Would like recommendations for drugstore root touch-up hair products. I say drugstore because I need to purchase it today or tomorrow. I have the "spray on" version but just not happy with it, except if I'm desperate. I get my hair professionally touched up every 3-4 weeks, problem is I'm attending a wedding this Saturday and I'm one week away from my touch up appointment so I need an at home solution asap.
I know I can google for this but I don't always trust Byrdie's or Marie Claire's or Cosmo magazine's recommendations. Prefer to hear from other women who I know will be honest. Thanks!! |
I like Everpro "Gray Away Root Touch-up Powder" but not sure how available it is on drugstore shelves. I usually buy it from Amazon. They claim the powder is "magnetic" which I don't understand, but it does seem to stay out and blends well.

Clairol Nice N' Easy Root Touch-Up.
None of the sprays/powders work for me. |
On this in lieu of going to salon appointment next week? I don’t think you can use demi perm/perm dye then go again in a week. It could damage your hair |
This. It could literally make your hair melt if you don’t disclose. |
Oh really! I didn't think of that but it makes sense! Thank you for the heads up! |

I use this and really like it.. I also get my hair colored by a stylist and it has never been an issue.. although granted I haven't been only one week after application. |
This is the best i've found so far. |
Thank you! I moved my appt to the 20th so I'm going to go ahead and try this! On my way to Target! |
For brown hair the Bumble and Bumble is the best for temporary root coverage! The spray and color stick look so natural and doesn’t flake or rub off.

This is a terrible idea. Use the root spray or chalk to cover up regrowth and wait for your appointment.

Just use a spray and not one of the permanent touch up kits. I like L’’Oreal’s root touch up spray. I can feel it in my hair and scalp but for a one night event it is sufficient. |
^^ I have used many sprays & they always wear off.
I highly recommend using a root touch-up kit for best results. The best one I have tried (and highly recommend!) would be Nice and Easy’s root touch-up kit. |
OP is getting a professional touch up next week though. The spray is sufficient for a one night event. |
