The Gist
The MODAMODA Gray Hair Cover Stick Black is a stick-format temporary colorant applied with a round brush to cover gray roots and sparse patches. Users report it applies smoothly, blends into hair without streaking, and resists water well enough for daily wear—though it’s positioned as a stopgap before full coloring, not a permanent solution.
What Korean reviewers say
Daiso shoppers rate it 4.4/5 across 270 reviews, signaling consistent approval for a budget product. Reviewers praise the natural blend and gentle formula, especially for those with sensitive scalps or damage from frequent dyeing. The main friction point is shade range: only 2–3 options exist, and several users found the black too dark or visibly mismatched to their actual hair tone. Detailed written reviews are limited, but the consensus suggests this works best as a targeted touch-up for hairline and root areas rather than all-over coverage; some noted mild smudging and gradual ruboff during the day, which reviewers framed as acceptable for a temporary product.
Bottom line
At $3.70, it’s a smart grab for anyone with dark hair needing a quick, mess-free root touch-up between salon visits—especially if you have scalp sensitivity or want to avoid repeated coloring. Skip it if your hair tone doesn’t match the standard black shade, or if you need coverage that lasts all day without any ruboff.
