Finish the routine

Kérastase Résistance Bain Force Architecte is a strengthening repair shampoo for damaged, fragile hair prone to breakage. Powered by Vita-Ciment, it cleanses gently while reinforcing the hair fibre from within — so weakened strands break less and feel stronger, smoother and healthier.

Benefits
  • Less breakage — Vita-Ciment rebuilds the internal fibre to strengthen fragile hair.
  • Smoother, softer hair — improves manageability and slip.
  • Restored shine — leaves dull, tired hair looking healthier.
  • Gentle cleanse — washes all hair types without weighing them down.
How to use
  1. Apply to wet hair and massage through the scalp and lengths into a rich lather.
  2. Rinse, and repeat if needed.
  3. Follow with Ciment Anti-Usure conditioner and a Résistance mask, and use at every wash.
Who it's for

Why our stylists rate it
From the Partners Hair team
Kérastase Resistance Bain Force Architecte is a daily reconstructing shampoo for damaged hair at erosion levels 1–2 (mild to moderate damage). Part of the Kérastase Resistance range. Strengthens the hair fibre from within while cleansing.

Best for: weakened, brittle hair damaged by heat styling, chemical processing, or environmental stress; visibly damaged hair that breaks easily or shows split ends; daily-use cleansing in a reconstruction routine paired with Masque Force Architecte or Ciment Anti-Usure.
Less suited to: very severely damaged or over-processed hair (use Kérastase Resistance Thérapiste — Bain Thérapiste); hair primarily concerned with length retention and split ends (use Resistance Extentioniste — Bain Extentioniste); hair primarily concerned with dryness rather than damage (use Kérastase Nutritive — Bain Satin or Bain Magistral); colour-treated hair where colour care is the priority (use Chroma Absolu or Blond Absolu).

Key actives:
- Vita-Ciment® Complex — Kérastase's patented reconstruction technology, combining:
- Pro-Keratin — protein that mimics the function of keratin and rebuilds the hair fibre
- Ceramides — recreate the intercellular cement, strengthening the fibre from the inside
- Sève de Résurrection (Resurrection Plant Sap, Myrothamnus flabellifolia) — regenerative botanical extract well known for its resilience-restoring properties

Benefits:
- Rebuilds and strengthens damaged hair fibre from roots to ends
- Reduces breakage and helps prevent split ends
- Delivers visible smoothness, shine, and softness
- Forms a protective film that helps shield hair from future damage
- Awarded InStyle Magazine "Best Shampoo for Brittle Hair", Best Beauty Buys 2017

How to use: Apply a chestnut-sized amount to wet hair. Massage gently to emulsify through lengths and ends until lathered, then rinse thoroughly. For heavily damaged hair, repeat the application. Follow with Masque Force Architecte (weekly intensive treatment) or Ciment Anti-Usure (daily anti-breakage cream).

Format: 250ml shampoo. Also available in 500ml professional/salon size.
