CCT - CLEAN COLOR TECHNOLOGY
Means a healthier hair coloring experience, free from ammonia, resorcenol, and PPD. What are these chemicals and how can they be harmful?
PPD
Paraphenylenediamine is a chemical substance that is widely and traditionally used as a permanent hair dye. People who are highly allergic to PPD have not been able to dye their hair with traditional hair color.
Known as a possible carcinogen
Allergies to PPD are common and reactions include dermatitis, reddening and swelling of the scalp and face.
In some severe allergy cases the eyelids may completely close and can result in contact urticaria and anaphylaxis shock.
RESORCINOL
Used as a coloring agent and is also commonly found in topical acne treatments.
Suspected to be an endocrine toxicity hazard
Suspected to be a human immune system toxicant
Suspected to be toxic to wildlife and the environment
AMMONIA
A chemical that is used to swell the hair cuticle so that color can be absorbed all the way through the hair.
Unpleasant odor/irritant to nose and sinuses
Many people become allergic due to exposure and suffer from itchy scalps and watery/red eyes while getting their hair colored.
