Abstract:

The invention relates to methods of coloring the hair with cluster-modified water and the ability to achieve enhanced color and conditioning for the hair that is color-treated. The cluster-modified water can be ionized water such as alkalinic or acidic water, or structured water such as I or S water. In addition, the cluster-modified water can be applied to the hair as a pre-saturating treatment and/or a post-saturating treatment relative to the hair color treatment process. Additional benefits of the present invention are the ability to minimize the use of harsh chemicals and dyes while still achieving an enriched color, and increased softness and smoothness to the color-treated hair. The present invention can also be used with mordanting salts. The present invention also includes a hair coloring kit including the cluster-modified water for post-saturating and/or pre-saturating the hair.
