L'Oreal Paris Magic Root Cover Up Gray Concealer Spray (Dark Brown,2oz)

NOT recommended.

I suffer from chemo related hair loss and this product is a lifesaver for my hairline to work with my wig topper. The color is perfect and colors my white roots completely.

When this product first came out, I was so thrilled. I had been using a pressed compact powder from the US called DERMABLEND which was the only hairline makeup coverup around many years ago. Before that, I used eyeshadows as I had to get creative since there was no one except Toppik making hair coverups and one company from the 80s. When this came out, I tolerated the slight overspray that occurs which can be messy but easily cleaned. The coloring is not permanent so does not stain you. I use the darkest brown shade and my hair color fluctuates between dark brown to dark reds. I never tried the red tones so far. PROS: covers up quickly and fast. Colors are basic and you can make it work for the most part. Easy to travel with. It really works and has given me a more natural hairline as a woman dealing with a see-through scalp. CONS: -smells of chemicals when first sprayed on, not a repulsive scent as I am very sensitive, however, you have to spray a fragrance on your hair like an eau de toilette bath and body, if you are in close proximity of others and don't want attention to your hair for the scent. It dissipates soon after. i am not sure if someone comes close enough if they still smell it in your hair after hours of wear. -The price is getting a little high now at $13.99 plus taxes for 1/3 of what other leading brands are offering. It should be more budget-friendly considering you need 1 bottle per week if you use it every day. The quantity is minimal, although the size is discreet for the purse or travel. The price needs to reflect the popularity of the product, and the frequency of usage for the minimal qty they offer. Perhaps two sizes would be great. The travel size priced at $5.99, (current size offered), and a large hairspray bottle size at $15.99 would be fair as a 1-3 month usage. You know everyone would buy the large size for at home use, plus the travel size (what you currently offer). -I dislike the way if feels on the scalp after a whole day. It mixes with oils on your scalp almost like a wax. If you run your fingers through the area you sprayed, it gets under the nails and is harder to clean. -I dislike the matt look which is too matt and draws attention to the area. Hair has some sheen always. The idea is not to draw attention to the area. -It feels waxy to the touch. I wish it would dry and could be brushed out like other hair coloring sprays and making it even more natural. This behaves like a hairspray once on, you don't want to mess around with it. Maybe over time, they will improve the formula so that it is more dry product than filler or carrier. Suggestions: create a larger spray for home use and use the current size for travel. Modify pricing of the travel size to reflect selling a larger product for home use. Improve formula to be dryer less matt, and keep it always fragrance-free.

Cubre muy bien las canas, aunque debes utilizar suficiente producto. Si pones poco también te da una tonalidad muy bonita de la cana. Para mí estuvo muy bien.

The real product is excellent, but I don't know if what is bought here is real, as I purchased 4, and have tried 2. One is completely useless, just spraying white stuff. The second is better, but only about 3/4 of it is spraying brown. Normally when I purchase, the entire spray is brown. Am adding this comment a couple months later now...I just opened the fourth of 4 bottles I purchased from this vendor. It is spraying glops all over the place. This means that 2 of the 4 I purchased from this vendor appear significantly defective. In over 15 years of my buying this usually most excellent product, I've never had a single defective bottle. Just saying, do the math. I have also never seen one of these individually wrapped the way these are...they usually come in pairs (except from a store, of course). From now on, I'm going to stick to only buying the doubles, as they've always been perfect. I'd rather spend an extra buck and have good quality.

LOVE IT I KEEP I FOR INBETWEEN TOUCH UPS AND IT WORKS GREAT JUST GO EASY WHEN YOU FIRST SPRAY AND COVER YOURSELF WITHA TOWEL AS IT DOES OVER SPRAY AND HARD TO GET OFF CLOTHING
