Hair Outgrowth Sprays & Picks

What is an Outgrowth Spray and how does it work?

An outgrowth spray is a temporary color solution specifically designed to camouflage visible outgrowth and gray hair. These clever formulas contain color pigments that adhere to your hair and provide instant coverage where you need it.

The spray works by creating a fine mist of color particles that adhere to the hair shaft. This creates a natural color transfer that perfectly matches your hair color. Most outgrowth sprays are water-resistant and last until your next wash, allowing you to enjoy a perfect hair look for days.

What hair type is a Root Touch Up suitable for?

Outgrowth sprays are suitable for all hair types and colors. Whether you have dark, blonde, brown or red hair, there is always an appropriate shade that seamlessly matches your natural color. The formulas are specially adapted for different hair textures, from fine to thick hair.

For colored hair, these sprays work particularly effectively because they completely eliminate the transition between your natural hair color and the colored lengths. Also, for people with fast-growing hair or a sensitive scalp, outgrowth sprays offer a gentle alternative to frequent dyeing.

Tips for best results

Always apply the spray to dry, clean hair for optimal adhesion. Hold the bottle about 15 inches away from your hair and spray in short bursts to get a natural result. Work from the roots outward and comb through gently for even distribution.

Why choose an outgrowth marker or spray?

The biggest advantage of concealing outgrowth with a spray is its speed and simplicity. Within minutes you have a professional result without the cost and time of a haircutting visit. Perfect for last-minute appointments or when your outgrowth catches the eye unexpectedly.

In addition, outgrowth sprays are much gentler on your hair than permanent coloring. They contain no harsh chemicals such as ammonia or peroxide, sparing your scalp and hair from damage. This makes them ideal for regular use between color appointments.

How do you use a Root Touch Up Spray?

Always start with completely dry hair and shake the bottle well before use. Divide your hair into sections and aim the spray at the roots where the outgrowth is visible. Spray from a distance of 10-15 centimeters and move slowly along the hairline.

Let the spray dry for a few minutes before styling your hair. For extra coverage, you can apply a second coat, but always wait until the first coat is completely dry. The result will last until your next wash and can easily be washed out with your regular shampoo.
