Clairol Root Touch-Up Temporary Concealing Powder — Black | Ammonia-Free Compact with Brush & Mirror, Instant Gray Coverage

Clairol Root Touch-Up Temporary Concealing Powder in Black instantly covers gray roots and defines brows for a natural, in-between color fix.

Keep your color looking fresh without a full dye—this compact, ammonia-free powder blends into existing black hair to mask regrowth, stray grays, and sparse eyebrow areas in seconds. Designed for quick, targeted use, the powder comes with a small applicator brush and mirror so you can correct your rootline anywhere. It washes out with shampoo, so it’s a temporary solution that avoids long salon visits or overnight dyes.

How fast will this powder hide my gray roots?

The formula is made for immediate results: apply with the included brush and the powder sits on the hair shaft to visually blend gray strands with your natural black shade. You’ll see coverage in a few strokes, making it ideal for last-minute touch-ups before appointments or events.

• Applies in seconds with the compact brush
• Provides spot coverage for individual strands or small sections
• Visible blend that syncs with existing black tones
• Removes with regular shampoo

Will it look natural and stay put during the day?

The powder is formulated to mimic hair color rather than coat the hair like wet dyes, which helps it look more natural on short regrowth and temple areas. It resists light rubs and wind but is best for targeted fixes rather than full-head wear; reapplication may be needed after heavy sweating or water exposure.

• Matte finish reduces shine and prevents obvious touch-ups
• Clings to hair for daily wear but not intended as a waterproof product
• Ideal for temples, part lines, and stray gray strands
• Lasts roughly 40–60 applications per compact

How do I use it to define brows and precise areas?

Use the slim application brush included in the compact to deposit powder exactly where you need it—along the rootline, in partings, or to fill sparse eyebrow areas. Start with light strokes and build coverage gradually until you reach your desired intensity for a more natural look.

• Brush on small amounts for controlled coverage
• Layer lightly for soft definition or add more for stronger coverage
• Use mirror in compact to check blend and symmetry
• Suitable for hairline touch-ups and eyebrow shaping

Is this safe for colored hair and easy to wash out?

The powder is ammonia-free and designed as a temporary cosmetic, so it won’t chemically alter your dyed hair. Because it’s a surface-deposit product, it rinses out with regular shampoo, making it a low-commitment option between color appointments.

• Ammonia-free formula minimizes chemical exposure
• Removes with standard shampooing
• No permanent change to dyed or natural hair structure
• Works with various color treatments when matched correctly

Who is this for: This compact is for anyone who wants a quick, portable solution to conceal gray roots, refresh the hairline, or add definition to eyebrows without committing to a full dye. It’s particularly useful for busy people, travelers, or anyone between salon visits who needs a fast, temporary color touch-up that blends with black hair.
