Why Asian Stylists Recommend It
Salon color on Asian hair fades warm and dulls between visits; a color-care shampoo cleans gently to hold tone and gloss, which a general shampoo strips faster on hard-won color.

Why we recommend it
Chroma Absolu is Kérastase's color-care shampoo, made to protect the tone and shine of salon-colored hair. Reaching balayage, gloss, or fashion color on Asian hair takes real lifting, and that color fades warm and rough without care; this wash cleans gently so tone holds longer and colored hair stays smooth and glossy between appointments. It avoids the strip that speeds fading, suiting the diaspora client keeping an expensive color far from the salon that made it. Use it as your everyday wash when protecting color matters most, and pair it with the matching conditioner. It protects and smooths color rather than clarifying or repairing bleach damage.
