Amika Blockade Heat Defense Serum 50ml

Amika Blockade Heat Defense Serum is a lightweight heat protection serum for smoother, shinier and healthier-looking hair during styling. It helps shield hair from heat up to 230°C, making it a useful step before blow-drying, straightening or curling. The non-greasy texture absorbs easily and helps smooth the hair surface without weighing it down, so it works well for everyday styling on fine, medium, thick or textured hair.

This flexible serum can be used on damp or dry hair, either before heat tools or as a tiny finishing touch to smooth frizz and add shine. It helps improve manageability, soften the feel of the hair and reduce the look of dryness linked with regular heat styling. If your hair often looks dull, frizzy or less polished after using styling tools, this is a simple way to support a sleeker, more controlled finish.

Suitable for: All hair types, especially hair regularly styled with hairdryers, straighteners, curling wands or heated brushes.

Benefits:

• Helps shield hair from styling temperatures up to 230°C.
• Helps calm frizz and flyaways for a more polished look.
• Adds a natural-looking gloss without greasy residue or heaviness.
• Helps hair feel softer, smoother and easier to style.
• Can be applied to damp hair before styling or dry hair as a finishing step.
• Lightweight enough for regular use as part of your styling routine.

Key ingredients and features:

• Sea buckthorn is a plant-based ingredient rich in fatty acids, used to help hair feel soft, flexible and cared for.
• Conditioning agents help smooth the hair surface and support a shinier, neater finish.
• Non-greasy serum texture absorbs quickly and helps protect without leaving hair feeling coated.
• Heat styling support makes this a practical pre-styling step for blow-dries, curls, waves and sleek finishes.

How to use:

• Dispense 1 to 3 pumps into your palms, depending on hair length and thickness.
• Apply evenly to damp or dry hair before using heat styling tools.
• Focus on mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the roots.
• Style as usual with your hairdryer, straighteners or curling tool.
• For extra smoothness, apply a very small amount to dry hair as a finishing touch.

Expert tips:

• For fine hair, start with 1 pump and add more only if needed.
• For thick or textured hair, apply in sections to make sure the serum is spread evenly.
• Use before every heat styling session to help keep hair looking smoother and more cared for.

Good to know:

• Avoid applying too close to the roots if your hair gets oily quickly.
• Use only a small amount on dry hair to keep the finish light.
