Gloss Absolu High-Shine Anti-Frizz Shampoo
A high-shine shampoo created for fine to medium hair prone to frizz that needs cleansing without losing softness and movement.
A strong shampoo for people who want smoother, shinier hair and anti-frizz support without a super-rich heavy feel.
People who have invested in the Kérastase Gloss Absolu system buy the shampoo because the line is designed as a system — starting with the shampoo gives the full routine a cleaner, more cohesive base to build on. The anti-frizz system starts at cleansing, not just at the styling step.
First step of wash day — apply to wet hair, massage scalp, rinse, then follow with the Gloss Absolu Conditioner before any leave-in products.
People with fine to medium hair who want their shampoo to actively contribute to the shine and frizz goal rather than simply cleanse and rinse. Also great for people who want the Kérastase Gloss Absolu experience from step one.
On very thick, coarse, or severely dry hair — the lighter surfactant system may not deliver enough cleansing power or the post-wash moisture that thick, porous hair needs. Those hair types are better suited for the Nutritive line.
If scalp feels dry or stripped after washing, the shampoo may be too frequent — reduce wash days or check if the formula is right for your scalp type. A scalp hydration serum like Genesis can follow each wash.
- The full Gloss Absolu system: conditioner + anti-frizz spray + glaze drops for a complete high-shine routine
- The Genesis Serum Fortifiant applied to the scalp after washing for a combined strength-and-gloss approach
- A weekly clarifying shampoo pass to reset any buildup from silicone-containing styling products in the system

How to Use

About This Product
The Kérastase Gloss Absolu High-Shine Anti-Frizz Shampoo is the cleansing step of the Gloss Absolu system — designed to provide effective scalp and hair cleansing while depositing anti-frizz and shine-supportive conditioning agents through the wash process. Unlike stripping clarifying shampoos, the Gloss Absolu Shampoo is formulated to clean without eliminating the natural oils and conditioning agents that contribute to hair shine and manageability. It creates the clean base on which the rest of the Gloss Absolu system — conditioner, spray, and glaze drops — then builds. Positioned for fine-to-medium hair specifically, it offers a lighter cleansing feel than denser, repair-focused shampoos like those in the Nutritive or Résistance lines.
