An obvious difference between two colors along a hairstrand is called a:
line of demarcation
Aniline derivative tints have the ability to do all of the following EXCEPT:
Do not use aniline derivative tints to color eyelashes or eyebrows; if product enters the eyes it may cause blindness.
Chemical products such as hair colors, lighteners, perms and relaxers affect:
the porosity of the hair
Chemical services should not be performed on hair that has been colored with any of the following products EXCEPT:
weekly rinses
Coloring the hair back to its natural color is called a:
Tint back
Colors found opposite each other on the color wheel are called:
complementary colors
Contributing pigment is either the client’s naturally present melanin or a combination of the melanin and:
any previously applied artificial color.
Demi-permanent colors are NOT designed to:
lift existing natural hair color
Fillers are generally chosen to:
generally chosen to replace the missing primary color.
Hair breakage and discoloration can happen when coloring hair that has been previously colored with any of the following EXCEPT:
weekly rinses
High-lift tints are designed to achieve lighter color and are generally mixed with:
30 or 40 volume hydrogen peroxide.
If redness and swelling were found around the test area when performing a predisposition test, which of the following steps should NOT be taken?
Proceed with the service
If the hair ends become too dark immediately upon completion of the color service, try to remove some of the unwanted pigment by:
Re-shampooing the hair
In a permanent hair color procedure, the small colored molecules enter the hair with the aid of an alkaline substance, such as:
Ammonia
In order to become active, a developer needs to be mixed with ammonia or:
alkaline compounds.
Lighteners utilize ingredients such as ammonia and peroxide to penetrate the cortex and:
cause the melanin to break down.
Metallic dyes are known as progressive dyes because the:
as progressive dyes because the hair darkens with each application.
Once a color formula has been mixed, any leftover product should be:
discarded
The condition in which the cuticle is lifted or missing is referred to as:
extreme porosity

What technique is shown in the illustration?
Slicing
Which color tool is commonly used to apply color products with a thinner consistency?
applicator bottle
Which type of mixing bowls may cause hydrogen peroxide to weaken?
Metal mixing bowls may cause hydrogen peroxide to weaken.
Which type of porosity may take longer to absorb hair color?
resistant
Why are color molecules able to penetrate the cuticle layer of the hair when using semi-permanent products versus temporary colors?
molecules are smaller in size, the molecules can penetrate the cuticle layer of the hair.
With resistant porosity, cuticles are:
smooth
