Works with ammonia to lighten natural melanin
Works with oxidative dies and precursors to create new hair color

Oxidative
Small underdeveloped and colorless dye precursors
Need oxidizer to work
Dye precursors grow 200 to 300 times in size penetrates into cortex and combines with dominant pigment
Needs developer or oxygen to work
Color penetrates into cortex

Large pre-develop dies. Deposits in the cuticle. No change and Melanin Stains without use of developer. What you have +what you add = what you get. Direct color Color sits on cuticle
