15 Best Hair Root Touch Up Products – 2018
Don’t you love that excitement you feel right after coloring your hair? The sky seems clearer, the world seems brighter, and life generally feels happier right after you’ve undergone that hair transformation that you’d been looking forward to for so long. But dark clouds are up ahead and they will send you running back to the salon in a just a few weeks’ time. Yes, I’m talking about root touch ups. As your hair starts to grow out, your roots will (quite obviously) be the color of your natural hair color, which will (again, obviously) ruin your hair look.
Now, before you start freaking out about how much money you’ll have to spend on root touch appointments every few weeks, just hear me out. There are tons of drugstore products out there that you can use in this situation. These root touch up products do a pretty decent job of concealing your grown out roots and extending the time periods between each salon appointment. That means you save more money!
