amika Bust Your Brass Toning + Strength Repair Mask 8 oz/ 250 ml
Overview
amika Bust Your Brass Toning + Strength Repair Mask is an 8 oz (250 ml) salon-style hair mask designed for blonde, silver, and gray hair that needs both toning and structural repair. The formula pairs violet (ultra-violet) pigments to neutralize warm, brassy tones with Bond-Fortifying Technology that targets weakened hair bonds to reduce breakage. Plant butters — mango butter extract, borage oil, and shea butter — provide hydration and fatty acids to improve softness and manageability without flattening texture. Clinically shown to strengthen damaged hair, this mask is aimed at people who frequently bleach or tone their hair, anyone maintaining cool blonds or grays at home, and those who want a combined moisturizing and reparative weekly treatment.
