PCS, The Original Color Protector, Conditioner, Styling Aid
Why use PCS?
Polymerization occurs when hair color and peroxide developers are mixed together. Excess peroxide is created and left behind for this reaction to be completed. It is for this free peroxide that you see lift; the higher the peroxide level, the more lift you see.
