skin structure and growth | Milady Cosmetology Chapter 3 Theory

brittnee alexus hair 61 views 2 days ago
Highlights (5)
This educational video reviews skin structure and growth from Chapter 3 of the Milady cosmetology textbook. It explains the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous layer, along with the epidermal layers and the roles of melanin, collagen, elastin, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. It also clarifies that cosmetologists may perform services such as waxing and facials but cannot diagnose conditions or prescribe medicine.
- The skin has three main layers: epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue.
- The epidermis is divided into five layers, with the stratum corneum helping form the skin barrier.
- Melanin influences skin, hair, and eye color and provides protection from the sun.
- Collagen supports the skin, while elastin provides flexibility and stretch.
- The six major skin functions include protection, sensation, heat regulation, excretion, secretion, and absorption.

The video compares inexpensive dry shampoos from Dollar Tree and Walmart based on ingredients, scent, oil absorption, residue, and appearance.

- Dove is the favorite aerosol dry shampoo
- Equate is presented as the best budget option
- Batiste Midnight Magic is intended for darker hair
- Frequent dry shampoo use can cause scalp buildup

how to use ION toner additives (toners you mix with bleach)

brittnee alexus hair 185 views 1 months ago
Highlights (7)
This video explains how to mix ION toner additives directly into a lightening formula instead of applying toner as a separate step. Vanilla and Silver Smoke are tested on medium brown hair, while Cool Porcelain and Lilac Crystal are tested on dark hair. Vanilla gives a natural neutral result and Lilac produces a pretty wearable color, but the additives may not eliminate the need for a follow-up toner and lightening can damage hair.
- Mix toner additives directly into lightener
- Vanilla is intended for levels 6–7
- Silver Smoke helps counter orange tones
- Cool Porcelain and Lilac Crystal are for levels 3–5
- Additives help control warmth but do not always replace toner
