    My overall experience with using L'Oreal Pris (#8 Matches any Medium Blonde) Root Colouring Kit with Built-In Conditioning was very pleasant. The kit was very easy to use: just mix the product, and use the Quick Precision Applicator to colour! The applicator tip made it much easier to apply, and it didn't make a mess either! It only took 15 minutes (for me), because I have some pretty icky grey hairs that don't like to get coloured! After the application, I found my hair feeling very soft and the colour match was pretty dead on! My friend was impressed (she uses a different root touch up product) and said that L'Oreal's Root Rescue totally rocks, in comparison! Would I buy this product again? Yes! Next time I use it, I'll have to leave LESS time in between hair dyes. Recommend it? Yes! ... and so does my friend!

    This product is useless, perhaps the worst colour product I have ever used. I followed the directions exactly and while I found it very easy to mix and apply;, the product itself did not cover my gray, nor blend in with my hair...in fact, it "lightened" my roots significantly and now my gray hair shows up 10X worse then appeared to my applying this product. Complete fail. I would not recommend this product nor will I be using it again, even if it were free.

    I was looking forward to reviewing this product. I had such high hopes as the L'Oreal brand has never failed me yet. But I have to say, it turned out to be quite a disappointment. First, the packaging of the product made it difficult to use. The slim bottle kept wanting to tip over. And because of the packaging, it was difficult to mix the hair dye. I did however like the idea of the comb even though it ended up being more of nuisance than a help. Second, the product itself was runny and a little hard to use even with the comb topper. Third, the hair colour did not match. I selected the dark brown and it came out an orange tinge which i did not want and did not like. Overall, I really wanted to like the product as it looked so easy to use. In reality, it was quite difficult to use due to the bottle and the runny product. All of that would have been okay if it had matched my hair colour. I will have to redye my hair at this point. Unfortunately, I will not be repurchasing and will not be recommending this product.

    I was very excited to be chosen to do this review since I had colored my hair recently with Perfect 10. I usually try to see the positive in the products I test, but I was quite disappointed in this product. L'oreal's Root Rescue claimed many things that I do not believe it lived up to. Firstly, my color did not match at all. I chose 'Dark Brown' (4) which turned out quite redish. Secondly, it claimed 100% grey coverage, but it didn't cover any of mine (I'm about 5% grey). The quick precision applicator was somewhat difficult to use. The one that came with Perfect 10 was much easier. This applicator was soft and bristle like, which made it very hard to part the hair, while the one from Perfect 10 was firm, making it easier to part the hair. Lastly, there was not enough die in the package to do all my roots, however I do have thick hair. I would need 2 bottles next time. Over all, I was quite disappointed in the product, and would not try it again.

    I recieved the kit in dark brown and I loved it. The price is just right, no more paying over $40 for a touch up at a salon. And no more spending a ton of time on touching up roots - This was my first time doing my own hair, so it took me a bit of time to get the product on, but that'll get easier with practice. I was a bit worried that the colour wouldn't be seamless, but it blended in great. The only con is that the applicator it comes with isn't the easiest thing to use. I've already recomended the product to a friend, and will continue to use it myself.

    I was very dissapointed in this product.I requested a number 8 to match medium blond which was suggested to match up to the nutresse color I usually dye my hair with so I expected it would match. The set up was very easy I will say that and they have a spot on the back of the box to punch out a perforation to keep your bottle upright that was different and I thought that was a great touch.You just add your mix to the other bottle shake until well blended then attach the comb attachment.I applied it no problem, the comb attachment worked perfectly spread evenly and just the right amount.It suggested 10 minutes and 15 minutes if you have lots of grey hair.So I opted for 15 minutes as I have a fair amount of grey. After washing out(and most hair dyes always have a shampoo/or conditioner in the box this did not)it said to shampoo.I shampooed but my hair felt really rough so I also used conditioner(I think they should mention to condition as well) I combed my hair out and noticed right away the roots are red!There is still many grey hairs as well.I waited for it to completely dry and the roots do not match my previous color and there is still visible grey hairs. I have used Loreal products before and have always had great results.But this I have to be honest was a big disappointment.I will have to redye my hair so its all matching as the red tone is very noticeable on the roots.I would blame myself for picking this color BUT this was the color suggested on the box to match the Nutresse color that I normally dye with. I wont be buying this product again but Loreal you have a wonderful idea!The packaging is great and convenient!But you need to manage it so that it covers grey/leave the product in longer perhaps?Or have written on the package not to use for grey coverage because you have on your package that it is 100% Grey coverage.I am under 50% gray so I am not completely grey.You also need to balance it so the roots do not go red.Thank you for the opportunity to try this product and to give you my honest opinion.Brenda Brown

    L'Oreal Paris Root Rescue Haircolour is awesome! It was super easy to use and covered greys effectively! It took only 10 minutes and it was ready to rinse out. The colour matched well, my hair looks great! This company has thought of everything. They have a small hole in the back of the box to steady the cream while you are pouring the solution in, and they have included glasses protectors with the gloves! Also the application tip is great, it was so easy to cover my roots with the colour! I would definitely buy this product again and will be telling all of my friends!

    Easy to use overall, and after giving it a lot of time [with a fair number of resistant greys to cover I always give a ton of time], it worked well. I'd buy again! Compared to other products I found the application easier to spread [but I still felt the need to rub it in with my fingers, still no glopping].

    Root Rescue blended well with the colour that I had previously used and it managed to cover the few greys that I now have! It is quick and easy and is by far a cheaper solution than going to the salon to get a touch up. I would recomend thsi produst to anyone who needs their roots done.
