Chi Transformation

How Does The System Work? 

Ceramic Heat, Ions, Cationic Hydration Interlink and Silk permanently transform frizzy, curly, wavy or coarse hair into silky controlled straighter hair.

 What are Ions?

 An ion is an atom that has gained or lost an electron and carries a charge of energy. Ions are found in two forms – positive and negative.
Hair in itself is negatively charged. Silk is positively charged. By the law of physics, in nature opposites attract.

 Why The Ceramic Heat?

 Not all flat irons are created equal. Irons on the market today are either metal or ceramic plated. This causes uneven heat distribution. The result is dehydrated flyaway hair, loss of moisture and premature color fade.
Never use a non-ceramic iron on transformed hair.
The CHI irons we use are solid ceramic. Ceramic conducts and maintains heat more efficiently than any other material known to man. It provides a moist heat that maintains the moisture levels in hair and it produces negative ions. The negative ions help to push the silk molecules permanently deep inside the cortex. The results are soft, smooth, shiny and silky hair.

Frequently asked Questions

 

What are chemical hair care services?
· Chemical hair services include permanent waving, straightening, and hair

What should I do if my hair isn’t in the best condition?
· The first thing you should consider is asking the operator to do a pretest.

What are the different pretests?
· For permanent wave services, a preliminary test curl may be done. This type of test will help determine how the hair will react to a permanent. It is usually done on tinted, bleached, or overporous hair, or on hair that shows signs of damage.
A test curl also indicates actual processing time and curl results based on rod size and the product used.

· For color services, the operator may perform a strand test. This pretest is given before the treatment to determine development time, color result, and the ability of the hair to withstand the effects of chemicals.

· If your hair is color-treated, or if you are visiting a new perator, ask for a strand test to ensure the quality of the service, and that you’ll get your desired result.

How am I protected during the procedure?
· For all chemical hair services, a towel and/or other sanitary neck strip must be used to keep the full-length protective covering (i.e., shampoo cape, drape, smock, etc.) from coming in direct contact with a client’s skin.

· The towel will also protect the client from solution that may drip during the service. (The operator may also spread petroleum jelly on the skin to help protect it.)

· The towel must be changed frequently. If it is too wet, it cannot absorb more liquids. If it has absorbed chemical drips, prolonged exposure to it can burn your skin.

What happens if the chemical solution gets on me?
· The chemical solution must be removed from the skin immediately on contact.· If you feel chemicals dripping on your skin or any burning sensation, you should immediately inform the operator.

Can the strong odor hurt me?
· Although some chemicals may have strong odors, they should not cause you discomfort.· Salons and barbershops should have adequate ventilation to keep the odors from lingering. If the chemical odor causes you any discomfort, immediately inform the operator.

Why do I have to wait before shampooing my hair?
· Because the chemical application causes a change to your hair, it is imperative
that the hair be allowed to adjust before it is shampooed.
· Listen to your cosmetologist’s or barber’s advice to wait so many days (or hours)
before you shampoo or use any hot implements on your hair. Otherwise you
could severely damage it
