    Glossary Hydroxides

    chemical compounds containing hydroxyl groups bonded to metals

    Hydroxides are chemical compounds that contain one or more hydroxyl groups (OH-) bonded to a metal or metalloid. In the context of hair care, hydroxides like sodium hydroxide are often used in hair relaxers to break down the protein structure of hair, making it easier to straighten. However, they can be harsh and potentially damaging to the hair and scalp if not used properly.
