What is a feature of non-oxidative color?

  1. Permanent color change

  2. Physical change only

  3. Lifts melanin

  4. Replaces primary colors

The correct answer is: Physical change only

Non-oxidative color only causes a physical change in hair, meaning it alters the shade of the hair without permanently changing the color. Option A is incorrect because non-oxidative color does not permanently change the hair color like other types of hair dye. Option C is incorrect because non-oxidative color does not lift melanin, rather it adds pigments to the hair strands. Option D is incorrect because non-oxidative color does not replace primary colors, it adds pigments to the hair without removing any existing pigments.
