Hair cuticles are the outermost layer of the hair strand and play a crucial role in hair health and appearance.
Understanding hair cuticle structure is key to healthy coloring
Understanding Hair Cuticle Health
When cuticles are damaged or raised, hair appears dull, frizzy, and prone to breakage. The most common cause of damaged cuticles is harsh, alkaline hair dyes that raise the cuticles and cause damage.
Healthy vs damaged hair cuticles - the difference proper care makes
Benefits of Acidic Hair Color
Acidic hair dyes help maintain proper pH balance and keep cuticles in their natural, flat position. This results in:
- More vibrant and long-lasting color
- Better penetration into the hair shaft
- Healthier hair overall
- Enhanced shine and smoothness
