What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing combines conflicting product information: the title and description identify a 75ml instant temporary spray that washes out with shampoo, while other details describe a 10-minute permanent colour treatment lasting up to 4 weeks and mention a brush applicator. Confirm the selected item, contents and instructions. Customer feedback about 4–5 washes and 10-minute development may refer to the permanent-colour claims rather than this spray.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- People with light-brown hair seeking a temporary grey-root touch-up between colour appointments.
- Buyers who prefer a spray format and want colour that the description says washes out with shampoo.
Less suited to
- Anyone seeking a confirmed permanent root-colour treatment or a guaranteed wear duration, as the listing mixes temporary-spray and permanent-colour descriptions.
- People whose hair colour is not a close match for 6 Light Brown.

Customer feedback describes the colour as easy to use, quick to develop and natural-looking, with some reports of effective silver-root coverage. Opinions on grey coverage are mixed, including feedback that the colour can be too dark, and value opinions also differ. These impressions matter when choosing shade 6 Light Brown, but they do not resolve the listing’s conflicting descriptions of a temporary spray and permanent colour.
Positive themes
- Customers report ease of use, natural appearance and effective root touch-ups.
Mixed feedback
- Grey coverage receives mixed feedback, including reports that the result may be too dark.
- Opinions on value for money are divided.
Frequently asked questions
What shade is this root spray?
The listing identifies it as shade 6 Light Brown. Matching results may depend on how closely that shade fits your hair colour.
Is it temporary or permanent?
The title and spray description present a temporary product that washes out with shampoo, but other listing sections describe 10-minute permanent colour lasting up to 4 weeks. Confirm the selected product and its packaging.
How long does it take to apply?
The product title claims grey coverage in 3 seconds, while separate feature text says 10 minutes. Those timings relate to contradictory product descriptions, so check the instructions for the item supplied.
