What does the hydrogen peroxide do to the hair shaft when depositing color?

I am a little confused by your terminology...
When coloring your hair, the color is mixed with a developer. Developers come in different strengths, or "volumes". Typically, the higher the volume, the greater the color lifting power. 10 volume is for deposit only.
The developer penetrates the hair shaft by lifting the hair cuticle, and when mixed with either color or bleach, it changes the natural pigment of the hair by either removing melanin, or depositing color molecules in the hair cortex. The resulting tone is due to chemical changes within the hair.
I hope this answer helps.
Good luck,

What happens in each indivdual hair shaft when an aniline derivative tint is mixed with hydrogen peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide opens the hair follicle, allowing the aniline tint to 'catch' the hair shaft. When allowed to sit, the aniline is absorbed into the shaft, changing the color.
Will hydrogen peroxide open the hair shaft to increase hair dyeing effectiveness?
First, hydrogen peroxide you buy at the store is damaging for your hair. Second ,it is not the same as peroxide developer in hair dyes. Third, opening the hair shaft will make your color fade faster. Plus it could change the color of the dye you are putting on. The question was true. Yes hydrogen peroxide opens the cuticle of the hair to allow the dye to penetrate it. Peroxide is an alkaline substance with a base of about 9. It opens the cuticle so that the colour can be deposited in the hair. If you didn't use peroxide your colour wouldn't last long.
How does hydrogen peroxide work to bleach hair?
Bleach is used to lighten hair. wtf http://chemistry.about.com/cs/howthingswork/a/aa101203a.htm -------------------- Bleach (usually hydrogen peroxide) mixed with ammonia, will open the shaft of the hair. The bleach will oxidize the melanin (there are two types; eumelanin and pheomelanin) and the hair will become a yellowish color (this is because it is the natural color of keratin) -do some basic research on keratin and the different types of melanin to understand why some people get that reddish/orange colour ------------------- I just want to say, bleach and ammonia mixed together, will kill you. The fumes are horrible and you will not walk out of the bathroom. NEVER MIX THEM!

Is there red tones in ash hair colors?
No, not in the dye itself. But here is the crazy thing: your hair could still LOOK reddish in the sunlight! Ever wonder HOW in the world that could be? Let me explain. The actual hair shaft has pigment in it. If your hair is brown, for example, and you want to color it, the mix you put on your hair has a developer in it. The job of a developer is to "lift" the smooth shaft and make it porous, and get rid of some of the pigment. So under all that hair colorant goo on your head, chemically your hair goes from brown, to red, or even orange or gold depending on the level of developer/ timing etc. (think of any bleach job gone wrong and you can imagine it). Of course your hair doesn't STAY this raw color, because you ALSO put dye in the mix. The dye color gets deposited, and that is the ash color you ultimately see when it's dry. Fast forward some days after the color begins to fade and you may see red, or gold. What you are beginning to see can be the remains of the brown hair shaft after it has been exposed to the peroxide of the developer. Essentially, your hair got bleached so it would accept the new color. Your hair is STILL somewhat bleached after the color begins to fade. On some people, that looks red!
What is a cream developer?
A color developer, whether it's cream or clear, acts as an activator with color, which is mixed together. It opens the cuticle of the hair shaft so that the color can be deposited. It will lift your natural color up a shade or two depending on the volume of the developer used.
