I think I've seen it at Target--at least around Charlotte. Maybe Ulta, Drugstore.com, folica.com? I don't know how good of a placeFragrancenet.comis, but you can check their BBB rating. For many of these places, you might have to wait for a sale/coupon, but they do come along.

Doesn't Sephora carry it? Friends and Family is going on for a few more days, so you could get 20% off.

I've always heard this line is good - can I ask what products you use/like best in the line?

pollyjean23 · Marc Jacobs

I always have to look it up when I'm trying to figure out whether I'm talking about Karastase or Kinerase! Thank goodness the product packaging features very different colors from each other.

fairywings · Dooney & Bourke

Nope, Sephora and Ulta don't carry it. I guess I will just buy it of of their website direct. Gossipgirl- I will review what I buy! I've never used it before, but I plan on trying a variety of things and I will let you know.

Kerastase is most "famous" for its conditioners. I've found it to be only okay for my hair, but everyone is different of course.

I can't resist sharing this plug for my long-time favorite conditioner, which is L'Oreal Professional Intense Repair. It's the absolute best. Whenever I really damage my hair with color or too much heat styling, it gets me back on track. And it smells yummy. And it's a little cheaper than kerastase, too.

I used it a few years ago. The only product I really liked was the Bain Satin shampoo and Lait Vital conditioner. Overall, I found their products very overhyped and disappointing.

I don't know if you've tried it, but I LOVE Moroccanoil Shampoo and Conditioner (the moisturizing variety). It makes my hair soo soft, and it smells really nice.

gossipgirl · Dooney & Bourke

Ok - now I wanna track down Moraccan Oil and the Loreal product (I've heard good things about Loreal hair products too)

fairywings · Dooney & Bourke

I actually sell the Moroccan Oil products in my boutique and I love and swear by them. The oil is amazing and I can't imagine blow drying without it. ( But as far as the shampoo goes, I am never content with beauty products...a true junkie never is :- )

What exactly is Moroccan oil? I've heard about it but I'm not really sure what it is or what it's supposed to do. Is it like Argan oil?

fairywings · Dooney & Bourke

Moroccan Oil is Argan Oil! It's great to use on your hair and as a body oil. It works as a heat protectant, so you want to put it in damp hair before you blow dry or process. The brand Moroccan Oil makes the pure oil, shampoo, conditioner, two different types of deep condioning masks, a hydrating styling cream, a cream for curly hair, and a styling spray. I like the pure oil and the deep conditioning masks the best because they smell fab and make my hair shiny and soft. They are sulfate and paraben free.

Boots · Gucci

Thanks! Over the weekend I had ordered a small bottle from Sephora of the Argan oil for my dry winter skin and was thinking of trying it on my hair too. I'll have to ask my stylist if her salon carries the Moraccan Oil products.

Boots: just a tip - I've found that Moroccanoil products are cheaper on amazon (if buying from amazon and not some independent seller) than they are at salons.

Boots · Gucci

Thanks for the tip. I'm liking the argan oil I got from Sephora so far. Might have to add the moroccan oil to my Amazon list.

hi everyone! its been a while...

www.kerastase-usa.com is the only authorized online retailer of Kerastase. I would recommend signing up for their website as they send out multiple coupons and have little perks (like samples- which the salons do not get).
