   relaxer is a type of lotion or cream which makes hair less curly, and easier to straighten by chemically “relaxing” the natural curls. The active agent is usually a strong alkali, although some formulations are based on ammonium thioglycolate instead.

   permanent waxing is is a gel that is applied to the area that is gonna have hair removal Your waxing is performed
   The inhibitor gel is applied to the newely waxed area.
   The activator gel is applied into the skin for approx. 1 minute.
   Treatment completed! its suppose to be less painful the laser removal

   Natural glossing is pretty much like using a semi permanent… there are a range of shades, but it is not somthng that would give drammatic changes.its sorta like a coating that goes into the cuticles of the hair shaft…it prevents dryness and it looks great..beautiful sheen

   prelightner is like bleaching the hair stripping the hair of its color its usually done when you want to go blonde

   toner is a hair product you put in your hair to tone down the shade like for instance if its a bright yellow or brassy color it will make it look more natural

   all over color is when they dye your whole head one shade of color.

   a tint regrowth is when a tint (permanent dye for covering greys) is put on the regrowth or roots of the hair..

   basically a hair colour is matched up to the colour the hair has previously been dyed and applied to the roots where the hair has grown out to cover the greys and natural hair colour and match the roots up to the last colour thats been done

   change of colour is when they dye it a different shade then whats already in hair.

   creativee shading is Creative colour, as it is known in the salon, tends to be semi-permanent or permanent As its name suggests, creative colour is where a hairstylist gets creative and even more artistic – your hair is a canvas on which colour application and technique converge. Some creative hair colour techniques can produce quite radical results,

   t section is they basically take an inch either side of your parting all the way down and go downwards on the rest very simple but effective…likethey just colour the top section and down the middle of the back of your head. imagine you have the letter T on your head.
   it keeps the hair in better condition as they only colour the bits that show

   half head is when they do a partial highlight (or half head highlight) what they do is pretty much highlight from the temples up. it gives you the appearances of full highlightswhen your hair is down without paying for a whole highlight

   hilights are a lighter shade of strips of hair they put in your hair to make your hair stand out more most people do either blonde or red hilights

   low lights are when they do just like hilights but instead of using a lighter shade of strands they do it darker
