I have always gone to a hair salon to do regular dying of my hair – since I started graying very early. So yesterday, I decided to save some money and do it myself instead.
So I went out and got the Clairol Root Touch-Up. It said on the cover that it matches any medium auburn, medium reddish brown. Apparently, the instructions were pretty simple. It says : “Simply brush your grays and roots with permanent color…just 10 minutes between colorings.”
So I got the kit out and and started applying to my hair. Then I got stuck half-way and asked hubby to help. He dutifully went through my long hair and touched up every area that I couldn’t reached. 10 minutes later, I took a shower and when I came out, it sure looks better.
So I just saved $65 from the trip to the hair salon (actually more if you include tips). So if you are looking for a hair color root touch up, try Clairol.

Our family just came back from our Spring Break Vacation. We went to Orlando Florida and enjoyed bright sunshine and we are totally knackered but refreshed. I had wanted to blog about our trip during the actual break, but the hotel that we stayed in could not connect us because we were using “Windows Vista”!. But our schedule looked something like that.
Last Friday – Drove from Philadelphia to North Carolina – stayed overnight at the Courtyard Marriott.
Saturday – 2nd Leg of the Journey from North Carolina all the way to Orlando.
Sunday – Realized that I forgot to pack hubby’s underwear, so we went to the Outlets to get some (find out which brand in a later post). It was also our 12th Anniversary and we celebrated with a nice dinner.
Monday – Went to Disney Quest – Arcade Games
Tuesday – Met up with neighbor and went to Kennedy Space Center (NASA).
Wednesday – Just hung out and hubby watched aliens versus monsters with eldest son.
Thursday – Spent the whole day at Aquatica (water theme park).
Friday – Started driving back and stayed at the same Courtyard Marriott.
Saturday (yesterday) – arrived back in the evening.
I’ll be spending this week writing about our trip and give you a few tips on vacation planning.
