The gray be graying

Let's start with the positives. Love, love the little application brush- it isn't flimsy which makes applying the dye so much easier. The little container bowl to mix the colour is also handy.

I applied as per instructions ( around hairline and middle Part ) then applied on any other areas I could see - especially where I have grays showing and growing.

I left on my hair for 15minutes even though it states that it can be done in 10.

Once washed out and dried I noticed it didn't cover any of my grays and my regrowth is still slightly showing.

I wouldn't use this again and would recommend just purchasing a normal box dye to cover roots in between hairsalon appts.

Tips: Purchase just for the application brush to be honest haha

The idea is good but....

It definitely works. And it just takes 10min. However, if just comes with enough product to retouch one part of the hair. So by the price of it, I don't see the point on buying this instead of buying a normal hair dye with a normal amount of the product to retouch all the Grey hair.

Clairol Nice and Easy Root Touch Up Trial!

I received my package and I was excited and relieved because I had some nearly 2 inch long grey regrowth coming through. It had a small container to mix the product in, with a brush and gloves. I found the brush easy enough to scoop up dye and apply. It brushes on the product well enough but the bristles would take a bit of back and forth as the dye would push to the opposite side. The instructions said only 10 mins needed to completely cover greys, I did end up being about 15 minutes. Then I rinsed my hair. My personal results were not the best, I had the dark brown dye and I got a slight medium brown result. Regardless I was happy enough with it for a couple days but day 3 my greys looked noticeable again.. I would recommend this product for someone needing something in a pinch, it took no time at all to apply which is perfect for people with busy schedules. 15 mins before your morning shower then your good to go for work.

Tips: For touching up grey hair I would suggest leave it a bit longer about 20 at least.

10 minute dye job

I love the idea of cutting down on waiting time when redying my roots and this dye only requires 10 minutes for it to develop rather then the standard 20 - 25 minutes. The in-shower rinse out is surprising quick also, after only a few minutes the dye had rinsed away completely. After drying my hair following dying it I did find quite a lot of grey hairs weren't actually dyed despite being fully covered during the dying process. It has got a slightly floral chemical scent but nothing too overwhelming, I have a sensitive scalp and I experienced no burning or irritation. It's worth noting also that no conditioner sachet comes with it, a bit disappointing at this price point ($13) and one of my favourite things about home dye is how nourishing the after dye conditioners make my hair look and feel. I would probably have repurchased this dye as it was quicker and easier then my go to color silk but since it did not dye a good majority of my roots I wouldn't.

Tips: The brush application is easier if you have someone doing it for you.

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

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

Does the job

First of all I am glad the colour matched my colour. The product does what it says it would with covering greys , and the instructions were easy to follow. The brush in the kit wasn’t the most easy to use unfortunately. I would get this again if it was more significantly cheaper than regular hair dye.

Tips: Use in combination with comb to part the hair to ensure you don’t miss any areas.

Quite good for quick fix

Box contained very nice applicator, designed to turn easily between fingers to make parts on one end and spin to use applicator brush on other end. Gloves provided were good - slightly softer and less crispy than some are. Product mixed quickly and easily in the plastic container provided.

Application process was straightforward, thanks to the good brush and I left it on for the recommended 10mins. Colour blended well with my existing shade, tho a little darker than I expected.

Coverage of grey was okay initially but seemed to come out a bit in the first few washes, so not sure yet how well it will hold up.

Tips: Very practical and easy solution for touch-up, but I wouldn't say it completely wowed me. But for a quick fix, definitely does the job.

Good Root Touch up

This product was easy to apply, it came with more product than expected so I was able to do more regrowth than I thought. Which was great! The colour match was good with my ends. However, I don’t like that it only lasts three weeks, it is a good product between going to the salon. I’m not sure if I will use again. I liked the brush which made application easier.

‘Easy’ the operative word

I am always a bit hesitant when trying out new hair colours for the first time. I think it harks back to my high school days, when I sometimes used to let my friends colour my hair - often with disastrous results… Think hair ‘stripes’, orange instead of blonde - you know the drill! And, then I’d have to go to the salon, with my tail between my legs, to sort it out!

I was pleasantly surprised with this root touch up: there were no such disastrous results and it blended in pretty seamlessly with my hair. The packaging the product comes in is fresh, clean and white and the instructions are easy to follow. Just be methodical when following them - as with any instructions for any diy hair brand and colour.

Luckily, the instructions are clear enough to follow with this Clairol Nice n’ Easy Root Touch Up. ‘Easy’ is therefore an apt word in the name of this product. And it’s quick too! I was happy with the amount of time it took - no 40-minute lengthy wait, forget that! I probably did wait slightly longer than 10 minutes to cover my greys, but it would still have only taken roughly 15 minutes. So, it’s convenient, quick and easy to apply.

There were no major issues and no disasters - thankfully. So, I was pleased with the outcome overall. However, I do have a few minor issues with this permanent root touch up that are worth mentioning...

I have quite thick hair, so I would’ve preferred a bit more product to get even better coverage... There was only enough product for a subtle touch up. And, while I do think it covered my greys fairly well, it didn’t cover them perfectly. There were still a few poking through.

All in all, I was happy with this product - I just would’ve preferred a bit more of it. But it is just a ‘touch up’ and that’s all it claims to be, so this product does do what it says it will do in that regard. I would therefore recommend it to others for this particular reason - if you can’t be bothered or don’t have time to do your usual full head of hair - either at the salon or in your own home - then this is a quick and easy solution. I just wish there was a bit more of it! Three to four kisses.
