CHOOSING THE COLOR: Select a root touch-up stick that matches your hair color closely. Many brands offer a range of shades to accommodate different hair colors. Remember don’t go for something over the top.

APPLYING THE ROOT TOUCH-UP STICK: Make use of gentle, short strokes, and apply the stick directly to the areas where you want to cover the grays or regrowth. Focus on the roots or visible areas that need a touch-up.
BLENDING THE COLOR: After applying the root touch-up stick, use your fingertips or a clean, soft brush to blend the color into your hair. Gently pat and blend the product to ensure a natural-looking finish. Avoid rubbing the color vigorously, as it may remove the product or create an uneven application.
STYLING AS DESIRED: Once you’ve blended the color, you can style your hair as usual. You can use a comb or brush to further distribute the color and blend it seamlessly into your hair.
SETTING THE COLOR: If you want to enhance the longevity of the root touch-up, you can use a lightweight hairspray to set the color. Lightly mist the hairspray over the treated areas, holding the can at a distance to avoid oversaturation.
