Root Touch Up

Root touch-up is the procedure of dyeing your hair roots. Hair color starts to fade around the roots as the new hair grows in its natural color. A root touch-up helps to cover up the visible difference between your natural hair color or grays at the roots against the dyed color on your lengths and tips. It will keep your color-treated hair last longer and save extra trips to the salon.

Hair grows pretty quickly, and when you're trying to cover up grays, it can be hard to maintain your color without regular trips to the salon. If you're looking to stretch out those pricey color treatments, you can always conceal your telltale roots at home.

How To Touch Up Your Roots At Home

  • If your dye is a subtle change from your natural hair color, a root touch-up at home is not that challenging. A cover-up spray or a root touch-up powder can do the job efficiently.
  • If your dye is markedly different from your natural hair color, it will show up as a conspicuous line of demarcation. This requires more work, and you might need a permanent hair dye.
  • Use a shade finder to select the color closest to your current shade. Consider whether your current color is neutral, warm, or cool.
  • If your hair tends to pick up color quickly, always go for light colors when choosing between shades.
  • For best results, apply the touch-up only on clean, shampooed hair. Oil or dirt on the scalp can interfere with the performance and give poor results.
