ACTIVE MINERAL OIL The Active Mineral Oil molecules reduce frizz by coating the hair to keep it straight and smooth for longer.	FIBRE OPTIC IRIDESCENCE A multi-dimensional colour result that enhances not masks the hair to achieve vibrant colour with natural, believable tonality.
	AVOCADO OIL EXTRACTS The Avocado Oil Extract molecules form a layer around the hair to calm it and prevent frizz.	HEAT PROTECTION Silicon Polymers provide hair with a pearlescent shine, make it feel silky and healthy without weighing it down.
	CASMERATEX The Cahmeratex Formula contains a combination of Cashmere proteins and Pro Vitamin B5 that cross link the inner structure of the hair (keratin). This reinforces the hair structure, encouraging soft and flexible hair with fantastic shine.	INTELLIPROTEC Silicon Intelliprotec is an advanced crossover conditioning system that knowingly optimises hair condition through the colouring process and beyond, to help seal-in and maintain long-lasting colour radiance and integrity.
	CATIONIC CONDITIONING AGENTS Repair damaged parts of the hair fibre by forming a film that protects and smoothes the damaged parts of the surface.	INTENSITONE Pure tones based on the principles of Primary, Secondary and Tertiary colours. Created to enhance all SASSOON shades and for creative fashion work.
	CATIONIC SILICONE POLYMERS The Cationic Silicon Polymers combine the advantages of Silicones and Cationic conditioning agents. These increase manageability by forming a thin layer on the surface of the hair that improves combability.	MEDULLA This is a row of almost hollow cells in the middle of thick hair and is said to contribute to the white and dull shine of grey hair.
	CHASSIS The base formula of the colour and is a carrier for the dye precursors.	MELANIN The name for colour pigments found naturally in human hair. The names given to the different pigments are called: Eumelanin and Pheomelanin.
	CHROMATOLOGY The overall name given to the colour concept. Chromatology is split in 5 parts: 1| SASSOON Permanent Colour 2| Chromatools 3| Intelliprotec Advanced Crossover Conditioning 4| Chromatology Moments 5| Chromatology Service Success	MICRO KINETIC FORMULA The light hold polymer of the Micro Kinetic Formula forms a very flexible film around the hair providing polished shine, outstanding movement, and UV Protection. The film-forming formula reduces frizz and keeps the hair smooth.
	CHROMATOOLS Additional colour products and tools to support Chromatology.	MINERAL OIL FINISHING COMPLEX The Mineral Oil Finishing complex consisting of wax and oil components gives a hydrated look by coating the hair with a reflective film. The shine effect is inhibited by the clay component that enables the formula to achieve a unique hydrated matt look.
	COCONUT PALM KERNAL EXTRACT The formula with Coconut Palm Kernel Extracts contains small molecules that actively prepare the hair for optimal volumising techniques by starting the lift effect. It increases the strength of fine/week hair and leaves it more invigorated.	MODIFIED CELLULOSE POLYMERS Naturally derived cationic polymers that repair damaged hair areas, improve combability and support increase shine.
	COLOURPROTEC Coloured hair needs special care to ensure it retains its colour vibrancy and shine. The ColourProtec colour care regime with Intelliprotec ensures that hair condition is optimised beyond the colouring process, to help seal-in and maintain long-lasting colour radiance and integrity.	ORIGINAL LOGIC A SASSOON design principle. SASSOON colour is based on the theory and simple logic of the standard colour wheel.
	COLOUR INTEGRITY A SASSOON design principle. SASSOON shading is both honest and beautiful.	PERMANENT COLOUR Colour that physically alters the internal colour of the hair, permanent colour has the ability to remove and alter the natural hair colour and will grow out rather than be rinsed out of the hair.
	COMPLETE VERSATILITY A SASSOON design principle. SASSOON colour offers you the full capability of any permanent hair colour in a small, versatile range.	PHEOMELANIN Smaller Red/Yellow pigments.
	CONCENTRATED SILICON POLYMER Silicon Polymers provide hair with a pearlescent shine, make it feel silky and healthy without weighing it down.	SHAPE & BALANCE Is the SASSOON approach to cut and colour. Shape & Balance is a concept built around the inseparability of cut and carefully placed colour and training the eye to create harmony between the two.
	CORTEX The main bulk of the hair, containing the hair's natural colour, moisture and proteins, which give hair its strength and pliability.	TONE Tone is what we actually see shining through the hair, and refers to whether the hair is seen as warm or cool, i.e. Red, Copper, Ash.
	CREMABLOND High Lift Blonde shades, giving up to 5 shades lift.	UV FILTER The small molecules of the UV Filter absorb UV light which is damaging to hair.
	CREMAGEL The core range of SASSOON colours, consisting of 41 shades.	VITAMIN E The anti-oxidative Vitamin E fights the free radicals that are partly responsible for natural damage to hair.
	CROSSOVER CONDITIONING Intelliprotec is an advanced crossover conditioning system. This means this intelligently protective conditioning system can be found in the Colour Tint, in the Seal Colour completion treatment and in the ColourProtec care regime.	WEIGHT-FREE HYDRATORS Highly concentrated silicon polymers combined with a special cationic agent, that coat the hair, intensely repair the cuticle. The concentration of active ingredients on the surface makes the strengthening effect even stronger.
	CUTICLE The outer cell structure of the hair, arranged like fish scales. The function of the cuticle is to protect the inner structure of the hair. Healthy cuticle is shiny and pliable, whereas damaged cuticle makes hair look dull and feel rough.	WEIGHT-FREE SHINE COMPLEX The Weight-Free Shine Complex forms a film that enhances the use of hot irons, and protects the hair during the straightening process.
	DEPTH How light or dark a colour is, i.e. blonde, brown, black.	3-WAY CURL ACTIVATION This system based on 3 different active ingredients provide weightless bounce and conditioning, and is activated by the natural carbon dioxide. The aerated consistency of the cream-mousse enables it to be distributed evenly onto the hair to perfectly define curls and optimise shine without crispness.
	EUMELANIN Large Black/Brown pigments.
