Infra Environmental High Lift is an ammonia-free, oil-based cream color that lifts and tones in one step, with up to 8 levels of lift. It mixes 1:1 with CHI Color Generator and processes with low heat. Developer sets both lift and time: 10 vol gives 1 to 2 levels in up to 10 minutes, rising to 7 to 8 levels in up to 25 minutes with 40 vol. The nine shades fall into three groups. Blondes are Cool, Beige and Golden. Reds are Red Orange, Red Red and Red Violet. Browns are Natural, Chocolate and Ash. CHI does not recommend 40 vol with the Red or Brown shades.
