FAQs
How long does L'Oréal Paris Magic Retouch last?
The color from L'Oréal Paris Magic Retouch lasts until your next shampoo. It is designed as a temporary solution for instant root touch-ups.
Can I use it on wet hair?
No, for the best results and even coverage, you should apply the spray only to *dry hair*.
Will it stain my clothes or pillow?
Once completely dry, the product is designed not to transfer. However, it's advisable to protect your clothing during application and ensure your hair is fully dry before it comes into contact with fabrics, especially light-colored ones.
How often can I use this spray?
You can use L'Oréal Paris Magic Retouch as often as needed between washes to cover roots or grey hair. It is safe for regular use.
What should I do if I get it on my skin?
If you accidentally get some spray on your skin, simply wipe it off immediately with a damp cloth or a makeup remover wipe before it has a chance to dry.
Is this product a permanent hair dye?
No, L'Oréal Paris Magic Retouch is not a permanent hair dye. It is a temporary cosmetic root concealer that washes out with shampoo and does not alter your hair's natural color permanently.
Can men use this product?
While the product is often marketed towards women, anyone with roots or grey hairs that need temporary coverage can use this product, provided the Beige shade matches their hair color effectively.
Troubleshooting
Color appears uneven or streaky after application
Ensure you shake the can well before each use and spray from the recommended distance (10-15 cm) in a light, even motion. Avoid concentrating too much product in one spot.
Hair feels stiff or sticky after application
This usually indicates applying too much product. Use a lighter hand and build up coverage in thin layers if necessary. The formula is designed to be lightweight, so a small amount is often sufficient.
Product doesn't fully cover grey hairs or roots
Ensure direct and precise application to the grey areas. For stubborn greys, a second, very light layer can be applied after the first has dried completely, but be careful not to overdo it.
Color rubs off onto clothes or pillow
Always allow the spray ample time to dry completely after application. While it dries quickly, residual dampness might transfer. Avoid touching hair unnecessarily after application, especially with light-colored fabrics.
The shade doesn't quite match my hair color
This product comes in various shades. If the Beige shade isn't a perfect match, consider trying a different variant of Magic Retouch that might blend more seamlessly with your natural hair color. Always patch test on a small, less visible area first.
