    I liked that it was easy to apply, and quicker than a regular color. I just wished that they would sell two single use root color kits per box for almost the same price (we could keep the applicator). Overall, very satisfied of the performance and ease of use of this product!

    How was your overall experience with using this product (gray coverage, ease of use, colour matching, length of time needed, how your hair looks/feels after application, etc.)? Colour matching for this product was phenomenal. I couldn't believe the seamless blend between the previous dye job and my roots after using it. However, I did notice that the greys weren't as covered as completely as I have experienced with other brands. So even though the transition from old dye to new root coverage was seamless, my greys were still quite visible. They're not grey anymore, more of a light reddy brown (instead of dark brown like the rest of my hair). How does this product compare to other home hair colours (including root-targeted products) you've used in the past (if applicable)? I liked the built in brush tool a lot. Other root coverage products I've used in the past were quite difficult to use on my own - using a brush and a little container full of the dye. I usually end up glopping dye on my countertop or shoulder or somewhere else that it's not supposed to be. Having everything together in one neat package made it much easier to manage on my own. The plastic that the brush part could be a bit softer though. Colour matching with this product is far better than any other I've used in the past, but the grey coverage wasn't perfect (better than some that I've used, but not as good as others). Would you buy this product again and/or recommend it to a friend? I would probably buy this product again with a coupon, but I don't know if I'd buy it full price. I'd probably mention it to a friend because of the design of the tool rather than the effectiveness of the dye.

    Compared to most products on the shelf I've used, I really liked Loreal's Root Rescue. The applicator was user friendly and easy for me to reach every spot necessary. It is usually a mess coloring my hair, but this one left me with little clean up (which I always love!) I was hesitant on whether I had the right color, but the color chart actually helped! I washed it off in about 8 minutes and the results were still pretty good. Probably not comparable to the treatment you get in the salon, but good enough for the price. I would definately reccomend this product.

    I did like the new product. It was a nice shade and had great coverage. I will not let my roots grow as long next time but overall I was quite happy with this product. I highly recommend it.

    My overall experience with Root Rescue was fantastic. It covered the gray very well, without having to use a whole hair dye. It was very easy and simple to use. The hair after application felt smooth and was a good colour, which matched my natural hair colour. I would definitely buy this product again and recommend it to family and friends!!

    This covered my greyish roots completely, and left no telltale marks (no drips, matched my hair colour), as well as leaving my hair in really great condition. I've tried the other brand of root touch-up and was quite dissappointed, but Root Rescue definately lives up to its name. I will definately be buying Root Rescue to use again. Thank you Chick Advisor for the opportunity to test this fantastic product

    I really liked the applicator, made it easy to get to the fine hairs along my hairline that seem to get missed. I wish I could use the hair colour more than once though as I didn't need all the colour to touch up my roots, would be nice if it came in a tube that could be stored.

    I got the L'oreal Root Rescue in colour 3, soft black. My hair is naturally pretty dark, but I still colour it to be a little darker and more vibrant than my natural colour. I usually go to the salon twice a year, and in between use an at home no-ammonia hair colour to hold me over until my next salon visit. This kit has an awesome brush applicator that really does make it simple and easy to use. You might need to blend in the colour with your fingers, but the applicator makes it so much easier, distributes colour more evenly, and you can use it to brush the dye through your hair so it doesn't just coat the top. It's also a lot less messy! I really like that it only takes 10 minutes because it's quick and easy. The one thing I wish this product had though was no ammonia. Yes, it is LOW ammonia, but when I am only dying a section of my hair I`d prefer to use no ammonia-since it is only a temporary fix anyways until my next salon visit, and using permenant colour on sections of your hair at home can really end up messing it up for the colourist later on. I realize it has to have some in it though so that it can cover greys and lighthen/darken enough for people going a little more out of their natural shade range than I do, but I am really picky about what I use on my hair as it`s very fine and fragile and therefor prone to breakage. I recieved this for the product review club and therefor did not pay, but I checked the price online. I think it should be a little bit cheaper since it is only a small amount compared to a regular box of dye, and it doesn't come with any conditioner, but still not a terrible price overall. One of my favourite things about colouring my hair at home is the conditioner they give you, and you don't get any with this. Overall, the colour turned out really nice and natural and did blend nicely with my hair. It was quick and easy and a good choice for those who need to touch up their roots more often than I do (people with more noticable re-growth probably need to do this at least 2-3 times more often than I do) and don't want to spend the time/money on extra salon visits or 35 minute messy at home sessions.Good product by a great company, I love L'oreal!

    This product worked very well!!!! I cannot lie though...without being offered to try the product, there is no way I would have spent the money on it. Just seems like it's too good to be true! I was shocked though..worked fast...matched perfectly!!! I'm just praying it doesn't wash out different then my other dye!!!
