KÉRASTASE INVENTED
LUXURY HAIRCARE IN 1964

Before Kérastase, hair care was purely about hygiene.
We changed it. We made it about care, about women and their desires.

The Launch Of Kérastase

Our care movement began in the legendary salons of Paris and is based on professional knowledge and scientific expertise. That is how we introduced the first professional comprehensive haircare products including the first bain for the hair and the first care for scalp.

Since the beginning, Kérastase has been at the forefront of developing hairdresser empathy and knowledge as well as tech tools to enhance hair and scalp assessment, with several generations of diagnostic cameras available for use in the salon.

Discover how hair diagnosis is still part of Kérastase more than ever and how we use the latest innovation to better care for the hair.

From Hygiene To Care

Before Kérastase, hair care was purely about hygiene and treating the hair. We changed that. We adopted a care-first philosophy that goes beyond our products, caring for all scalps and all hair types.

In 1973, we launched bain divalent, targeting oily roots and sensitized lengths then, in 1979, our first care mask.

A Skincare-Inspired Approach

We base our approach on a comprehensive care for all hair types, scalps and situations thanks to the power of skin-care inspired nutrients.

In 1984, we launched the iconic Nutritive range followed by other ranges such as Spécifique and Solaire. In 1989, we launched our first hair care serum for dry lengths.
