From the Kerastase entire line, this is my latest and last one to try. I've been using it for the past 3 weeks, and cannot remember why I waited so long to try! I always apply shampoo twice, a little quicker wash at first, to clean the worst, and a more careful one secondly, leaving it on while I wash my face or scrub my body. I think it's good to do like this ! Such a good product, why take it off so fast and not enjoy the benefits of it in my hair for 2 or 3 minutes more?? Another thing: yes, I agree that compared to regular shampoos, it costs much more. But it's SO concentrate! I have hair at shoulder level, and with Kerastase shampoos (all of them, really) a walnut size for me is enough, makes a LOT of foam and cleans very well. Worthy every penny!

This was a really nice hydrating shampoo that not only left my hair very shiny and soft, but volumized as well. I do think that it's too expensive for what it's worth however...

The only negative aspect of this shampoo (and the also great Chroma Reflect Milk) is the price. It won't stop me from re-purchasing however because no other product line has given my fine, color-treated hair as much shine and body. I color my hair with shades of auburn and we all know its the first to fade. Using the Bain Miroir has helped my color last longer. I've been coloring my hair for many years and I thought I'd never be able to have shine again. These products have given my hair new life...love them.

huge dissapointment... I have tried oth versions 1 and 2, both have this amazing frangance. The lather on the No. 1 is non-existent. Yet both seem like very basic shampoos, yet after a couple of weeks my hair started looking drab (Shine enhacers??) and lifeless. I have long, baby fine, drysih hair (lots of it) and I am very picky about my hair care, I'd rather stick with Bain Volumactive or Bain Satin 2. Shame, the pink bottles looked so cool in my shower...

I am a product junkie...and this is one shampoo I continue to repurchase and will continue to do so.

My stylist recommended it highly and she was right...I can see the colors and hilights last longer with continued use, and my hair is shiny and healthy looking. It smells great and does not weigh my hair down at all.

I really like this shampoo! It is for color treated hair which I need, since I'm a darker shade than I used to be now. This line helps add shine and keep color. So far I'm happy with this!

While this made my hair soft , didn't do anything for color protection. Also i don't think it adds more shine and reflexion than any other similar stuff I've tried before.
I got it in 1 and for that price, I'm sticking with L'Óreal Vitamino Color.

Although I have chemically straightened and colourted hair, I've never been a fan of expensive salon shampoos until this one. I first bought this when I had long hair and it didn't work for me. But my long hair was much drier - I don't think this product delivers enough moisture for dry hair. But now with my shoulder-length hair (which is healthier and less dry), this is my new HG shampoo. I always used this with the Bain Miroir conditioner and the combination delivers on the promise of ultra shiny, silky hair. I've used this every day for 6 months now and I'm very pleased with it.

I love Kerastase but have never been a fan of the Reflection line in the pink bottles. This shampoo performed less than average... left my hair feeling more dry. The Kerastase Bain Satin 2 is by far the best shampoo I have ever used. I recommend trying the Bain Satin before deciding Kerastase isn't right for you. I was frustrated using the Bain Miroir shampoo (my first Kerastase product) and didn't see the hype about Kerastase. That's because this particular shampoo isn't good at all.

When I originally bought this and the conditioner, I hated it. It left my hair very greasy. I put it away for a while and went back to my old shampoo. However, I recently talked to my stylist about this, and he suggested that I just use the shampoo without the conditioner and then deep condition on a weekly basis. This has worked wonderfully for me. This shampoo without the conditioner leaves my hair silky and shiny and moisturized, plus it smells great!

I’ve always liked Kerastase shampoos (moreso than their conditioners – I don’t find them moisturising enough) and this one is no exception. I think Bain Satin 2 is more moisturising and the most moisturisng of any Kerastase shampoo (it’s my favourite Kerastase offering) but this one smells far nicer, lathers well and leaves my hair soft and silky. I’m sure that the shine it supposedly imparts builds over time, and I haven’t been using this long enough to notice but even if it doesn’t make my hair shinier I will be happy to continue to use it. It is expensive for a shampoo (AUD30.50) but well worth it for the results.

