Try a Root Touch-Up Spray
There are special products designed to temporarily cover up root regrowth. Root touch-up sprays come in a variety of shades and let you quickly refresh your roots until your next dye job. Many options are available locally, so you can find the perfect match for your hair color. Just be sure to follow the instructions carefully for the best results.
Part Your Hair on the Side
Switching to a side part draws attention away from the center of your head, making roots less noticeable. When your hair is freshly colored again, you can easily go back to your usual part. Another great idea is to wear your hair in loose braids, ponytails, or updos styled to hide roots better than simply wearing it down.
Opt for Highlights
Next time you visit your stylist, ask for some highlights. The mix of shades beautifully distracts from root regrowth. Plus, this little change can help you feel comfortable extending the time between dye jobs, giving your hair a break and keeping it healthier.
Choose an Ombre Style
The ever-popular ombre technique works like highlights by blending colors to divert attention from roots. Combining both can create a longer-lasting, polished look. Just make sure to choose a skilled stylist experienced in ombre styles, and ask to see their previous work to ensure your hair is in great hands.
Use Hair Accessories
Hair accessories do double duty: they add style and cleverly hide roots. Think headbands, scarves, hats, or wraps that can instantly mask regrowth. It’s smart to have a few on hand in neutral colors like black or white that match any outfit effortlessly.
Try a Hair Color Mascara!
If you don’t dye your hair but want to cover a few gray strands occasionally, hair color mascara is your new best friend! It quickly conceals grays, blends naturally, and comes in shades from light blonde to black, so you’re sure to find one that matches your hair perfectly.
