CHI Infra Shampoo 12 oz – Hydrating Sulfate-Free Cleanser for Heat-Damaged, Color-Treated Hair

CHI Infra Shampoo is a hydrating, sulfate- and paraben-free cleanser formulated to gently remove buildup while restoring moisture and manageability to heat-damaged hair.

Built around CHI's Infra technology, this 12 oz shampoo targets strands weakened by blow-drying, flat irons, and thermal tools by locking in hydration and reinforcing the hair's inner structure. The formula is cruelty-free and avoids sulfates and parabens, offering a kinder daily-cleansing option that emphasizes improved texture, reduced frizz, and easier styling. Use alone or with CHI Infra treatments to help maintain smoother, healthier-looking hair between salon visits.

How does CHI Infra Shampoo help hair that’s been damaged by heat styling?

The shampoo uses CHI 44 Ceramic and Cationic Hydration Interlink to bind moisture inside the hair shaft, supporting elasticity and reducing breakage from styling. It cleanses without stripping natural oils so hair retains hydration after use.

• Replenishes internal moisture to brittle or weakened strands.
• Reduces frizz and flyaways, improving smoothness.
• Gentle surfactants remove product buildup without harsh sulfates.
• Prepares hair for thermal protection and conditioning treatments.

Will CHI Infra Shampoo work on all hair types, including color-treated hair?

Yes — the gentle, hydrating formula is designed for a wide range of hair types, from fine to coarse, and is formulated without ingredients that commonly strip color. Regular use helps maintain softness and manageability while preserving color vibrancy when combined with color-safe products.

• Safe for color-treated and chemically processed hair.
• Suitable for straight, wavy, curly, and coily textures.
• Sulfate- and paraben-free for milder cleansing action.
• Pairs well with CHI Infra conditioners and thermal treatments.

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Apply to wet hair, work a small amount evenly from scalp to ends, then rinse; repeat if desired for a deeper cleanse. Follow with a CHI Infra conditioner or a leave-in thermal protectant for added moisture and styling protection.

• Wet hair thoroughly before applying a small, dime-to-quarter-sized amount.
• Massage into scalp to lift oils and buildup, then distribute to ends.
• Rinse completely and repeat only if hair feels heavily soiled.
• Finish with matching conditioner or a thermal protective treatment.

Who is this for: CHI Infra Shampoo is ideal for anyone who regularly uses heat tools and wants a gentler, moisture-focused cleanser.
