Curl Manifesto - Bain Hydratation Douceur Shampoo

Give it a try!

BEST Shampoo for curly hair. I purchased for my brother and he got hooked. Kérastase does what it says.

Lose my hair, feeling clean and hydrated. My boyfriend always compliments the way my hair smells after using the shampoo. 

Pros and Cons

My hair (combo wavy & curly) felt amazingly soft and was less frizzy with this system. On that score, I would recommend it wholeheartedly. However, unfortunately, my scalp did not love the system as it triggered a psoriasis episode. I have sensitive skin so this may not happen for others.

Expensive NO GOOD RESULTS Very disappointing

Dry my curly hair Shyness Hair loss No results at all

Led to breakage

I wanted to love this shampoo and conditioner because it smells great, but I've been using it for about 2 months and it has resulted in super dry hair and a lot of breakage. For reference I have fine hair with type 3B curls. Unfortunately I can't even finish the bottle because I'm worried about my hair (disappointing because this stuff isn't cheap).

dried out & frizzed hair

Normally use the extensioniste & bain satin ranges but as I have curly long hair I thought this product would help define my curls better. Have been using for a few weeks & my hair texture now feels very dry, like straw, wake up morning after using & hair is a complete frizz & gets worse each day so that I have to wash & condition more often. So disappointed as complete opposite to results expected.

I am in love

I bought the kerastase curl manifesto shampoo and light weight conditioner. They smell heavenly and rich and my curls feel great and well hydrated! A small amount goes a long way and I've noticed my I can extend my hair wash day from every 3 days to every 5 days :) Definitely worth it!

Not for me

Did not like this at all. Made hair way too soft and has an overpowering smell

Disappointing results given the cost

I have virgin wavy hair that is trying very hard to become curly hair, so I was hopeful that this very overpriced shampoo would be the game changer. It definitely made my hair nice and soft, but as far as curl goes it literally did nothing to bring out more curl than what was already there. I returned this product and wouldn’t buy anything else from Kerastase personally.

My hair is indifferent on this

So, I've been using this and the conditioner for almost 2 months now and I'm overall mixed on it. On the positive side, my curls have noticeably been better. They're formed, soft, and there's been reduced frizzing. Where my issue with this and the container lies is I've noticed an increase is hair loss. Definitely not as bad as some pics from other users have posted, but there's been an increase of hair strands on my hands when running my hands through my hair. Additionally, my scalp is itchier. I recently switched back to the Living Proof PHD to try it back out and while my curls aren't great and there's frizz, my scalp isn't itchy and there's definitely an improvement on hair falling out if any. I used PHD for years, so I thought maybe my hair just needed to get used to this, but I haven't seen an improvement in the 2 months I've been using this. So, honestly, not sure if I'm going to finish the bottle which sucks bc of the price and I do have a lot left but it's not worth potentially losing hair. I hope it works for someone else through! I've been told it smells great!

Curl Savers

I have very long, fine 2C-3A hair, wavy/ curly texture. I received the sampler set as a birthday gift from Sephora and after the first use, I bought the full size Shampoo, Conditioner and Leave in and they have been a game changer for soft, frizz free curls. I use them with the Ouidad humidity control gel.

Excellent

This is an excellent shampoo. The best shampoo for curly hair. Thank you Kerastase
