Chroma Absolu

For most people, our hair is a huge part of our identity, of who we are, and how we want the world to see us. No matter what hair color you choose, Chroma Absolu will support your hair in-salon and at home.







Chroma Absolu: The Benefits

Chroma Absolu is an efficient range that effectively tackles color-induced damage from hair fiber porosity that leads to accelerated color fade and hair oxidation. This can leave hair with unwanted red and copper tones, as well as a change in hair texture including frizz, dullness and roughness to the touch. Based on years of research, the foundation of Chroma Absolu contains a trilogy of acids - Tartaric, Amino and Lactic. This technology works to rebuild the strands, shield against environmental aggressors, whilst boosting shine and reducing frizz.

Meet the Chroma Absolu Range

The Chroma Absolu experience starts with the post-color intense caring concentrate - Concentre Acide Aminé; a hydrating hair treatment that offers protection and nutrition, and the Booster Resurfaçant; an intense caring booster for colored hair (great for resurfacing hair for ultimate softness and instant care). To wash and care for your color treated hair, you can choose between two shampoos, Bain Chroma Respect for fine to medium hair and Bain Riche Chroma Respect for medium to thick hair. For gentle care, both are Silicone-free , Sulfate-free and Paraben-free. The formulas protect your hair by not stripping or fading the color. After just 6 weeks of using one of the color protecting shampoos, hair is healthy and 92% of color intensity* is preserved. *Instrumental test Bain Chroma Respect + Fondant Cica Chrome / Bain Riche + Masque Chroma Filler / Bain Riche + Soin Acide Chroma Gloss

Masque Vert Chroma Neutralisant is a protecting and hydrating hair treatment for brunettes. Just as blondes can rely on purple care to neutralize yellow undertones, now brunettes have the adapted care to eliminate red and copper undertones for a cooler darker brown hair. Along with color correcting properties, this masque also hydrates and strengthens the hair. Apply this masque once a week to towel-dried hair and leave on for 5 minutes for best results.





The star of the Chroma Absolu show is the shine-boosting treatment Soin Acide Chroma Gloss. Starting as a transparent fluid texture, this hair treatment transforms into a rich white cream when in contact with water. The miracle formula deeply cares for hair fibers while transforming and sealing the surface for reduced porosity, intense softness and a bright shine. Hair is so healthy that color lasts longer.






Heat and UV damage are serious color enemies that can lead to unwanted fading, which is why Sérum Chroma Thermique has been formulated to intensively shield and protect against multiple external aggressors: UV induced damage, humidity, heat and oxidative stress. This offers intense protection against humidity and water molecules in the air for 77% less color induced frizz*. It contains thermo-protection up to 230°C*.
