;
- Why reductive color removal, powder and chelators do different tasks;
- why post-collarization is part of technology, not just "softness after procedure."

Important idea of the book

The color on the hair is not random; it is the result of chemistry, hair structure, optics, dye reaction and procedure.

When a stylist understands these processes, he stops just guessing the formula. He starts to see exactly where the error can occur: in the database, porosity, pH, developer, direct pigments, old color, metals, care or technology failure.

"Chemical chemistry" - It's a textbook for those who want to work with color professionally, deeply, and consciously.

The book will be suitable for professional training of hair professionals, dye chemistry, color, hair lightening, gray, straight pigments, pH, developers and color correction.
