Roux Tween Time Instant Root Concealer Stick - Medium Brown For Unisex 0.28 oz Concealer

I have tried a hair mascara in the past to cover my grey but this product wins hands down. It is like a thick crayon. At first I just tried it on my hand and there was hardly any colour but then I read the instructions which said to wet it, it then works brilliantly. It's not messy I don't notice any smell as one reviewer said. It goes on well and quickly. The only thing I disagree with is that it comes out when you wash your hair, I find it is out by the next day but does last the whole day. I would highly recommend this product and I will certainly be buying it again but I think that will be a while off as it will last a long time I think. I would have normally recoloured my hair by now but it will last another week using this crayon.

Like others my roots show through too soon between hairdressing appointments. I have tried a few cover-up products but this is by far the best. I have found it is most effective and easiest to use immediately after washing my hair. After towel drying hair I comb my hair and flatten the parting area. I then dip the crayon in water and work away from the parting. The tapered chisel end is perfect for this and its shape has been maintained. This method is quick and effective. The product smells ok and does not feel sticky although the hair feels a bit stiffer. I bought the light shade too in case I needed to blend the colour but I was lucky the medium matched perfectly. The crayon is going to last. The colour washes out but does not budge between washes. If you need cover up buy this product.

As any woman who colours her hair knows, when you start colouring your hair, you are on a treadmill which you can't get off. My hair grows very quickly and my roots are showing quite clearly within 2 weeks. I hate this and feel it looks really tacky. But at the same time, I don't have the time to colour my hair as often as this. As a result I found this product very useful indeed. It is a thick crayon which looks a bit like a lipstick. You simply dip it in water and then apply to your roots. It covers your roots up very effectively. Your hair does feel a bit tacky but looks perfectly okay. It comes out the next time you wash your hair. One minor flaw is that when the sun was shining on my hair making it look lighter, the roots that I had touched up looked darker than the rest of my hair. In normal indoor lighting my hair and roots looked the same colour. This is just a minor fault and I am sure that no-one else would notice. I would buy this product again. Overall I found it very handy.

I bought this root touch up after being really impressed with a similar product by Cover Your Gray in dark brown. Having taken the plunge and decided to stop colouring my hair after at least 15 years I used the Cover Your Gray to simply tone down the root regrowth and found it very effective but a little dark in colour. I hoped that Roux Tween-Time in medium brown would be just the job, but I was WRONG! This stick is less like a lipstick and more like a solid lump of crayon and its easy to see that it wouldn't take much use before the whole thing broke off the base, leaving you with a terrible mess on your hands (and the carpet). The texture of this stick is also much harder and therefore much more difficult to get any of it to actually go onto the hair. I have read other reviews of these sort of products which suggest that wetting the crayon first improves coverage, but that brings me on to my final and possibly greatest issue with this crayon...and that is the smell. It smells SO STRONG! The smell reminds me of the old fashioned Brylcream hair products, except that it is about a hundred times stronger and it doesn't go away. Even if I could've got this product to stay on my hair there is no way on earth I could bear to walk around with such an overpowering smell following me about. It's in the bin now and I'm back to the Cover Your Gray, which I think is a pretty useful product for those either growing out their grey like me, or for those still committed to colouring who just want to extend the period between treatments.

I wanted this to touch up the grey hair between dying it. I only have a splattering of grey, and my natural colour is dark brown. Covers ok, but not good enough. And you have to experiment with applying it, as it can be messy.

I read the reviews on this and some were good and some bad. I don't have a lot of grey, just the bit at the side in front of my ears.. I think the secret is to get it really wet, get an old toothbrush and dab it on the toothbrush. If you lift the hair away from your scalp you can get really close to your scalp without touching it and run the toothbrush down the grey bit and it covers really well without overloading it as you really don't need a lot. It's great if you don't have much grey and just want to cover up in between colouring for a quick fix. I think it would work as well on roots but I would apply it from a wet toothbrush making sure you lift the hair up away from your scalp. A little seems to go along way and keep wetting it I love it!

As soon as I took it out of the jiffy bag I was aware of this pungent odour which I found unpleasant. Slightly medicinal with a sweet overtone. I took the lid off thinking I'd leave it to see if the smell diminished but the smell dominated the room so I put the lid back on! I tried a very small amount on the front of my hair and it seemed to work but I just couldn't tolerate the smell. Having said that I don't like perfumed products so other people might find it great..

I would definitely recommend this product. Hides all grey along parting, simple and quick to apply. Best on wet hair and wet the product to apply, then dry hair as normal. You can feel it slightly on the hair but it does not look sticky. And then just washes out! Good value and could save you a lot of money as trips to the hairdressers need not be quite so frequent.

Consigliatissimo. Copre perfettamente i capelli bianchi, nascondendo la ricrescita. Facile da mettere, non si macchia la cute, a differenza degli spray di altre marche. Profuma leggermente e dura tantissimo !

Je suis contente d'avoir acheté ce produit car il me rend bien service. La couleur est conforme et se fond bien au reste de la chevelure. Facile à manier, ne sent pas mauvais. Tient bien ses promesses.

covers well and easy to apply

Tan sencillo como pintarse los labios, te tapas esas canillas que indiscretamente salen. A pesar de tener una textura de "cera" queda muy logrado el efecto y puede durar incluso varios dias después de aplicarlo. Larga duración del producto, muy equiparable a una barra de labios, tanto por duración, tamaño y sentido práctico. Fan del producto!!

The Roux 'Tween Time Instant Root Concealer Stick in Medium Brown is a lifesaver! This little stick is perfect for those in-between salon visits when my roots start to show. The color blends seamlessly with my natural hair, and the application is super easy – just a few swipes and my roots are covered. It’s compact and convenient, making it easy to carry in my purse for quick touchups on the go. What I love most is that it stays put until I wash it out, so I don’t have to worry about any smudging or fading throughout the day. This product is a must-have for anyone looking to maintain a flawless look between hair colorings. Highly recommend!
