Hair damage, dandruff, pH repair

Chemistry by Chrome: learn about pH Balance, how to make basic shampoo and hairspray, how to repair damaged hair, how to treat hair extensions (hair extension care formula), the difference between the hair oil and silicon based shines. High pH of haircolors and relaxes, hair bleach, hairsprays and shampoos will damage the hair; some of the chemicals used are pH 10-14. Hairdressers need acidic and pH balanced styling aids to balance the hair to its normal stage. Damage control product have UV protectors, thermal protectors, alcohol free ingredients, balanced shampoos, vitamins, proteins and reconstructors for the hair.
Some formulas for basic hair aids:
Basic shampoo: Water+sulfate+salt (sulfater free shampoos have other ingredients)
Hairsprays: water+alcohol+glue (can hairsprays also have gas, sometimes propane that is harmful to hairdressers' and clients' health)
Beware of propane (BBQ gas) hairsprays in the can,  it contains half hairspray and half gas. Learn about the damage done by hairspray in the can; it is a health hazard; hairspray in a spray bottle is a better choice for cosmetologists. Learn about  flake free styling gels.
Leave-in conditioners help to detangle the hair before wetting the hair. Most hair oils attract dust to the hair; silicones help dust slip off the hair. Oil+silicone is a better combination than hair oil alone.
Hair frizz is controlled by balancing by combining use of negatively and positively charged styling aids.
Learn why is alcohol used in hair products. How is shampoo made and why do shampoo manufactures use salt in the shampoo: also about 99c store shampoos.
When reading the ingredients of the shampoo, always note: the first ingredient is the most ingredient in the product.
Dandruff sometimes is a result of excessive salt in the shampoo or poorly rinsing the shampoo off of the hair. To help eliminate dandruff; first start using a dandruff shampoo, than switch the shampoo you have been using that was the cause of the dandruff to a better shampoo (too much salt in the shampoo: salt is mixed in the shampoo to make it thick).
Oily skin can result in hair-loss (alopecia) due to the clogging of the hair pore; a proper shampoo for oily skin will help take care of hair loss problem associated with oily scalp (some shampoos have scrub particles to gently remove the oils (sebum) from the hair pores).
This video is for cosmetologists, barbers,  beauty school students, trichologists, salon hairdressers to understand the use of chemicals in styling aids. Guest speaker: Milca Silva, video by BeautyHealthTravel Channel.
