How To Care for (Faux) Blonde Hair

Blonde hair is more than a look. It is a statement. Being a blonde bombshell is exhilarating. But bleaching the hair leaves it vulnerable to dryness. Colour fades and loses its unique tone. Meet Kérastase Blond Absolu, the ultra-violet healing hair care that preserves the bright look and bold spirit of the modern blonde.

Going blonde is exhilarating. But stripping the hair leaves it naked and vulnerable. Kérastase Blond Absolu provides healing care for hair that is 97% stronger and 92% more hydrated, with instant colour neutralising for 8x more luminous blonde.

Why go blonde?

Blonde is pure and vulnerable, yet still bold and daring, irresistible. Blonde is everything and nothing, all at once. Oh, and have you heard blondes have more fun? What’s not fun is the drying and devitalising effect bleaching can have on the hair. Leading to colour fading and also yellow, brassy tones popping up. But those are no longer concerns…

Infinite possibilites…

Blonde is not one look. It is unlimited, an infinite spectrum. From ice white, to buttery blonde, to sun-bathed locks and brightened “bronde”. There’s a different blonde for every woman, for every hair type, for every season, every mood.

…for those who dare.

No one understands blonding better than the women who have dared to do it, and no one understands care better than Kérastase. Which is why they brought together a collective of nine independent women who do blonde in totally different ways. Their concerns, their deepest blonde desires inspired them to create the ultimate range for blonde care.

Blondes demand the best.

They found that every faux-blonde has her own feelings and philosophies about the colour and how it sparks her soul. One thing they all have in common? None of them want to choose between gorgeous blonde and healthy, opulent hair. They want it all. And they want it fresh—no fading or veering into brassy territory.

All of the fun, none of risk.

It’s that demand for excellence and individuality that inspired them to create Blond Absolu, the ultimate care for faux blonde hair. They’ve revolutionised blonding care with six products for you to combine in customised rituals for bathing, treating and also texturising your hair. The fibres will become deeply healed and restored by hyaluronic acid alongside edelweiss sauvage. Ultra-violet neutralisers tone down brassiness and also illuminate your desired blonde. Hair will be silky, with the long-lasting feeling of “virgin” fibres.
