Oh bother I look like a badger and I do not have any hair dye, But I’ve discovered the perfect product on its coverage you can always rely It’s a temporary spray on hair colour believe me it really is a godsend as my hairdressers closed cos of covid and it’s driving me right round the bend! I shake the can for about 30 seconds as the mixture’s in need of a mix then spray it onto my grey parting my hair’s fixed in a couple of clicks! If your hair‘s in-between a colour please take notice of my handy tip buy a spray on temporary colour to remove your silver landing strip! For my sweet on line friend Sundae 05/19/20

I think the hairdressers and barbers will be working 24/7 when lockdown eases! Have coloured by hair for years long before the greys came through - first henna then dye - mum went grey at a very young age :-) hugs Jan xx

I have heard of these. My problem is that I have dark AND white roots and my golden hair dye for streaks, so how do I blend in that mix? My daughter is hairdresser and I think i will go see her soon!! Good one, Jan.
