Gave my locks new life!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Amika color protect + strengthen treatment overall exceeded my expectations.

Nice leave in, but did not protect color
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I thought this was good as a leave in conditioner, but unfortunately I do not believe this offered the best color protection. I actually have noticed my hair getting lighter after using this and looking like I have highlights in my hair. I w...

Love!!!!
This product is great! You can accidentally overuse and it won't weigh your hair down. I love how thin yet hydrating it is. It does really well at heat protection with a blow dryer as well. I don't use other heat tools, but I imagine it would still be amazing!
great
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] this is a great product! it has made my hair look super duper shiny, and it does smell great! it does not leave a weird sticky residue in my hair, or make it crunchy!
Love the set!
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I am thrilled at the results of using the protector set which includes the shampoo, conditioner and strengthen treatment. At first I was disappointed the strengthen treatment was a spray rather than a cream but after a few uses, I prefer a spray! I can easily spray all sections of my hair and it gives more than just the UV and heat protection I was looking for. I felt my highlighted hair was looking a bit dry, somewhat straw-like and this set has brought a wonderful, weightless condition to it. I've never tried Amika products before but I'm convinced this set is worth it. Since I have color-treated hair, I'm not planning to deviate from this set. It also provides a fresh floral scent that is not overpowering. I even received a compliment of how nice my hair smelled when I got a hug!!
Thick frizzy hair must-have!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Strengthening spray is a critical piece of my hair routine because my color treated hair can't take much styling too often! The spray smells fantastic and appears to really help it over the past month before I blow dry. My thick frizzy hair is thankful for Amika!!
Great
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using the complete trio (Shampoo, Conditioner, and Leave-in Treatment) and my hair feels amazing! The shampoo lathers well without feeling stripping, and the conditioner leaves my hair incredibly soft and easy to detangle without weighing it down. The spray treatment adds a great layer of heat and UV protection while adding noticeable shine. My hair feels noticeably stronger with way less breakage, and my color hasn't faded or shifted at all. Plus, that signature Amika warm vanilla and citrus scent is unbeatable!
