KÉRASTASE’S PRESCRIPTION FOR SMOOTHNESS
Kérastase offers a range of targeted solutions to combat frizz and restore smoothness, no matter your hair type. Here are some key recommendations:
UNDERSTANDING THE FRIZZ FACTOR
Frizz occurs when the outer layer of your hair cuticle (the protective shingle-like layer) is raised, allowing moisture to penetrate and swell the hair shaft. This uneven swelling leads to strands that stray from the smooth, uniform texture, creating the characteristic "frizzy" appearance. Several factors contribute to this:
- Humidity: Moisture in the air is a major culprit, as it readily enters the hair shaft, causing it to swell and frizz.
- Dryness: Paradoxically, dry hair is also prone to frizz. When hair lacks moisture, the cuticle becomes rough and raised, seeking moisture from the environment.
- Damage: Chemical treatments, heat styling, and even rough towel drying can damage the cuticle, making it more susceptible to frizz.
- Hair type: Curly and coarse hair types are naturally more prone to frizz due to their shape and texture.

BEYOND PRODUCTS: LIFESTYLE FOR FRIZZ CONTROL
While using the right products is crucial, incorporating these lifestyle changes can significantly enhance your frizz-fighting efforts. Here are some tips on how to avoid frizz:
GENTLE DRYING
Gently squeeze out excess water and use a microfiber towel to absorb remaining moisture.
COOL WATER RINSE
Finish your shower with a cool water rinse to help seal the cuticle and minimise frizz.
SILK OR SATIN PILOWCASES
These fabrics create less friction than cotton, helping to prevent frizz and breakage while you sleep.
REGULAR TRIMS
Regular trims help to remove split ends, which can contribute to frizz.
