amika Bombshell Blowout Spray, 8 Fl Oz

"Holy Grail" products have come and gone in my life but this is definitely a keeper. At the price it's a bit "spendier" than I'd normally spend for a styling product, but this stuff does it all, replacing at least two other products, maybe three. After a recent bichbox sample lasted at least a month and a half of nearly daily use I realized I was going to be lost without it.About my hair & routine: Baby fine and straight with a tendency to fly-away at the hint of a breeze. My normal routine requires mousse for texture and volume, heat protectant, hair spray and frequently a texturizing spray to help it maintain a pulled together "naturally mussed" look (I have a long bob now grown out to basically a shoulder-length blunt-ish cut) which I usually achieve with the beachy-wave type curl. Sometimes I go straight, but only from blow-drying. I generally wash my hair daily, but am no stranger to dry shampoo, either. Sheesh, come to think of it I used Kenra Silkening Gloss quite a bit, too.With a few spritzes of this stuff (a little goes a long way) on damp hair I can easily skip ALL of the other styling products, for real. I'll still use mousse if I want extra-extra volume, but seriously, this stuff is amazing. I use a large round brush to dry my hair and the hair just magically smooths as I brush & blow it out, then holds whatever shape I've gone for. It's not stiff or tacky, and isn't going to completely replace hairspray on more structured styles, but for my looser look it is perfect. If I want a little more texture or to smooth out an area that looks a little fly-away I'll just give an extra spritz here and there and scrunch/wind. I generally find no need for hairspray.An unexpected bonus; it really works great as a blowout dry-shampoo replacer! I tend to get "the greasies" behind my ears and have found that if I give a few good spritzes there, then a few overall sprays, I can completely recreate a fresh clean hair day.So now that I really think about it, that is a sum total of SIX (not cheap) products I have moved to the back of a cabinet because of this glorious stuff.Pros: Every darned thingCons: I'm sad for all the unicorns that have to suffer to provide the tears for this product.ETA: The scent is light and non-cloying, and the Amazon purchase was true to the sample I'd received. I'm always a little leery of expensive beauty products on Amazon having seen many complaints of fake product on other items, so figured you'd want to know this is the real stuff. I purchased as a Prime order through seller Shine of Beauty fulfilled by Amazon.

This is one of my favorite sprays for my hair. I have very versatile hair (mostly curly, can be straight if weather/humidity permits, or I can curl it). I love how this product tamed my hair and the smell is great. I would recommend this product to anyone because it can be used when straightening or if you want a beachy wavy look.The Diamond Star Rating System is as follows:* - Completely unusable and meets not expectations.

I was super excited to try this stuff. I actually received a sample of it in my birchbox a few months back and that sample product worked fantastic! It made my hair more volumized, more texture and it smelled fantastic. It was the first product I had ever had a sample of and immediately went and bought a full size of. I was quickly disappointed when I received it though. When I used the product, it felt like the formula wasn't the same as the sample. It was almost TOO texturizing. It added a little volume but not enough to keep using it. It still smelled great, so that is a bonus. I'm not sure if I just got a dud, or what, but I was overall not super happy with this product. I have very thin, fine hair so volume and texture is very important to me, but this seemed like a little over kill. I'll keep trying to see if I can figure out the problem. As for the actual packaging, I love the spray feature. I like that there is a handle verses a short button to push, it makes it much easier for application.

Gives great volume when used before blow drying. However, it felt a bit sticky when sprayed on damp hair. Didn't cause flakes though. I prefer using this as a hairspray after styling. Holds well, and smells terrific!

I received this product yesterday and decided to try it out! I washed my hair and sprayed some of this on and then I blow dried it. OMG.. The results were phenomenal. I loved the volume it gave my hair. It definitely looks like I have MUCH more hair than I really do! It smells amazing and very very easy to spray on. I didn't know but you can also use it after your hair is dry. More so for styling! Definitely, recommend this product!! :) I've added two pictures. My first one is my hair and how it looks after I styled it. LOVE this product! :)

I love this hair product. I have fine straight hair (lots of it) and this product works great. If gives my hair just the right volume and hold up to the southern humidity better than any product I have tried so far. It smells great!! I use it everyday and it's hardly shows any gone. I bought it a little over a month ago. I would recommend this product to anybody.I will buy again when I run out!!!

This spray is AMAZING!!!! I love how it makes my hair smell, look and feel! I originally bought a tiny bottle from Marshalls and was amazed by it and went to get more but couldn't find it anywhere, obviously I then turned to Amazon and found this large sized bottle available and thank goodness for it! I use it all the time and it makes my straightened hair stay straight for up until i wash it again, and sometimes I don't wash it for a couple days. Even if i put my hair up for a few hours and then let it down again, my hair is still as straight as can be, It's crazy amazing! I would do a commercial for this spray thats how much I love it! I just love it! Thanks makers! Great work!!!!

Very good product!!

Smells incredibly amazing and light, didn't leave residue, leaves hair fresh, beautiful and pleasant smelling. Great Amika product!
