Kérastase Résistance

The full routine is Bain Force Architecte shampoo at $48 (RRP $64), Ciment Anti-Usure conditioner at $57.75 (RRP $77) and the Blow-Dry Primer at $57.75 (RRP $77). All three contain the Pro-Keratine Complex of protein and amino acids to help reinforce the fibre, ceramides for shine and elasticity, and resurrection plant sap to smooth and hydrate.

Soak your hair for a good minute before you shampoo, so a chestnut-sized amount of Bain Force Architecte lathers easily with less rubbing. Squeeze out as much water as you can, then apply Ciment Anti-Usure to the lengths and ends for 2 to 3 minutes and rinse. On towel-dried hair, comb through a walnut-sized amount of Blow-Dry Primer, a little less on fine or shoulder-length hair, and dry as usual. All three are gentle enough for daily use.

The Blow-Dry Primer protects up to 180°C and also helps cut down drying time. If you use hot tools set higher than that, see our heat protection range.

Résistance suits weakened, brittle hair that breaks easily and needs strength as well as softness. Première is our pick for hair that is over-processed from lightening or chemical services and feels stiff or dull, as it clears calcium build-up before repairing. See all products for damaged hair.
