Maintaining Hair Color with Gray Away

Easy Maintenance For Your Hair Color with Gray Away

July 9, 2020 · In: Lifestyle, Momlife

This post was sponsored by Gray Away as part of an Influencer Activation and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

Life is insane, especially right now. So much fun is to be had during these summer months, but it also can be a little chaotic. Having ways to keep things in check and easily maintained is a must for me during these months. One thing that I like to keep in control are these gray roots. Here is an easy maintenance for my hair root color in between sessions!

Maintenance Hair Color with Gray Away

Getting to a salon may be a task.

I know we all experienced the most recent drought of hair salon visits. Some may not even be open yet while others may need to wait for longer periods of time to keep things safe with social distance in mind. No matter the situation, those of us who suffer from those dreaded hair roots don’t want to see them everyday. What’s the big deal about those gray hairs?

Self care is my sanity.

Self care is finally becoming more of a priority for me. Taking care of myself helps me be a better person to all those who are in my life. Hair maintenance is one of those self care essentials for me along side a quick spin session. I feel so much better when I have color over those gray hairs. It is a self care event that needs to occur about 1 time a month. I can push it out to 2 months, but that is really pushing it. So how do I make it work when I am unable to get to a salon? Gray Away is how I make it work.

Maintenance Hair Color with Gray Away

Keeping those gray hairs at bay with Gray Away.

Within 2 months from visiting the salon, I am unable to pull my hair up completely into a ponytail without showing off those gray hairs. Mine are the worst along the front of my face. Pulling my hair up becomes less of an occurrence as those gray roots begin to shine. Life can be hectic and finding the time to get to a salon can be a challenge. Gray Away products are fantastic in covering up gray roots.

Hair Maintenance before Gray Away application

What is Gray Away? Gray Away offers an affordable, salon-quality root concealer product that you can use at home. It is the perfect addition to an on-the-go lifestyle. They have two different products that I stand behind:

  • The Temporary Root Concealer Spray is a revolutionary breakthrough in hair care that gives you the fastest and easiest way to touch up and cover gray roots by spraying directly where you need it.
  • The Root Touch-Up Quick Stick provides ultra-targeted gray root coverage at the hairline and eyebrows, and is dual-ended with an angled tip for precise application. It even has a sponge tip for effortless blending where you applied the root coverage.

How does it work?

These temporary root concealers are so easy to use. When you are ready, just part your hair to the section where the gray roots are obvious. The Temporary Root Concealer spray can be applied, then allow to fully dry before styling. That’s it!

The Root Touch-Up Quick Stick reminds me of a concealer stick that you would use when applying makeup. It is super easy to apply. As with the Temporary Root Concealer, part your hair to the section where the gray roots are obvious. Apply the Root Touch-Up Quick Stick to those pesky gray hairs like you are coloring on the color. Then use the other end of the stick with the sponge to help blend in the color. Again, that’s it!

Grays have nothing on Gray Away!

It is great to have products like Gray Away when life keeps you from visiting the salon: kids, quarantine, etc. Just because life gets too crazy, doesn’t mean you can’t still keep up with your hair maintenance. Take care of you and that hair without life getting in the way! Grab your Gray Away products from Walmart!

This weekend caught me off guard with how I was go This weekend caught me off guard with how I was going to feel when I left. Headed to Houston not sure what to expect with the new NCA venue, but also the fact Chloe had sprained her foot earlier that week. As a mom, you second guess all the things… is it bad I let her do this? Am I wrong for telling her she needs to compete? Let me tell you, the moment she walked onto that mat.. I knew. It wasn’t about me, it was about her. This year has been a learning year. Learning a whole new team and learning a whole new position. We have had our emotional ups and downs, but this weekend sealed the deal.

Day 1 didn’t go our teams way- left us in last place. Tough when you know what they can do. Day 2 was their day… hit 0 with a 4 point increase. Moving from last place to 4th with only a 0.5 difference from being in that winner’s circle. When Chloe landed that last pose at the end of day 2, all I could do was cry. They came back and did their thing. Seeing Chloe out there, killing it and loving it is what it’s about. Don’t get me wrong, a cool jacket is something I know she wanted. But… she knows she went into beast mode this weekend, pushing through the issues with her foot, and did the darn thing. I couldn’t be more proud of her and this team! 

@cheerforcelouisiana came to NCA and truly showed out! Glad to say we are a part of this CF family 🩵🖤✨

Can’t wait to see this team hit the mat! They are something else ✨✨✨ See you soon, Houston!
