ColorMark wants you to take a marker to your gray hairs

Much as it pains us to admit this, we have a few stubborn gray hairs that keep reappearing despite diligent plucking efforts on our end. Yes, we are aware of the “two-for-one” old wives’ tale, but it doesn’t stop us from pulling them out because our hair is jet black, i.e., you can see them—an inevitable truth that we are not quite prepared to deal with. We’ve recently changed our ways, however, not because reality has set in but because ColorMark’s new TouchBack pens just crossed our desk. The latest in touch-up technology, the angled markers are essentially non-carcinogenic Sharpies for your hair, covering grays at the root so you can bypass the ordeal of sectional dying and the damage that comes along with it. The color is not permanent, sadly, and comes out when you shampoo, but the pens are pocket-size so you can take them with you should you need to reapply on the go. Available in eight rub- and flake-resistant shades, they launch exclusively on QVC in June.
