Kerastase...How Good is it Really???

brownrelaxedhair · Oct 10, 2003

Hi Nyambura,

I wasn't the one to mention that website. Its good though that we're hearing of diff sites though to choose from

.

The only one that I know about and purchased some of my Kerastase products from is www.thehairshop.co.uk It was alot cheaper than buying this line in the US (even with overseas shipping charges included!!).

If you know someone in UK, have the products sent to them and see if they'll mail them to you. This is what I did to save even more money and is what I'd do again too

.

I got mine from the website I mentioned. I got the smoothing masque though from a hair shop in Palmers Green, London. I bought 2 tubs of it being it was so much cheaper than the US plus the hairdresser raved about it over the macquintense.

I heard lookfantastic.com is a very good site to get them cheap. It's a Canadian site. Now I've never ordered from them but when I'm ready to order this is where I will go.

Yeah, I've been the one suggesting www.lookfantastic.com on this Board.

It's a British site, though, not Canadian. But it carries a lot of Kerastase products and I checked with BRH, who said the prices are good. Kerastase Products Unfortunately, I have to dedicate my funds to other things at the mo ... so hair products (including my beloved Masquintense!), for now, are a lower priority.

Thanks I knew it wasn't a US site but I guess I just assume it was Canadian. The overseas sites are usually cheaper.

Thanks for all the recs of different good sites to chose from. I like having so many options.

MissB, I think that's where I ordered mine from.

Sorry MissB!! I just realized that it was the Hairshop UK that BRH was talking about that I ordered mine from!! I think it was less expensive there than at that hairloss.com site.

MissB · Oct 10, 2003

Thanks Lindy and BRH! The prices are pretty good and they have Bumble and Bumble and Phytologie also. Yeah!!!!

I just got my products in the mail today! I'm going to wash my hair tomorrow and I'll give my review!

I was so excited when I saw the packages outside my apartment...I start singing I'm sure my neighbors were thinking

brownrelaxedhair · Oct 10, 2003

Ms Kenesha, Let me know what you think of the products.

Hi BRH,

No, I didn't mean that you had recommended the site to me. What I meant is that in a PM when I asked you about the prices on the website, you said they were good.

brownrelaxedhair · Oct 10, 2003

oh okay. Understood!

Allandra · Oct 11, 2003

I look forward to reading your review.

Okay, I bought the Kerastase Bain 3 Shampoo and Masquintense for thick very dry hair and the Nutri-liss Blowdrying cream.

So, I do my simplest wash ever solely using the Bain 3 shampoo, then conditioning with the mask for 45 min. w/o dryer and then I apply the Nutri-liss and sit under the dryer for my pre-dry. I then blow dry my hair on warm with my paddle brush. I then add my new Phyto 9 and curl with my ceramic curling iron on 9 (out of 1-27).
My hair came out very smooth, soft, and bouncy! I love my new products, now if only my pockets weren't so broke because of my purchases!!!

That blow dry cream sounds goooooooooood. I wonder if L'Oreal USA has something similar.

Glad you liked it Ms. K. Can you believe that I have an unopened jar of the Keratase Masquintense. It smells so perfumey that I haven't been able to bring myself to use it.

The blow-dry cream is good esp. since lately I've been blow-drying my hair once a week I want something that protects and softens and this does the trick! Also directions say to use 4-8 pumps (of course I used 8) I sectioned my hair in fourths and used two pumps on each section. I was able to comb through with my seamless small tooth comb with no problem!

I cannot believe it, you better use that Masquintense the perfumey smell will wash out!

Supergirl · Oct 12, 2003

Okay,

I'll put it on the schedule

It definitely has a very stong perfumey smell to it!! It's a good smell, but kind of overpowering. It leaves a nice, lasting scent in your hair, too.

Miss Kenesha,

I am glad that you enjoyed the products!
