Developed for women with natural curls and texture, CHI’s new Aloe Vera with Agave Nectar Haircare Line is a seven-piece collection providing solutions to enhance definition, moisturize hair, and maintain frizz for smoother styling. Its special blend of Aloe Vera and Agave Nectar paired with a Super Hydration blend and a low pH will moisturize, protect and care for curls while helping to define, create and maintain the natural curl pattern of each strand.
The formula locks in moisture to guard against humidity and provide easier maintenance of curly hair. Inviting your natural wave pattern to show off its shape, benefits are maximized to intensify moisture and retention and increase elasticity and definition.
Aloe Vera contains a vast amount of essential nutrients and vitamins with conditioning properties and protection while soothing dry skin and scalp. Utilizing the benefits of amino acids to improve elasticity and strength, this natural humectant retains hair moisture, locking it in to reveal smoothness and reduced frizz.
Agave Nectar helps to prevent future damage and brittleness and fortifies weak hair strands resulting in tamed hair with lustrous, shiny results. The line’s formula is completed with the addition of Silk and a Super Hydration Blend.
