Aveda Scalp Solutions: Hydrating Hair & Scalp Masque for Healthy Shine
Introducing Aveda’s Scalp Solutions Hydrating Hair & Scalp Masque
We’re thrilled to announce the arrival of Aveda’s NEW Scalp Solutions Hydrating Hair & Scalp Masque at Chroma Salon! This revolutionary treatment is powered by advanced biotech natural moisture recharge technology and enriched with vegan squalane, delivering dual-impact hydration for both scalp and hair.
Revolutionary Dual-Impact Technology
This luxurious masque is all about "dual impact." It not only hydrates and restores the scalp’s moisture barrier by 77%, but it also deeply hydrates hair strands, leaving them smoother and with 94% more shine.
The formula is designed for normal-to-dry and dry, stressed scalps, and is suitable for all hair types and textures—including chemically treated hair. With 97% naturally derived ingredients, it’s also silicone-free, 100% vegan, and dermatologist-tested, making it a natural and sustainable option for a healthier scalp and hair.
The Science of Moisture: Squalane vs. Squalene
You may have heard of squalene, a lipid molecule naturally produced by the human body, known for its ability to keep skin moisturized. However, Aveda’s Scalp Solutions Masque uses squalane, the plant-based alternative to squalene, which mimics the benefits of the skin’s natural oils. Derived from sugarcane through biofermentation, squalane is more stable and has a longer shelf life compared to squalene, making it an excellent moisturizing agent for both scalp and hair.
How It Works: Targeting the Scalp Lipid Matrix
Our scalp has a lipid matrix within the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the skin. This lipid matrix plays a critical role in maintaining the scalp’s moisture barrier and preventing transepidermal water loss. When the barrier is weakened, it leads to dryness, discomfort, and potential scalp issues.
Aveda’s Scalp Solutions Masque, with its advanced moisture recharge technology, targets this lipid matrix, providing instant, soothing scalp hydration while supporting the long-term health of your scalp.
How to Use It: In-Shower Care for Better Hair Days
The Scalp Solutions Hydrating Masque is an easy addition to your shower routine. On wash days, use this in place of your conditioner whenever you need that extra boost of soothing hydration. Apply it from scalp to ends, leave it on for a few minutes, and rinse thoroughly. It’s perfect for recharging both your scalp and hair, giving you smooth, shiny results.
Why It Matters for Your Hair Routine
A healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair, and this masque makes scalp care simple. By using this treatment, you can reduce scalp discomfort, prevent flaking from dryness, and experience shinier, more hydrated hair. It’s a win-win for anyone who wants to nourish their scalp while achieving beautiful, glowing hair.
Ready to Hydrate and Restore?

The Science Behind Hair Growth: Understanding the Hair Growth Cycle
At Chroma Salon, we believe that healthy hair begins with understanding the science behind hair growth. By comprehending the hair growth cycle, you can better care for your locks and enhance their health and appearance. Let's delve into the stages of the hair growth cycle, factors influencing hair growth, and ways to promote it effectively.
The Hair Growth Cycle
The hair growth cycle consists of three primary stages: anagen, catagen, and telogen. Each stage plays a crucial role in the development and renewal of hair.
Anagen Phase (Growth Phase)
Duration: 2-7 years
Description: This is the active growth phase where the hair follicle is fully functional. The length of this phase determines the maximum length of your hair.
Promotion Tips: Maintaining a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals, such as biotin, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids, can support prolonged hair growth during this phase.
Catagen Phase (Transition Phase)
Duration: 2-3 weeks
Description: The catagen phase is a short transitional period where hair growth stops, and the hair follicle shrinks. This phase marks the end of the active growth of a hair strand.
Promotion Tips: Gentle hair care routines that avoid harsh chemicals and excessive heat can help minimize damage during this sensitive phase.
Telogen Phase (Resting Phase)
Duration: 3-4 months
Description: In this phase, hair follicles are inactive, and the old hair is gradually shed to make way for new hair growth.
Promotion Tips: Regular scalp massages with essential oils, like those found in Aveda products, can stimulate blood circulation and promote the transition back to the anagen phase.
Factors Influencing Hair Growth
Several factors can impact the hair growth cycle, including genetics, age, hormonal changes, and lifestyle choices. Here at Chroma Salon, we emphasize a holistic approach to hair health, incorporating both professional treatments and at-home care routines.
