Masque Force Architecte and Chroma Riche – Alternating is key!

Standard

I had another post a little while back on Kérastase’s ‘Chroma Riche’ hair  masqueIMG_1718 but I felt that I neglected to mention my other trusted friend, also from Kérastase‘Masque Force Architecte’. Kérastase’s Chroma Riche is aimed to protect and nourish coloured hair but the Masque Force Architecte  is aimed to combat fly away hair by replenishing hair fibres so that it feels and looks healthier and bouncier.

Alternate, alternate, alternate!

In my case, I alternate between the two Kérastase hair products – the fushia pink chroma riche masque and the force architecte masque as I suffer with both hair conditions that both hair products solve – fine fly away and coloured hair. I find that when I stick to the same masque for a long period of time that my hair becomes lifeless and dull. I discovered over time that when I changed it up a bit and used the chroma riche one week and then the force architecte the next week that my hair was much more healthier. I mentioned in my IMG_1672other post on Chroma Riche that it solved my  green hair issue which it absolutely did. But as my hair is fine, thin and tends to get fly away from time to time, I found that overusing the same hair products was proving too much for my hair to handle. Now I don’t know the science behind this or the reasons why my hair reacts this way when I overuse these products but over time you discover what works best for you and for me – alternating is key!

I also mentioned in my past blog post that when applying a masque to your hair, it is always good to gently towel dry the hair before hand so that you can really massage the masque into your hair and that the masque itself is not just sitting on your hair rather than penetrating the hair follicles. I find this tip to be truly excellent for both hair products and would highly recommend you to do this.

So for those of you who have fine, coloured hair which is brittle and also has split ends then I would HIGHLY recommend alternating between these two Kérastase hair products. They are a little pricey as they are luxury products and a lot of research and development goes into making these products so really you are paying for the science behind it all – but if you can afford these hair products and want beautiful and truly healthy hair then Kérastase is the way to go.

If you have any tips that you would like to share on how to  maintain healthy hair then please share your thoughts.

Happy Hair People!

Au Revoir,
