Best product on the market
If you often blow-dry, straighten, or curl your hair and notice it getting damaged, then this is the spray you need. I've used this in my routine and it really is an "all-in-one" product that does more than just protect against heat. What I like: Heat protection: It protects up to 230°C, which feels safe when using a flat iron. The hair never feels "burnt" or dry afterwards. Detangles: It works as a fantastic leave-in product. Just a few sprays on damp hair make the brush glide through without resistance – perfect if you have hair that tangles easily. Anti-frizz: It keeps flyaways in place all day, even when it's humid outside. The hair becomes incredibly soft and gains a natural shine. The scent: The Genesis scent is addictive! It smells luxurious and fresh without being overpowering. What’s less good: The spray bottle: It's good, but you have to be careful not to spray too much in one spot. A light mist over the whole hair is enough. The price: It's a more expensive heat protectant, but the 150 ml bottle is concentrated and lasts for several months even if you style your hair often. Conclusion: A lifesaver for anyone who wants to keep their lengths healthy despite frequent styling. It provides protection, moisture, and shine all in one. One of my absolute favorites from Kérastase!3974 views - The post was made 4 weeksRating: 3 out of 5verified customer
Not for me!
I think this smells incredibly good but unfortunately I don't think it adds anything to my hair (thick/frizzy/curly).1231 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 1 monthRating: 5 out of 5
✨ My favorite step before blow-drying!
Kérastase Défense Thermique is a product I always want close at hand when I’m blow-drying or styling my hair. I truly believe that heat protection is one of the most important steps in a hair routine, especially when you use heat regularly. What I like most is that it feels light in the hair. It’s easy to distribute through the lengths without making my hair feel heavy or greasy. After applying, the hair feels softer and more manageable, which makes styling much easier. 🤍 I also think the hair gets a really nice feel after blow-drying. It feels smoother, softer, and gains a lovely shine. I really like when a heat protectant doesn’t just feel like a “must-do” step but actually makes the hair nicer to style. ✨ The scent is also very lovely and gives that luxurious Kérastase feeling that makes the whole hair routine a bit more special. 🥰 I usually apply it to towel-dried hair before blow-drying and think it’s a super easy step that quickly became a natural part of my routine. For me, it’s mainly the combination of heat protection, softness, and shine that makes this so good. It’s perfect when I want to style my hair but also be a bit gentler on the lengths. A really lovely styling product for you who use heat and want your hair to feel soft, shiny, and well cared for even after blow-drying and styling. 🤍🔥2095 views - The post was made 1 monthRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
nice product in wet hair
Works well after the shower, but don’t put on too much because then it easily feels greasy in the hair!1991 views - The post was made 3 monthsRating: 2 out of 5verified customer
Didn’t work for me!
I have medium thick, frizzy, and wavy hair. Used this along with heat treatment and it made my hair greasy quickly.2534 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 3 monthsHi Camilla 👋😊 Thank you for sharing your experience 💗 So sorry that this didn’t suit your hair as you wished. Hair type and amount of product can definitely affect how it feels, especially on wavy and frizzy hair. This contains nourishing ingredients that can be a bit heavy for some hair types, especially if you use a little too much product. We really appreciate you taking the time to write a review ✨1 likes

Very good
Kérastase Genesis Défense Thermique is absolutely amazing! It protects the hair from heat, makes it soft and light without weighing it down. I've received so many compliments on how shiny and healthy my hair looks since I started using it ✨ #lykoreview #lyko #kerastase3905 views - The post was made 7 monthsRating: 2 out of 5
Makes hair greasy
I really believed in this, but it smells like typical old lady scent, so citrus and old lady. If you use it in your hair after the shower, when the hair dries (either with a blow dryer or air drying), the hair will feel greasy and dirty. It gives no results at all. To not waste my money, I used it before the shower to then rinse it out. The hair became a bit easier to manage in the shower as it sort of detangled some knots, but I can't mention any other positive effect.3800 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 7 monthsHey Cora 👋✨ Thanks for your honest review, sorry that this didn't work for you ❤️ To avoid a greasy feeling with Kérastase Genesis Defense Thermique, it might be good to start with a small amount and apply it from the middle of the lengths to the ends, so you don't get too much at the roots 🥰

Smells like men's perfume
Has been sitting in the bathroom cabinet because it smelled like men's perfume. Hope they change the fragrance because the product is good otherwise, but no one wants to walk around smelling like an old man.5204 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko.

I understand that the scent is important, so it's really unfortunate if it doesn't suit you, especially since you seem to like the product otherwise ❤️✨1 likes

Unpleasant scent
The function of this product is super good, it gets 5 stars. However, the horrible scent brings the rating down to only 2 stars. It’s a sharp, chemical smell that reminds me of something sprayed in a port-a-potty to mask other odors. Yes, you hear that I am disappointed. Kérastase is otherwise one of my favorite brands and I have always found that the other products I have tried smell wonderfully delightful, even addictive. I especially love the scent of the Densifique products. Mmmm :-D!7394 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko.
