Stylist Quote
When working with dense hair (especially curly hair), I recommend sectioning the hair in 1-2” sections and applying the shampoo directly onto the scalp. Massage the scalp and work the shampoo down the hair strand. This gentle approach will help prep the hair for easier detangling.

PDP Section FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo formula contain Sulfates, Parabens, or Mineral-Oil?
The formula in Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo is Sulfate-free, Paraben-free, and Mineral-Oil free. The formula gently cleanses scalp and hair without stripping the hair of natural oils.
How often should I use Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo?
This creamy, gently formulated shampoo can be used every day to remove all impurities and buildup*. We recommend use with other Curl Manifesto hair products for increased hydration, definition, and strength.
What is the best way to apply Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo?
Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo can be used daily (or as often as needed). Apply the shampoo to the scalp first, then coat lengths from tops to ends. Avoid rubbing and lathering from left to right, instead, apply in a downwards motion. Rinse with water following a downward direction to emphasize the curl pattern.
What curl types is Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo best for?
Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo cleanses all curl types and coils. Specifically, for curly hair (types 2A-3C, loose waves to soft curls), very curly hair (types 3A-3C, tighter curls to corkscrew curls), or coily hair types (types 4A-4C, tightly coiled to z-angled coils).
What is the fragrance in Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo?
Floral Manifesto is a warm and elegant composition born from the petals of glowing tuberoses. The fresh notes of Frangipani flowers and White Musk evoke feelings of bliss and serenity. They harmonize with the sweet richness of honey creating a warm, daring fragrance with unique character.
Should I use Curl Manifesto Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo or Discipline Bain Fluidealiste Shampoo?
While both shampoos are formulated Sulfate-free, Bain Hydration Douceur Shampoo and the entire Curl Manifesto range of hair products work to preserve and enhance the curls’ and coils’ natural shape. The Curl Manifesto hair care nourishes curly hair to leave soft and bouncy curls. Bain Fluidealiste and the Discipline hair products work to reduce natural volume and frizz, leaving supple, smooth hair.

Makes hair really soft but the also relaxes my cur
Chrissy Marie

I really do like this new shampoo because it makes my hair so soft; but maybe too soft because it relaxes my natural curls. I do receive a lot of compliments on my hair but I don't use this shampoo everyday because sometimes I want my hair curly. I'm fortunate to have longer hair with natural spiral curls.

Not as nourishing as Discipline Oleo-Curl Creme
SJH997
4 years ago
I bought this cream to replace Discipline Oleo-Curl Creme which seems discontinued.
I bought this cream bc I couldn't find the Discipline Oleo-Curl Creme anywhere online. While I saw more curl definition, It didn't seem to control the volume. My hair was bigger/puffier than when I used other Kerastase curl creams. Also the smell reminds me of the coconut car freshener which I am not a big fan of. I miss Discipline Oleo-Curl Creme!

I started using this daily when I do my curly hair routine and it made a world of difference. Literally no frizz, and soft to the touch. While don’t always layer other Kérastase products on top of this, this is a base is a must!! Amazing product!

I really like this shampoo! It cleanses my hair gently without making it feel dry. My curls feel softer, more hydrated, and easier to manage after washing. It also has a beautiful scent and leaves my hair feeling fresh and healthy. I’m very happy with it and would definitely purchase it again.

Q: Can this work for course wavy hair?
Millie2323 months ago
1 AnswerAnswer this Question
- A: Yes, the Kérastase Curl Manifesto Crème De Jour Fondamentale Hair Cream works exceptionally well on coarse, wavy hair.
Coarse, wavy hair is notoriously difficult because it is thick in diameter, naturally dry, and prone to losing its shape—often poofing out into frizz instead of clumping into smooth waves. This leave-in cream is highly recommended for your hair type because of how it balances moisture and lightweight control.

Q: Is this product good for fine hair with waves? I have fine hair that needs its waves back and I can't tell if this product is for that. If not, which product am I able to use for my hair?
Papasmurf6 months ago
1 AnswerAnswer this Question
- A: Thank you for your question! We want to help you find the best match for your waves.
The Curl Manifesto Bain Hydratation Douceur Shampoo is highly hydrating, but for very fine hair, it can sometimes be a bit heavy if you're looking for maximum volume. We recommend using a small amount focused on the roots to maintain that lightweight "bounce-back" for your waves.
If you find it too rich, you might also enjoy our Volumifique range, which is specifically designed to provide lift for fine hair. We suggest starting with the Curl Manifesto in a small dose to see how your hair responds!

Q: Hi I went through the ingredient list and wasn't able to understand if the shampoo contains protein or not. I have low porosity hair and the protein overload really makes my hair more frizzy and brittle
Anonymousa year ago
1 AnswerAnswer this Question
- A: That's an excellent and very important question, especially when dealing with low porosity hair and protein sensitivity! Based on the ingredient lists for the Kérastase Curl Manifesto Bain Hydratation Douceur Shampoo, it does not explicitly contain protein ingredients such as hydrolyzed wheat protein, keratin, or other common protein derivatives that typically cause protein overload.
