Do I use this on wet or dry hair?
Reset is a pre-wash treatment, meaning it should be applied to a dry scalp before you wash your hair. This allows the oils and charcoal to bind to impurities more effectively before water is added.
Is this safe for my colour-treated hair?
Yes! All amika products are 100% colour-safe. Because it focuses on the scalp rather than the hair lengths, it won't strip your professional colour.
Will this make my oily hair even greasier?
Not at all. While it starts as an oil, it rinses clean as a foam. It is actually specifically designed for oily scalps to help break down and remove the heavy sebum that regular shampoo can't always reach.
