L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Lipidum Shampoo & Masque Review, Price & Buy Online India
I have always had major hair woes primarily due to dryness and my wavy hair. My hair looks like a bird’s big nest unless I condition it well and use a ton of styling products and heat which damages it further. Nowadays, heat styling and hair coloring has become so common that frizz and dryness is a major issue. Recently I pre-lightened/ bleached my hair which has made it really dry and frizzy and my saviour has been the L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Lipidum Shampoo & Masque. If you have dry and damaged hair then you must read on.
The L’Oreal Absolut Repair Lipidum Range aims to reduce the signs of damaged hair caused by heat styling, hair coloring, sun damage etc. The use of Lipidium Complex, comprised of Protective Lipids, Phyto-Kertain, Ceramide and Lactic Acid, strengthens and protects the hair fibre. I have been using the L’Oreal Absolut Repair Shampoo & Mask for almost 2 months now and it has worked really well for me.
L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Lipidum Shampoo For Damaged Hair Review, Price & Buy Online India
Price: Rs 575 for 250ml
Can be bought online at Flipkart & Amazon India
This L’Oreal Professional Shampoo For Damaged hair comes in a pale gold plastic bottle with a flip open cap. It has a sweet fragrance which I like but find it a bit too strong for my sensitive nose. The shampoo lathers quite well and effectively removes dirt and oil. I hate shampoos that do not lather well or you need to use alot of product to remove oil from the hair. You do need some extra quantity incase you oil your hair but not too much!
My hair feels really soft and smooth after usage and I adore the fragrance which lasts for about 2-3 days and keeps my hair smelling good. I do find it a bit expensive so I suggest you buy those big 1.5 lts bottles which are more cost effective. Make sure you try out the smaller variant first to see if it suits your hair. I have been using the L’Oreal Professional hair care range for more than an year now and it has suited my hair much better than Schwarzkopf and even Kerastase hair care range!
Price: Rs 675 for 200ml

The L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Lipidum Mask/Conditioner comes in a pale gold tub with a screw on cap. The masque is light yellow in color and feels like whipped butter in texture! I use this as a conditioner after every shampoo and also as a hair masque during my DIY hair spa every 2-3 weeks. The L’Oreal Professional Range doesn’t come with a separate conditioner for all their variants in India and you are supposed to use the masques as a conditioner so don’t be surprised if the SA gives you the masque tub when you ask for a conditioner.
I take about a dallop for my medium length thick hair and massage it all over the roots and ends. Since my hair is quite unmanageable I do not mind if the masque weighs it down but if you have fine and limp hair then its best you avoid the roots and concentrate on the ends. I wash it off after 2-3 minutes. This adds shine to my hair and controls the frizz to a great extent! I have used the Liss Ultime & Cream Bath Hair Spa by L’Oreal Professional before but the Absolut Repair Masque works the best for my super dry and damaged hair. LOVE!
1) The shampoo lathers well
2) Adequately cleans dirt and grime as well as hair oil
3) The range has made my hair super soft and smooth to touch
4) The Absolut Masque adds shine and makes the hair manageable
5) The Shampoo-masque duo is perfect for damaged hair
6) I did not face any increased hairfall while using this range
1) The shampoo is a bit expensive if you buy the smaller variants.
2) Might weigh down fine hair
HBM Rating
HBM Recommendation: The L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Lipidum Shampoo & Masque is the perfect combination for someone with dry and damaged hair. The duo has managed to reduce frizz, make my hair soft and much more manageable. This has worked even better than the Kerastase Oleo Relax range which is saying something! Highly recommended for those with dry, damaged and chemically treated hair!

I tried instant clear from this range n it didn't worked.. arrgghh.. funny part is it was being recommended by my doctor.. sigh..
awww sad to hear that. I've always had a great experience with their professional range.
I had tried the Lactic acid one. Though I quite liked the shampoo, I was not really impressed with the masque. Is this one a new launch? Need to try the shampoo.
Yes. Absolutely prefect for damaged hair!
I have tried Liss Ultime and I love it!! If this is better than that one then I must check it out!!
Yes, yes! This worked better for me than the Liss Ultime but unless you have thick hair you might wanna stick to the former.
Like Kanika said I tried the instant clear one too for nearly 8 months and didn't work for me either :( But my hair is really very dry now and I need a decent haircare product so I might try this one !!
wow, that sounds like a dud range.
trust me this works wonders for dry and damaged hair.
Ohh nice.. It should work for my hair too.. I am too thinking which loreal professional shampoo to buy for dandruff n hair fall issues
awww :( Try Schwarzkopf, in my opinion they work better for hairfall and L'Oreal is apt for dryness & frizz
very nice review lisha as usual...i have oily air..can you suggest me any good shampoo
Thanks Preethi. Have you tried Biotique? My sister loves them for her oily and limp hair.
You can even try bed head.
Yeah, these are really very good products.. I have used these products atleast for 6-7 years.. I agree big bottle is worth to buy..still on my bath shelf..
Liss ultimate is good for helathy hair..
You can also try loccitane-/aromachologie-repairing-shampoo and conditioner..
For dry hair, please try loreal mythic oil shampoo and mask is also good.. I tired that during some winters..
Have heard great things about L'Occitane but its a bit out of my budget since I have very thick & long hair.
I have the Mythic range as well but havent tried it yet.
Looks like a lovely range babe! I have been lovin Loreal's shampoos & conditioners recently...after the current ones are over will look into this one :) Lovely review :)
Thanks sweety. I love L'Oreal's Professional range.
They work really well for my hair.
Sounds good! BUt I have a feeling that it might make my hair somewhat limp. Anything for volume in this range?
Haven't heard good reviews on their shampoos for limp hair, you might wanna try Biotique. My sister loves it
Loreal professional range shampoos are always good... the effect lasts till the next wash... but i am always worried abt the chemical content in it :(
Yeah, thats an issue with these professional ranges. Definitely high on chemicals!
i have splits on my hair, i came across loreal absolute hair repait kit consisting shampoo,masqu ,serum,. can we apply masque onto scalp???
