ChemistryYou will learn about:•Matter
•pH Scale
•Chemistry of Cosmetics
Why Chemistry?The professional cosmetologist needs to
understand the chemicals he/she works with in order to:- safely perform chemical services requested by clients,
- teach clients how to care for their hair following chemical services,
- and, sell products to their clients.
Matter• Anything that occupies
space; exist in 3 forms:– Solids – weight,
volume, shape– Liquids – weight,
volume, no shape– Gasses – weight,
indefinite volume and shape
Liquid
Gas
Organic Matter• Matter that is now living or was alive at
one time.– Ex. - Plants and animals
Plants and Mulch Humans Animals
Inorganic Matter• Matter that is NOT alive or has never been
alive; does not contain carbon.– Ex. – rocks, water, minerals
Rock – Granite Water Mineral - Quartz
Changes In Matter• Physical Change
– Change the characteristics without making a new substance.
• Ex. – Ice Melting
• Chemical Change– A change in a substance that
creates a new substance with chemical characteristics different from those of the original substance.
• Ex. – Rust – oxygen mixed with metal creates rust (or iron oxide)

Anatomy of a Hair Strand
Atoms• Smallest complete unit of an element.
• Atoms combine chemically to form
• of amino acids.Molecules
Amino Acids• Compounds of
C,O,H,N • 22 Common
amino acids• Join together in
chains to make proteins
Protein• Hair is made up of protein
called keratin• Hair is 97% keratin and 3%
trace minerals• Hair contains 19 of 22
common amino acids.
End Bonds(Peptide Bonds)
• Backbone of all protein molecules• Links the amino acid protein chains
together end to end.• Do not disturb the end bond, this could
destroy the protein structure.– If broken, protein chains separate into small
fragments, or revert to groups of amino acids that no longer have the characteristics of hair.
• RESULT – VERY DAMAGED HAIR!
Amino Acid Chains are held together by 3 side bonds:
• Hydrogen Bond:– Makes up about 35% of hairs strength.– Individually very weak and can easily be broken
by heat or water to create physical (temporary) changes in the hair.
• Salt Bond:– Also broken by water to create physical (temporary)
changes in the hair.• Disulfide Bond:
– Most important to a Cosmetologist• Much stronger than hydrogen or salt bonds.• Not broken by heat or water. Only a chemical change.
– Example – permanent wave

How Hydrogen and Salt Bonds are Broken by Water
Water molecules can easily break hydrogen and salt bonds when the
water molecules move in between the bonds. When the water molecules are not present the hydrogen and bonds
come back together.

Stages of Hair Formation
1.Begins with individual atoms.
2.Unite to become molecules of amino acids.
3.Amino acids unite to form peptide or end bonds.
4. Amino acids create polypeptide protein chains.
5. The individual protein chains bond to other chains by hydrogen bond, salt bonds and disulfide bonds.

Chemistry of Cosmetics
• Cosmetic Classifications–Based on how well a substance combines and its physical characteristics
Solutions• Mixture of 2 or
more kinds of molecules–Do not separate–Can be solid, liquid or gas
Suspensions• Mixture of 2 or
more kinds of molecules
• Separates• Needs to be
shaken–Example: Vinegar
and Oil
Emulsions• 2 or more non-mixable substances united
by a binder (gum).– Example: oil in water (perms)– Example: water in oil (cold cream)
Ointments• Mixture of organic
substance and a medicinal agent
• Semi-solid form• No water
–Example: Lipstick
Soaps
Mixtures of fat and oil converted to fatty acids by heat and then purified.
Powders• Equal mixtures of
inorganic and organic substances that do NOT dissolve in water.
• Sifted and mixed until free of coarse grit.
Shampoo• Cleans the scalp
and hair• Removes all
foreign debris without adversely affecting scalp and hair.
How Shampoo Works• A push pull action is caused by a
surface active agent causing the oil to “roll up” into droplets that are lifted and rinsed away.
Surfactant•Surface active agent•Has water loving and oil loving ends.
Water LovingOil Loving
Surfactant Molecule
The tail of the shampoo molecule is attracted to oil and dirt
Shampoo causes oil to roll up into small globules
During rinsing, the heads of the shampoo molecules attach to water
molecules and cause debris to roll off.
Thorough rinsing washes away debris & excess shampoo.
The Role of Water• Universal solvent• Neutral pH• Hard water = minerals
–Hard to lather• Soft water preferred (allows
lather)
Types of Shampoos
All Purpose
• Low Alkaline• Low surfactants• Mild, does not strip color
–Example: Redken Clear Moisture
Plain• Usually strong• High alkaline • Not for chemically treated hair• Follow with acid rinse
– Ex: Baby shampoo• Doesn’t burn eyes because it’s high
in alkaline and so are eyes.
Soapless Shampoo• Able to lather
without harsh alkaline ingredient
• Works in soft and hard water
Acid - Balanced• Made to have same
pH as the skin and hair
• Will not strip color
Medicated• Often must have
prescription• Designed to treat
scalp and hair problems
Clarifying• Removes
residue–Such as
product build-up.
Anti-Dandruff• Control dandruff• Massage scalp
vigorously and rinse thoroughly
Liquid Dry• Used when client
can’t receive normal shampoo
• Works with wigs• Evaporates from hair• Very drying
Powder Dry• For bedridden
clients• Orris root powder
absorbs oil and dirt as product is brushed through the hair.
• Don’t use prior to chemical service.
Conditioning• Contain animal,
vegetable or mineral additives that enter cortex or coat cuticle.
• Improve strength and porosity.
Color• Contain temporary
color molecules that stick to outer cuticle of hair.
For Thinning Hair• Gentle • Lighter molecular
weight• Provides healthy
environment for hair growth.
Rinses and Conditioners
Appearance Rinses and
Conditioners give hair the appearance of Shine and Luster
PorosityPorosity - Amount of moisture in the
hair.
Hair Porosity is the ability of the hair to retain & absorb moisture, determined by how raised or compact the cuticle layers are.
Porosity Test
ManageabilityHow easily a comb passes through the
hair.
ElasticityThe hairs ability to stretch and return to its
natural shape without breaking.
Types of Rinses
Vinegar and Lemon Rinse• Acid rinses• Remove
soap scum• Counteract
alkalinity.
Cream Rinse• Soften• Add luster• Only slightly
acidic
Medicated RinseControl dandruff and minor scalp
conditions.
Conditioners
Instant Conditioner• Coat the hair shaft• Restore moisture
and oils• Do NOT penetrate
into the cortex • Not for fine limp
hair
Normalizing• Contain
vegetable protein
• Acidic pH causes cuticle to close after chemical services.
Body-Building• Required for
fine, limp hair• Deposits
protein• Can use prior to
chemical services
Moisturizing• Humectants bind
and hold moisture in the hair.
• Avoid use for several days following perm (may go limp)
Customized• Formulated to
meet special needs
• Ex. Moisture and color
