The rates of weight loss of the postdyed and postbleached samples were also much greater than those of the others. These results correlate well with the loss of surface material noted in SEM analysis. The weight loss of the dyed samples was somewhat less than expected from the SEM results. The deposition of dye molecules into the fiber may compensate for some of the lost cuticular material. These results suggest that as chlo- rination proceeded, an increasing amount of cuticular material became detached from the substructure and remained held to the fiber by the cell membrane. If the bleach and the dye treatments degraded the cuticle cell membrane, the detached cuticular material could be lost quite readily. Values of the reduction in the force and the work required to extend wet fibers 20% are given in Table IV. The cosmetic treatments alone caused significant reductions. There was no significant difference between the effects of the bleach and the dye treatments. The perm treatment, however, caused a significantly greater reduction than the other two. Beyak et al. (5) found similar results (30% reduction in force for 15% elongation) in a permanent wave treatment of hair involving a ten-minute reducing step and a five-minute neutralizing step.

The effect of com- bining the cosmetic treatments with chlorination appeared to be additive. The effect of treatment sequence for each cosmetic treatment, however, was not significant, sug- gesting that both treatment sequences affected the cortex of the fiber to a similar ex- tent. Therefore, the cuticle did not contribute significantly to the tensile properties of wet hair fibers at low extensions (20%). Values of the ratio of knot breaking-to-fiber tenacity are given in Table V. Only perming caused a significant increase in K/T in the control samples. Analysis of vari- ance indicated no significant effect of treatment sequence on the values of this param- eter. All treatments produced a similar significant increase in K/T when cycles of chlo- rination increased from 0 to 15, with no further significant change occurring beyond 15 cycles. These results are similar to those seen in the study of the effect of pH (1). Once again, the results indicated that the treated fibers were more flexible. CONCLUSIONS Two distinct trends were seen when chlorination was combined with cosmetic treat- ments, depending upon whether the treatment was applied to the hair before or after

When cos- metic treatments preceded chlorination, the alteration of fiber surfaces and deformation from rubbing were similar to those seen in the chlorination of control fibers (Figure 2a-d). The wrinkled appearance is one that has generally been associated with the chlorination of keratin fibers and has been attributed to the disruption and loss of protein material through the epicuticle, resulting in collapsed scales (3,4). •q•en the app•ic-ation of the eosinerie treatment followed chlorination, the surfaces of the fibers were even more drastically affected (Figure 3a-c). Little or no scale structure was apparent, and fiber surfaces were quite smooth. Cuticular material appeared to have been removed with postchlorination bleaching and dyeing. The more drastically altered fiber surfaces resulted, however, in lower values of coefficient of friction. One possible explanation for the lower friction values observed is the sloughing off of the softened cuticle from the underlying structure, leaving a new rubbing surface which is harder. This is expected to be the case, as the new rubbing surface is less penetrated by the chemical treatment and is closer to the cortex, which is more crystalline. The values of percent weight loss are given in Table III. There was no significant difference between the values of weight loss of the prechlorination cosmetically treated samples and the control samples. Additionally, there was no significant difference be- tween the weight loss of the postchlorination permed samples and the control samples. However, the postchlorination bleached samples exhibited significantly greater weight loss than the other treatments by 10 hours of chlorination. The postdyed samples were
