The reality of colored hair

Walking out of the salon with freshly colored hair can give you a real confidence boost. Three or four weeks later, though, your roots start showing, and your next appointment may still be a few weeks away.

Keeping up with salon visits every four weeks isn’t always realistic. Between busy schedules and the cost of coloring, appointments can easily stretch to six weeks or more. Having a root touch-up product at home gives you a way to cover regrowth in the meantime.

A temporary root concealer is an easy option for refreshing your color between visits. Unlike a permanent root color treatment, it offers short-term coverage without committing to another coloring session. Products, such as root touch-up powder, are handy for disguising visible roots when you need a quick fix. Read on to learn how these concealers work and find one that fits your routine.

What is a root touch-up and root-touch powder?

A root touch-up, also known as a root concealer, temporarily covers visible regrowth between color appointments. Available as a root touch-up powder applied with a brush or as a spray, it takes just a few minutes to use and washes out with your next shampoo. It helps blend your roots with the rest of your hair for a more even color from root to tip.

Root touch-ups come in a range of shades to match your color. Applied to the surface of the hair at the roots, they hide both color regrowth and grey or white strands. Unlike a permanent root color treatment, a temporary root touch-up offers quick coverage. It’s a simple, affordable way to keep your color looking fresh when your next salon visit has to wait.
