What is Permanent Haircolour?
There are two basic kinds of permanent dyes: oxidation hair dyes and progressive hair dyes. Both work through a series of chemical reactions that first open the cuticle (outer layer) and then allow the dyes to penetrate the natural pigment hair molecules. Most permanent hair dyes rely on a dual component system. The first part is a hydrogen dioxide component (usually about 6%) in water and the second an ammonia solution of dye components. Together these solutions work to dissolve and remove your natural pigments, and then add new colors and highlights. Once the dye is mixed, the ammonia solution is applied to your hair. It works by swelling the cuticle and stripping your natural pigments, and then allowing the dyes to penetrate the swollen cuticles and pigment cells. The main difference between the two permanent dyes is that oxidation dye relies on a solution of dye intermediates with p-phenylenediamine to achieve colors, where as progressive dye relies on products containing lead acetate as the active ingredient.
Permanent dyes tend to be the most popular dyes on the market today. These products will have the most long-lasting results, given that the dye fully penetrates the hair shaft. Although the color may fade and new roots will grow in, the permanent dye will remain in the hair until it is trimmed away. Permanent dyes use chemicals that strip the hair of its natural color and replace it with another color—a permanent dye.
The typical hair dyeing method is one in which the hair dye ingredients combine with oxygen to form a reaction that permanently binds the hair dye to the hair shaft.
The chemicals in the permanent dye react with the sulfur in your hair’s keratin and changes your hair color slowly from lighter tones to almost black shades over a period of time. This also means that the more often you apply progressive dyes, the darker your color will become. In oxidation dyes, darker shades are obtained by using higher concentrations of intermediates. Tones can also be adjusted by adding different chemicals to achieve yellow or red shades. Sometimes dyes are used along with the oxidation dye intermediates to add vibrancy to the tone that is not otherwise available.
Unless you are a trained hair-care professional, you will want to leave these dye-jobs to your stylist to insure that you not only obtain your desired look, but also maintain the health of your hair. Although permanent hair dyes are the most long-lasting, they are also the most threatening to the health of your hair. Over processing from permanent dye can lead to hair breakage due to excessive dryness and brittleness. It is therefore of the utmost importance that permanent color be applied by a professional and followed-up with ongoing hair conditioning and other nurturing.
