CHI Ionic Permanent Shine Hair Color FAQs

Q: How can color lift without ammonia?
A: Ammonia is not the lifting agent in hair colors; hydrogen peroxide is mainly in charge of the lifting action. In conventional color, ammonia’s function is to swell and harshly open the cuticle layer by creating a harmful gas, when mixed with hydrogen peroxide. CHI Ionic Permanent Shine Hair Color uses new Advanced American Technology with a mild, yet effective, alkaline called monoethanolamine (MEA).

Q: How is it possible to lift tint with tint?
A: CHI Ionic Permanent Shine Hair Color has the revolutionary ability to lift tint with tint. This gives a huge advantage to hair color artists. It gives the possibility to change the level and color tone in one single, easy step. Most importantly, CHI Ionic Permanent Shine Hair Color will always respect the integrity of the hair. CHI Ionic Permanent Shine Hair Color does not contain any ammonia, therefore, a consistent pH is maintained during the whole coloring process.
