The $25 Hair Product That’ll Save You a Trip to the Salon

We’ve all seen—or most likely been—that girl with two inches of grown-out roots shining like a beacon of light from her scalp. It kind of feels like everyone is silently judging your hair (they aren’t; nobody really cares). And while we’re not saying you even have to bother dying your hair at all, we know what it’s like to want to run from gray hair as long as possible—but unless you have an unlimited supply of cash and free time to trek to the salon every month, your options are kind of limited.

Sure, you can try a root touch-up dye—though, good luck finding a shade that perfectly matches the rest of your hair and won’t stain your scalp—or dust your roots with a cover-up powder (which will inevitably get all over your forehead and fingers by noon), but realistically, the only sure-fire disguise is a hat. At least, that was the case before hairstylist Anh Co Tran got involved and created a solution.
