Dry hair, greasy roots, hard-to-manage curls or visible dandruff: choosing professional Franck Provost hair products isn't just about comparing a fragrance or a promise on the packaging. Your hair type, the product's ingredients and how you use it all directly affect the results you'll get at home.
Some mistakes are particularly common:
For a regular routine, begin by identifying your priority issue:
Claims like silicone-free, sulphate-free or mineral oil-free don't mean a formula will automatically suit everyone. They simply describe a formulation choice. Also check for the presence of fragrance and fragrant allergens such as limonene, linalool or citronellol.
For a leave-in treatment, read the instructions carefully: some sprays are applied to damp or dry hair, only on the lengths and ends. A heat-protectant spray must be used before heat styling tools, taking into account the temperature and the manufacturer's recommendations for your device.
A 400 or 500 ml bottle is well suited to a family routine or frequent use, but it takes up more space than a 190 or 200 ml spray. For accessories, also check the exact contents: a pack of 10 professional clips doesn't serve the same purpose as a single clip sold individually.
Finally, aerosols like a 72-hour strong-hold hairspray must be kept away from flames, heat and high temperatures. Always read the label before first use.

We've put together a complete, real-time updated selection of products that meet these exacting criteria, in line with European safety regulations.
Choose a nourishing formula designed for very dry, thick or damaged hair. According to its product page, the Nutrition+ shampoo contains macadamia oil and shea butter. To complete your wash, you can apply a detangling treatment or a mask for dry and frizzy hair to the lengths.
Apply the product to the lengths and ends, on damp or dry hair as directed. Distribute it before using a hairdryer, straighteners or curling tongs. Avoid the eye area and follow the instructions on the packaging, especially the stated maximum temperature.
It depends on the product and your hair type. A shampoo, detangling conditioner or shine spray can fit into a regular routine if the formula works for you. A nourishing mask, a 72-hour strong-hold hairspray or a curl-defining gel are more suited to occasional or targeted needs. Always check the ingredients and stop using the product if irritation occurs.
