Description:
Catalyst turns color theory into controlled, profitable outcomes. This class builds a working grasp of oxidative chemistry, pH, developers, underlying pigment, dye families, and bond interactions, then translates it into fast, accurate formulations for virgin, grey, corrective, and glossing work—across any line. From molecules to math—formulate with certainty.
Breakdown:
Oxidative vs non-oxidative dyes;
Ammonia vs AMP vs MEA realities
Developer & pH decisions: lift vs deposit math
Underlying pigment & neutralization across brands
Pre-Color Treatments: metals, chelation, and porosity
Grey strategy matrix
Bond builder pros/cons
Formulation labs: virgin, zone-to-zone, corrective