This has a wonderful smell and appears really concentrated so you only need to use a little. It imparts fantastic, amazing shine after only one shampoo--my hair looked so healthy! However, it made my hair really limp. I have lots of fine, highlighted hair, and I noticed it felt quite thin after using this shampoo, so I don't think I will use it very often.

Addicted to this shampoo and conditioner (Chroma Reflect.)!
Amazing results the first time I used it and have been using now for over a year.
It gives an amazingly light and airy feel to the hair...very smooth and silky results. I have fine and slightly wavy hair that gets frizzy when I blow dry...this stuff promotes fantastic results with a flat or curling iron.
The only shampoo I will use! My absolute favorite staple product of any hair, body, skincare or cosmetic. Definitely worth the price...a little goes a long way....leave the conditioner in your hair in the shower at least 3 minutes for best results....It also smells lovely, fruity and light!
Use this and you will love it! (I don't even color my hair anymore and still use it...it is fabulous!)

i bought this shampoo after reading the review on INSTYLE and having such a horrible experience w/ my old shampoo. wow - for something that i had initially no expectations on, i'm soooooo happy. and this is after only two days of use.

note: i bought this in conjuction with the chroma reflect conditioner (also $$$). the smell is quite pleasant, and since it's terribly expensive, i try to use only two dallops of the product for my shoulder-length hair. it's great stuff. i'm not sure how it works but it seems to soften my hair, moisturize it and coat it w/ some protectant sealent (or at least this is what it feels like.) the sad part is that i'm totally hooked on the stuff.

and yes, i do notice that my hair seems be shinier these days. and oh so soft!

Update: on my second bottle and guess what? i know have an itchy scalp. you know why? this shampoo is entirely too mild. argh... i've NEVER EVER had an itchy scalp in my whole life.

This shampoo did nothing to increase shine. My hair actually looked kinda dull and dried out. Fragrance was decent, however. I love the Oleo Relax and will stick with that from now on.

Why did I ever stop using Kerastase products? Oh, yes, they're awfully expensive and I tend to go through my shampoos very fast. I have loads of long, highlighted (blonde and chocolate), wavy, thin hair. My hairdresser says it's not damaged, so I believe her, but lately I've been feeling it getting dry (maybe cos of the harsh winter). This poo left my hair VERY soft and manageable, yet enhancing its natural wave. It's like my hair finally felt comfortable on my scalp and head if that makes any sense. I noticed MUCH less hair fallout and my hair was much easier to comb after using this. Considering the shine... well, my hair is usually quite shiny, and that didn't make it worse, but I'm hoping to get yet more shine with repeated use (will update in a month). However, I must add that the use of a good conditioner is a must, although I didn't buy the matching one, I plan on doing so, but any other won't endanger the effects of the poo, or so I think. I love love this! Oh, it also foams well, and to people sensitive to the scent, it smells a bit like green apples, but very discreet. UPDATE: Okay, I've been using this for almost 2 weeks now, and this shampoo really delivers! The more you use it, the better it gets, and the more you comb it the more the shine comes through. My hair is enormously shiny and soft, in fact it's a bit too shiny so I think of maybe using this only every 2nd time I'm washing my hair lol. I mostly like the fact that it doesn't kill my natural wave either. Lovely lovely poo!

I bought this after a rec from my stylist and the article in In Style. I can't really tell how this product is doing with my hair. It felt great upon application and I was convinced that I would see a difference. I personally think it looks quite dull and the ends look rough. I notice no shine. That being said, I have had at least five people I work with come up to me each day this week and tell me how great my hair looks and ask if I am doing something different, while I just don't see it.... Hmm... I'll have to update in a few weeks.

I have tried three Kerastase shampoos now and I would say that this one is my favorite for the shine it imparts. At first, my hair look kind of dry, but after brushing it, it began to reflect more light. Smells wonderful, as do all the Kerastase shampoos and while I enjoy using this, I don't know that I would buy again. Not bad, but hey for $30 I could get tons of my usual shampoo.
