second
Alpha Keratin
Alpha Keratin
Hair in its natural state
Beta Keratin
Beta Keratin
Hair when it has been styled into a different shape either by drying or use of heated styling equipment
Hygroscopic
Hygroscopic
The ability to absorb moisture from the atmosphere.
Salt Bonds
Salt Bonds
Temporary bonds which are softened by changes in the pH level of the hair and are reformed when the pH level returns to normal. Found in the cortex
Hydrogen Bonds
Hydrogen Bonds
Temporary bonds which are broken down by water or heat, and are reformed during either the drying and cooling process or use of heated styling equipment. Found in the cortex
Di-sulphide Bonds
Di-sulphide Bonds
Permanent bonds and can only be broken down during a chemical service, like during the perming process. Found in the cortex.
Polypeptide Chain
Polypeptide Chain
Chains found in the cortex of the hair. Made of amino acids and peptide bonds. Held together by temporary and permanent bonds
How does humidity effect the hair?
Humidity and the hair
Hair is hygroscopic, meaning it has the ability to absorb moisture from the atmosphere.
When we go out in a humid environment, your hair will absorb the moisture, softening the hydrogen bonds and reverting from beta keratin (its changed shape) back to its alpha keratin (natural state)
Describe the physical effects of styling on the hair. Remember to use key terms!!!!!!!!!!!!
Physical effects of styling
Shampooing the hair breaks the hydrogen and salt bonds. These are temporary bonds which are found within the cortex.
When you dry the hair, these bonds are reformed into a new, temporary shape. This is known as hair in its beta keratin state. When the hair is shampooed again it returns to its natural alpha keratin state.
Practical assessment
What do you need to cover to complete the practical element of this unit?
Fingerwaves
Slide text
What are the 2 different types of questioning techniques you can use during consultation?
Describe an open question
Describe a closed question
Open and closed questions
Open questions usually start with “what” “why” “who” “when” and they require a detailed response. You may also use words like “tell” “explain” “describe”.
Closed questions generally only require a short answer like YES or NO
Describe verbal and non verbal communication
During consultation, what questions do you need to ask the client?
Factors
What is a factor?
Factors
Factors are something you have to take into account before starting your service.
EVERY client will have numerous factors you will need to take into account when deciding how to style their hair
Task
In your groups, list as many factors as you can think of. Put these in column 1 on your paper

SWAP PAPERS
Now in column 2, write how this impacts your service (for example, side volume on a client with round face can make their face look rounder)

Hair length & cut, Occasion
Tools and equipment
You need to know about the use and maintenance of all tools and equipment, including whether or not they need a visual check before use.
Complete the handout on google classroom, or you can photocopy a paper one if you prefer.
