With lockdown messing up just about everything from our social lives to our skincare, one thing a lot of people are concerned about is our ever-worsening root situation.

With the hairdressers out of bounds, many of us who rely on our six-weekly root touch-ups are entering into unchartered territory with our hair.

Our regrowth is bigger than ever before and - while its definitely not the most important thing in the world RN - it's not boding well for everything from our confidence to our selfie game.

So in the mean time, why not try a root touch-up?

L'Oréal Magic Retouch Temporary Instant Root Concealer Spray's is being raved about on Amazon and it can be easily applied from your lockdown.

The coloured spray is designed to easily be applied to your roots for some temporary coverage for your next big Zoom call.

Simply hold the can 10 to 15cm from hair and spray roots in a light stream, and allow to dry for one minute.

Magic Retouch is currently being sold for between £6.38 and £11.99 on Amazon, with prices varying depending on availability of shades. It comes in a range of nine colours from black to golden blonde.

Out of 1,828 reviews on Amazon, 68 per cent awarded the product five stars, with a further 15 per cent giving it 4 stars.

"Can't praise it enough!! My hair is all shades of blonde & brown and this product covered all growth," wrote one happy customer.

"Having spent a fortune on root-retouch products over the past decade or so, I am delighted to have ended my quest with this one," said one person. "I rarely use it all over my head as it isn't necessary if you're hair is tied back, so I just aim at the visible parts. That means I get an extra couple of weeks between salon visits which equals a decent saving of time and money over the year."

"This is probably the only spray that doesn't leave marks on your pillows!!," said one person. "Works wonders. Used another brand once, fell asleep on the plane and left black marks all over the window pane! This one never did that."

"At last a product that's easy to use and hides grey. Great if you don't have time to colour your hair, and your going on a night out. Makes you look and feel great," said another.

We'll definitely be trying this.
