Root Touch-Up Powder in Six Shades, Gray Coverage Between Color Appointments | Salon-Selected
A lightweight binding powder from Style Edit that conceals gray roots and regrowth in one swipe, offered here in six shades across three Style Edit lines: Black, Dark Brown and Light Brown from the Brunette collection, Medium Blonde from Blonde Perfection, and Dark Red and Light Red from Drop Red Gorgeous. Each compact holds the powder, a built-in mirror and a hidden sponge applicator, so you can touch up the part and hairline at home, in the car or before a meeting without any other tools.
The pigments are color-adaptive and blend with both natural and color-treated hair. The finish is soft and touchable with no sticky residue, and it is sweat-proof, water-resistant and weather-resistant, so it holds through a normal day and rinses clean with your next shampoo. Style Edit makes it in the USA, free of harsh dyes, parabens and silicones.
Choosing a shade: Style Edit matches its brunette shades to hair color levels. Black is for level 1, cool, natural or warm black. Dark Brown is for levels 2 to 3, black through medium brown. Light Brown is for levels 6 to 7, lightest brown through medium blonde. Blondes reach for Medium Blonde, and reds choose between Dark Red and Light Red.
Selected by Delena Markland, a licensed cosmetologist with over 25 years behind the chair. Test the shade at the part in daylight and choose the one that disappears. Regrowth usually shows first at the part line, and that is the stretch a root powder is built for. After you touch up, smooth the part and any flyaways with the Hair Finishing Stick so the line looks crisp rather than dusty. For a single line of grays at the temples, the Style Edit Root Cover-Up Stick is the more precise tool, and the Root Concealer Travel Spray Kit covers a wider band of regrowth. If what you are covering is thinning rather than gray, read about ProCell, and browse Shop All for the rest of the lineup.
Works best for: gray roots and regrowth between color appointments, the part line and hairline, touch-ups on the go, and brunette, blonde and red hair.
Shades: Black, Dark Brown, Light Brown, Medium Blonde, Dark Red, Light Red | Format: Pressed binding powder with sponge applicator and mirror | Wear: Sweat-proof, water-resistant | Removal: Washes out with shampoo | Made in: USA
