100

The study of hair

What is trichology

100

Protien building blocks of hair that linked together to form tiny protein fibers

What are amino acids

100

A chemical texture service that restructures overly curly hair into loose curls or waves.

What is soft curl reformation 

200

The ability of the hair to absorb any liquid

What is porosity 

200

Determines the required processing time and it shows that the desired curl has been achieved for a permanent wave service

What is preliminary test curl 

200

The tough outer protective covering this layer is generally made up at 7 to 12 layers of overlapping scale like cells

What is the cuticle

200

Also known as cross bonds, connect polypeptide chains side-by-side responsible for strength and elasticity

What are side bonds

200

Chemically rearranging straight hair into a curly or wavy form 

what is permanent waving

300

The capability of the hair strand to stretch and return to its previous form without breaking. 

What is elasticity?

300

Neck strip, towel, cape, towel

What is double draping 

300

The soft elastic thick inner layer made up of elongated cells

What is the cortex

300

Physical side bonds by easily broken by water or heat reforms when hair cools and or dries

what are hydrogen bonds

300

To chemically change alter naturally curly or wavy hair into a straighter form 

what is chemically relaxing 

400

When a substance is able to be mixed with another substance.

What is miscible 

400

The process of obtaining the information you need from your gas in order to suggest service products and solutions

What is a consultation

400

The deepest layer consisting of round cells sometimes it is intermittent or totally absent

What is the medulla

400

Weak physical side bonds easily broken by change in pH, reform when pH balance is restored

What are salt bonds

400

Processed by the application of heat; hood dryer, heat process

What is the development of a single strand of hair

500

Strong chemical side bonds that can only be broken by chemical solutions

What are disulfide bonds

500

processed by chemical reaction that releases heat; self heat
