Lives up to its name - nice and easy

I was excited to try this product as I usually just colour my entire head when actually only the roots need doing. This product means I don't have to damage the lengths of my hair by over exposing them to unnecessary dye. Also, the ten minute time frame is a big plus!

This product does have quite a pungeant ammonia scent and my scalp tingled a bit, but that's pretty standard I reckon.

It comes with an applicator brush and mixing tray. I quite liked the brush - it let's you put the dye exactly where it's needed and you can avoid making a mess. The tray was really tricky though - it's a bit flimsy and hard to mix the dye in and it's hard to hold. I prefer a bottle applicator.

The dye itself blended well into my previous colour (which was a Revlon product) - I was worried there would be a line of colour difference. It also seemed to cover my few first greys quite effectively.

Tips: Take care with the mixing tray - it would be easy to have it slip out of your hand and make a big mess!

Holy grail for hair dyers!

Pleasantly surprised with how easy this was to use and how well it worked!

Easy to prepare and it really does take just 10 minutes to get rid of regrowth.

The colour is lovely but the scent is quite overpowering so lucky you don’t need to leave it on for long.

I will be using this again, and again and again :)

Tips: It’s easier to apply the product with gloves than with the brush that’s enclosed.

Quick and easy

I had previously used Clairol Nice ‘n Easy in #8 medium blonde, which was awesome, so when I got the invite to trial this product I was super excited. Comes with everything you need, a wee brush, gloves, and a bowl, lots of plastic, unfortunately, but no need to go hunting for supplies. Instructions are pretty simple to follow, though I was immediately disappointed to discover it is meant for your most visible roots. There’s just not enough for your whole head of hair. Makes sense when the product is called “Root Touch Up”, but for some reason I really thought I could do it all. I could not. The product smells as you would expect hair dye to smell. I always dye my hair with a fan on because the fumes sting my eyes. I left the product in for about 15 minutes, and washed it out with my own hair care products as there was nothing left in the box for aftercare. I do like the result, it lightened my darker blonde nicely to blend in with the previous dye job. It was definitely a quick and easy process, though I think the next time I will just got for the whole head of hair so I can do space buns and things without worrying about darker roots.

Not too bad for root cover, not fantastic

I was glad to be chosen for this trial team as I love Clairol and have been using their products for many years.

This root touch up promised to cover greys and to blend with most leading brands including salon ranges, which sounded great! The box is the typical white and blue of Clairol box colours but has been updated since I last used it and it’s pretty nice. I received the 9A matched light ash blonde shades.

The bottles are tiny! I assume it’s supposed to be just enough for one root touch up, but really was a teeny and I don’t really think it was enough to do a good root coverage as I was covering the middle roots but also under the fringe area and behind the ears. I do think the bottles need to be a wee bit bigger with a bit more product.

So the product was easy to mix in the wee tray supplied which was really cute in an oval shape but nice and deep. It can with the usual gloves which are a little better than they used to be, or when I last used some anyway. I did like the brush and I’ll keep it for the next touch up or colour i use as it’s quite ergonomic and easy to use. The instructions are easy to follow and I applied the touch up and left for the full 10 minutes and rinsed off as instructed.

The colour was ok, a bit brassy to be honest and not a match but wasn’t too obvious on my colour. It says it will last up to 3 weeks so will wait and see on that. Didn’t make my hair feel yucky even for a permanent colour.

All in all, not a bad root touch up, not great and really on the fence as to whether I’d use it again to beg honest - the things that would put me off are the price and the amount you get.

Tips: Leave on a for a bit longer if you have stubborn greys and do a treatment prior to use for an extra moisture boost as grey/white hair is resistant due to lack of moisture

Great product, easy to use, works fast!

Really happy with this product. It was easy to apply with the brush and gloves. It worked fast, and was very effective. I like it a lot better than their same colour instant colour match spray, as that leaves my hair feeling a little 'crispy' or 'crunchy', not soft, but that product of theirs does also work, as is instant if you don't have 20-30 mins for the root touch up dyeing, and a shower or rinse of afterwards. Thanks for the opportunity to try this, I will most likely buy it, as better than redyeing ALL my hair, much less mess :o) and faster.

Tips: I always put vaseline around my hairline (not on the hairs) and and ears, and around behind neck, any places that can get otherwise stained my a little out of place dye. I find this works whenever I an dyeing my hair.

Does the job but there are better products out the

I feel this product is basically the same thing as the normal hair dye but repackaged with a brush and smaller containers. First of all, the brush is very hard and scraps your skin, secondly there's still quite a strong ammonia smell to the mixture. There's an excessive amount of plastic used in this package that doesn't need to be, yes the end result is fine but one doesn't need to buy this to have the same result, you can buy a normal pack and just use a portion of the package for the same result and use a clean toothbrush to do the job.

Tips: Use your own brush

Revitise colour between colours

Having coloured my hair for a number of years I was interested to see how Clairol nice n easy root touch up performed. I read the instructions, applying to dry unwashed hair as normal. I applied to the centre parting first then tried to cover as much grey as possible. As I have stubborn grays, I left the solution on for 15 minutes then rinsed and conditioned as instructed. I was pleasantly surprised how well the colour matched with what I had previously used and the quick processing time. I would use again possibly if the price was less than my normal colour, or for a quick touch up!

Tips: Apply to unwashed hair.

A quick fix

If you have used box dye before you will have no trouble with this product. It is only enough for around your face and neck and one or two "parts" of your hair. The enclosed brush is good for parting your hair as needed but I found it was too narrow to be gripped comfortably with gloves and I gave up and just used my gloved hand to apply the dye. Full disclosure - I have no grey and my hair is an dark ash blonde dyed medium brown so my roots aren't glaringly obvious. The results were good - the colour match appeared seamless. I did my first shampoo today and I have a feeling that the colour has already lightened a bit, so I'm not sure how long the colour will stay covering the roots - time will tell. All in all this is a quick fix between colours and the 10 min time to complete the treatment is awesome. I would definitely use this again to make my colour last a bit longer.

Root touch up

This root retouch cream was a nice consistency easy to apply and the little blue application brush is nice to use to paint on the product, the scent wasn’t overpowering like some colours. It covered my greys, I left it on another 5 minutes like it suggested for stubborn greys. Matched and blended my colour well, overall happy with this product maybe a little more would be good.

Tips: With a few minutes to go lightly comb the colour to blend into the old colour.

Clairol Nice N Easy Root Touch Up Permanent Review

I'm always on the hunt for something to make my glittering greys less noticeable, so when Clairol Nice N Easy Root Touch Up Permanent came up for review I was very excited. The packaging was simple and gave all the necessary information. It was interesting to find a small mixing bowl for preparation, the two liquid ingredients were poured into it and the when mixed you applied the dye with a brush. Although this preparation method was a little fiddly it was effective. I had a lot of dye left over and did as it said by putting it into my lengths. The 10 minute process time was a nice surprise. The smell also wasn't bad. After rinsing the colour was consistent and covered most of my greys, some had snuck through which was a bit perplexing. Overall this product did exactly what it says on the box. I found it to be easy and effective. I do feel however with its price point being similar to that of a full head colour the value for money isn't as good. I would probably consider buying this again, but think I would buy a regrowth spray or cover up powder instead.

I found the pricepoint the only problem too although if you had your colour done at a salon this would save a lot of $$ with delaying treatment by 3 weeks each time.
