Chroma is Aloxxi's permanent crème hair colour, sold through professional and salon-only distribution rather than direct to consumers — it is not a boxed, at-home colour kit. The line spans more than 100 shades across three series (a 4-series built for grey coverage, a 6-series for tone control, and an 8-series of fashion shades) and is built around Aloxxi's CDP Complex to condition, deposit colour, and protect the hair during processing. The formula is low-ammonia rather than ammonia-free, uses coconut oil-derived emollients and conditioning co-polymers to help offset the dryness of permanent colour, and includes bisabolol, a plant-derived calming agent, for scalp comfort during application. Colourists mix Chroma with Aloxxi's peroxide developer at a standard 1:1.5 ratio, with developer volume and processing time adjusted for the level of grey coverage or lift required — this is a professional formulation meant to be diagnosed and applied by a licensed colourist, not measured out at home.
This is a professional-use permanent hair colour sold exclusively to licensed salons, spas, and med spas — Aloxxi restricts distribution to trade accounts and does not market or sell it as a consumer at-home colour kit. It's intended for a working colourist mixing custom formulas for clients who need full grey coverage, tone correction, or a level change (via lift), across all hair types and any hair length. It is not suited to someone without colour-mixing training: developer selection, ratio, and processing time all change the outcome, and incorrect formulation can cause uneven colour, over-lightening, or scalp irritation.
For a colourist, Chroma's advantage is flexibility within one system: the same base line handles straightforward grey coverage, tonal correction, and multi-level lift, with the developer volume and processing window doing the work rather than switching between different product lines for each service type. The CDP Complex and coconut-derived conditioning agents are formulated in specifically to offset the strand damage that comes from oxidative, ammonia-based processing.
For sale and use by licensed professionals only; perform a patch/strand test per standard salon protocol before full application
Mix Chroma with Aloxxi peroxide developer at a standard ratio of 1 part colour to 1.5 parts developer
For tone-on-tone grey coverage, use 10 volume developer with roughly 25–35 minutes processing time
For 1–2 levels of lift, use 20 or 30 volume developer with roughly 30–45 minutes processing time
For up to 3 levels of lift, use 40 volume developer with roughly 40–50 minutes processing time
For the Chroma Platinum high-lift series specifically, mix at a 1:2 ratio with Aloxxi Crème H2O2 Developer instead
Apply per standard permanent colour technique, monitor processing visually, then rinse and follow with a color-safe conditioner
Pros:
CDP Complex and coconut-derived emollients are built in to counter the drying effect typical of ammonia-based permanent colour
Low-ammonia (vs. high-ammonia legacy formulas) while still delivering 100% grey coverage and true lift
Wide shade range (100+) across grey-coverage, tone-control, and fashion series covers most salon formulation needs from one line
Bisabolol addition is a genuine scalp-comfort ingredient, not just a marketing add-on
Cons:
Professional-only distribution means it cannot legally or practically be purchased and used by an untrained consumer — not an at-home option
Still ammonia-containing (low, not ammonia-free), so it's not suitable for clients seeking a fully ammonia-free process — Aloxxi Tones is the better fit there
Requires accurate developer-volume selection (10/20/30/40 vol) matched to the desired result; using the wrong volume changes both color outcome and processing time
Like any permanent oxidative colour, a patch/strand test and processing-time judgment are required

I usually buy from a supply outlet but they were out of stock so I happened to stumble onto this site. I'm glad I did. Quick delivery, great price and great selection!
