Is this shampoo for hair loss?

No. Genesis targets breakage, not hormonal or medical hair loss. It strengthens strands so they snap less, which can make hair look fuller over time.

Can I use it on color-treated hair?

Yes. It is gentle enough for color-treated and chemically processed hair, and it helps with the dryness those processes cause.

How does it compare with the Genesis shampoo for fine hair?

This Nutri-Fortifiant version is the more moisturizing one, aimed at dry and brittle hair. The lighter Genesis option suits normal to oily scalps.

Do I need the Genesis serum too?

Not required, but the leave-in serum adds heat protection and targets ends between washes. The shampoo alone handles cleansing and conditioning.

How often should I use it?

As often as you normally wash, typically two to three times a week. Massage into wet scalp, rinse, and follow with conditioner or mask on the lengths.

Our take on the Kerastase Genesis Bain Nutri-Fortifiant Shampoo 8.5 oz

Kérastase Genesis Bain Nutri-Fortifiant is a strengthening shampoo for weak, breakage-prone hair, part of the Genesis line built around reducing fall due to breakage. It cleanses with gentle surfactants while adding moisture, so hair feels softer and more resilient rather than stripped. It suits dry, fine or over-processed hair that snaps easily. Against drugstore strengthening shampoos it is more concentrated and more conditioning, but it costs more and the sulfate-free-style cleanse won't satisfy everyone who wants a big lather.
