Control GX Beard Wash, Gradually Reduces Grey, 4 Fl Oz (1 Pk)

I've been using Just for Men Control GX Beard Wash for years and I don't see myself stopping anytime soon, at least until my wife decides she actually prefers the gray! For anyone expecting instant results, this isn't that kind of product. It's designed to reduce gray gradually and that's exactly why I like it. I have dark brown hair but for some reason my beard has been the only thing turning gray for well over a decade and it seems like it gets grayer every year. As long as I use this once or twice a week, it keeps the gray at bay and maintains the look I want without making it obvious that I'm using a coloring product. I've had a beard for over 20 years, usually kept around 8–10 mm in length. Whenever I trim it, it's typically on a Friday night or Saturday morning. After trimming, I'll use Control GX once or twice over the weekend to bring the color back to what it looked like before the trim. From there, I usually only need one application during the week to keep everything looking consistent. One tip for long-time users: toward the end of the bottle, it seems like there's a much higher concentration of dye left compared to the shampoo. Rather than using it straight, I've found that it works much better to start a new bottle and mix in a small amount of dye from the old bottle during each use. I've been doing this for a long time and it gives me stronger, more consistent results while letting me go longer between applications. It's also incredibly easy to use. One thing I learned early on is to apply it with your palms instead of your fingertips. The dye stains your fingernails after repeated use (I noticed it after about half a dozen applications), but using your palms avoids that problem completely. Another big plus is that it doesn't irritate my skin or scalp so it should be gentle enough for people with sensitive skin. I will also mention that both the wife and daughter have been using it to occasionally help dye their eyebrows and they both have extremely sensitive skin and they've never complained about it at all. Overall, this has been an excellent product for me. It's easy to use, provides natural-looking gradual results and has become a regular part of my grooming routine. If you're patient and use it consistently, I think you'll be very happy with the results. I definitely recommend it.

Before purchasing this product I hadn't ever colored my hair, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The colorant splurts out of the tube kind of messily, but it's easy to tell where it splatters from the black stains it leaves on countertops & showers. Luckily they can be wiped away without too much difficulty. It also colors fingernails and scabs more quickly and intensely than it colors hair, so rinsing thoroughly is important, especially around the edges of nailbeds. It's true to its word about gradually coloring hair over time. I couldn't tell any difference after one use or even two back-to-back uses, but after 5-6 days I could tell the white patches of my beard had an earthy ashen tinge to them. It was a little greyer than I'd envisioned (starting from snow white hair), but that likely helped it look more natural and is probably a good thing. Even though it was gradual, I could still trim my beard using the narrowest guard I have and still notice an effect (i.e. it colors quickly enough to tint even the shortest-lived parts of my beard). The only real downside I've noticed that can't be solved by cleaning up properly is the scent. It has that deodoranty-smelling scent that cheap soaps & shampoos marketed to men tend to be drenched in. I don't really like my face smelling like I've rubbed a bar of Right Guard all over it. I stop noticing it after an hour or so, but have no idea how long it might actually linger. I'm still impressed by how trouble-free the coloring process, though.

First off the product does exactly what it says. When used overtime it will slowly gradually reduce your grey hairs. As stated by other reviews, the first time I used it I left it in for 5 minutes and I did this twice daily for about 4 days. By the fifth day most of my grey hairs were covered up and then I switched to using it as a regular beard wash every other day leaving it in for 3 minutes this time without having to think about touching it really which is a huge bonus. You have to experiment to see which routine works best for you but do not give up, it does work. Oh be sure to wear gloves or use your palm and not your finger tips to apply it to your beard because it can and will stain your finger tips and nails. Also it is gently on my beard and skin compared to other dye products that I've used (including other Just for Men beard dyes). It smells pretty decent also. So yeah going forward this will be my only beard dye products. It's fairly cheap, you get a decent amount in the bottle and you just lather your beard, wait three minutes while you shower and just rinse it out. Very easy and highly recommended

