COLOR WOW Root Cover Up

Product Information

After consulting with a celebrity hairstylist and expert color matcher, and considering dozens of brands, we landed on the following best in show.

Finally, we love that along with brunette and blonde shades, it contains a fiery auburn shade for red root coverage. But on darker hair, grays can look quite pronounced, making a semi-permanent root cover-up a better option. Especially for products that deposit pigment instantly, like sticks, powders, and sprays, it's best to start with a little product and build up as needed. These products include the Color Wow Color Security Shampoo and Conditioner and Color Wow Dream Coat spray.

At the time of publishing, we were not able to find any root touch-ups from a Black-owned and/or Black-founded business. The push down applicator easily pumped out the dry foam liquid which gave our hair a thin coat of colour. While its thin nozzle makes it easy to spray on to the hair and direct it to the exact section of the hair you want to cover. But what you can do is use one of these handy root touch-up products to conceal your color problems.

While most root touch-up products are aerosols that wash out during your next shampoo, some are designed to last for weeks, like the Madison Reed Root Touch Up Kit. With a thin nozzle for easy application and great colour matching we were impressed with this cover up. Pravana ChromaSilk Vivids doesn't require any developer, so it's easy to use, and the formula is packed with hydrolyzed wheat protein and silk so hair feels manageable.

Infused with biotin, pearl extract, and mica, it’ll keep your color shiny while strengthening your hair—a double win. They are also free from over 60 other ingredients which are commonly found in other hair care products.

The powder touch up, which is available in two shades of blonde, comes in a clear container, with the powder at the bottom and the brush at the top. The powder application of the Charles Worthington Instant root concealer powder settled on our hair quickly with no fuss and we didn’t have to wait for it to dry. One of the most convenient ways to maintain your hair colour between salon visits, the Color Wow Root Cover Up range simplifies the art of masking unwanted root growth. A simple spray along our roots was all it took to cover up our three-month-old roots and even got rid of any stray greys too. Water-resistant formula lasts from shampoo to shampoo, but stays put when you sleep, sweat, or swim.It’ll deliver impeccable gray coverage while using an anti-transfer technology to provide zero movement or transfers onto your skin or clothing. The spray, which contains make up pigments, dried within minutes and covered our roots well – giving them a natural and authentic colour. The spray, which has three colours, comes in the normal cans, and as well as giving our hair some volume with its dry shampoo, when we sprayed it on to the root it also coated them with a light colour. Touting rice starch and a UV absorber on its ingredient list, it’ll help keep color from fading while pulling double duty as a dry shampoo.

A quick spritz of this spray instantly conceals re-growth, covers grays, and keeps your hair looking fresh. It's also important that you assess how different your dyed hair color may be from your natural one, which can determine the best type of product to use on your hair altogether.

Offering three different shades in portable compacts, touching up your hair on the go has never been more effortless. If you have a lot of grays or want heavier coverage that lasts, go with a semi-permanent root touch-up versus a wash-out option. This comprehensive kit contains a hair color cream, activator, cleansing wipe, hair mask, and reusable application bowl and brush, and there are two applications per kit, making it a great value. The cruelty free product has the consistency of a blusher, while we loved the sparkle that the colour left. Ingredients: Ethanolamine, peroxide, keratin, argan oil, ginseng root extract | Shades: 8 | Size: 0.
