I actually have noticed my hair getting lighter after using this and looking like I have highlights in my hair. I w...

I love this spray! I put it in when I hair is still went after washing and let me tell you. My hair gets so soft and smells sooo good after this. My hair is typically dry and very frizzy because I have thick hair and this tames it. It's absolutely amazing and will buy more when I run out.

The best amika product IVE ever tried

When I say I'm blown away. It's an understatement. My expresso color has not faded. My hair is stronger with less breakage. I don't know if it is a detangler but it works WONDERS! I haven't used it for heat but I'm sure it exceeds those expectations! It's not greasy or oily and the scent stays forever!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

I received this product for free to review. Pink packaging is fun and the spray feature is convenient. Spray in your hands first if you want more control over where the product goes! Leaves my hair soft and shiny. Has the classic Amika scent! Absorbs well into hair

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I loved this protector spray. It's very easy to use, smells so good & fresh on my hair. It kept my hair looks shiny all the time. Just spray a little after shower, I focus on the end the most on my fine hair. doesn't feel sticky if you spray a little. Even my hair looks good and healthy after being dry. I will definitely buy it again.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This spray leaves my hair feeling smoother and stronger. It keeps my recently dyed brown hair vibrant. Also it gives my hair some shine and reduces frizz.
