Yes, ethanolamine is polar because of its polar functional groups (hydroxyl and amino groups) that create unequal sharing of electrons, resulting in a partial positive and partial negative charge within the molecule. This makes it soluble in water and other polar solvents.

How safe is ethanolamine in hair color?

Ethanolamine is the safest alkaline agent for use on human scalp. An alkaline agent is needed to lift the cuticle and achieve a permanent hair color effect. Ethanolamine is an organic occurring alkaline agent derived from coconut oil which is also very good for the hair. Ethanolamine is an extremely safe alkaline agent particularly because of its large molecular weight. The ethanolamine molecule has an atomic weight of 67 (ammonia has an atomic weight of 8) so the molecule is too large to be absorbed by follicles or pores yet offers an excellent alkaline agent which is highly effective at lifting the cuticle. Ethanolamine will not have the same pungent, putrid odor of ammonia because, unlike ammonia which is a gas and evaporated quickly (low atomic weight), ethanolamine is two heavy to evaporate into any sort of gas or fumes and therefore does not have an order. This also makes ethanolamine a much safer alternative to ammonia because it will not cause any respiratory, eye, or other irritations. The only reason any hair color would still use ammonia is to save money. Ethanolamine is a comparatively more expensive ingredient. Ammonia is cheap but causes horrible damage to the hair cuticle, sebaceous glands, hair follicles and also causes hair loss.


What is the other group that a phospholipids head made up of besides alcohol?

Beside alcohol, the head group of a phospholipid can be made up of a charged or polar group, such as choline, serine, or ethanolamine. These groups help determine the overall properties of the phospholipid and its interactions with other molecules in cell membranes.
