One of the biggest concerns from many women during this "Shelter in Place" is "What about my roots?". There's a post going around saying that in the next few weeks we're going to know everyone's true haircolor (I think I've even shared it). Don't fret. We'll get through this. This too shall pass. In the mean time, though, you're going to need to be creative with clips, scarves, hats, beanies, and braids (if your hair's long enough). Not unlike working out or getting out for a walk (social distancing, of course), when you feel good about your appearance and your hair looks good you feel better, too. So, if you don't want to mess up your hair and then have to pay for a really expensive color correction, you're going to have to wait for me. If you must do something, here's an article with some recommendations for root cover-ups.
