FAQs
How long does L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Root Touch Up last?
The color is temporary and designed to last until your next shampoo. It washes out completely with one wash.
Is this product waterproof or sweat-proof?
While it is designed to be transfer-resistant once dry, it is not fully waterproof or sweat-proof. Heavy rain or intense sweating may cause it to run or smudge.
Can I use this on a beard or eyebrows?
This product is specifically designed for hair on the scalp. We do not recommend using it on beards, eyebrows, or other facial hair, as it may not be suitable for those areas and could cause irritation.
How do I remove the product from my hair?
Simply wash your hair with your regular shampoo. The temporary formula is designed to be easily removed with one wash.
Will it damage my hair or scalp?
No, the L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch is ammonia-free and formulated to be gentle on your hair and scalp. It does not cause damage when used as directed.
How many applications can I expect from one 75ml can?
Info needed: The number of applications varies significantly depending on the amount of grey coverage needed, the length of the roots, and the frequency of use. Typically, one can provides several applications for targeted root touch-ups.
How do I choose the correct shade of brown?
Select the shade that most closely matches your natural hair color or your dyed hair color. When in doubt, it's often better to choose a slightly lighter shade and build up coverage rather than one that is too dark.
Troubleshooting
Uneven or blotchy application.
Ensure you shake the can vigorously before each use. Hold the can at the recommended distance (10-15 cm) and apply in light, short bursts, moving the can slightly to cover the area evenly.
Product getting on skin or clothes.
Always protect your face, forehead, and clothing with your hand or a towel during application. If product gets on skin, wipe it off immediately with a damp cloth or a makeup remover wipe. For clothes, treat as a normal stain.
Hair feels stiff or unnatural after application.
You may be applying too much product. Try using less spray and from a slightly further distance. Ensure the product has fully dried before touching or styling your hair. Lightly brush through once dry to soften the feel.
Color does not blend well with existing hair.
Ensure you have selected the closest possible shade of brown to your hair color. Apply sparingly and build up coverage if needed. For best blending, spray at the roots and gently diffuse the product towards the rest of your hair with your fingertips or a comb.
Product transfers to pillows or clothing.
Allow the product to dry completely after application. Avoid touching your hair frequently, especially when newly applied. For nighttime, consider covering your pillow with a towel as an extra precaution, though the product is designed to be transfer-resistant once dry.
