Amino Shot

For damaged and color-treated hair that faces the dryer, flat iron, and curling wand. Amino Shot is the multifunctional heat protector of Backbar Lab, a concentrated water-free shot that stays on the fiber and activates with heat. The silicone film reduces heat uptake from the thermal tool and speeds drying, while a matrix of eighteen amino acids with Sodium PCA replenishes the fiber amino structure and binds moisture. It seals the cuticle, controls frizz, and preserves color. Expect faster drying, brush slip, and shine, with the fiber shielded from heat.

Indicated for

• Every client leaving the backbar: standardized finish
• Severe loss of protein mass: hair that loses firmness when wet
• Same-day post-chemical service: disulfide bonds broken by oxidation
• Heat protection, pre-shampoo and mask booster

As a leave-in heat protector: spray on clean, damp hair, from mid-lengths to ends, before the dryer, or on dry hair before the flat iron or wand. As a pre-shampoo treatment: apply on dry hair, leave on for 15 to 30 minutes, and wash. As a booster: mix a few drops into the mask at the time of use. Do not rinse in the leave-in uses.
