Gloss Absolu - Bain Hydra-Glaze Shampoo, Shampoo

Works on Afro Textured Hair

All I can say is WOW. I would like to start by saying, that in my opinion, most products that cost a lot of money are not worth it – this is the exception! In the picture I have used all four items from the Absolu Gloss line then finished off with the split end serum, also by Kerastase, on my ends. Shampoo: when I typically use shampoo, I find that I normally have to use enough to cover about half of my palm. With this shampoo, a quarter sized amount is more than enough! Even though the bottle is a typical size, I normally buy jumbo bottles with a pump, this is going to last me so long because of how little I need. It removed everything from my hair; I had previously used a lot of dry shampoo, hairspray, blowout, products, heat, protectant sprays, and more over the course of a week. The shampoo left my hair so soft and my curls more defined and bonus: It smells amazing. I will definitely be spending the money to keep using this hair care line (fyi I buy everything in life on sale - this is a first for me to be willing to pay for something regular price 😂).

Dry

It really gives you a glossy look but I would not recommend any of this products for a long term, my hair is kindy oily on the top and dry on the ends… after 3 or 4 uses my hair started feeling dry… dry with shine

Negative shampoo

The smell is so strong of grapefruit and chemicals. If you are sensitive beware. And this really dried out my hair. It didn’t lather well either. I also didn’t realize it has sulfates which is terrible for bleached hair so returned. bleachehair so returning. hair so

Honest Review

I like the way it looks but the application of it is terrible. I prefer a pump dispenser, it’s easy and quick to use. This one requires two hands to open and honestly I don’t have time to close the bottle when it’s soapy. It smells really good, but I did find myself gagging when I put held my hair with my mouth when doing my hair. So it’s very potent. My hair was still frizzy, but my hair is glossy (however I believe it’s cause of the conditioner and not necessarily the shampoo). I would not purchase

Not a fan

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I am not a fan of this shampoo. I thought it would add shine to my hair, but it doesn't. The smell is okay. Not my favorite. I also don't like all the extras they add to the product. It father's okay. The bottle they chose is stupid.

A must have

I had heard good reviews about this product. I decided to go ahead and pick up the shampoo, conditioner, spray in conditioner, and the oil. I have fine thin long hair and I generally wash my hair every other day. I found that many conditioners and oils weigh my hair down and to my surprise this line has not. I have gotten so many compliments on my hair about how shiny and healthy it looks since I started using this product. I definitely have to say that this product is worth the money that you pay for it I can't say anything bad about it and my hair looks the healthiest that it has been in years. I'm 47 years old and in all this time I have not found a product yet until this that does such an amazing job. I forgot to add this I do have psoriasis on my scalp and this does not bother it at all.

Nice rose shampoo

Love this shampoo, made my hair feel soft and shing. Easy to use bottle, no need to squeeze it out.

Nice shampoo

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This was a nice shampoo and left my hair clean, shiny, and smelling nice. I’ve tried from a lot of different brands and this one can be worth the price if you can get it during the sale

My hair has never felt as soft and healthy as it does now. It smells good too. I have thick & long hair. I used it with the conditioner and the leave in oil. 10/10

Worst shampoo ever

I have a few different Kerastase shampoos that I rotate, this is my newest addition and I hate it. My roots look so greasy on the second day it’s disgusting. I’ve tried using my beloved k18 air wash and it doesn’t help at all with this shampoo.

Highly recommend for anyone wanting smooth, glassy

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] If you’re looking to elevate your hair care routine, the Kérastase Gloss Absolue Hydra-Glaze Shampoo is worth the investment. This luxurious formula delivers intense hydration and smoothness without weighing hair down. My hair feels cleaner, softer, and noticeably shinier after every wash. It also helps tame frizz and enhances that glossy, salon-fresh look. The scent is elegant and lingers in the best way — it truly turns wash day into a pampering experience. Perfect for color-treated or frizz-prone hair, especially when paired with the matching conditioner or oil.

Adding to the rotation

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Left my chemically treated hair soft and shiny. My scalp felt clean, but not dry. The smell was great and did seem to linger for a day or so after washing.