Genetics: Your genetic makeup largely determines the length of your anagen phase and overall hair growth potential.
Hormones: Hormonal changes, such as those experienced during pregnancy or menopause, can affect hair growth patterns.
Lifestyle: Stress, diet, and environmental factors can all influence the health of your hair. A balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management are essential for maintaining optimal hair growth.
Promoting Hair Growth with Aveda and Chroma Salon
At Chroma Salon, we exclusively use Aveda products, renowned for their natural, plant-based ingredients that support hair health. Here are a few ways to promote hair growth using our favorite Aveda products:
Nutriplenish™ Collection: Packed with omega-5-rich organic pomegranate oil and coconut oil, the Nutriplenish™ line deeply hydrates and nourishes hair, promoting a healthy scalp environment conducive to hair growth.
Invati Advanced™ System: Designed specifically for thinning hair, the Invati Advanced™ system reduces hair loss and keeps hair in the anagen phase longer, helping you maintain fuller, thicker hair.
Botanical Repair™ Collection: Strengthen and repair hair from the inside out with this collection, which uses plant-powered molecules to rebuild bonds in the hair, reducing breakage and supporting overall hair health.
Understanding the hair growth cycle is key to achieving and maintaining healthy, beautiful hair. By recognizing the stages of growth and the factors that influence them, you can tailor your hair care routine to support optimal hair health. At Chroma Salon, our expert stylists are here to guide you in choosing the right Aveda products and treatments to promote hair growth and enhance your hair's natural beauty.

Transform Your Hair in Seconds: Aveda's Botanical Repair™ Bond-Building Flash Treatment
Introducing a breakthrough in haircare technology from Aveda: the Botanical Repair™ Bond-Building Flash Treatment. This innovative treatment is a leap forward in achieving healthier, shinier, and smoother hair, leveraging the power of botanical science to deliver remarkable results in just 10 seconds.
The Science of Strength and Shine
At the heart of this treatment is a corn-derived sugar molecule, a marvel of botanical science, which penetrates deep into the hair cortex to forge thousands of new bonds. This molecular reinforcement dramatically strengthens the hair from within, ensuring enhanced integrity and resilience against breakage.
Botanical Brilliance for Every Strand
Infused with a nourishing macro green blend of certified organic avocado, green tea, and sacha inchi seed oils, the treatment works to seal the cuticle, smoothing out frayed layers and locking in essential lipids. This not only detangles and prevents breakage but also significantly reduces frizz and flyaways, making hair more manageable.
Luminous Results
What sets this treatment apart is its unparalleled ability to boost hair's shine. Vegan lactic acid gently resurfaces the cuticle, laying the foundation for flawless smoothness, while positively charged lamellar structures cling to damaged areas, creating a lightweight veil that reflects light beautifully. The result is hair that is not just two times smoother but also two times shinier after just one use.
Simplicity in Use
Designed for all hair types and textures, and safe for color-treated and chemically processed hair, incorporating this treatment into your routine is effortless. Simply apply after shampooing and conditioning, leave on for 10 seconds, and rinse thoroughly to unlock a transformation that's both instant and profound.
Commitment to Sustainability
True to Aveda's ethos, the Botanical Repair™ Bond-Building Flash Treatment is 98% naturally derived, vegan, and cruelty-free, packaged in bottles made with a minimum of 90% post-consumer recycled materials. It's an investment in your hair's health that also respects the planet.
Experience the Difference

Exploring the Depths of Aveda's Hair Color Spectrum at Chroma Salon: The Art of Toners and Glossing
At Chroma Salon, we pride ourselves on offering a comprehensive hair coloring experience with Aveda's professional range. Beyond basic coloring, the art of toning and glossing plays a crucial role in achieving the perfect hair color. In this post, we'll delve into how Aveda's toners and glossing services can elevate your hair color experience.
1. Understanding Toners and Glossing:
Toners and glossing treatments are essential steps in the hair coloring process, often the unsung heroes that perfect the final look.
Toners: These are used to refine the hair color, neutralize unwanted tones, and add subtle nuances. Aveda's color line includes toners that work harmoniously with their coloring agents to achieve the desired shade and vibrancy.
Glossing Services: Glossing adds shine and intensity to the hair. Aveda's glossing treatments enhance the hair's natural color or boost the vibrancy of colored hair. They also help in blending grey hair and refreshing color.
