Transform standard hair color services into a luxurious, hair-nourishing treatment that yields remarkably predictable, rich color payout every single time. CHI Ionic Shine Shades Color Generator 20 Volume Cream Developer is specifically engineered to work in flawless harmony with CHI permanent hair colors and lighteners. Formulated with advanced ionic cross-linking technology, this rich cream developer opens the hair cuticle with gentle precision, allowing pigments to penetrate deep into the cortex while preserving the hair's structural integrity. Whether you are lifting up to two levels or achieving full, seamless grey coverage, the velvety texture mixes into a smooth, drip-free emulsion that clings effortlessly to every strand.
What sets this developer apart from generic peroxides is CHI's signature infusion of real silk proteins and natural conditioning agents that actively repair while you process. Chemical processing can often leave hair feeling porous, brittle, or parched, but this formula acts as an immediate moisture cushion. As the developer activates the color molecules, silk amino acids lock into the inner shaft, binding moisture, sealing cuticles, and imparting an unmistakable, mirror-like gloss. The soothing formulation also helps buffer the scalp against tightness or discomfort, turning what is normally a harsh chemical service into a remarkably comfortable salon experience.
Expect touchably soft hair with vibrant, true-to-tone color results that resist fading wash after wash. The pleasant, non-overpowering scent eliminates the suffocating chemical fumes often associated with hair coloring, making both application and processing infinitely more enjoyable. From complete tone-on-tone transformations to subtle dimension and flawless root touch-ups, this professional-grade developer gives you total control over your final shade while leaving the hair feeling significantly stronger and noticeably silkier than before it was colored.
Standard 1–2 Level Lifting & Gray Coverage: The 20 Volume (6%) formulation provides reliable, predictable lifting up to two shades, making it ideal for standard color applications, gray coverage, and tone-on-tone processing. It ensures complete pigment penetration while keeping the hair shaft strong and resilient.
Silk Protein Fortification: Infused with hydrolysed silk proteins that nourish and fortify fragile hair fibers during chemical processing. It locks in moisture and guards against structural damage, leaving hair silky-smooth with exceptional elastic bounce.
Non-Drip Creamy Consistency: Blends smoothly with cream and liquid color formulas to create a rich, luxurious paste that clings firmly to hair. The non-slip texture provides ultimate application control during precise foiling, balayage, or scalp-to-end saturation.
Enhanced Shine & Vibrancy: Works synergistically with CHI ionic color systems to seal the hair cuticle tightly post-processing. This locks in color pigments deeper inside the cortex for vibrant, fade-resistant color with a luminous, light-reflecting shine.
Professional 33.8 oz Value Size: Housed in a generous 1 Liter (33.8 oz) bottle, this professional-grade developer offers great long-term value for high-volume salons and home colorists alike. The easy-pour design ensures accurate measurement without waste or mess.
