Color Wow Root Touch Up

Got a very nice response saying they are still formulating their red shades for the root cover up. Said working with reds can be very challenging. Suggested I look into one of the browns.

I've used Clairol's "Root Touch-Up" for many years... they have a wide color and shade collection, plus it really works the best.

But also using an easy temporary hair color stick (just wet the tip & stroke on) like Roux's "Tween Time" on my hairline also helps.

I have been using Tween Time Color Stick for the last 20 years, one stick lasts me for years, and the auburn shade works well for me.

I swear by the Clairol's Root Touch Up, too. Is the WOW product a powder?

Yes, a brush on powder.

Fellow redhead here and I couldn't agree more. As for suggestions to use Clairol Root Touch-up, there IS NOT a red shade! Both Clairol and L'Oreal come in Light Auburn and they are simply too dark. I tried Joan Rivers' hair powder in auburn and it went on dark brown. Very frustrating!

You should use Google more often, as I just found "Johnathan Product Awake Color Root Touch Up" in RED at Target online, Amazon, & elsewhere. It's a powder, if that works for you.

You could also just use some of your regular red hair color, and then tightly seal the leftovers and store 'em for your next root touch up.

I found this to true with Joan Rivers' product. Then again it is suppose to fill in the scalp under thinning hair.

I love WOW. It clings to hair as opposed to your scalp. It does not fill in my part.
