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. Not all products agree with my hair but this one I will be buying repeatedly. I want to start by saying how amazing this smells. I am huge on scents and I ca...

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...

Best for colored hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This makes my hair so soft after a shower!! It keeps my color looking fresh in between salon visits. I love that the packaging is easy to use and comes with a lot. I know the price is steep but it actually has made a difference in my hair.
Takes away the natural softness from my hair
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I was excited to try the Amika brand b/c I've had seen it all over social media. I don't think this product is for me. I like products that feel like I'm not wearing anything on my hair. I feel that it takes away how soft my hair usually feels. It might help against color fading, but I'm not a fan.
Smells nice and protects well
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Amika Color Protect and Strengthen treatment spray is wonderful as a leave in conditioner and heat protectant. It sprays nicely from the pump action bottle and smells nice and clean. It works beautifully in conjunction with the Protect and Strengthen shampoo and conditioner and helps to protect my color treated hair.
Care for colored hair
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The amika color protect + strengthen treatment has a nice nozzle. It sprayed evenly throughout my hair without leaving it greasy or weighed down. It helped reduce tangles and made my hair much easier to brush though. Overall, it left my hair feeling smoother and more manageable.
Boost snd strength
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review ]The color protector snells amazing and made my hair feel stronger. It gave my 4C hair the feeling of giving a boost and it absorbed well. The packaging is cute and a litte goes a long way. Definitely recommend .
