Clairol Root Touch-Up Permanent Hair Dye, 4 Dark Brown (Packing May Vary)

This is my go-to for quick root touch-ups. I have dark brown hair and the shade blends really well, covering greys effectively without looking harsh or obvious. What I like most is how easy and fast it is to use. Everything is included in the box (gloves, colourant and developer), you just mix and apply, leave for around 10 minutes, then rinse. It’s very convenient if you don’t want to spend time or money at the salon. A useful tip: I don’t need the full amount each time, so I usually use about half and save the rest for another touch-up a few weeks later. That makes it very good value for money. The only thing to be careful with is application — it can stain surfaces if it drips or touches the sink/shower, so make sure to rinse everything straight away. Otherwise it can be difficult to remove. Overall, very effective, quick, and great value. I keep coming back to it.

Quick and easy to use. Covers grays well. I've used this many times before and will continue to do so.

Perfect for me. Easy to use . I used to use the clairol permanent dark brown normal hair dye but they changed the ingredients and it turned my roots orange so I've gone back to the root touch up..Perfect for me i have a short bob hairstyle and I use 2 boxes on my roots and it covers perfectly. My hair grows really quick and my hairdresser used to dye it every 2 / 3 weeks but since covid lock down I've been doing it myself, with a bit of help to do the back 😀 hell of alot cheaper than at the hairdressers, just pay to have it cut now. I highly recommend plus it's cheaper on here than in supermarkets.

A handy product to colour roots, I find this is less of a faff than some products. The box includes an instruction leaflet that is sealed with a pair of plastic-type gloves inside. There is no conditioner supplied. The 2 x 15 ml products are numbered: ‘1’ & ‘2’ in the various diagrams and are easy to open. They are relatively easy to mix together with the application brush in the little transparent, plastic-type, oval shaped dish provided and, unexpectedly perhaps, the mixed product is creamy coloured to start with! There doesn't look like there will be enough, either, but there is, I find. I tend to leave on for the extra 5 minutes as advised in the instructions. The result is good and lasts until new growth starts to show. However, partings can look a bit coloured initially, in my experience. 📝 ‘Always perform an allergy test and strand test prior to using the hair colour’ ooOoo ~ CLAIROL ~ ROOT TOUCH-UP ~ PERMANENT HAIR DYE SHADE: 4/DARK BROWN ooOoo The root touch up set is presented in a cardboard box measuring around 16 cm x 7.5 cm x 5 cm, so not too bulky. The ingredients are clear, as are the instructions. I tend to wear rubber gloves rather than those supplied, as the colour is hard to remove from hands once developed, I find. I would recommend wiping away any residue around the hairline, back of the neck & ears before the wait time, for the same reason. The brush supplied is a good size and with the relatively thick blended product, little or no mess is created if care is taken, also in my experience. It is relatively easy to rinse away and the overall result is shiny, healthy looking hair, also in my experience. There is a fairly potent odour as you would expect with a product of this kind but not as bad as some. I always open a window before using. [16 images attached]

Does exactly what it says on the box. Root touch up. I’ve used a fair few different hair dyes before but the results for this one speaks for itself. Very easy to apply. Will be buying again :)

I use this product all the time for my roots, and I’m very happy with it. It works great for gray hair.

Perfect! I was very nervous about using it, but it looks great, it has blended in with my blonde/brown highlights perfectly and has covered the grey. I was worried that it would mess up my hairdresser coloured hair but it looks great and has blended well. I will be buying again.

If you are just having a parting and by the ears touch up then this Clairol Root Touch up might suffice. My colour was still nice and my parting was a light silver but I had a few centimeters of dark grey roots starting to appear. Easy to use, but a very small quantity. I ideally need twice the amount. Which is annoying because the minimum order for this product was 2 boxes. I won't order this product again, if like me, you have a full head of roots, you are better off buying a full colour and follow the instructions for root touch up.. You also have the bonus of a nice conditioner to finish, unlike this touch up kit. I left it on longer, but you can see on my photos it hasn't done the job. You can see in my clip its an easy product to use and only a tiny amount. It caused no adverse effects, other than my original dark roots remained!
