Chemical Texture Services

QuestionAnswer
The cortex layer of the hair structure is responsible for the hair’s length and texture. False
The term pH is an abbreviation used for potential hydrogen. True
Salt bonds can be broken by water, whereas disulfide bonds are broken by changes in pH. False
In permanent waving, the size of the rod determines the size of the curl. True
In permanent waving, the size of the rod determines the size of the curl. False
On-base placement minimizes stress and tension on the hair. False
Alkaline waves are also known as cold waves. True
Ammonia-free waves use an ingredient other than ATG, such as cysteamine or mercaptamine. False
The strength of any permanent wave is based on the concentration of its reducing agent. True
The most common neutralizer is hydrogen peroxide. True
The curvature permanent wrap uses zigzag partings to divide base areas. False
Japanese thermal straightening combines use of a thio relaxer with flat ironing. True
Hair that has been treated with a hydroxide relaxer is unfit for permanent waving and will not hold a curl. True
Keratin straightening treatments work by breaking side bonds. False
The process of chemically altering the natural wave pattern of hair is: chemical texture services
The range of numbers used in the pH scale is: 0-14
Chemical hair texturizers temporarily raise the pH of the hair in order to: soften and swell the shaft
In the restructuring process, coarse, resistant hair with a strong compact cuticle requires a chemical solution that is: highly alkaline
Chemical side bonds formed when two sulfur-type chains are joined together are: disulfide bonds
Hydrogen bonds are easily broken by water or heat and are re-formed when the hair is: dried
In permanent waving, the shape and type of curl are determined by the shape and type of rod and the: wrapping method
Rods that are equal in diameter along their entire length or curling area are: straight rods
The wrapping technique that provides the most control over hair ends is the: double flat wrap
All perm wraps begin by sectioning the hair into: Panels
In permanent waving, panels of hair are divided into smaller subsections called: base sections
Caution should be used with on-base rod placement to avoid additional: stress and tension on hair
The angle at which a permanent wave rod is positioned on the head is referred to as: base direction
The two methods of wrapping the hair around a perm rod are: croquignole and spiral
In the croquignole method of wrapping, the hair is wound from: ends to scalp
Once in the cortex, the waving solution breaks the disulfide bonds through a chemical reaction called: reduction
In permanent waving, the reduction reaction is due to the addition of: hydrogen
The most common reducing agents used are: thioglycolic acids
The active ingredient or reducing agent in alkaline permanent waves is: ammonium thioglycolate
Most alkaline permanent waves have a pH between: 9.0 and 9.6
The main active ingredient in true acid and acid-balanced waving lotions is: glyceryl monothioglycolate
All acid waves have three components consisting of the permanent waving lotion, neutralizer, and: activator
Most acid waves used in salons have a pH value between: 7.8 and 8.2
Exothermic waves create a chemical reaction that heats the waving solution and speeds up: processing
Waves that are activated from an outside heat source are considered: endothermic
Hair that has too many disulfide bonds broken and will not hold a firm curl is considered: overprocessed
The process that stops the action of permanent wave solution and rebuilds the hair into its new form is: thio neutralization
Base sections are offset from each other row by row, to prevent noticeable splits, in which wrapping pattern? bricklay permanent wrap
The double-rod wrap technique is also called the: piggyback wrap
The process of rearranging the basic structure of curly hair into a straighter or smoother form is: chemical hair relaxing
The active ingredient in all hydroxide relaxers is the: hydrogen ion
Hydroxide relaxers remove a sulfur atom from a disulfide bond, converting it into a(n): lanthionine bond
Relaxers that contain only one component and are used without mixing are: metal hydroxide relaxers
Sodium hydroxide relaxers are commonly called: lye relaxers
Relaxers are often marketed and sold as no mix–no lye relaxers are: potassium hydroxide relaxers
Relaxers that contain two components and must be mixed immediately prior to use are: guanidine hydroxide relaxers
Hydroxide relaxers that do not require the application of a protective base are: no-base relaxers
The difference in the strength of most chemical hair relaxers is determined by the concentration of: hydroxide
During a relaxer strand test, hair that is pressed to the scalp and continues to curl is: insufficiently relaxed
The application for chemical relaxers should be started in the most resistant area, usually the: back of head
Conditioner with an acidic pH that restores the hair’s natural pH after a hydroxide relaxer is: normalizing lotion
A combination of a thio relaxer and a thio permanent wrapped on large rods is a: soft curl permanent
Chemical services should not be performed if the scalp analysis shows any signs of: abrasions
Hair that is treated with hydroxide relaxers must not be treated with: thio relaxers
Most common type of perm rod Concave rod
Also known as the circle rod Loop rod
Tough exterior layer of the hair Cuticle
Compound made up of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen nitrogen, and sulfur Amino acid
Long, coiled polypeptide chains Keratin proteins
Permanent waves that have a 7.0 or neutral pH Acid-balanced waves
Hair is wrapped at an angle other than perpendicular to the length of the rod Spiral perm wrap
Also known as a straight set wrap Basic permanent wrap
