Just like skin, hair ages too. Yep, it’s not just fine lines that show up over time. Hair can start to feel drier, look duller, lose its bounce and become harder to manage. The good news? We have a solution.

The Chronologiste range from Kérastase is designed to target the five signs of hair ageing, dryness, dullness, frizz, thinning and loss of volume. And the best part? One of the hero products works while you sleep, meaning you wake up with hair that already looks better than it did the night before.

Think of Chronologiste As Skincare For Your Hair. It works deeply on both the scalp and the hair fibre, helping restore hydration, strength and softness from root to tip. When the scalp is balanced and the hair fibre is nourished, hair simply behaves better! It’s smoother, shinier and more resilient.

The Science Behind Ageing Hair and How Chronologiste Works

Healthy hair needs two things, a balanced scalp and hydrated hair fibres. Just like our skin, hair undergoes a complex ageing process. Over time, natural oils decrease, the hair structure weakens, and internal processes, like DNA instability, stem cell exhaustion, chronic micro-inflammation, and microbiome changes, start to take their toll. These “invisible root causes” show up as symptoms in your hair such as dryness, dullness, frizz, thinning, and loss of volume. That’s when hair stops feeling as soft, shiny and full as it once did.

 

Kérastase Chronologiste targets these visible signs at their biological origins with a potent blend of ingredients.

Hyaluronic Acid

The ultimate hydration magnet. It draws in moisture like crazy, up to 1,000 times its weight, plumping hair from root to tip. It treats dryness both in the hair and scalp and also boosts volume, smooths frizz, and makes hair soft, shiny, and resilient.

Abyssine

From the volcanic depths of the Pacific, Abyssine soothes the scalp and fortifies hair. Strengthens, fights breakage, and shields hair from stress and environmental damage. Think stronger, healthier, more vibrant hair.

Vitamin E

The antioxidant MVP. Protects hair from pollution, heat styling, and UV damage, keeping hair shiny, soft, and looking its best.

Pro-Xylane™

This is  a patented anti-ageing molecule for both skin and hair. It boosts the synthesis of Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) which are naturally occurring molecules in your hair and skin that help hold onto moisture and keep everything feeling hydrated. Think of GAGs as moisture magnets for your hair and skin. In your hair this reinforces the hair shaft for thicker fuller hair. In your scalp it revitalises and hydrates the scalp for long term healthy hair growth.

Ochrophyta Algae

Hydration and smoothness in one. The active compounds in the algae bind with your hair proteins to moisturise and help prevent split ends. Nourishes fibres, restores bounce, and leaves hair soft, full of life, and effortlessly manageable.

 

Together, these ingredients help hair recover from the inside out, so it’s not just temporarily smooth, it’s stronger, softer, and more vibrant over time.

 

What Results Can You Expect on Ageing Hair?

Before using Chronologiste, ageing hair can often feel dry and rough through the lengths. It can be frizzy and harder to manage, dull with less shine and lacking volume and bounce. After consistent use, the transformation is noticeable. Hair feels silkier when you run your hands through it, frizz is smoother, shine comes back and hair feels lighter, softer and more voluminous.

It’s that moment where you catch your reflection and think, “Wait… why does my hair look so good today?”

Think of it as a night cream for your hair. You apply it before bed, and it works through the night to help smooth frizz, hydrate the hair fibre and improve softness by morning. You don’t rinse it out, and the gorgeous scent lingers in your hair all day. Honestly, waking up to better hair without doing anything extra? We’re sold.