2. The Role of Toners in Hair Coloring:
Toners are particularly important in balancing and maintaining the integrity of the hair color.
Balancing Color: After lightening the hair, toners help achieve the exact shade you desire, whether it's a cool blonde, a warm brunette, or any shade in between.
Longevity of Color: By helping to seal the hair cuticle, toners extend the life of your hair color, ensuring it fades on tone and remains vibrant for longer.
3. Glossing: More Than Just Shine:
Glossing treatments at Chroma Salon go beyond adding a reflective shine to your hair.
Color Enhancement: Glossing can intensify the depth and richness of your hair color, adding dimensions that weren't previously visible.
Hair Health: Along with enhancing the visual appeal, glossing treatments also condition the hair, contributing to overall hair health and manageability.
4. Aveda's Approach to Toners and Glossing:
Aveda's toners and glossing services are designed with the same commitment to hair health and environmental responsibility as their coloring products.
Plant-Derived Ingredients: Aveda's formulations, including toners and glosses, use plant-derived ingredients that are gentle on the hair and scalp.
Sustainable Beauty: Continuing their commitment to sustainability, Aveda's toning and glossing products are produced with eco-friendly practices.
5. Customized Toning and Glossing at Chroma Salon:
Our expert stylists at Chroma Salon are adept at using Aveda's toners and glossing treatments to customize and perfect every color service. Whether you're looking for a subtle tone adjustment or a dramatic change, we have the tools and expertise to achieve your desired results.

Introducing Color Control Leave-In Treatment: Preserve Your Vibrant Hair Color
Water, heat, sun... These three factors can all contribute to hair color fading. But fear not! We have the perfect solution to help you maintain your vibrant hair color. Introducing Color Control Leave-In Treatment, the latest innovation from Aveda.
What exactly are Color Control Leave-In Treatments? They are conditioning leave-in treatment products available in both a light and rich formula, specially formulated with plant-powered, color-protection technology. These treatments work by creating an invisible, lightweight seal on the hair cuticle, which lasts until the next wash. This seal helps prevent color molecules from escaping, keeping your tones vibrant and color-true wash after wash. With Color Control Leave-In Treatments, you can protect your hair color for up to 12 weeks or 36 washes. Say goodbye to premature color fading!
One of the key benefits of Color Control Leave-In Treatments is their ability to defend against the main causes of color fading. They not only protect your hair from thermal damage up to 450 degrees, which can impact color radiance, but they also contain natural UV filters that shield your hair from the drying effects of the sun. This means you can enjoy your time outdoors without compromising the vibrancy of your color-treated hair.
Now, let's talk about the two variations of Color Control Leave-In Treatments. The Light formula is specially designed for all hair textures, from fine to medium, and is perfect for those with color-treated hair. On the other hand, the Rich formula is tailored for medium to thick hair textures, ensuring that everyone can benefit from its color-preserving qualities.
Using Color Control Leave-In Treatment is easy. After washing your hair, simply apply it to damp hair and leave it in. There's no need to rinse it out. Then, style your hair as usual, knowing that your color is protected and your hair is receiving the nourishment it deserves.
Not only does Color Control Leave-In Treatment protect your color, but it also offers other fantastic benefits. This conditioning leave-in treatment instantly detangles your hair, leaving it silky, soft, and smooth. It provides superior conditioning and softness without weighing down your hair or relying on silicones.
The formulation of Color Control Leave-In Treatment showcases Aveda's commitment to using natural ingredients. It is 98% naturally derived and free from silicones, making it a vegan and cruelty-free choice. Let's take a closer look at some of the functional botanicals that make this treatment exceptional:
The formula creates an invisible, lightweight seal on the hair cuticle, ensuring that color molecules stay in place and your tones remain vibrant.
Natural UV filters derived from sand ginger protect your hair from the sun's drying effects, maintaining its health and shine.
Certified organic apricot seed oil, rich in omega 6 and omega 9 fatty acids, deeply conditions your hair, keeping it soft, bouncy, and hydrated.
Certified organic avocado oil smoothes the cuticle, making detangling a breeze.
Arginine, a biofermented amino acid, and lactic acid biofermented from sugar beets seal and smooth the cuticle, providing incredible shine from roots to ends.

Are you tired of struggling with an itchy, flaky scalp? Do you want to achieve healthier hair? Look no further than our new product line, Scalp Solutions!
