Affordable Root Touch-up Sprays
Currently the UK is in full lockdown and I have seen a number people on social media attempting to dye their hair with store bought hair dyes. Whilst this gives a very short term relief of having those stretched roots, or an extra few grey hairs showing, the long term effect on not only your hair but also your wallet is damaging. Whilst it may seem like a cheap solution right now, may end up being an expensive colour correction process once hair salons are back in business.
Whilst this is no blog about what you shouldn’t or should do, I want to share some cost-effective products that will help cover those pesky roots and leave you feeling more confident!
These root touch up products do a pretty decent job of concealing your grown out roots and seeing you through the coronavirus lockdown! Let’s have a look at the best affordable root touch up hair products on the market right now.
