β¨ Why Do Cosmetology Students Need to Learn About Matter & pH? π§ͺπββοΈ No better way to do that than using food!
Cosmetology is so much more than creativity. It is the science in action! π¬β¨Understanding matter and pH gives future beauty professionals the knowledge they need to make informed decisions when working with hair, skin, and nails.
π§ͺ Matter helps students understand the substances they work with every day such as shampoos and conditioners to haircolor, lighteners, relaxers, and skincare products.
βοΈ pH helps explain how products interact with the hair and skin. Knowing the difference between acidic and alkaline products can help cosmetologists understand how products affect the hairβs structure, porosity, and overall condition.
π‘ When students understand the why behind what theyβre doing, they become more confident professionals that do not just following directions, but understand the science behind their services.
Great cosmetologists combine creativity + chemistry + knowledge! ππ§ͺβοΈ
