Amika earns largely positive reviews for effective, great-smelling hair care—especially Perk Up dry shampoo, Soulfood Nourishing Mask, and The Kure repair line—suggesting the brand works for many hair types. Reviews also flag real drawbacks: heavy, lingering fragrance, occasional residue or heaviness on fine hair, mixed results across lines, and reports of scalp irritation or hair loss for some, plus durability issues with a hot tool.

Amika's Resef Gel Shampoo is one of the great loves of my life, when it is actually in stock. Not only does it smell great, but because of the gel consistency that lathers into a luxurious foam, you never need too much.

I wish the Reset Gel Shampoo would be in stock more often!
I love this brand! The colorful packaging, the wonderful smells, and they actually work! I don’t mind paying a little extra for a good quality/pretty product!!
I'm a huge fan of Amika's dry shampoo. It comes in full size as well as travel sizes. Love the look of the packaging.

Would love if they came out with a dry shampoo for dark hair.
I absolutely love their dry shampoo , the best!!! Doesn’t make ur hair thick at all. I actually can easily go an extra day+ with this brand. Can’t wait to try other products from this brand
I have dry, curly hair and the Amika masks are a god send especially after putting heat on your hair. Plus that the packaging looks nice in your drawer.
I don’t like the formula of any of the products I have tried. The dry shampoo especially was a let down. Could just be my hair type.
I have a mixed relationship with Amika! I am not a fan of the signature scent that all of their products have and wish there was more variety across the product line. The shampoo and conditioner I purchased had keratin within it (but wasn't directly stated, discovered on the ingredient list), and after long-term used caused significant hair damage. Most of the products I have used are a 3/5 I have yet to find one that I absolutely love or think is worth the money.

Nourishing hair products with excellent ingredients!
I tried The Kure before I really started caring for my wavy hair, so my review isn’t complete there, but I love the smell and overall results of the product. It detangled well, and cleaned my hair well. I just tried the soulfood mask and was blown away. I loved the smell of the product, but was a little worried it would weigh my fine, wavy hair down because of it’s thickness. After leaving it in for 10 minutes, I was amazed by how soft my hair felt. I had an amazing hair day which has been rare recently, so I think I just needed a good condition and this did the trick! I will be trying The Wizard primer soon, and will update my thoughts!

A little pricey for some price points, website is a little much and can deter people away. Not everything is clearly explained either.

Just finished a bottle of "The Closer"! It smelled great, did the job in making my hair feel less brittle and dry, but wasn't to the level of "AMAZING!". But so much props for an effective, cruelty-free, and clean haircare brand!
I tried their dry shampoo. I really enjoyed it, did not leave any white mark in my dark hair and also smelled amazing. I also found that it did a good job at soaking in grease in the hair when compared to some other brands.

If you are a bottle blonde and need some help in the recovery department, their container of the Hydro Rush hair mask is a savior in disguise. When my hair was super frail and bleached out like hay, Iused this every week to help with the recovery and it was a god-sent. I also use their hair spray in the summer to help fight the humidity frizz since I live in the sunshine state.
Love Amika as brand. I have tried only one product for now but really love it and definitely will try others. All my friends who have tried Amika also love the brand so I things it's a brand that is worth trying!
I’ve heard mixed reviews on Amika because of their ingredients not being the cleanest but I must say I love most of their products. They feel really luxe and last a long time. I am particularly impressed with the hair mask and the shine spray. The mask is so thick and I can feel the difference as soon as I am out of the shower. The shine spray I will buy forever it’s a hair perfume and is the perfect finishing touch to any hairdo, the shine is so healthy and non greasy !

I lovee the dry shampoo! It leaves no residue on dark hair and smells amazing. It's a little expensive but a little goes a long way so I say it's worth it.
I’ve been using the soul food mask for awhile now, to add I have super curly hair. This mask is good but not the best I’ve found! Smells amazing!
I’m a big fan of Amika products, and the Flash Instant Shine Mask is one of my favorites. It’s super easy to use—just apply it after conditioner, leave it on for 1 minute, and then wash it out. The best part is that it doesn’t interfere with my hair styling at all, and it leaves my hair looking shiny and healthy. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to add a little extra shine to their routine!
Their signature scent is amazing!! What makes me love their products even more is their scent, every time I use their products I get compliments on how my hair smells good. Their detangling spray makes my hair shiny, smell good AND protects from heat. I’m picky with dry shampoos but I got to say theirs is wonderful, soaks up the oil and smells great
