Whilst the world may exclaim over your tousled waves or bouncy curls, ladies with these hair types know the flip side i.e. locks that are as dry as the Sahara. I’ve been searching high and low for a product that will hydrate my parched tresses, but no matter how many serums and conditioners I try, my hair refuses to be moisturized! Luckily, a sympathetic colleague dropped off a tube of Kérastase’s Nectar Thermique on my desk. Here is my review.

The treatment comes packaged in a squeezable tube, which dispenses just the right amount of product. The cream and orange colour scheme gives it a fresh, yet sophisticated look.

As instructed, I applied a small amount (roughly the size of two peas) throughout the mid-lengths and ends of my damp locks. Be careful not to use too much or else your hair will feel sticky and stiff. Although the product is white in colour, it turns invisible on application. The consistency is like a lotion but feels weightless on hair. The scent can be off-putting to some, as the fragrance is reminiscent to that of a sunscreen.

Once I combed the product through, I used a blow dryer to style my tresses. The result? Instantly softer hair! The leave-in treatment left my hair smoother, shinier and untangled… a state it hasn’t been in for over 3 months! Surprisingly, the product also helped diminish the frizz I had resigned myself to.

I’ve been using this baby consistently for the past 2 weeks and I’ve never been happier with my hair! Since it is a heat protectant as well, my mane has stayed healthy despite several run-ins with a flat iron. If you are looking to transform your dehydrated locks, then this is definitely the product for you!
