New Jersey Barber and Hairstyling Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

What type of hair requires more moisture?

Fine hair

Color-treated hair

Color-treated hair requires more moisture due to the chemical processes involved in changing the hair's color. These processes often strip the hair of its natural oils and moisture, leaving it dry and vulnerable to damage. When hair is colored, the cuticle (the outer layer of the hair) is lifted to allow the dye to penetrate, which can lead to increased porosity. Increased porosity means the hair can lose moisture more easily and requires additional hydration to maintain its health and appearance.

Moisture is essential for color-treated hair to mitigate the effects of chemical processing, prevent breakage and split ends, and maintain shine and vibrancy. Regular use of moisturizing products specifically designed for color-treated hair can help restore hydration and improve overall hair condition.
