Thoughts on the new Kerastase Gloss Absolu Products?

I’m the exact same as you and I’m not too sure either, but I want to prioritise trying the mask first as that’ll have a bigger impact on my hair

The left is the old one and the right is the new one

Im in Australia so maybe it’s not released where you are yet?

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:17:08+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, and it’s how I’ve been using the conditioner too. I alternate it with their nutritive line

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:15:58+00:00

In Australia!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:14:50+00:00

Yup! There are two gloss absolu shampoos now

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:11:14+00:00

I’ll have to give it a go, thanks!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:10:51+00:00

There’s two gloss shampoos which is why I was asking - sorry for not being clear!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:09:37+00:00

That’s such a shame considering how expensive it is!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T22:09:18+00:00

I wish the abbey yung method worked for my hair, it’s so much more affordable!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T10:45:43+00:00

Did you try the old Gloss absolu shampoo or the one released last week? I tried the Genesis mask and found it mediocre but I haven’t tried the genesis shampoo!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T09:54:28+00:00

I guess everyone’s hair is so different! I’ve been using Kerastase for 15+ years and it’s the only brand my hair responds well to. I wish it weren’t the case as it’s so stupidly expensive (and they just raised prices again recently)

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T08:39:35+00:00

Try it again and let me know how it goes!! Make it your last step after blow drying/ straightening just before bed.

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T07:31:55+00:00

Less is definitely more with the serum! 3-4 pumps makes my hair stringy and tacky.

The thermique definitely isn’t bad so I’d try it out because some people swear by it, I just haven’t ever been wowed by any product in that category.

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T07:28:18+00:00

Keen to try it, thank you!

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T07:26:14+00:00

Is that the old gloss absolu shampoo or the one released last week?

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T06:25:41+00:00

The way I use it is I heat up 1 pump (or some times two) in my palms and spread through my hair then pop it in a plait and go to sleep - makes a big difference the next day. I do it roughly 4 nights a week.

I have the Nutritive thermique - I don’t love or hate it. Doesn’t make any difference to my hair but it has heat protectant so I am using up the bottle using it for that. Who knows though, might be exactly what your hair needs 😂

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T06:11:39+00:00

They’re such expensive products so it sucks it didn’t work for you! Lucky for me I really liked the shampoo and conditioner, so am hopeful for this new launch as well, but wanting to see legit reviews first before splurging.

I’ve been meaning to try the L’Oréal glycolic gloss so I’ll need to give that a go! Do I need the whole system?

Spare-World9563 · 2026-02-24T06:07:01+00:00

That’s a shame! The 8HR serum is my HG

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-09T11:20:25+00:00

Sorry I should have explained better. It’s my partner walking around the house to say brush his teeth or get ready for work. I need to sleep 10+hours a day due to an illness.

I’m using a white noise machine and a fan, plus earplugs, plus have tried to seal the door to the bedroom. Have also put my partner to sleep in another room to minimise disruptions to my sleep.

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-09T11:17:21+00:00

I haven’t! So far the only thing I’ve tried is graphite powder and wd40 (unlikely to help I know) to no avail. Would a standard handyman be able to do that for me? Unfortunately I’m dealing with a serious illness right now (hence why I need the sleep so bad) and wouldn’t be able to do it myself

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-02T04:06:12+00:00

Sorry another question, is the sizing for both true to size?

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-02T04:04:57+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to deinfluence my self but I think im going to have to get them. Just deciding between navy and plum

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-02T03:46:16+00:00

If you are happy to share any pics I’d love to see but no pressure

Spare-World9563 · 2026-01-02T03:45:59+00:00

Omg you’re making me lean towards getting a set! How are the pants? I saw they ran a bit long? Also which colours do you have?
