Chemical Permanent Waving|

[@user-es7cj8eb7v]

can you pls help me with the chemical reaction between your hair and glycerylmonothioglycolaat during hot perm??

[@GlamAndBeyond]

glyceryl monothioglycolate (GMTG) acts as the reducing agent that breaks the disulfide bonds in the hair’s keratin protein. This process involves the thiol group of GMTG attacking and breaking the sulfur bonds in the protein structure, resulting in the loosening of the hair’s natural shape and allowing it to be reshaped into curls or waves.
