Color Theory and Laws of Color

Hair is composed of the following three major components

• texture, density, porosity

• cuticle, cortex, melanin

• texture, cuticle, medulla

• cuticle, cortex, medulla

What are the degrees of porosity?

• cuticle, density, low

• low, average, high

• porous, texture, low

• low, porous, cortex

What are the three types of melanin located in the cortex?

• contributing pigment, melanin, Eumelanin

• Pheomelanin, undertone, pigment

• Eumelanin, Pheomelanin, mixed melanin

• Eumelanin, pigment, mixed melanin

Level is a unit of measurement used to identify the lightness or darkness of a color. Level is the:

• saturation, density, concentration of color

• density, mixed melanin, lightness of color

• texture, saturation, darkness of color

• concentration, texture, density of color

The level system is:

• a unit of measure of saturation.

• a system that colorists use to determine lightness or darkness of a haircolor.

• contributing pigment in the unit of measure of hair color.

• the amount of melanin in the hair color.

The varying degrees of warmth exposed during a permanent color or lightening process is known as:

• level system (or level)

• eumelanin (or melanin)

• melanin (or undertone)

• contributing pigment (or undertone)

Haircolor levels are arranged:

• on a scale of 0-20

• on a scale of 1-10

• on a scale of 1-15

• on a scale 1-5

The predominant tone of color is :

• melanin

• color level

• base color

• undertone

A system for understanding color relationships is the

• law of color

• color theory

• color molecule

• level system

Primary colors are:

• Yellow, Red, Green

• Red, Blue, Orange

• Blue, Green, Red

• Blue, Red, Yellow
