Understanding These Tests for BBlunt High Shine Conditioning Hair Colour Wine Deep Burgundy (4.20)
PPD Content
The colourant was tested for para-phenylenediamine (PPD), with a measured result of 0.47% w/w.
PPD is an oxidative hair-dye ingredient. It may cause allergic reactions in susceptible individuals. The measurement is specific to the tested sample and does not confirm suitability for everyone.
Colourant pH
The tested colourant had a pH of 9.32. This indicates an alkaline formulation prior to mixing it with the developer.
Dye Content
The laboratory recorded dye content as Present. This is a qualitative result and does not quantify hair-colour intensity or retention.
Developer pH
The developer pH was measured at 4.52. This represents the separate developer component before mixing.
Hydrogen Peroxide Assay
The developer's hydrogen peroxide content was measured as 6.24% w/w. The assay establishes a chemical measurement, not a performance outcome such as grey coverage.
Viscosity
Colourant viscosity was 1,256,782 cps and developer viscosity was 6,756 cps under their respective laboratory conditions. Viscosity measures resistance to flow.
Foam Height
The developer recorded a foam height of 54 mm in a 2% solution. This laboratory result does not independently establish cosmetic efficacy.
