Temporary hair color products are a type of?

  1. Oxidation color

  2. Nonoxidation color

  3. Semi-permanent color

  4. Permanent color

The correct answer is: Nonoxidation color

Temporary hair color products are a type of nonoxidation color. Oxidation color products, often referred to as permanent hair dyes, penetrate the hair shaft and permanently change the color of the hair. Semi-permanent color products also penetrate the hair shaft but only deposit color without any chemical reaction, making the color gradually fade with washings. Permanent color products are similar to oxidation colors, but they typically use lower levels of chemicals and may not fully cover gray hair. Nonoxidation color products, on the other hand, only deposit color on the surface of the hair and do not cause any chemical changes to the hair. These types of products are often used for temporary or semi-permanent hair color changes and are typically less damaging to the hair compared to oxidation colors. Therefore, temporary hair color products are classified as nonoxidation colors.
