Overview

Lactic acid, an AHA, paired with centella asiatica works on porous, colored strands in Kerastase Chroma Absolu Shampoo Riche, cleansing while it hydrates. The rich formula targets fading, frizz and weak spots in medium to thick hair.

Kerastase builds this as the first step of a color routine with its Chroma Filler mask and Chroma Gloss, so it does the most work as part of that set. Fine hair may find a rich formula heavy, since the brand pitches it at medium to thick hair.

Who it's for

Medium to thick colored hair that has turned porous, frizzy or dull. People with fine hair should look for a lighter wash.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Sulfate and silicone free
  • Reduces frizz and porosity
  • Protects color from fading
  • Rich hydration for thick hair
Cons
  • Too rich for fine hair
  • Full routine needs separate mask and gloss

Performance notes

Lactic acid helps reduce porosity, so the hair surface holds color and reflects light better. Centella asiatica reinforces weak hair. The double wash puts the second, conditioning pass on the lengths and ends.
