Spanish term or phrase: papel térmico

Does anybody know what this term is in English? It is a type of paper used in hair dyeing as an alternative to aluminium foil.

e.g. "Paso 3. Después de aplicar el color en toda la zona de contornos, lo tapamos con un *papel térmico*"

"Paso 5. Iremos alternando una sección con la base en la raíz y en el resto del cabello un superaclarante o decoloración difuminando con el tinte de la raíz, utilizando la técnica de esponja plana, y la siguiente sección con el tinte de base desde raíces hasta puntas. Podemos realizar la técnica con papel de plata, pero es aconsejable realizarla con *papel térmico*, ya que resulta más fácil sobreponer los papeles y es más manejable"

Could this be meche paper? Or is that something different?

Thank you in advance. SLG.

Asker: Thanks FVS. Had been reluctant to use thermal paper as almost all references seem to be to printer/fax paper and anything hair related all seems to be suppliers based in china... hmmm!

thermal paper

Explanation:
Thermal paper is more commonly used in printers, so I don't know about hairdressing. It's possible. Good luck.
