CHI Infra Thermal Protective Hair Serum for Color-Treated Hair, 32 oz — Hydrating, Sulfate-Free Shine & Heat Protection

This professional-grade treatment from CHI's Infra line rebuilds and protects hair by delivering moisture and structural support into the hair shaft. Formulated with CHI 44 Ceramic technology and Cationic Hydration Interlink, the serum works with infrared heat to penetrate deeper into the fiber, helping color-treated or stressed hair look smoother, glossier, and easier to style without sulfates or parabens.

How does this treatment protect color and reduce heat damage?

The formula is designed to work alongside heat tools: infrared-compatible ingredients help the treatment bond within the hair, forming a protective layer that reduces surface roughness and moisture loss. While not a guarantee against all damage, regular use helps hair retain color vibrancy and maintain a healthier appearance after blow-drying or flat-ironing.

• Infrared-active CHI 44 Ceramic aids deeper penetration during heat styling.
• Cationic Hydration Interlink locks moisture into the inner hair structure.
• Sulfate-free base reduces stripping of color and natural oils.
• Creates a smoother surface that reflects light for enhanced shine.

What visible benefits will I see for texture, shine, and manageability?

Expect softer, more manageable hair with improved elasticity and a polished finish. The treatment targets rough or overworked strands, helping to reduce tangles and frizz while enhancing natural or color-treated shine.

• Improves comb-through and reduces breakage during styling.
• Adds reflective shine for a healthier-looking finish.
• Increases softness and slip to make detangling easier.
• Helps hair recover resilience after chemical services or heat styling.

How and when should I use this CHI Infra treatment for best results?

Use this treatment after shampooing: apply evenly through damp hair, work from roots to ends, leave on briefly, and rinse. For regular maintenance, incorporate it into your weekly routine; for more intensive repair, allow slightly longer processing before rinsing.

• Apply generously to clean, damp hair after shampooing.
• Distribute evenly with fingers or a wide-tooth comb for full coverage.
• Leave on 2–5 minutes for standard use; extend slightly for deeper conditioning.
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with styling as desired; safe for color-treated hair.
