Fast-acting hair color helps achieve full gray coverage, root touch-ups or gray blending. The creamy, non-drip formula with Hue Definition Technology helps maintain hair integrity, moisture and shine during coloring.
When both speed and a professional color result matter in the salon, CHI Color Express delivers permanent color in just 10 minutes. The creamy, non-drip formula with Hue Definition Technology helps provide even pigment distribution, high shine and hair conditioning, making the system suitable for root touch-ups, gray coverage and color refreshing.
CHI Color Express uses Hue Definition Technology™ with aloe, hyaluronic acid and silk protein; the system is ammonia-free and designed for concentrated, fast professional coloring.
For professional use only. Mix 1:1 with CHI Developer 20 Volume. For a standard full result, process for 10 minutes at room temperature; for gray blending, CHI specifies 5 minutes. For particularly resistant hair, processing time may be extended to 15 minutes. Wear gloves, divide hair into four sections and perform an allergy test and strand test before coloring.
After the Color Express service, rinse hair thoroughly and continue with CHI Royal Treatment Color Gloss Shampoo and Color Gloss Conditioner. For home care, CHI Royal Treatment Pearl Complex can complement color radiance, while CHI Royal Treatment Royal Guard heat protection spray should be used before blow-drying, curling or straightening.
The CHI professional coloring system is designed so the colorist can precisely control level, tone, developer strength and processing time. Ionic Permanent Shine and related CHI color systems are ammonia-free; CHI uses MEA as the alkaline component and ceramic technology to support color-pigment penetration into the hair. Conditioning during coloring is also central to the system concept: CHI highlights silk and oil complexes that help maintain moisture and shine, along with post-service care using color-protecting shampoo, conditioner and leave-in serum. In professional work, the result does not depend only on the selected shade — the starting level, proportion of gray hair, porosity and desired lift must also be considered. The product should therefore be treated as part of a complete coloring formula rather than as a standalone color without the appropriate CHI developer and correct aftercare.
This is a professional coloring-system product. A safe and predictable result requires the correct choice of shade, developer, mixing ratio and processing time, as well as an allergy test and strand test.
Starting hair level, natural pigment, amount of gray hair, porosity, selected shade, developer strength and processing time.
Choose a pH-balanced shampoo and conditioner suitable for color-treated hair, avoid unnecessarily hot water, and always use heat protection before heat styling.