Subtle, effective, hassle free, and (currently) fairly priced. But, read and take the instructions seriously. Don't be THAT smurf. I use in the shower: Wash my hair then move to the beard. Wet beard and apply like you would regular hair/shampoo except leave it in and avoid getting more water in it. Wash hands with soap/water immediately after applying. Then soap up and wash the rest of body. Come back to rinse beard at the end. (No more soap needed.) Probably 5 minutes total. Seems to get stronger and more consistent results with that setting time. Never a problem with staining (hands, feet, face, or otherwise). I've noticed that it has a very slight burning sensation while it is working and once it stops, it's time to rinse. I use half dollar size amount for a full, but short, beard (#5 or #6 on hair clippers). But, it's fine to use a more when starting out, until you get a feel for it. When I started my beard was nearly full Santa Claus while my hair was brown with a touch of grey at temples. Took about 3 or 4 times before it matched my hair. I don't see a change until the day after washing, when my beard has had a chance to work the oils back into itself though. So patience. (They sell other products for immediate color, if that's your game.) After I get it where I want it I just use it once or twice a week. It comes out as your beard grows. So, if you see yourself getting a touch too much grey, use it the next time you shower. (This package lasts me nearly 4-5 months if that tells you anything.) After a couple months I feel like the color gets too dark in the thicker parts and so I let it go 50% grey again. Then start over. I have experimented with only applying to problem areas. Seems to work, but also annoying to be so particular, and have to use a mirror, in the shower when all you want is to get on with things though. Edit -- Notes after 1.5 years of use: - I noticed that I developed a _slight_ heat rash on my sternum, and It persisted into winter. Apparently I have sensitive skin. Simple pass with soap and water on the affected area, after the final rinse, cleared it up over a couple weeks. I forget half the time and am fine. - I also use a regular beard wash (Viking brand, nothing special) on days I don't use this, to keep my beard looking and smelling nice, and it doesn't seem to affect the results or duration.

I decided to try the Control GX Grey Reducing Beard Wash because I was tired of the grey in my beard making me feel older than I am. After using it for a while, I have some mixed feelings, but it definitely does what it claims if you’re careful. The Learning Curve This isn't an "instant fix" product. It's designed for a gradual change, and it really does take several washes before you notice a visible difference. • Timing is Key: I usually apply it as soon as I get in the shower and let it sit for exactly three minutes. • The "Fake" Look: A word of caution-don't leave it on too long. If you get overzealous, it can discolor your skin and make the beard look unnaturally dark and "fake." Important Precautions • Staining: This stuff is potent. Be very careful not to get it under your fingernails, as it will discolor them. • The Shower & Towels: It will stain your shower tiles and your towels. Even after rinsing thoroughly, I still get some color transfer. I’ve had to designate a "special" dark towel just for my beard to avoid ruining our good ones. Results & Value I like the product, but I wouldn't say I love it. For the amount of effort and the precautions you have to take, the impact feels a bit slow for my personal taste. It does work, and the gradual shift is more subtle than a standard dye, but you have to be committed to the routine. Final Verdict If you want a subtle, non-drastic way to turn back the clock and don't mind a little extra shower maintenance, this is a solid choice. Just keep a close eye on the clock and keep a dedicated towel nearby!

Works great but sometimes leaves a your fingers dark, so make sure to wash your hands right away.

I really like this product because it doesn’t give you that "fake" jet-black look overnight. It’s very subtle and gradually darkens the grey every time you wash, which makes the change look much more natural to people around you. It also leaves my beard feeling softer than a standard shampoo. Pros: Subtle Results: You control the color by how often you use it. It’s perfect if you just want to "salt and pepper" your look rather than fully dye it. Convenience: It replaces your normal beard wash, so there’s no extra step or messy mixing involved. Conditioning: The keratin actually makes a difference; my beard feels noticeably fuller and less wiry. Cons: Staining: You have to be careful with your fingernails and light-colored towels. I’ve found that rinsing the shower immediately after use is a must to prevent any dark spots. Speed: If you have an event tomorrow and need the grey gone instantly, this isn't the product for you. It takes about a week of daily use to see a real shift. Overall, it's a solid 4-star product for anyone who wants a low-maintenance, realistic way to manage grey facial hair.

I’ve been using this beard wash for a while now, and it works great. It gradually reduces the gray without making it look like I suddenly dyed my beard overnight, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The results are subtle and natural, so it still looks like me, just a little younger. It definitely gives me a confidence boost every time I look in the mirror. At this stage of my life, I’m perfectly fine with a little gray, but I also like that my beard still has more of its original darker color without it being too obvious. The gradual change is what really makes this stand out, and it’s incredibly easy to work into my normal routine. If you want a natural-looking way to dial back the gray without drawing attention to it, this has been a great choice for me.

Best product i ever used its real works amazing and reducing grey hair without affect on skin. nice product

%90’ın üzerinde beyaz olan sakallarımı yavaş yavaş birkaç haftada %45-55 oranına getirip 10 yıl geriye attı beni,kimya mühendislerini tebrik ediyorum( eğer sakallarınız boyayı içine almayacak kadar inatçıysa düz boya kullanmanız gerekir)

El producto ha llegado perfecto; ahora, lo he utilizado diariamente sin notar ningún resultado a pesar de dejarlo más tiempo del recomendado.

Works slowly but works

I am using it every day from past one week but still I can see grey hairs
