As everyone knows, hair isn’t just hair – it’s so much more than that. A great hair day instantly boosts your confidence and can make you want to say yes to that hot date, job interview, or last-minute dinner with friends. But when it comes to the best routine and products to keep your hair healthy and gorgeous, it can be tricky knowing where to start.

Keep it simple and effective with luxury haircare from Kérastase. Kérastase has a line of haircare products for every hair type and concern, making it your perfect haircare partner. Great hair days are just around the corner thanks to Kérastase – keep reading to discover which products you should be using on your hair.

Excessive Hair Fall

Hair fall is normal, but when you’re losing excessive amounts, it could signal some underlying issues, such as too much stress or hormonal imbalance. It’s always good to get a health check as well as sticking to a nutritious diet and a healthy lifestyle.

To help treat hair fall, switch to a milder shampoo or specially formulated Kérastase shampoo like Genesis  Bain Nutri-Fortifiant. You can also use a product specifically designed for minimising hair fall, such as the Kérastase Genesis Ampoules Cure. Each ampoule comes with a silicone applicator for mess-free use. Apply  once a day for six weeks and see visible improvements as your hair fibres become stronger and less prone  to falling.

Massaging your scalp once a week or so can also improve scalp health as well as stimulating the hair follicles – why not multitask and do it while washing your hair? Using your fingertips, gently massage your shampoo or conditioner into your hair for up to five minutes before rinsing as normal.

Thinning Hair

If you notice that your hair is starting to thin, start using Kérastase Densifique to strengthen and protect it. The Densifique line is specially formulated for hair that lacks density and strength. Start with the Bain Densité Homme Thickening Shampoo, then fortify with the Initialiste Hair and Scalp Concentrate - a non-greasy scalp serum that repairs and nourishes at the hair follicle to leave hair feeling thicker, looking shinier and more resistant to breakage. To address both thinning and greying hair, add Kérastase Densifique Sérum JeunesseThickening Hair Serum Spray into your haircare routine.

Oily Hair

If you have oily hair, it might be tempting to wash your hair more frequently. But did you know that washing your hair too often can actually make oiliness worse? When the scalp becomes too dry due to frequent washing, the body compensates by producing more oil – leaving you back where you started.

To restore balance, try using Kérastase Bain Divalent Balancing Shampoo, which regulates sebum production on the scalp by cleansing, purifying, and nourishing it with glycine and vitamin B6. The Kérastase Fusio-Scrub is also a great option for energising oily scalps. Its refreshing blend of sweet orange peel and jojoba gently removes sebum and hydrates the scalp without leaving residue. To minimise oiliness, you can also skip the leave-in conditioners and avoid brushing your hair too much.

Dry and Brittle Hair

We all know that dry hair turns brittle, and brittle hair breaks. If you don’t want to end up with a head full of split ends, start using Kérastase hair masks to rehydrate your locks. Boost hair nutrition and moisture, reverse damage, and reconstruct your hair with the Kérastase Resistance Masque Force Architecte Hair Mask.

Alternating between moisture and protein hair products can give your hair deep treatment without causing too much build-up. Opt for a clarifying shampoo every week to keep your scalp clean - Kérastase Specifique Bain Vital Dermo-Calm is just what you need for cleansing and re-balancing. It purifies the scalp and gently moisturises it to restore hair vitality.

Frizzy Hair

Frizzy hair is tricky hair – it tends to be dry, but it absorbs moisture from the air and can swell like nobody’s business. So humidity makes it worse, but highly static dry air also aggravates it too – leaving you stuck between a rock and a hard place. Fortunately, you can calm the frizz with pH-balanced shampoos and conditioners. Try Kérastase Discipline Fondant Fluidealiste Anti-Frizz Conditioner to add moisture and keep frizz at bay. When it comes to styling, the Keratin Thermique: Blow-dry Perfector instantly smooths hair fibres for anti-frizz and anti-humidity, leaving your hair soft, shiny and easy to manage.

Make sure you use sulphate-free shampoos to avoid drying your hair further. Add leave-in conditioners with silicones into your routine, as well as hot oil treatments every now and then. In bed, use silk pillows to reduce static, so you wake up with hair that’s smooth and tame.

Coloured and Heat-Treated Hair

The use of heat for styling and frequent colour treatments damage hair. Always use a heat protectant like Kérastase Resistance Ciment Thermique to minimise the effect on the structural integrity of your hair. Keep your hair’s condition topped up with a deep conditioning mask once a week to restore moisture. Protein-based products, such as those with keratin, help your strands regain strength and structure.

For coloured hair, use toning products to keep colours vibrant in between visits to the salon. Reverse damage and restore hair health with sulphate-free treatments, with the Kérastase Chroma Absolu range for colour-treated hair. Keep hair from fading with the Kérastase Chroma Absolu Bain Riche Shampoo. Follow with a couple of pumps of Sérum Chroma Thermique and which tames frizz and protects against humidity. At least once a week, give your hair deep conditioning with Masque Chroma Filler to keep hair healthy and the colours vibrant.

So now you’ve found your hair’s perfect match, shop Kérastase on allbeauty today and instantly upgrade your haircare routine.
