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...

Great scent
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Amika the Protector Color Protect + Strengthen Treatment is an effective moisturizer/detangler. A few sprays after washing and it adds moisture and reduces repair.
100% yes
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] First of all, this product help de tangle hair pretty well. I cannot comment on how it help with my hair color yet but the scent is nice and my hair does fell smoother after blow drying.
Great color treatment
This was the perfect time to try this product as I had just had my hair colored. I am natural curly head girl. The first picture is of my hair right after I washed my hair. I applied the Amika color protect to my hair wet. The second pic is of my hair freshly blow dried and styled. The third pic is of my hair after it was colored and the Amika color protect was used again. The product left my hair shiny. My hair color really popped afterwards and it had a lot body. It left no residue. My hair was super soft and lightweight after styling. I was able to flat iron my hair with ease. I have used the product 3 times and my color is still vibrant like the first day.
Good spray but made my hair greasy
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I like how this product sprays very easily and no clumpy. It has has a lock on the spray attachment so if you are traveling you don't have to worry about it spraying in your bag. The thing I didn't love about this product is I noticed my hair got greasy fast if I used this which I didn't love. Usually my hair takes 2-3 days to get greasy but when using this it was usually greasy within a day.
Good product, amazing scent!!
Okay first, 5 stars for the scent! The Anika products have to have the best scent on the market! Overall, liked the color and heat protectant! Especially like that it didn't make my hair feel heavy or leave a lot of residue.
