L'Oreal Paris Magic Root Permanent Root Touch-Up Kit — 5A Medium Ash Brown, 10-Min Coverage & Precision Brush (2 Count)

L'Oreal Paris Magic Root is a ready-to-use permanent root touch-up kit that covers 100% of gray roots in just 10 minutes using a low-ammonia color gel and a precision brush applicator.

This kit is designed for fast, targeted root coverage between full-color services. The compact, ready-to-apply system eliminates bowl mixing and helps you quickly reach the hairline, part and temples where gray regrowth is most visible. Its low-ammonia formula contains conditioning agents to help leave roots feeling smoother and less dry than traditional permanent dyes.

How fast will I see results with this root touch-up?

Expect complete gray coverage in approximately ten minutes from application to rinse, making it a practical option for last-minute prepping. Results are permanent until new hair growth appears, typically lasting up to about four weeks depending on individual growth rate.

• Processing time: 10 minutes from application to rinse
• Coverage: Targets 100% gray roots at hairline, part, and temples
• Longevity: Holds until new growth—often around four weeks

Is this safe for sensitive scalps and easy to use at home?

The formula is lower in ammonia than some traditional permanent dyes, and it includes a built-in conditioning agent to reduce dryness after coloring. The ready-to-use design with a soft precision brush and applicator tip simplifies application, minimizing mess and the need for separate mixing bowls.

• Low-ammonia gel and conditioning ingredients for gentler feel
• Precision brush tip for controlled, direct root application
• Pre-measured components and gloves included—no bowl required

Will the shade blend with my existing color?

The 5A Medium Ash Brown shade is formulated to harmonize with salon and at-home colors, producing neutral ash undertones that help diffuse warm tones. For best matching, apply when regrowth is under one inch and compare to your base color under natural light.

• Shade family: Medium ash brown—cooler undertone to reduce brassiness
• Blends with professional and at-home colors when regrowth is fresh
• Available in a range of shades to match different base colors

What comes in the kit and how do I apply it precisely?

The kit contains the pre-mixed color gel, a conditioning developer bottle, a soft precision brush applicator, a precision tip applicator, and gloves. The brush helps part hair and target small sections at the hairline and temples, while the ready-to-use gel skips separate mixing steps for faster, tidier application.

• Included: color gel, developer bottle, precision brush, tip applicator, gloves
• Application: part small sections, apply to roots, wait 10 minutes, rinse
• Use with L'Oreal Elvive Color Protecting shampoo/conditioner to extend vibrancy

Who is this for: This kit is designed for anyone who needs quick, dependable root coverage—busy professionals, frequent travelers, or anyone who prefers at-home maintenance between salon appointments. It works well for first-time at-home users and experienced dyers who want precise, repeatable results without mixing bowls. If you regularly touch up just your roots and want a compact, fast option that blends with your existing color, this product is built for that routine.
