Our verdict

A fast, temporary root spray in two brown shades for covering grays between dye jobs. It washes out with shampoo, so touch ups are part of every wash cycle.

Overview

Spraying Magic Root Cover Up over gray roots coats them in matching color within seconds, then a quick comb and dry finishes the touch up. L'Oreal Paris bundles a Light Brown can and a Dark Brown can for blending different brown tones.

Two brown shades let darker roots and lighter lengths be matched more closely than a single can allows. It is a surface color that rinses out, so it covers the gap between dye jobs rather than replacing them.

Who it's for

Brown hair colored with L'Oreal Excellence or Superior Preference gets the closest match here. People wanting coverage that lasts through washing should book a root color instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two browns for blending
  • Covers grays in seconds
  • Oil free, ammonia and peroxide free
  • Non drip, portable cans
Cons
  • Rinses out at the next shampoo
  • Only matches brown shades
  • Aerosol needs careful aim near skin

Performance notes

Pigment coats the outside of the hair strand, so coverage is fast but temporary. Spraying, combing and letting it dry fully sets the color and prevents smudging. Using the lighter can at the hairline and the darker one deeper in helps the blend look natural.
