Product Information

Full details

The Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo is designed for adults seeking to refresh their hair between washes, offering a key benefit of absorbing oil and restoring volume without a white residue. A potential caveat is its synthetic fragrance, though it's formulated with less than one percent. This talc-free formula uses natural rice starch to combat oil and add texture, while sea buckthorn nourishes the scalp. It's ideal for reviving flat, oily, or second-day hair, leaving it looking and feeling freshly washed with an uplifting scent.

How does sea buckthorn benefit my hair?

Troubleshooting

Product leaves a white residue

Ensure you are shaking the can thoroughly before each use. Hold the can further away from your hair during application and massage the product in well. Brush out excess product thoroughly after allowing it to sit for a minute.

Hair still looks oily after application

You may need to apply more product, focusing on the oilier areas. Ensure you are applying directly to the roots. Allow the product to sit for an extra minute before massaging and brushing.

Can is not spraying

Check if the nozzle is clogged. If so, remove and rinse it under warm water, ensuring it's completely dry before reattaching. Ensure the can is at room temperature; extreme cold can affect spray performance.

Hair feels stiff or looks dull

This can happen if too much product is used. Try brushing your hair more thoroughly to distribute and remove excess. For future applications, use a lighter mist.
