Clairol Root Touch-Up by Nice'n Easy 8.5A Medium Ash Blonde is a permanent at-home root color kit that delivers 100% gray coverage and seamless blending with salon shades in as little as 10 minutes.

If your regrowth shows between salon visits or you want a quick, professional-looking refresh, this single-pack permanent root touch-up is designed to cover roots and grays fast. The formula is matched to leading salon shades and uses ColorBlend Technology to blend regrowth into your existing color so results look natural from root to tip. The kit includes salon-inspired tools—a brush, bowl, gloves and easy instructions—so you can mix, apply and rinse with confidence.

How quickly will this product cover my roots and grays?

Clairol Root Touch-Up works on a fast schedule: most roots and grays are fully covered after a 10-minute processing time. For particularly resistant gray strands, allowing up to 15 minutes can ensure deeper penetration and even tone. Always follow the included instructions for safe use.

• Standard processing: 10 minutes
• Stubborn or resistant grays: up to 15 minutes
• Includes pre-measured color cream and activator for consistent mixing

Will the color match my salon-dyed hair?

The Medium Ash Blonde (8.5A) shade is formulated to match popular salon shades and retail permanent colors, giving a blended, natural appearance when applied correctly. ColorBlend Technology helps the root area harmonize with previously colored hair so the touch-up is less noticeable and more seamless.

• Shade: 8.5A Medium Ash Blonde—cool, neutral blonde tone
• ColorBlend Technology creates smooth transitions from root to ends
• Designed to work with salon-colored or at-home color bases

How easy is the application process at home?

The kit uses a simple mix, brush and dry process so you can touch up roots without a salon appointment. A small bowl and precision brush let you target only the regrowth area for controlled coverage and minimal product waste. The included gloves and step-by-step leaflet guide you safely through the process.

• Mix tube 1 (color cream) with bottle 2 (activator) in the bowl
• Use the angled brush to apply color directly to roots only
• Rinse, condition and style after the recommended processing time

Is this suitable for different hair types and textures?

The permanent cream formula works across a range of hair textures and porosities, providing durable coverage for regrowth and gray strands. Results can vary by hair history and previous dye jobs; performing a 48-hour strand/allergy test and a strand swatch helps predict tone and coverage before full application.

• Effective on fine, medium and coarse hair textures
• Always perform a strand test 48 hours before full use
• For best results match to your existing color level and tone

Who is this for: This kit is ideal for anyone who wants a quick, professional-looking solution to visible roots and gray regrowth without a salon visit. It suits people who already color their hair and need an efficient touch-up between appointments, those aiming to maintain a specific salon shade, or first-time at-home colorists seeking precise root application. Not recommended for use on eyelashes or eyebrows; follow label safety guidance and allergy warnings before use.
