To avoid affecting untreated hair when using a toner on highlighted hair, choose from the following options

1. A nonoxidative toner, which contains no ammonia, requires no developer (thus producing no lift of the natural hair color) and is gentle on the scalp and hair. 2. Semipermanent color may be used to deposit color without lift. Select a color that is delicate enough to avoid overpowering the prelightened hair. Always check the manufacturer's color chart to make sure that the combination of your chosen toner and the contributing pigment will produce the desired color results. 3. A demipermanent haircolor may also be used to deposit color. It will not cause additional lightening and lasts longer than temporary or traditional semipermanent colors.

Name the five factors that affect processing time for lighteners.

The darker the natural hair color, the more melanin it has. The more melanin it has, the longer it takes to lighten the color. The amount of time needed to lighten the natural color is also influenced by the hair's porosity. Porous hair of the same color level will lighten faster than hair that is nonporous, because the lightening agent can enter the cortex more rapidly. Tone influences the length of time necessary to lighten the natural hair color. The greater the percentage of red reflected in the natural color, the more difficult it is to achieve the delicate shades of a pale blond. Ash blonds are especially difficult to achieve because the melanin must be diffused sufficiently to alter both the level and tone of the hair. The strength of the lightening product affects the speed and amount of lightening. Stronger lighteners produce pale shades in the fastest time. Heat leads to faster lightening. But the stages of lightening must be carefully observed to avoid excessive lift. Excess lift could diffuse so much natural pigment that the toner may not produce the desired color. When this occurs, the toner may absorb too much color or grab, giving the hair an unwanted ashy, cool tone.

In _____________________, selected strands are picked up from a narrow section of hair with a zigzag motion of the comb, and lightener or color is applied only to these strands.

Weaving

Why should most powdered lighteners not be used for retouch services?

They cannot be directly on the scalp

Why are on-the-scalp lighteners popular?

They're thickener and give more control during application

Why is it not advisable to pre-lighten past the pale-yellow stage?

This will create overly porous hair that will not have enough natural pigment left to create the desired effect
