Herbatint Root Touch-Up Kit — Dark Chestnut

Herbatint Dark Chestnut Temporary Root Touch-Up is a brush-on gray root concealer for refreshing visible regrowth between coloring sessions or salon visits. Its hair-mascara format requires no mixing or developer, and the temporary color washes out with your next shampoo.

Dark Chestnut shade matching

Herbatint recommends Dark Chestnut for dark chestnut or chestnut hair, using permanent-color shades 3N and 4N as references. Compare your existing color with those shade references rather than choosing by the word “dark” alone. The Black Root Touch-Up Kit is a separate option for black or very dark brown hair.

Temporary coverage, not permanent hair dye

The precision fiber-bristle applicator lets you target visible gray regrowth at the parting and hairline without preparing a color-and-developer mixture. Herbatint describes the formula as leaving no sticky residue or smudging when dry. Allow it to dry fully before contact with clothing or hair accessories.

This product conceals roots until shampooing; it does not permanently recolor them. For a permanent-color option, compare 3N Dark Chestnut or 4N Chestnut, following the separate directions for those coloring gels.

How to apply the precision-brush concealer

Comb your hair and part it where you want coverage. Remove the applicator with a spiral motion to avoid excess product, then gently brush over visible grays. Herbatint suggests tapping the brush gently at the roots and rotating it while applying to distribute the color evenly.

Let the touch-up dry for about five minutes, then gently comb from roots to ends to blend. Follow the directions supplied with this product; permanent hair-color mixing ratios and processing times do not apply to this temporary concealer.

Between-wash care and product selection

Coverage lasts until your next shampoo. Avoid prolonged water contact after application because the temporary color can be removed. Let treated hair dry before it touches clothing or accessories, and review the current ingredient list and all package warnings before use.
