The objective of this Ph.D. project was to study the role of transition metal ions in oxidative hair colouring. Model systems corresponding to real-life hair colouring conditions were designed to examine copper(II) and iron(III) catalysed decomposition of alkaline hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical formation.
