    It works

    If you need it, you need it. It will cover the grays, and your scalp. It's good for between coloring, and it stays on there! Unfortunately I need it frequently! It can be hard to wash out, and it will leave a smudge on your pillow or hat. I have dark brown hair with very white whites.

    Horrible! Don't waste your money!

    I bought this as a quick fix before I had my color hair appointment (one of the red colors). It was disgusting! The spray leaves your hair worse than straw, to the point you can't even run a brush through it. If you use your fingers to try to cover strands of hair, it turns your fingers and nail beds black and even with soap and water it's hard to get clean. You must be very precise by your ears or they'll also turn black. I couldn't wait to shower and shampoo this garbage out of my hair. It took two latherings to get it all out (hopefully) and in the process my hands and arms turned black from the water running down them. Luckily I found this all out on a trial run and not right before I was going out somewhere. You'd think with the L'Oreal product name on it, it would be much better. If I could have given it no stars, I would have. Don't waste your money or your hair on this product.

    Beware of spray

    Be careful with this product. The nozzle shot all the black dye everywhere. It ruined a white shirt and was all over my vanity. I had given it another chance thinking maybe it was a faulty can but nope… it happened again. Sad because I wanted to like it.

    The “red” comes out dark brown. And if you touch your hair, the dye comes off and stains your hand.

    This is an awful product! The coverage is okay. Down sides are it looks matte on my shiny hair, rubs off if you touch your hair, and leaves my hair weighed down with an icky waxy film. Good idea but horrible execution.

    Awful stuff

    Cbrantley - 1 month ago
    originally posted on lorealparisusa.com
    I bought the touch up spray so excited to be able to extend my salon appointment. This stuff is awful. Its supposed to be light blonde but sprayed out orange into my hair. And I cannot get it out! I’ve been washing and washing my hair and cannot get the nasty residue out of my hair. I even got desperate and tried dawn dish soap. It WILL NOT COME OUT. My hair just has this awful sticky feeling from it that nothing seems to fix. I’m so frustrated.

    I use it to lighten all hair. Spray a light coat of Light Blonde all over head.. pref after washing hair. Let dry. Put on a light coat of Brylcreem. Comb out. Something in the Brylcreem seems to activate your product. All my hair becomes lighter. Love it.

    Pros: Covers well, color is good Cons: sticky, rubs off on hands, clothes, hats, and really bad if you get wet in the rain as the color will run off into your face! I would use it only and only if I am in a pinch and don't have time to dye the roots. And I would make sure I don't touch my hair.

    don't recommend this at all. especially if you want to make your parents mad. first of all it left your hair in a knot, left it feeling very gross and dry like the sahara desert. my hair feels like it's going to fall out. my hair is blonde and i got the black and it left it very very streaky and didn't cover as well. IT ALSO TAKES WEEKS TO COME OUT. i've tried to wash it with dawn dish soap many times and it doesn't help. i've also tried shampooing many many of times and it didn't help.
