Negatives of Ammonia Hair Colour

  • Ammonia is carcenogenic

  • In conventional Ammonia colour, consistent pH is impossible to maintain due to the uncontrollable gas, created by Ammonia and Peroxide. This will keep oxidizing the dyes darker if left for extra time

  • It is extremely toxic when concentrated vapours are inhaled and may be irritating to the eyes, hands, and mucous membranes. It may also cause hair breakage. In a strong solution, it may cause skin to burn and blister

  • In contact with the skin, it can irritate and burn
