What has been said so far allows us to define two important premises:
GREATER CONCENTRATION DARKER COLORS
LOWER CONCENTRATION LIGHTER COLORS
WHITE HAIR
White hair is completely devoid of melanin pigment.
The total absence of color determines the inability, on the part of the white hair, to create any
kind of hindrance to the cosmetic colors applied to it. We can therefore state that white hair
behaves as a neutral color, and thus, when it undergoes a coloring treatment, it takes on the
hue that is applied to it, provided it includes, in the mixture, a part of the color of the natural
series.
