thioglycolate (atg) they have a low pH. Weak don't provide strong curl

chemicals to penetrate. What term describes this condition?
High porosity - Answers When the cuticle is lifted and the hair is overly porous and takes color quickly
the hair would be said to have
Average porosity - Answers The cuticle is slightly raised. The hair is normal and processes in an average
amount of time. (Normal)
Curl rearranger - Answers reduces peptide bonds so hair can relax and become straight; thio-based
product (Thio based) (atg)
Curl booster - Answers assists hair to assume new shape of rod when wrapping hair in perm rods; milder
form of thio
curl activator - Answers Helps new curl configurations retain their shape and provides moisture; applied
frequently after every shampoo
