Yep but it's
ker-uh-staz (it's a z sound!).
It's French!
"S" between two vowels is like a "Z"

 Yes, if you can pronounce it with the proper french accent, otherwise, you just sound like a stupid American 
My sister works for L'Oreal (who own the brand) and when the French come in to the city they all tell them to just say Ker - a - stass .........b/c the NY accent hurts their ears -
Needless to say no one is a fan of the weeks the French are in town !!

Re: Another pronunciation question... kerastase..
I have hard time saying French words with an American Accent so they understand what I am saying.
Sometimes I go to restaurants and nobody knows what i am ordering.
