Hair is naturally porous (has holes in it) and because of how the hair is built (with proteins and such), when it gets chemically treated (dyes, bleach, perms, straightener treatments) it loses some of its proteins. This means your hair has more gaps and is now weaker.
When you dye your hair though, the colour seeps into each, individual hair that it is applied to. This does not actually fill the holes though. So that means after your hair has been coloured and dried and such, the colour can leak out quickly if your hair has become too weak/thin. There are two things a person does to combat this.
Protein filler/pre treatment - this is usually applied to the hair right before dyeing it, or it is mixed in with the hair dye (particularly if one is using professional dyes and developers). This helps keep the hair stronger so that the colour is accepted and kept.
Cuticle sealer - the process of treating your hair opens up the hair sort of (think of a pinecone, when the seeds have not popped out of it, a pinecone has flat sides, but then it opens up, and then it has sharp open areas), and this can cause your hair to have more breakage, and to cause your hair colour to seep out very quickly. Cuticle sealer is applied after the dye has been rinsed out of the hair.
So you should use cuticle sealer to protect the colour and to protect the hair.

The direction in which the hair cuticle lies and its importance when disentangling wet hair?
The hair cuticle lies downwards when u shampoo it opens up the cuticle and when u condition it closes the cuticle. It is not good to use petrissage with long hair as it will tangle the hair. when detangling the hair the hair cuticle helps the hair detangle easier as the hair will be soft. u must use a wide tooth comb to detangle the hair.
What is the direction of the hair cuticle and its importance when detangling the hair?
The cuticle of the hair shaft lies downwards towards the tip - from root to point to the shaft hair . The cuticle is lifted when shampooing occurs and smoothed with conditioner. It is important to remember to use the effleurage method of shampooing on longer hair as using a petrissage motion will result in excessive tangling – causing a ‘cuticle interlock’. Always use a wide toothed comb and start at the tips working your way up to the roots when detangling. Roo
How does the pH value of products affect the hair structure?
pH value can affect the hair structure by altering the cuticle's state. High pH levels can cause the cuticle to swell and lift, leading to frizz and damage. Low pH levels can cause the cuticle to contract, resulting in smoother, shinier hair. It's important to use products with a pH level that is close to the hair's natural pH to maintain healthy hair.
What is deep conditioner and how often should you use it?

State how the pH value of products used affects the cuticle?
Products with a high pH value can disrupt the cuticle layer of the hair, causing it to swell and become more porous. This can lead to damage, breakage, and loss of shine in the hair. It is important to use products with a pH balanced to the hair's natural acidity to maintain the health of the cuticle.
If you straighten your hair a lot is it bad for it?
Yes it can be bad for your hair because of the heat. It damages the cuticle if used excessively. The cuticle is the outside layer of the hair that lets water and chemicals get inside the hair. If it gets damaged the hair becomes dry and porous and this is not a good thing when you want to get a colour or perm done. The chemicals go into the hair quicker and can cause even more damage. You should use some form of heat protection when you straighten your hair to try and stop too much damage being done.
What type of sealer paint should I use for wood surfaces?

How does the water temperature affect the hair structure?
Water temperature can affect the hair structure by opening or closing the cuticle layer. Hot water opens the cuticle, making the hair more porous and prone to damage, while cold water closes the cuticle, sealing in moisture and smoothing the hair. It's generally recommended to use lukewarm water for washing hair to maintain its health and prevent damage.
Effect water temperature has on the structure of the hair?
Hot water can cause the hair cuticle to swell, leading to damage such as breakage and dryness. Cold water, on the other hand, can help to seal the cuticle and make the hair appear smoother and shinier. It's best to use lukewarm water when washing your hair to prevent damage and maintain healthy hair structure.
