With the at home lock down we are all looking a little bit more like our “true selves”. Longer hair, gray roots, natural nails and less makeup. I set out to find the best options for gray hair coverage and came up with 2 5-star choices.
Temporary Root Coverage
I have tried many options and by far my favorite is EVERPRO Gray Away. It’s a 5 star to me and the reviews match my experience. I like it because it’s easy to use, comes in a little travel container, covers well, offers various color ways, washes out easily and does not leave your hair with a strange tacky or stiff feeling. I find that the magnetic powder pigment is multi-dimensional so finding a perfect match is not as big a concern as other sprays and powders. I also have noticed it will last a few days without touch up needed and does not stain clothing or linens. I should not that Gray Away comes also come sin a spray and stick form but I have not tried those.
GRAY AWAY root touch-up magnetic powder is an instant solution to get rid of those unwanted gray roots. Unique, binding formula attaches along each hair strand like magnets providing the ultimate coverage that stays put all day long.

Permanent Root Touch Up
I tried the L’Oréal Paris Magic Root Rescue 10 minute Root Coloring Kit for the first time. I was a bit trepidatious about the color matching. I’ve colored my hair before so I was less concerned with the process steps. I am happy to say, the color I chose – light brown #6, matched perfectly. I found the kit to be easy to use with clear directions and all the components needed. (including plastic gloves). One of the tips in the directions is to leave the solution on for 15 minutes vs 10 if you have stubborn grays and that helped me to get more coverage. I found the company claims below to be true. I give this item 5 stars.
