The Science of Hair Color and Blonding
presented by Valerie George (USA-Canada Society)

Wednesday 23 February 11h NYC time

About the Webinar

The science of hair color and blonding are performed on many and understood by few. Learn the fundamentals of what chemical reactions are behind hair color and hair lightening from a hair color chemist. We'll review basic hair morphology, what occurs on the hair fiber during the coloring or lightening process, what ingredients make up hair color and lightener, and how to formulate hair care products to repair the hair fiber when the damage is done.
