Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo Review

By Arpita Sahu

These days, hardly there’s anyone who would not have a problem with hair fall.  Well, blame the lifestyle or the environment, all of us do suffer from this problem and we just keep looking for hair fall treatment products. And one of these days, when I paid a visit to a salon for a hair treatment sitting, she suggested trying the Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo for thinning hair. Well, I already had thin hair and my hairline has started to recede (or I’m imagining that).  I was more than eager to try any product that claims to solve my hair fall and hair thinning problem.

My Take on Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo:

I have fine straight hair which gets limp when oily. With this kind of hair loss, at times, I feel scared I would turn bald by the time I turn 30. I took some advice from my cousin who is in the US and started using this. She said compared to SP, it really worked for her since her hair had gone very rough after being exposed to the air and water of Pennsylvania and she was having a serious hair fall problem. So, I had to try it and now, I have used it for more than 3 months.

I can feel the hair loss has reduced because I do not see those many hair clogging the drain anymore. But at the same time, it is not significant enough to be noticed and yes, I barely see any hair growth, per se on my crown(where I had lost a lot of hair off late).  It still gives a very nice feel to the hair and one tends to go back to this product again and again, I am at my third bottle now. I just wish it was easily accessible online or in direct retail stores and the price really makes a hole in my pocket. It is advised to be used with Densitive GL and Aminexil Force R, but the later is so expensive that I do not think I can start using it in the near future. Nevertheless, Bain Stimuliste Shampoo is here to stay with me for few months for sure.

Pros of Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo:

  • It does have a nice refreshing smell.
  • Keeps the scalp clean and healthy.
  • Tones fine hair and improves texture, not sure about adding body to it.
  • Lathers very well.
  • Imparts shine to the hair.
  • Hair feels light after the wash.

Cons of Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo:

  • Hair does not get fuller as claimed by the brand.
  • Definitely expensive.
  • Available in only high-end salons which provide Kerastase treatment.
  • Does not keep the scalp dry for more than 2 days (it may vary from person to person and I have an oily scalp).

Would I Repurchase Kerastase Specifique Bain Stimuliste GL Shampoo?

Yes, I already have repurchased it thrice 😉
