When it comes to luxury haircare, Kérastase has it covered. A firm favourite with celebrity hairstylists, Kérastase sets the bar when it comes to addressing specific haircare problems. Each Kérastase product range is specially formulated to address particular issues – from hair loss to dryness, damage and frizz. Allbeauty brings you the ultimate Kérastase range guide, so you can find the right range for you and give your hair the luxury care it deserves.

1. Kérastase Genesis - To Treat Hair Fall

The Genesis Homme range is designed specifically to combat hair fall in men, so his hair can look and feel as good as yours.
