  • Residue-free dry shampoo performance

amika earns largely positive reviews for effective styling and care—especially Perk Up dry shampoos, Soulfood and The Kure masks, Bust Your Brass purple care, and tools—delivering clean-feeling, shinier, smoother hair with no white cast and strong, lasting hold. Reviews also flag drawbacks: the signature fragrance reads overpowering or allergenic for many, some shampoos/lines feel heavy, drying, or leave residue on fine hair, and multiple users report inconsistent results and poor customer service.

  • I got this product from Ulta on a whim when my blowout just didn’t seem to have enough volume or body and I do not regret it. The smell of this product is heavenly. It’s super thin it mist and freeze beautifully into the hair and when you start applying heat, it really adds volume and shine. It has a great texture and it is a blowout primer that protects against up to heat at 450°

  • So far, I absolutely love this dry shampoo. It’s become one of my go-to products on days when I don’t want to wash my hair but still want it to look fresh and clean. It instantly gives my hair more life and volume without feeling heavy or leaving a weird residue. The smell is also amazing and makes my hair feel freshly done all over again. Definitely one of the better dry shampoos I’ve tried.

  • I used to be a Batiste girl for pretty much my entire life, until I got tired of having white residue in my hair. I tried this out for fun and it works so much better and doesn’t show up in my hair either! It smells great too. I use it so regularly that I bought the value size. I’m a convert!

  • I love Amika products for their quality, scent, and cute packaging! The hairspray works great and is lightweight while having great hold. It also has a matte finish. It comes out in a fine mist. It’s a great product for men or women.

  • Love love love this dry shampoo! This is one I love to have in my apartment at any given moment. It’s ways to use, smells delicious and gives me a refresh that allows my hair to go another day or two.

  • I really tried to like the hair mask, but I don't think my hair and the product get along. My hair ends up dry, and stringy. I have fine thin hair but a lot of it, and I make sure everything gets rinsed out well and it's been a few months now, and it just doesn't work. With that being said, even though it didn't work out for me, it might be great for someone else, and the marketing is awesome, and the bottle is so cute!

  • Amika hair products have saved my hair! I’ve used many of their products now and they’ve all worked so well. I love their dry shampoo, it keeps my hair looking fresh even days after a hair wash. It also smells great too!

  • I love Amika. I’ve tried several of their products and none of them have been a disappointment. They’re all very nourishing, my hair just drinks up all the moisture, and it’s super soft after and not greasy

    Received a free product from amika
  • I have every product. i dont know what to say. I love it all. the soulfood mask for your hair is to die for. they even have a shampoo and conditioner line of it and its great. I also loved the hydration line

  • I love Amika's products for the most part so I really wanted to love this dry shampoo. But I think it's just not a good fit for my hair. It left my hair feeling stiff and hard to brush out. I'm sure it's good for someone, just not me.

  • I love the smell and this product works great. I got it when spending time in the south and it helped not pop up all my baby hairs. I really love how the bottle looks on the shelf too. I look forward to trying more product by them. I have repurchased this twive!
