Q: hello, can I reuse it if I do not finish the product, if so, how many days is the gel good for once open, or is it one time use?

submitted by Claudia - 1 year ago
  • A: Hey Claudia, Great question! The Clairol Semi Permanent Root Tough-up color is a one time use. We do not recommend to save the product once you open it. For all your future beauty questions, get real-time answers using the “Chat with a Virtual Beauty Consultant” button, found on every product page.

  • A: It says it may be used multiple times on the front of the box. The directions say to rinse the brush applicator before storing. Leave it on for 50-60 minutes if you’re covering grays. I have dark brown hair, but bought the black shade bc the dark brown color was out of stock at my store. The first time I used it, I followed the directions and saw zero difference in my hair. It did absolutely nothing. After reading some reviews, I decided to try again and left it on for an hour. It worked great!! I have highlights and the precise applicator lets you apply it strictly to the roots so you don’t have to color over the rest of your hair. And it’s semi permanent so it fades naturally and I don’t get fussed at by my hair stylist when I go to get my hair dyed/highlighted at the salon every few months.

I like Clairol products so I thought I’d give this a try. I used it around my temples and hairline. I followed all directions and left it on for 18 minutes. It did absolutely nothing to cover any gray! Very disappointed!

It works well if instructions are followed, I don’t know why so many people are saying it doesn’t. I have very white roots and I applied it on shampooed and towel dried hair, left for 15 min (a bit longer than advised) and rinsed it out. It makes a bit of a mess in the tub/sink/towel but it works, my white hair is now brown. What I didn’t love about it was that it made my scalp darker too so I had to do way more rubbing than I had anticipated (I used a conditioned to rub my scalp) but I guess most semi permanent dyes will do that otherwise it wouldn’t stay on the hair either. I’ll try to avoid my scalp as much as I can next time I use it. This isn’t to replace permanent dye but is a great quick fix if you don’t have much time or to stretch out time between coloring.

Zero gray coverage. I tried this twice. First time I followed the directions and left on for the allotted time. No cuverage of grays. The second time, I left it on for 45-60 minutes. Still no coverage of gray.

Very disappointing results. I have black hair and it did not cover the little bit of gray around my face and hair line at all. I left it on for thirty minutes which was plenty of time. Do not recommend.

I would give this 0 stars if possible- left this on for 20 minutes- rinsed and conditioned as recommended only to towel dry my hair and have the towel turn brown- zero color on hair and a huge mess all over the towel- what a waste of time and money!

There was absolutely zero change when using this product. It did not cover any of the gray roots at my temples. It was as if I had never even used it at all. Do not waste your money on this product.

What the other lady said: you have to follow the directions and do it on wet hair. don’t like is that it’s super red way more red than most of the choices in the same product line, so when you first touch up, it looks a little like you had a painting accident. I get around this by actually washing right after I dye.

I’ve used it several times on my thick hair and I love it! I apply it to dry hair, leave it for 30-40 minutes, rinse out, and style. It’s easy to apply with the brush, no mixing, and no drip. I get 3 applications per tube.

RML - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
This worked for me. It covered my stubborn grays/whites and as a bonus, permanently. With several washings they lightened, but never faded back to gray/white. Now I just do my roots every so often. One thing I noticed: applying on dry hair *doesn’t* work. I’m wondering if this is why there are so many bad reviews. What works for me: Wash with shampoo, then apply, starting with most stubborn spots. Leave on for 25 minutes. Rinse and use conditioner. Don’t use shampoo for at least a full day after. My hair is never dry or damaged from this product, and it’s inexpensive.

I love this product for what it is! I use it at week 2 &4 after I do a permanent hair dye. It's super easy to use! The tips of washing first and applying it to wet hair and then just rinse and don't wash again so extend the color! I get 3 uses out of 1 bottle and mainly just do my part and around my face. FYI: It's not a permanent dye and it's not going to be as effective in covering gray as a permanent dye. It's semi-permanent and will only last 7-10 washes so if you wash daily it won't last 2 weeks.
