    DESCRIPTION:
    Have you ever thought about colouring your beard? ME TOO! But I have never done it despite the fact that my grey hair is coming in fast and furious.
    In fact I have talked to tons of guys who watched my GQ Beard Trimming Videos who have also thought about it and have DM'd me about it . But for a collection of reasons most of us are unsure about trying it out. There seems to be a weird stigma attached and plenty of guys feel a sense of shame about it. Probably doesn't help that there is an army of opinions online shared by guys with incredibly low personal standards and artificially inflated self esteems. However I don't judge you... I'm just here to help.
    As it turns out I have a little experience with hair colour! I used to work for a company that was one of the top manufacturers of hair colour in the world. So let me answer as many questions as I can for you about how to successfully colour your beard if that's what you choose to do.

    I think the color variations in a beard add a lot of visual interest. Going to a single color defiantly makes people look younger if that's what you're going for. There's another option called Cleverman that is worth a look.

However, you are a professional and might know something I don’t, which is why I was a bit puzzled. Overall, I love your videos, they inspire me and I wish you could be my barber. You’re the best.

    Just discovered this channel ! Fascinating video, as I dye my beard fairly regularly without really knowing very much. I have a short grey beard that I dye a little just to reduce the greyness without removing it all. Unfortunately my skin has started reacting to the dye and causes unbearable itching for about 2 weeks. So I’ll try something organic and see if that helps.

    I have been coloring my beard for over 10 years. I have used many products. the men's product just don't work as well as the ladies. I use to have dark brown and now at 70, I would have WHITE hair. So i would recommend trying several different products to find out which one works best. The reason I use a women's product is that one does not have to use the entire product but use a glass to mix a small amount so that an expensive product can last months. I color every two weeks, use a beard conditioner often.

    Thanks for the video! I only have a goatee, but it is long (think ZZ Top or Whisker Wars). I am 52 and do not mind the gray that I have in my whiskers, but I do realize that in my profession (teacher), there is quite a bit of ageism toward men who are not in admin after age 40 (at least locally). I am looking to change schools and districts, and have wanted to reduce my gray so my potential employer does not think that I have one foot in the grave.
    I do believe that I will leave my coloring to a professional, as my whiskers are too long...and I would make a mess. Thanks for making me not feel silly for even considering this.

  • @Pharto_Stinkus
    @Pharto_Stinkus Před měsícem +2

    I started going grey at 30. My beard was almost totally white by 45. I used to color it, because I felt like it aged me too much to have a white beard at such a young age. Recently though, I've embraced it, mostly just because I just don't enjoy the maintenance of keeping the color up. Having a full white beard at my age (54) DOES age me. It's undeniable. However, it's also kind of unique and unusual, and I've learned to love that.

  • @MarakMocam
    @MarakMocam Před rokem +1

    I just picked up something called Volt. What I got is for short beards but works really well and is extremely easy to use. Why color it? My mustache has gone really light grey so it doesn't show up very well now. It's really simple to use, a brush that's like an eyelash brush for women. Shake it, brush/blend it through & you're done - no shower/washing it off, etc. I believe they have one like it for longer beards but I"m not sure (I shopped for it based on *my* beard type). It has to be done frequently but it's really easy to use and not all chem-land, more like how women use their eyelash brushes.

    The thing with colouring beards is that you don't have to overdo it, in terms of time, quantity and shade, it is just to soften grey hairs and level discolorations. You don't have to leave the product the time required, just a couple of minutes will do to give it a fresh look without anyone noticing. Don't forget to give the eyebrows a touch too.

      Hello there Ivan. I hope you are doing well. From reading your comment I take that you know what you're talking about. I'm in my mid-40's and hace noticed that my eyebrows are thinning. In my late 30's I stated noticing that I have male pattern baldness up front. It doesn't bother me, but I'm not gonna lie, the thin eyebrows really do. I haven't done any research on this topic, but after reading your comment I figured you could possibly get me pointed in the right direction. If there is any information you could offer, I would greatly appreciate it! Take care and I hope you have a wonderful week.

    Touch of Gray beard product is hard to find in local stores the past couple years. They used to all have it, now none of them do, particularly for the beard. I have to order online. I have more gray and white in my beard than I "feel," and also people confuse my son and I for brothers, so I don't want to look older than I feel, and my face looks younger for my age (no wrinkles other than around my eyes). That's why I use the Touch of Gray. I have no desire to pretend to be 20, so this product makes me look younger than my birth certificate, and more in line with how I feel. I started using the Touch of Gray for my hair too for the same reason. I get awesomely natural looking results from both products. Very happy with them.

    Great tips: using a brush and comb to apply, how to get deeper into the thick growth, touching up with permanent dye, how to keep the adjacent skin from getting dyed... I have been using JfM Control GX for about a year. I leave it on for 20-30 minutes without skin irritation and get a rich brown with natural irregularity. The colour lasts and only requires redoing every couple of weeks to cover new growth. I used JfM Beard&Mustache a couple of months ago. My beard turned nearly charcoal black despite using the medium dark brown shade. I followed the directions to wait 5 minutes after all the hair was coated, but it must have taken me 20 or more minutes to get it applied everywhere. I have gone back to Control GX. It's the best and there is no possibility for error.

