Unveling the Truth: The Potent Impact of Ammonia in Hair Colour
What is Ammonia?
Discover the Truth About Ammonia in Hair Colour: Expert Hairdresser Mark L in Hawthorn, Melbourne Embraces Safe and Stunning Results.
Ammonia, a colorless gas with a distinct odor, has been a widely used ingredient in permanent and semi-permanent hair colors for decades. With our increasing awareness of the ingredients we consume, concerns have arisen about the potential harm ammonia may pose to both hair health and overall well-being. However, it’s important to note that ammonia has been continually revisited and refined over the past 50 years as technologies advance. And the consensus among experts remains consistent: Ammonia is the superior ingredient for achieving the desired final color result.
We understand the importance of using ammonia to swell the cuticle layer of your hair. This, when combined with Hydrogen Peroxide, creates the desired lift for lighter and more vibrant color outcomes. Rest assured, the presence of ammonia in your hair color shouldn’t be a cause for concern. As the ammonia content in the color mixture evaporates rapidly and in minimal amounts. That’s why your skilled colorist may often remix the color as they apply it, ensuring the best possible results for your hair. Mark L Hair is comitted to prioritize both safety and stunning outcomes. Experience the transformative power of ammonia-based hair color with us.
Ammonia Vs MEA
Ammonia is often swapped out and replaced by MEA, a liquid alkaliser that has the same job. MEA’s biggest benefit is that it has no odour, making it highly favourable. While an ammonia free colourant may smell nicer, its weakened power as a liquid means it needs more MEA content than what is needed from ammonia to achieve the same effect.
Essentially speaking, you shouldn’t opt for ‘Ammonia Free’ colours if your anxious about ‘Harsh Chemicals’
Koleston Perfect by Wella embraces Ammonia’s technology and has optimised it with its own colour technology called ‘Me+’. This technology not only ensures true and accurate colour results but also ensures that your hair is not damaged during the colour process. It does this by purifying the hair of Metals and Minerals before the colour begins oxidising.
So you have peace of mind knowing that your colour is the truest, most natural result while also using the best technology available to protect your hair and scalp!
