Through polymerisation, colour molecules are locked inside the hair - so the colour cannot wash away.
Polymerisation is a process in which relatively small molecules, called monomers, combine chemically to produce a very large chainlike or network molecule, called a polymer. Hair is made up of mostly protein and proteins are one of many types of natural polymers. Polymerisation causes the hair dye molecules to bond with the natural colour molecules inside the hair. It is not a plastic nor does it coat the hair.