    Would be stoked to hear your opinion on the Control GX beard shampoo? The one that applies colour to greys over a period of time slowly with daily shampooing. I've had greys since i was i teen so I'm use to it; however with my beard it's tough accept. I like the salt n pepper look but with my greys they are no way uniform and are in mess all over the place! I've had a hard time enjoying the growth of my beard with how my greys look. I've used the Just for Men on my hair in the past and know how strong those chemicals are and my fascial skin can be sensitive and worried how it would react to semi or permanent dye to beard? Would you recommend the beard shampoo for someone's greys that are not uniform and a real mess everywhere?

    This is the video I've been looking for. I am substantially more gray, and the gray is in patches, almost like entire stripes of gray all the way down from cheek to the bottom. I am way nervous about a permanent color, but am interested in trying the semi permanent. I dont dislike my gray, just kinda want to tone it down a couple of notches. I have a fairly long beard so I wonder if you think there is enough product for a long beard in one unit.

      A semi permanent will tone it down a bit. Try to apply it to the Grey patches first to give it longer to process on the parts you want darker.

    My cheeks are super light and not as full, so this gave me the idea to just do the cheeks and the "mustache blending hairs" to really gage if I should go short or long for the time being. I'm not quite done filling in, but it's been getting a lot more full over the last 2 years.

    I thought about dying my salt n pepper hair & beard, so I ordered Revlon Colorsilk 100% gray coverage from Amazon. I thought I'd watch a couple of videos beforehand and yours was the first one I happened to watch. Now I'm thinking this is just another thing that's gonna take too much time away from living my life. If a girl doesn't like me because of my hair color than she's not the one for me.

      It’s honestly not that much time since it becomes like a routine every month. Which is only 12 times a year. It’s self care and perspective. Not about a girl. It’s for yourself to feel fresh and looking good.
      30 minutes of watching tv or doing something you regret like scrolling thru social media can be applied to some self love.

    I have been coloring my beard for several years. Of course, needing more and more product to do so as the grey comes in more. I have went to layering permanent coloring in with shades of brown to try and replicate a non-uniform color. My beard has never been just one color. The last thing I want is for my beard to be so colored, and I've seen this before on guys, that it's so dark and uniform that it looks fake.

    I cant use any of the beard colors as they cause me serious irritation that can last for weeks. I finally tried the women’s hair color n a box going with dark blond. Finally no more irritation. It looks more natural as well and i can get these anywhere even when I’m traveling . I have somme grey in my head and beard so i use both areas. Its a game changer. I also get over ten applications with one box . Maybe it doesn’t last quite as long but the most important thing is it looks 100 percent natural. I used Garnier 70 dark natural blonde and leave it on 30-40 mins. But i have brown hair.

    I've been dying my beard for years. I first bought Just for Men Mustache and Beard and kept the plastic tray and the little brush applicator. Later I switched to Clairol colors medium brown 615 which works good for me. It's inexpensive and on the day I dye my beard it's a nice medium brown and then a few days later it's a little lighter which works good with my hair color. I still use the plastic tray and small brush applicator from Just For Men.

      @@bradhuskers Yes you can. With the tray from Just For Men you can pour as much as you need to from the color and developer and then apply it to your beard. Do only an area or the whole beard and if you have left over close it up and save it for the next weekend. I usually do my beard every two weeks on a Saturday. Look up Clairol 615 they're inexpensive. Also there's a lighter brown and darker brown too if that's your color.

    I'm an Airbrush artist 🎨 and we learnt this at school when you overlap colours you get a third colour but always start light and work up to darker colours, usually yellow and blue makes green yellow red will make orange and so onn ,and that's another thing no one tells you at shops when asking for advice does it cause rashes or flaky itchy skin or pimples and how do you go about washing you face and does it react with beard oils etc

I tend to use the dark brown just for men just to darken my beard up for a fuller look, but tend to see even more of an orangish hue to it. Should I switch to the light brown for the blue control tone?

    In your video I learned some interesting things that I did not know about hair at the molecular level. Thanks! I colored my hair and beard for years, making it dark brown. One Summer when I was 115 I just decided to cut off my long hair that I hadn't cut in 15 years and shave my beard off. Now seemingly just in the last 2 years my beard is gone blinding White, a term that I have come up with to describe it is going full Moses. I have not cut my beard in almost a year, not even trimming it for edging it. What's interesting is when I used to color and trim my beard I would get a lot of young guys saying awesome beard man. Now that I look like I'm going to land a sleigh on your roof and hand out presents I get young women complimenting me on my beard more than I do men. It's just kind of funny. I'm grateful that I still have hair on top and that my beard starts just below my eyes and goes all the way to my toes. LOL

    Since I have dark brown hair I usually use J4M that's at least two shades lighter, usually M-35. I find that going lighter gives you a more natural coloring because not all the hairs will be a uniform brown. when all the hairs are the same color it looks unnatural ... at leat to me. I can always tell who colors their beard if their beard hairs are all uniform in color.
