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

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.

While this product is amazing I've had one chill for about 13 years but when I ordered this one the color was wrong it had a red hue which would not seem to me at all so just to be careful with this if the color was correct I highly recommend this product

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.

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 was looking forward to trying this as I had read all of the reviews. My hair could have done with dyeing as I have so much grey I have to do it every two weeks. I didn't have any dye in the house so gave this a go after washing my hair. Although I couldn't access the back of my head, I did the crown of my head as best I could with a mirror. I am at work today and I have to say I am pretty pleased with the results. Nothing beats dyeing but this will keep me going for another week and, for me, it is better than similar products I have tried. I got it in medium brown and will definitely buy it again.

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 had my doubts when I ordered this, as it was quite expensive if it didn't work, but its great. I have had it for over a year now and still have loads left! I tend to get my hair coloured about every 5 weeks, so by week 3 or so I am conscious of the grey showing through. I took other users advice and I put it on my hair while it is wet, before drying it and it does the job nicely. (I had been using mascara or eye shadow!!) The only downside is that it makes your hair a little tacky, and I feel it needs washing a bit more, but its much better than being the silver fox!

My wife's been using this product for years. She says it works great on colouring the roots between hairdresser appointments.

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.

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!!

Muy buen producto
