ClairolRoot Touch-Up Permanent Hair Dye, 5 Medium Brown

Although I am about to turn 70, I have only a small amount of grey around my front hairline and my short, fine but abundant hair is a dark blonde. I usually have 3 tones of warm highlights put in during the winter but this year it didn't happen, and the greys at my temples really started to annoy me. £75 to have this dealt with at the hairdresser so I carefully read reviews of this product and applied it, leaving it on for 20 minutes rather than 10 to ensure the greys were blended in. I am truly delighted with the result as there is now no discernible grey at all. The tone is very slightly darker than necessary for me so I will use it for 10 minutes next time. An excellent solution at a great price, but do follow the advice to use old towels and clothing in case of staining. One tip which was helpful from my internet researches....apply lip balm generously on your facial skin along the hairline to avoid skin stains too.

Wife uses this product a lot and does a good job .

Nice colour

Very useful for blending roots between salon visits. Only small amount provided - just enough for top and sides. If you want to do whole head roots you’d need at least two packs. Bit annoying that you have to buy a minimum of 2

It is very good covers greys good . I always use the same one

Very pleased with the results. I usually go to the hairdressers for this and pay over £60. With this product I achieved the same results. It was very easy to use,however,people with very thick hair or roots over 1inch may need 2 boxes.

It was my first time using a root touch up product so was a little unsure of the end result. I shouldn’t have worried - the pack had all that was needed with clear upbeat instructions.Really pleased with the colour and professional look. Will now definitely be spacing out the pricey salon highlight appointments. Will be using again (& again!).

I’ve used this now for a couple of years but I find that it fades after a week.I only used a small amount of each tube and just do hairs on sides of my head and the top parting just where people can see really, so I get a few uses out of each box and I leave it on for longer like 30 mins, and it looks fab at first but then a week later it needs doing again? I don’t think this is permanent?
