Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 24 reviews.
Love it! Makes such a difference to the end blow dry results. The consistency is lovely and the smell is amazing!!
I have fine frizzy hair. This is Kérastase Nutritive Nectar Thermique, and ONLY a hairdryer and padel brush. I usually only get this result after my GHD.
My hair is soft and virtually frizz free!
Best product ever for my dry wavy hair. Have tried other products and come back to this one each time. Transforms my hair from dry to smooth and silky. Just love it!
This is a must have. Perfect feed for nutrient lacking hair. Smells amazing too and protects my hair from heat damage. Been using it for nearly 10 years and haven’t looked back since.
I've been using this product for years and never found anything better for my hair. I love the results. Shiny and smooth. A wonderful product and goes a long way.
