Hiding a few greys at the front (dark hair)

I've got a few grey hairs at the front of my head / crown area, mainly one one side. I have long dark hair and they are definitely noticeable in some circumstances eg hair up.

I don't think I want to dye it as most of the time my hair is down and it's not massively noticeable plus I'm in the house most of the time but for occasions when I want to cover those few dark hairs what's the best thing to use.

I've seen spray on products, powders and mascara type things but wondered what is best to go for?

I also have dark hair and my handful of greys really stand out Grin I got this a few months ago and it’s really easy to use and does a good job.

Thanks Salanda There seem to be a few different ones, a brush, a pencil and a spray? Which have you tried?

Oh, yes, I’ve got the blending brush. It’s a liquid that comes out through the bristles of the brush, and then you paint it on to the hair - it’s good for a targeted application where you need it. It then dries and you can brush through the hair.

I've used colour wow powder which you put on with a small brush. Also used L'Oréal colour spray.

Both good at covering grey.

My hair is curly so I wouldn't be able to brush through

I will have a look

I think I bought my mum the colour wow a few years ago, now I think of it
