Sorry, but I stand by my statement. If a hairdresser is using reductors, then they should know the chemistry behind it. If you don't know what you're putting on someone's head, you shouldn't be using it, surely? That's not being a colour expert, that's having a dose of common sense.
My third point was about using am oxidant directly after. Highly dangerous if the reductor is not properly rinsed. Now am I being elitist for knowing that it reacts, smokes, gets hot, and melts the hair? Or am I just being a bitch for pointing it out? Would you prefer not to know that?
I'm sorry that you feel so threatened by other people knowing more than you. Sometimes training is lacking in the UK, and chemistry of hairdressing appears to have been a rather dumbed down area. With two colour masters, I would have thought reductors would have been thoroughly covered. They are fairly standard colour correction tools.
You've now expanded your answers and explained what can go wrong.
There's a big difference between say it dangerous to use oxidants after a reducer and it's dangerous to use oxidants after a reducer if it's not rinse properly .....
Your last comment is uneeded .... I never said I know more than you and you don't know if you know more than me. I disagreed with your statement ..... That is allow isn't it or is your word final?
