🗑
Are the protein building blocks of hair and link together to form tiny fibers   Amino acids(Q)

🗑
When a substance is able to be mixed with another substance   Miscible(Q)  
🗑
When a substance is able to not mix with another substance   Immiscible(Q)  
🗑
A measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution   Potential Hydrogen (pH)(Q)  
🗑
A scale ranging from 0 to 14 that measures if a product is an acid (0 to 6.9), an alkaline (7.1 to 14), or neutral (7)   pH Scale (Q)  
🗑
To chemically alter naturally curly or wavy hair into a straighter form   Chemical Relaxing  
🗑
The process of removing one sulfur atom and replacing it with a disulfide bond   Lanthionization  
🗑
Solutions with an acidic pH that restore the hair's natural pH after a hydroxide relaxer   Normalizing Lotions(Q)  
🗑
Use to help remove any remaining chemicals left in the hair after a hydroxide relaxer   Neutralizing Shampoo  
🗑
Also known as a Protective Base Cream, is an oily cream applied on the scalp / skin to protect from the chemicals in the relaxer   Base Cream  
🗑
Also known as Rebonding, is chemically restoring disulfide Bonds to harden into a new shape   Neutralizing  
🗑
Also called an acid/alkali neutralization reaction; it neutralizes any remaining alkaline residue left by the hydroxide relaxer and helps to restore the pH of the hair and scalp   Hydroxide Neutralization  
🗑
Measurement of how thick or thin a liquid is, and how that affects the liquids flow   Viscosity  
🗑
Relaxers with a high alkaline (pH) content; available in varying formulations   Hydroxide Relaxer  
🗑
A strong alkaline ingredient used in chemical relaxers   Sodium Hydroxide (Lye)  
🗑
A very strong alkaline ingredient used in chemical relaxers typically marked as no-mix, no-lye   Potassium Hydroxide / Lithium Hydroxide  
🗑
Relaxer requiring the mixing of two products; advertised as "no-lye " for sensitive skin   Guanidine Hydroxide  
🗑
Requires a protective base cream to be applied to the hairline and scalp; when a relaxer is labeled " base relaxer", it means the relaxer is too strong to be applied without the application of a base cream   Base Relaxer  
🗑
Also known as No-Lye Relaxers, do not require a base cream to be applied to the skin or scalp   No-Base Relaxer  
🗑
Known as thio relaxers by industry standards, are chemical compounds with the additive ingredient ammonia; considered to be a no-lye relaxer, suitable for soft curl reformation   Thioglycolate Relaxer  
🗑
A combination of ammonia and thioglycolic acid that creates a reducing agent used in permanent waves and relaxers   Ammonium Thioglycolate (ATG)  
🗑
A mild, alternative relaxer containing a low pH compatible with thio relaxers   Ammonium Bisulfite Relaxer  
🗑
An organic compound that is a colorless, flammable and pungent gas; present in the air and many food and beauty products   Formaldehyde  
🗑
Results from the oxidation of primary alcohols; there are several other chemicals in the class of highly reactive chemical compounds (composed of carbon, hydrogenand oxygen)   Aldehyde  
🗑
Chemically rearranging straight hair into a curly or wavy form   Permanent Waving  
🗑
A cream barrier applied around the hairline and ears to protect the skin from permanent wave lotions or haircolor   Protective Cream  
🗑
Chemical solution that stops the waving process of a permanent wave; rebuilds the bonds into their new form   Neutralizer  
🗑
The process of stopping a permanent wave and reform   Thio Neutralization  
🗑
Determines the required processing time and ensures that the desired curl has been achieved for a permanent wave service   Test Curl  
🗑
Products are manufactured 'without' the use of formaldehyde but could omit a formaldehyde gas upon use   Formaldehyde Free  
🗑
Also known as Cold Waves, processed without heat; the main ingredient is thioglycolic acid   Alkaline Waves  
🗑
The main active ingredient in true acid waves   Glycerl Monothioglycolate(GMTG)  
🗑

🗑
Processed by chemical reaction that releases heat; self heating   Exothermic Wave  
🗑
Use an ingredient other than ammonia to reduce the odor associated with ammonia perms   Ammonia-Free Waves  
🗑
A perm rod that has a small diameter in the center and a larger diameter increase throughout the length   Concave Rod  
🗑
Also known as Flexible Rods, foam-covered perm rods that are easily bent into different shapes and used for permanent waving; also known as flexible rods   Bender Rod
