    GlossaryChemical Hair Treatments

    use chemical solutions to change hair's structure or color

    Chemical Hair Treatments refer to procedures that use chemical solutions to alter the structure, texture, or color of hair. Common examples include hair coloring, perming, relaxing, and straightening. These treatments can achieve desired aesthetic effects but may also weaken the hair shaft and cause damage if not performed correctly or if aftercare is neglected.