Our Scalp Solutions system is designed to exfoliate, cleanse, balance, and protect the scalp, which is the foundation for healthy, beautiful hair. The system is comprised of several components, each of which plays a unique role in achieving optimal scalp health.
First up, we have the Scalp Solutions Stimulating Massager. This soft-bristled massaging brush gently yet effectively lifts impurities from the scalp, increasing scalp micro-circulation with massage, and priming the scalp to prepare for the Scalp Solutions regimen. The massager can be used on dry scalp or with Scalp Solutions Exfoliating Scalp Treatment, Balancing Shampoo, and Replenishing Conditioner, making it a versatile addition to your hair care routine.
Next, we have the Scalp Solutions Exfoliating Scalp Treatment, an exfoliant that gently yet deeply exfoliates the scalp, reduces excess sebum, and removes pollution and product build-up without disrupting the scalp barrier. This treatment works to restore the scalp's natural balance and promote healthy hair growth.
Our Scalp Solutions Balancing Shampoo is a daily shampoo that gently cleanses and helps remove excess oil, pollution, and product build-up to balance and replenish the scalp and hair. This shampoo is gentle and non-irritating to the scalp, providing an instant cooling sensation that feels refreshing and invigorating.
After shampooing, we have the Scalp Solutions Replenishing Conditioner, a daily conditioner that replenishes, hydrates, and softens the scalp and hair. This conditioner provides hydration and nourishment to the scalp and hair, making it perfect for all hair types, including fine, medium, and thick hair.
Next in line is the Scalp Solutions Refreshing Protective Mist, a scalp treatment that provides antioxidant protection and helps control excess sebum. This treatment instantly reduces sebum by 20%, providing lasting sebum control that keeps your scalp fresher and cleaner for longer.
And finally, our hero product - the Overnight Scalp Renewal Serum. This serum helps fight the visible signs of premature scalp aging while you sleep. It strengthens and repairs the scalp barrier to support a balanced microbiome, restores scalp moisture and suppleness for increased scalp comfort, and protects against environmental stressors that can lead to premature visible scalp aging. Say goodbye to dryness, redness, and scaling with this pillow-proof serum that won't leave a residue on your pillow.
In conclusion, our Scalp Solutions system is the ultimate solution for achieving a healthy, clean scalp and beautiful hair. Try it out today and see the results for yourself!
Celebrate Earth Month with Our Limited-Edition Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment
At Chroma Salon, we're proud to exclusively use Aveda products, which are not only good for your hair, but also good for the planet. Every year, we celebrate Earth Month by selling limited-edition Aveda products, and this year we're excited to offer the Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment in a special 125mL size and limited-edition packaging.
This leave-in treatment is a fan favorite for a reason - it instantly strengthens, repairs, and helps protect against damage while building bonds for stronger hair from the inside out. It's perfect for reducing frizz and detangling to help prevent breakage, and it even protects against heat up to 450°, safeguarding against damage caused during blow-drying and heat styling.
But that's not all - $10 of each purchase of this limited-edition Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment directly helps support clean water projects through our partnership with charity: water. From March 26th to September 30th, 2023 (or until supplies last), Aveda will donate $10 USD per bottle sold in all participating Aveda locations and online to help provide clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries, up to a total donation of $600,000 USD.
This leave-in treatment is 99% naturally derived per the ISO 16128 standard, and vegan and cruelty-free. It's suitable for all hair types and textures, as well as color-treated and chemically processed hair. Plus, it's free of mineral oil, parabens, silicone, and synthetic fragrances.
So how does it work? The Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment creates new bonds by the thousands, strengthening the hair's cortex, and prevents and protects from damage with its plant-derived components. These include:
Bond-building plant molecule: This molecule builds new hydrogen bonds deep in hair's cortex to strengthen and reinforce hair's integrity at the core.
Nourishing macro green blend: This blend replenishes the essentials of healthy-looking hair with certified organic avocado, green tea, and sacha inchi oils. It smooths the cuticle to detangle and helps prevent breakage.
Plant-based complex: This complex creates an invisible botanical outer layer to protect hair from future damage.
And of course, the Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment has Aveda's own Pure-Fume™ aroma with certified yang yang, rose, and marjoram essential oils.
We're so excited to offer this limited-edition Botanical Repair™ Leave-In Treatment during Earth Month, and we hope you'll join us in supporting clean water projects while also treating your hair to some much-needed TLC. Visit Chroma Salon or shop online to get yours today!
