    To change the natural wave pattern of hair, the side bond of what layer of hair must be broken? - ProProfs

    To change the natural wave pattern of hair, the side bond of what layer of hair must be broken?

    • Cortex

    • Arc Base

    • Pattern Change

    • Disimination

    Correct Answer
    A. Cortex
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Cortex. The cortex is the middle layer of the hair shaft and is responsible for the hair's strength, elasticity, and color. To change the natural wave pattern of hair, the side bond of the cortex layer needs to be broken. This can be achieved through various chemical processes such as relaxing, perming, or straightening the hair. By breaking the side bond of the cortex, the hair's natural wave pattern can be altered and a new pattern can be achieved.

    In the restructuring process, coarse, resistant hair with a strong compact cuticle requires a chemical solution that is called what?

    • Highly Alkaline

    • High Chemical Content

    • Colored and Permed

    • Coarse

    Correct Answer
    A. Highly Alkaline
    Explanation
    Highly alkaline is the correct answer because in the restructuring process, coarse, resistant hair with a strong compact cuticle requires a chemical solution that can break down the strong bonds in the hair and reshape it. Highly alkaline solutions, such as sodium hydroxide or ammonium thioglycolate, have a high pH level and can effectively break these bonds, allowing for the restructuring of the hair.

    Correct Answer
    A. Palm
    Explanation
    When providing a scalp massage, it is recommended to use the length of the fingers, fingertip balls, and the cushions of the palm. The palm of the hand provides a larger surface area and more control compared to the fingertips or other parts of the hand. This allows for better pressure distribution and a more comfortable experience for the person receiving the massage.
