Organic & Natural Black Beard Dye

I have used this product now for over 5 years (as 'Just For Men' beard dye started burning my face).There is a knack to using it that I will share below.Note: after applying and washing off, your beard WILL have a green tinge to it, the trick I find is to apply on a Sunday morning, (it takes time to oxidise), then you are ready to go on a Monday morning.For the best to results I do the following:1. Prepare the mixture : approx. 2 TABLEspoons of the main mix and add approx. 1 heaped TEAspoon of the smaller mix.Using HOT water mix the powder to a ketchup consistency, then leave it for a couple of mins while you do step 2.I make the mixture in the lid from a can of hairspray.2. Wash my beard well and towel dry it.3. Apply the mixture liberally using up + down strokes with the brush to ensure the beard is coated on the underneath of the hair.4. Leave the mixture on for 1 hour.5. Wash the mixture off in the shower, but DONT use soap or shampoo on the beard at this point (just use water!)By the next morning the beard will have oxidised and you can wash your face and beard as normal.The only downside I guess is the faint smell which is a grass/tea odour after Step 5, but I personally don't mind it (nor does my wife).I hope my instructions help those who are having difficulty with this product or 1st time users.I repeat the above every week and is part of my normal routine.

I had high expectations for this product, choosing to overlook the negative reviews—but unfortunately, that was a mistake. The instructions are poorly written and fail to mention the use of the base product. Despite this, I gave it multiple tries, only to end up being ridiculed by my peers. Instead of enhancing my slightly grey-black beard, it turned an unnatural drag queen blue/purple, leaving me no choice but to shave it off entirely.This product is not fit for purpose and should be marketed as a novelty rather than a serious grooming solution. While the concept behind it is commendable, it clearly fails for a significant number of users. Something as personal as beard care deserves a product that actually delivers on its promises.Also, no response from the company following my concerns about the colour.

Follow the instructions and don't panic if it goes a touch green to start. It does smell like cut grass when you put it on, but it goes away quickly. My skin is sensitive and I can not use anything with PPD in it. I've used this twice, no skin reaction and it's covered my whites. It gets darker slowly, so persevere. Delighted to have found a product that works for me.

Lots of good reviews on here already because it's a product that really makes you think.It is absolutely the best dye I have tried for sensitive skin. I haven't itched once and I no longer fear the face napalm trauma I experienced with Just for men.When you get it right the colour is the most natural out of all I have tried, and it lasts for around a week. I'm a personal fan of the way it darkens all your beard but leaves other whiskers ever so slightly lighter to give your beard a more wholesome appearance; the best out of them all tbh.Undoubtedly, I still haven't perfected it, and I can see why people don't persevere with this product - which is a shame. In their instructions, Grizzly Mountain do mention 'taming your beard' with initial applications and this is key. It's not going to be a thirty minute - there it all is - job. Folk who have used the other dyes out there may have become accustomed to their more instant colour gratification; and so GM might disappoint many who are looking for a quick fix. In the beginning, I experienced the greens and the purples...but hardly ever now, and we're talking 9-10 months of use. It now looks good, and more importantly, it makes me feel like I have mastered the grey.I think the important thing is to give your beard a thorough wash with hot/warm water before mixing and applying as this cleans out any residue which can affect any strange colours.Don't be too frugal with how much you apply either. Slap it on.
