Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Shampoo 275ml — Hyaluronic Acid & Squalane for Dry, Textured Hair

Amika Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Shampoo is a hydrating cleanser that uses hyaluronic acid, squalane, and coconut water to deliver long-lasting moisture to dry, textured, or coarse hair.

This concentrated 275ml shampoo is formulated to gently remove dirt and buildup while delivering deep hydration for hair types 2a–4c, including color-treated and chemically processed strands. Key actives—hyaluronic acid, squalane, polyglutamic acid, blue algae, and coconut water—work together to attract and seal moisture into the hair fiber for improved softness and manageability without weighing hair down.

How does this shampoo hydrate without making hair greasy?

Hydro Rush uses lightweight humectants and emollients that draw moisture into the hair shaft and help lock it in. The formula balances water-attracting ingredients like hyaluronic and polyglutamic acids with squalane, a non-greasy oil that smooths cuticles and prevents moisture loss.

• Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds water molecules for immediate moisture.
• Polyglutamic acid enhances water retention for longer-lasting hydration.
• Squalane smooths cuticles without heavy residue or buildup.
• Coconut water and blue algae add lightweight conditioning nutrients.

Will this work on color-treated or keratin-processed hair?

Yes—Hydro Rush is safe for color-treated and keratin/chemically processed hair. It’s formulated to cleanse gently while protecting color vibrancy and reducing the appearance of damage, so treated hair receives moisture without stripping pigments or smoothing treatments.

• Color-safe surfactants that avoid fading or dulling color.
• Hydrators that reinforce weakened strands and reduce breakage signs.
• Non-stripping lather suitable for keratin-treated textures.

How long do the hydration benefits last and what results can I expect?

Amika reports hydration benefits lasting up to 72 hours with regular use, and laboratory testing shows hair appearing three times more hydrated after application. Users can expect softer, more manageable hair with reduced visible damage when combined with a matching conditioner or weekly treatments.

• Up to 72 hours of boosted moisture retention when used as directed.
• Clinically measured improvement in hydration levels and damage reduction.
• Luxurious lather that rinses clean while leaving a hydrated feel.

How should I use this shampoo for best results?

Apply on wet hair, massage into a rich lather focusing on roots and mid-lengths, then rinse thoroughly. For textured, coarse, or very dry hair, follow with a matching Hydro Rush conditioner or a leave-in moisturizer to seal hydration and smooth cuticles.

• Use 1–2 pumps for short hair, more for longer or thicker lengths.
• Massage gently—allow a minute for the actives to penetrate the strand.
• Follow with a conditioner or styling product to lock in benefits.

Who is this product for? Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Shampoo is designed for anyone with dry, textured, curly, coily, or coarse hair (types 2a–4c) seeking long-lasting hydration without weighing hair down. It suits color-treated and chemically processed hair, and is a good choice for people who want a shampoo that pairs with restorative conditioners and targeted moisturizers to improve softness, manageability, and the appearance of damage.
