FAQs

How long does Clairol Root Touch-Up Blue last?

This is a permanent hair dye, meaning the blue color will not wash out. It will last until your natural hair grows out and you see new root regrowth, typically requiring reapplication every 4-6 weeks.

Can I use this product on my entire head of hair?

No, the Clairol Root Touch-Up kit (30ml) is specifically designed and proportioned for root regrowth only. It is not intended for full head coloring.

Do I need to do a patch test every time I color?

Yes, absolutely. A skin allergy patch test must be performed 48 hours before *each and every* application, even if you have used hair dye before, to check for potential allergic reactions.

Is this product suitable for all hair types?

Yes, it is generally suitable for all hair types. However, the final blue color result can vary based on your hair's current condition, porosity, and any previous treatments. A strand test is highly recommended.

What should I do if the blue color turns out differently than expected?

Results can be influenced by existing hair color, processing time, and hair condition. Always perform a strand test on a hidden section of hair before full application to preview the color and adjust development time if necessary. If results are unexpected, you may need to consult a professional colorist.

What's included in the Clairol Root Touch-Up kit?

Info needed: The kit typically includes a color cream, a developer lotion, mixing tray, applicator brush, and gloves. Always check the packaging for exact contents.

Troubleshooting

Color did not match my existing blue hair.

A strand test is crucial for matching. If the color doesn't match, it could be due to variations in your existing color, application time, or hair porosity. In the future, always perform a strand test to determine precise timing for your hair.

I experienced skin irritation or an allergic reaction.

Immediately rinse the product off your skin and hair with water. Discontinue use. A skin allergy patch test must be performed 48 hours before *every* application. If a reaction occurs during the patch test, do not use the product. Consult a medical professional if irritation persists.

The root coverage is uneven or patchy.

Ensure the product is mixed thoroughly and applied evenly and saturated to all root areas. Work in small sections. If this occurs, it might be due to rushing the application or not fully coating all strands.

My skin was stained after use.

To prevent staining, apply a barrier cream or petroleum jelly to your hairline, ears, and neck before applying the dye. If staining occurs, gently wipe the area immediately with a damp cloth or a specialized dye remover (if available and safe for skin).

The color faded too quickly.

While permanent, color can fade due to factors like frequent washing, harsh shampoos, hot water, or excessive sun exposure. Use color-safe products, wash with cooler water, and consider UV protection for your hair.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This section guides you through preparing for your root touch-up, understanding its compatibility, and maintaining your colored hair.

Setup Instructions

  1. Read All Instructions: Before beginning, thoroughly read the entire instruction leaflet included in your kit.
  2. Perform a Patch Test: 48 hours before each application, conduct a skin allergy patch test. Apply a small amount of mixed product to a discreet area (e.g., behind the ear or inner elbow). Check for any reaction. Do not proceed if irritation occurs.
  3. Perform a Strand Test (Recommended): For best color results, particularly with blue shades, apply the mixed color to a small, hidden section of root hair. Observe the color development over the recommended time to ensure you achieve your desired blue hue.
  4. Gather Supplies: Protect your clothes with an old towel. Wear the gloves provided in the kit. Have a timer ready.
  5. Mix Product: Following the kit's directions, combine the colorant and developer in the provided mixing tray or bottle. Mix until thoroughly blended.

Compatibility

  • Existing Hair Color: This product is designed to be compatible with previously permanently colored hair, providing a seamless blend with your existing blue shade.
  • Hair Type: Generally suitable for all hair types (straight, wavy, curly, coily). However, hair porosity and condition can affect the final color result and how evenly it takes.
  • Age Group: Intended for adult use.

Product Care & Maintenance

  • Post-Coloring: After rinsing and shampooing, use a color-safe conditioner to help seal the cuticle and lock in the blue color.
  • Washing: Wash your hair with color-safe shampoos and conditioners. Avoid excessively hot water, as it can strip color faster.
  • Frequency: Apply the root touch-up every 4-6 weeks, or as needed, when root regrowth becomes noticeable.
  • Avoid Harsh Products: Limit the use of clarifying shampoos, harsh styling products, or excessive heat styling, as these can fade your blue color over time.
  • Sun Protection: Prolonged sun exposure can cause color fading. Consider using UV protection hair sprays or wearing hats.
