This week is “favorite products” week. In the name of styling products, Kerastase Oleo Relax Anti-Frizz Serum is numero uno for me!
Kerastase is one of those brands wherein you don’t mind spending more because you know the results you will get from using their products will be more than satisfactory. It’s one of those high-end brands which doesn’t disappoint you why they charge higher. In Economics, products like these don’t adopt “price differentiation” and compete in terms of prices. Kerastase adopts a quality-related differentiation. Their prices are higher than the normal hair care brand, but they offer a “premium” with Recherche Avancee ( high technology based research straight from their labs in Paris ) for their hair care products.
Anyway, for those with frizzy hair, don’t you just hate it? I know, I do! I’ve had my hair rebonded last year, and I just loved the sleek look. But as if wore off, I felt my hair bloating again ( Haha! ), so I had to reach more for an anti-frizz product.
The Kerastase Oleo Relax Serum can last you a long time because a pump of product is all you need. Its consistency is like a light oil, and when applied to your slightly damp hair ( 75%dry? Hehe ), will promise you a sleek, no -frizz hair the moment your hair dries. The scent is another story for Oleo Relax. For me, among the Kerastase products, Oleo Relax’s scent is the best. It’s very feminine, and sexy at the same time. Some people compare it with Elizabeth Arden’s flowers. I’ve also been told that the scent of this serum just makes guys gaga over you. ( Hahaha! Well? )
The Oleo Relax Serum, when paired with the Oleo Relax Masque, will bring great results, but if you’re just after a hair styling product, the serum will be perfect for you. For those with frizzy hair, it will help tame your hair and bring it down a little without making it look limp, greasy, and lifeless - the product is very light. If your hair is rebonded, relaxed, and straightened, it will definitely keep your straightened hair in its best shape - sleek and smooth. For those who had their hair permed, this is also great. Sometimes, curls tend to frizz too, and look disastrous when not taken cared of, or simply, if the weather hates you. I’ve recommended this to my friends who have normal hair, rebonded hair, and permed hair, and they all love it! I think I can be spokesperson for Kerastase one day ( Just kidding! ), but really, this is one product that you shouldn’t be afraid to splurge for. Definitely a keeper!
P.S. for really impossible-to-manage overly thick, frizzy hair, a thicker version of the serum is the Oleo Relax Elixir. It’s for those with mega to the nth power frizzy hair. At least, everything’s got a solution!
Tata for now!

I’ve been noticing Kerastase products more lately… My hair seems to be getting a bit more dry, and I’m debating whether I should splurge on some of these very expensive products… Perhaps I’ll buy them from someplace where I know I can return them if I don’t like them enough. Hm…
Marcy, my advise for you is that try their masques first It’s the best product of Kerastase so far that guarantees great effects. Masquintense, I think, would be great for you ( tsk tsk this is what I get from interning for Kerastase during my college days!)
Hi Juliet, I like your blog!
At what salons can I buy these Kerastase products? Thanks!
Hey Math, where are you from?
They’re always available @ high end salons, but if you would tell me where you’re coming from, I might be of help to be more specific about it 
It’s also sold online! 
Juliet, I live in Makati. I know there are many salons that sell here but would like to know specifically where so I can just go in & buy. Thanks! :>
Hi math, Try Salon ESA @ 6750. They also have them in other high end salons like Emphasis
how much is ‘Kerastase Oleo Relax Anti-Frizz Serum’?
I think around 20+ dollars
i like the serum, definitely. i’m trying the masque now. i’m not sure if it’s working though. the stylist told me i have to use it once a week. is that true? or should it be used more often? there’s another relaxant that’s really effective. i think it’s by l’oreal. both salon de manila and frank provost used it on me when i went there. cheaper than hair rebonding or relaxation and indeed very effective. i was hoping to get the same results from kerastase masque but i haven’t seen it just yet…
