Just For Men Control GX Grey Reducing Beard Wash Shampoo with Keratin, Gradually Colors Mustache and Beard, Leaves Facial Hair Thicker Softer and Fuller, 4 Fl Oz - Pack of 1 (Packaging May Vary)

Smells nice, better than the purple bottle THK thickening version (which smells more like hair dye, bleh). Works slowly & subtly so you don't suddenly look like you have a fake dark beard and everyone knows you're coloring.I'm not sure about this, but it seems like this brown bottle version (non-THK) might be less effective than the purple bottle THK (thickening) version. This perception could simply be coincidence with how I've used it, since I alternate using that until the bottle's gone, then I use a bottle of this, and so on. I use it about 2-3 times per week to maintain. What's nice is you can choose how often to use to subtly hide some grey, or keep using daily to keep increasing its effect, or use once in a while to maintain subtle camouflaging. Sky's the limit so to speak.IMPORTANT: when they say don't leave this on your nails, THEY MEAN IT! This stuff stains your nails QUICKLY! Use gloves or rinse off your nails *immediately*, and this even includes your toenails when you rinse while standing in the shower, pay attention to that too, lift your toes or make sure they're in the water stream- you've been warned. Unless you don't mind your nails looking dark and dirty, but chances are if you're using this stuff to begin with, then you care about your appearance.ALSO IMPORTANT: Don't expect immediate results, it takes time to start having a noticeable effect, and they explain this. TIP, you can apply this standing at the sink and leave on longer than the 2-3 minutes they recommend, for greater & faster effect. Personally I think 2-3 minutes is too little time, but that's me.

Does exactly what it says. One week and beard is much darker. Heads up, use a dark towel and be sure to wipe down your sink. It does leave a residue.

This product seems to do an okay job at darkening grey hairs, but does an amazing job of dying your lips and along and underneath your fingernails. As instructed, I wash my hands constantly throughout the process, but it still manages to permanently dye my fingernails, usually along the sides (and it's near impossible to apply to a mustache with palms as directed). I'm now applying some Chapstick to avoid staining of the lips, but think I'm going to need to try applying that or something similar to my nails as well. Doesn't seem to stain other areas of my skin at all and a small amount used two or three times a week seems to hide greys well enough, at least from a distance (greys are still noticeable up close). Seems to work best on longer hairs (4mm guard or longer), but does help a little with shorter stubble, just not as well. Overall color tone seems to be a light to medium brown, which appears to be a shade too light for my natural color. The foaming/lather is about right and is much easier to work with compared to their gradual shampoo.Interesting product, but for someone that keeps their facial hair short, I'm really not sure if it's worth $8 for such a small tube. I'm going to keep trying it for a month or two and see if I can find a balance between application intervals and trimming facial hair, while somehow trying to avoid the staining.

Like everyone else who buys this my beard had gotten a lot of white in it (more than I was prepared to accept at the moment ;). So, I bought some beard wash and used it. My experience is pretty straight forward: the first couple of times I used the product I used nitrile gloves (while in the shower) and worked about a half-dollar sized amount into my beard then let it sit for 3 minutes (per instructions.) There was a very slight chemical heat that I noticed but nothing that was painful.I rinsed thoroughly (as per instructions) and found no staining on anything (nothing on the shower walls/floor.)After the first application I could tell a very tiny tiny bit of difference which gave me a good indication of how much and how often I would have to use this to maintain my luxurious beard in an appropriate manner (you know - trying to keep the white under control without looking like I'm trying to keep it under control.)After the second use a few days later I was already at the level I was looking for and now I use the product once a week (more like once every 8 or 9 days) to keep on top of growth of new beard hair.I've seen some of the reviews about staining and other issues which was were my primary concerns. Another reviewer stated that if you follow the instructions exactly you will have no problems and that person is correct. **just FOLLOW the instructions exactly and you should have a good experience**Now, I do not even use gloves as I have not experienced any staining at all with or without gloves. Also, the color of the product isn't some deep dark staining color and is more of like a vanilla cream look with some mixing of brown/caramel color swirled in so no dark color to really stain anything.Your mileage may vary but it worked great for me - FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!
