I pay more attention when it comes to hair care now than before. My hair was very low maintenance before because all it takes to complete my hair care routine every day includes shampoo and conditioner. I don't apply serums and I don't blow dry my hair. I just let it dry naturally and after combing I'm good to go. But as time pass by consider the age factor and numerous chemical treatments that I've gone through, my hair strands became weak and brittle. I have thin limp hair to begin with and it's easily prone to dullness and breakage. The worst thing that happened to my locks was major major hair fall. To address these issues, I change shampoo and conditioner every month- some lessened the hair fall while others make it worst. I already found my HG shampoo with Pure Beauty Tsubaki Treatment Shampoo and Botanique Spa Morocco Argan Oil Shampoo but there are times that my hair still needs extra care and shine. With so many brands of commercial and organic shampoos in the market today, it's very hard to choose which one to try first as most of them promises good results. What my hair needs now is shine! My digi-permed hair will turn three months old this coming November that's why the curls are not that shiny anymore. Thank goodness that Kerastase is here to rescue.
To tell you honestly, I'm not planning to use this shampoo because I was very much contended with the current shampoo that I'm using. I was planning to repurchase another bottle of Botanique Spa shampoo earlier this month but I decided to give this variant a try. If you'll ask me why I veered away from this varaint without trying it first, then the answer would probably my first experience with another variant of Kerastase shampoo- the Reflection Bain Chroma Riche. I had a not so good experience with the first variant of shampoo that I've tried from Kerastase but with this one, that impression vanished! It made me think again that all shampoo variants were created with a purpose and that purpose should serve us well. So do you think this shampoo made a yay or a nay?

What I like:
- Classy, luxurious bottle that's very pretty because it's pastel pink.
- I like the scent, smells so good! I describe it as delicate floral scent.
- My hair feels squeaky clean after use.
- I didn't experienced hair fall with this variant.
- I don't have a hard time combing my hair because it's easier to detangle after every wash.
- My hair looks silky and smooth.
- Doesn't weigh down my hair.
- No dandruff and breakouts on my back and in my forehead.
- Has batch and manufacturing date printed on the bottle.
What I don't like:
- The price! It's verrry expensive for a cheapskate like me
- Even though the packaging is classy and looks luxurious, I prefer pump type bottle because I can control on how much product to dispense.
- Doesn't produce enough lather, I feel like using organic shampoo.
Will I purchase? Maybe, since it's pricey I need to save a lot to get another bottle of this.
Recommendation:
I give this a 4.25/5 rating. To tell you honestly I like this more than the Kerastase Reflection Bain Chroma Riche shampoo that I've tried before. This one has more benefits with my digi-permed and color-treated hair that I really like. If you're a long time reader of my blog, prolly you know that I don't shampoo my hair everyday because I stay at home most of the time. But with this one, I'm breaking my rules because I noticed that I shampoo my hair every other day or for three consecutive days and nothing has changed with my hair. I also have a history of major hair fall but with this one, I have nothing to worry about falling hair strands during and after shampooing my hair. The only downside of this product is the price. It's very expensive for a cheapskate like me. If I have a job I think I can splurge on buying expensive shampoos and this one is the first brand on my hair care essentials. If you're looking for a high-end brand that's worth every peso, then Kerastase is the brand to keep.
