Hair Care 101
Salon-worthy hair starts with the right home routine
Effective, not excessive. Consistent, not complicated. Discover the simple steps that help protect colour, enhance shine and preserve healthy-looking hair.
Shop hair careBeautiful hair is created in the salon, but it is maintained at home. That glossy, swishable, freshly coloured finish depends on the way hair is cleansed, conditioned, treated and protected between appointments.
The answer is not an overwhelming eight-step ritual or a shelf crowded with products. It is a carefully chosen routine that fits naturally into everyday life.

Four steps for healthier-looking hair
Each step has a clear purpose. Together, they create a manageable routine that supports softness, movement, shine and long-term condition.
Choose a shampoo for your hair’s needs
Cleansing is the foundation of the routine. The right shampoo should remove build-up while respecting the hair fibre and addressing its individual needs.
“Kérastase Genesis is beautifully lightweight and ideal for anyone looking to strengthen the hair while preserving softness and natural movement.”
Its gentle formula helps reinforce weakened strands and can reduce hair fall caused by breakage without leaving the hair heavy or flat.

Create softness, movement and shine
Conditioner smooths the hair fibre, improves manageability and helps create the polished finish associated with healthy, beautifully cared-for hair.
“Gloss Absolu enhances shine and controls frizz without compromising movement.”
The result is hair that feels silky, looks luminous and retains the lightness required for a naturally glossy finish.

Add targeted care where hair needs it most
A nourishing mask goes beyond everyday conditioning, providing a more concentrated moisture boost and helping maintain strength and softness.
“The Genesis Mask replenishes the fibre without weighing the hair down.”
Use a treatment regularly according to your hair’s condition, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends rather than the roots.

Support hair weakened by colour or heat
K18 works at a deeper level to help improve the feel of compromised hair, particularly for those who colour, lighten or heat-style regularly.
“It visibly reduces breakage and improves elasticity, helping the hair feel stronger and more resilient over time.”Explore K18
Never apply heat without protection
Blow-drying, straightening and tonging expose the hair to high temperatures that can weaken the fibre, fade colour and contribute to dryness or breakage.
“Heat protection is not an optional extra. It is an essential part of every styling routine.”
Chroma Thermique is particularly suited to colour-treated hair, helping smooth the cuticle, reduce frizz and preserve shine while creating a protective barrier.
