It Does the Job!

I received the SCHWARZKOPF ROOT RETOUCHER in the dark brown shade from ChickAdvisor to try for free in exchange for my honest opinion and I really enjoyed the results. I have naturally mousy brown hair and have been dyeing it dark since I have had my own money and was able to get it done. As anyone ...who dyes their hair knows, that %$#! is expensive and the upkeep is demanding! I usually go get a root touch up every 4 weeks on average which usually runs me about $100 bucks each time. I have seen root touch up products in stores before, but oddly enough, have never purchased them! Well, thanks to ChickAdvisor.. that all changed! The salon I get my hair done at actually uses Schwarzkopf dye so I was happy that the product was a salon trusted brand and was a good quality product. The Root Re-toucher is a new product by them which claims to easily disguise your natural hair color in seconds. It claims to 100% cover light and grey regrowth in an instant and washes out after one shampoo! My thoughts? well... I used it three days before my regular 5 week root touch up - so my roots were BAD. First I wanted to read the directions but I couldn't find them anywhere on the bottle?! I don't know if I am blind or if they weren't there but either way I managed.. I did notice it said 'shake well' on the can so I made sure to do that and then I sprayed away! It has a smaller applicator that is good for precision spraying which I really liked. It was easy to spray on without error or wasting product in places that did not require any color. At first when I sprayed I was a little baffled at how little coverage it gave but then I realized that as the product sits it actually blends more and does a great job of covering the light areas. Again, I wish this would have been on the bottle as I feel like I wasted product by excessively trying to cover my regrowth. After about 3 minutes my roots were much darker and you could hardly tell the difference. My hair is DARK brown and I almost wish I would have chosen the black color to try instead of the dark brown. The color matched good, but it was not a perfect match. In certain lighting and upon examining up close you can still see the shade difference. The product is also a little bit messy so be careful about wearing light colored clothes when applying. I managed to get this all over the sink and bathroom counter (It came off easy right away!) and all over my forehead... oops. I mentioned before that the slim applicator was awesome, and it is! It's the after drips that get everywhere and make the mess. The product is not yet available in Canadian stores so I can't say whether or not the price on this product is worth it. I would probably pay around $15 max for this product as I feel like you won't get the 25 uses it claims. It does a great job of covering light/grey roots and is extremely easy to use. It washes out easily and does not irritate the scalp. Other then being slightly messy and the color not matching 100% I feel like this is a fantastic product for root touch ups in-between salon appointments and I will most likely purchase this in the future. If you have root problems and don't like spending the money every 3 weeks to get a touch up, this is a great option for you! But be careful, its messy!
