Kérastase's Masque Hydra-Glaze is an intensive mask from the Gloss Absolu line formulated to transform thick, frizzy, and unmanageable hair into shiny, disciplined locks. Designed for normal to thick hair with a tendency to frizz that seeks deep nourishment without weighing it down.
What it is
This professional mask combines intensive treatment and frizz control in one product. The rich, creamy texture penetrates deep into the hair fiber, repairing damaged cuticles and sealing the surface for a long-lasting smooth effect. Unlike traditional masks, it doesn't weigh hair down but adds body and natural movement.
Who it's for
Formulated for normal to thick hair with a tendency to frizz, especially if it's dry, rough, or difficult to comb. Also ideal for curly, wavy, color-treated, or chemically processed hair that needs intensive nourishment without losing volume. Perfect for those looking for a weekly treatment that extends styling results.
Key benefits
Guarantees up to 4 days of frizz control even in 80% humidity. Reduces frizz by 82% and provides intense shine thanks to the combined action of hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, and rosehip oil. The nourishing formula repairs damaged fiber, facilitates detangling, and reduces drying time by up to 50%. Hair is silky, soft, and disciplined without a greasy effect.
Active ingredients
The formula is based on three key active ingredients: hyaluronic acid for deep hydration that retains up to 1000 times its weight in water within the fiber, glycolic acid for gentle exfoliation of the cuticles and improved light reflectivity, rosehip oil rich in omega 3-6-9 for intense nourishment without weighing hair down. This combination repairs structural damage and creates a protective barrier against humidity.
How to use
Step 1: After shampooing, towel-dry hair to remove excess water. Hair should be damp, not wet.
Step 2: Apply a small amount of product to lengths and ends (variable amount: short hair 1 dollop, medium 1.5 dollops, long 2 dollops). Avoid roots to prevent weighing down.
Step 3: Distribute evenly with a wide-tooth comb to ensure homogeneous coverage.
Step 4: Leave on for 3-5 minutes. For a more intense treatment, you can extend up to 10 minutes.
Step 5: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until the product is completely removed.
Recommended frequency: 1-2 times a week as a conditioner substitute. On intermediate days, use a light conditioner. For optimal results, combine with Bain Crème shampoo and Frizz-Glaze cream.
Expected result
After the first application, you will notice visibly softer, silkier, and easier-to-comb hair. Hair will be disciplined, shiny, and protected from humidity for several days. Tangles will loosen easily, and drying times will be significantly reduced. With constant use, the hair fiber progressively repairs, frizz decreases, and shine increases without compromising natural volume and movement.
