What is special about Moringa oleifera? What effect does it have?
These proteins have a wonderfully nourishing, regenerating effect, most of all for the inner structure of hair. Some biophysical tests have shown that it makes a considerable difference in the colouration process when Moringa oleifera is used.
What does the term ‘cationic developer’ refer to?
Because a damaged hair surface is negatively charged (anionic), care substances in a conditioner are positively charged (cationic). The molecule can therefore bind to the hair. Most manufacturers attempt to integrate care ingredients directly into the colour cream. But this is often very difficult with cationic care substances, because the colour cream is alkaline. This is why we add the cationic care ingredients to the acidic developer and thus achieve far better results with IGORA Royal than the competition.
What was your function in the IGORA Royal Color Circle?
First of all, as a learner I had the privilege of listening to the very inspiring contributions of others. In so doing, I attempted to view the colorant not primarily according to its chemical aspects, but to understand what really makes up a colour. This was my wish—to address the needs, difficulties and limitations, with which we are confronted, and I discussed future trends with other specialists. Together we found a way to implement these trends in our hair colour.
