Clairol Nice N Easy Root Touch Up Permanent Reviews

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.

I’ve always been looking for a quick and easy way to touch up my grays, this could just be it.

I love that it’s quick, not involving a lot of measuring the product and the brush is super handy as well. The brush makes application precise and accurate.

I left this on for a little longer than 10 mins however it did stain my skin so probably wouldn’t recommend that! The stain it wash off within a couple of days so it’s nothing too concerning.

I’ve had the dye on for almost 2 weeks now and don’t see any grays peeking through so that’s another plus point for me.

I love this because it’s mess free and very easy to patch up those peasky gray hairs.

To start off, I have black hair & been dying it auburn/red for the last year. My hair is the most stubborn & even at salons they usually have to bleach & rebleach before dying. So for the last year I've just been using box colour & it gives me that nice shiny redish hair in the sun. The problem with most dark hair is the white hair peaking out on my temples.

So I used 5R Medium Auburn / Reddish Brown Shade.

1st I thought it might be too light, as with my dark hair, it appeared more orange when i started to apply the product.

The brush supplied made it really easy to get to those stubborn roots. The little mixing bowl & gloves worked perfectly well and to mix the permanent colour creme & colour activating lotion was easy as.

I have long hair & after applying to my roots and making sure I have every little white hair possible, there was still a lot mixture left, which i just blended over the rest of my hair.

The product was drip free & the smell was not as over whelming as some products that makes your eyes actually tear up!

The colour actaully worked out beautifully & blended in really well with my darkish red hair.

Overall was really easy to do & I don't know why it took me so long to try this out.

Will I use this inbetween my colouring times? A definately oh hell yes!

I recently tried out the Clairol Nice N Easy Root Touch Up Permanent hair color, and overall, my experience was fairly positive. The product comes in a smaller amount compared to full-sized box dyes, which is a plus for me since I've often ended up with excess dye left over from the usual hair dye boxes.

The smaller amount of product was perfect for an "express" root retouch. However, I must mention that if you have a considerable amount of hair and extensive root regrowth, this might not be sufficient to cover your entire head of roots. Those with thick and voluminous hair, like myself, might find the product running out before complete coverage is achieved.

I appreciated the product's inclusion of a list of popular brands and shades that it's intended to match. This can be especially helpful for those who are uncertain about selecting the right shade.

On the downside, the brush included with the kit was a disappointment. The short and dense bristles caused my hair to tangle and become matted, making the application process messy and frustrating. Personally, I'd prefer using the type of brush that hairstylists use, as it offers a smoother and more controlled application. You can get them for a few dollars on TradeMe or at salon supply stores.

The product's grey coverage is really good, effectively concealing my greys without leaving any translucent hairs. This is an essential aspect for root touch-up products, and Clairol Nice N Easy delivers on this front.

The scent of the product was a mixed bag for me. While the floral fragrance was not to my liking, it was reassuring that the scent didn't linger excessively after washing my hair. However, this aspect could still be improved for those with sensitive noses.

In conclusion, Clairol Nice N Easy Root Touch Up Permanent is a convenient solution for in-between full root touch-ups, providing effective grey coverage and targeting specific areas of concern. Despite its positive features, the included brush's shortcomings and the less-than-ideal scent were noticeable drawbacks. I would consider using this product again for touch-ups between full dye sessions, but I would definitely opt for my own dye brush to ensure a smoother application process.

The usual box dye I use is actually cheaper than the Clairol so I would probably only buy it if it was on sale.

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!

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.

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.

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.

I was so excited to get chosen for my first review. When I received the parcel I felt there was nothing in the box but once opened there was a small tube of colour and developer, small brush and tray and gloves. MMM!! I was in need of a new colour so this was the perfect time to test. I applied to my middle part and went a couple of parts in and around my face. The brush and tray were really easy to use and enough product to cover the necessary. I left on for about 20mins rather than 10 as my greys are tough to colour and am really pleased with the result. The Cons for this product are you only have enough product for one touch up so cost saving is nil if you are a person like me who colours your own hair. I would have expected enough product to be able to use at least three times to extend three full head colour applications to make worth while. The pros are that if you only have a few greys this would be ideal and the product and colour works well, For me I would not bother as the cost is no sab=ving si I may as well do a full head covor,
