Will ColorLock work and is it safe for hair that has been severely compromised, for example bleached?
Compromised hair is in danger only from the lack of moisture and the structural instability caused by gross chemical negligence. In these situations, the cortex has been damaged and has lost mass and the cuticle is probably severely compromised. For these clients, using a lower heat setting should protect hair from any further damage. Over time, after continued use of the ColorLock system, it should actually help promote improvements in structure and integrity, along with the usual benefits to hair color. At this time the heat settings could be gradually increased and would be safe for use. Does the ColorLock work on gray hair? Graying is essentially the absence of melanin. ColorLock allows for a thorough, deeper penetration of pigment into the keratin cortex, simulating where the original melanin used to occupy space. So, for anyone using hair color to ‘cover’ gray hair, the ColorLock will help lock in the color for a more vibrant, enhanced appearance while restoring natural vitality
