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.

Worked great on my roots, left on for 15 mins after a quick mix of the solution. Really easy and quick with fab results 🙌🏻

Really good hair dye I use it touch up roots I would say if you have thick hair you need two boxes .

This is such a useful product which saves at least 3 salon visits a year. Easy to apply to roots and enough I would say for most hair types.

Love this looks really natural and a really nice colour.

find the colour a bit dark, but that's just a personal choice.

I use this as I’m not grey all over, just a few streaks here, and there, therefore, a full coverage dye doesn’t really look good, and is overkill for my needs. This product is easier, and quicker to apply, doesn’t drip everywhere, and takes less time to set, meaning I can quickly wash it out, and dry my hair. I hate faffing, and this is a quick fix product for me, but because it’s meant for roots, I suppose the downside is that the dye isn’t as long lasting as others can be. Also, I think I might have issues as I often have to use 2 of these, as my hair is long, and thick. If yours is the same, be warned. You don’t have to wash your hair before you use this, but I have found that doing this has better results (the dye lasts a little longer). I can also leave this product on for 20 minutes, and I have no issues with reactions, burning, or whatever else. As I’ve mentioned, my hair is thick, it’s curly too, and there are some dyes which my hair just won’t take with, IE, the grey streaks remain grey. I’ve found leaving dyes on longer works a little better. I think if you have finer, or shorter hair this will be a good product, but with my hair type, it’s stubborn to dye, and doesn’t like holding onto the dye either!!!
