Organic & Natural Black Beard Dye

This product is excellent, and it gives me results that go beyond my wildest expectations. Before Grizzly Mountain, I had tried chemical dyes but had to stop due to the itching they caused after some time. Grizzly Mountain causes me no irritation whatsoever. I use the dark brown, mixed in with some natural brown, and the effect is awesome, very natural. I dye my beard once a week (it’s very short). I start with the base (I let it sit for 30 minutes and then rinse under the shower) and follow on with the dye (35-40 minutes, then ditto). It’s sort of a weekly evening ritual, kind of meditative even. Given the results, the time investment is totally worth it, a no brainer for me. Here’s how I apply it. I mix the dye with water close to boiling point (I make sure that the paste doesn't become watery; it should have the consistency of thick ketchup); apply the paste with the brush provided in the packet; and work the paste into the beard evenly with my fingers. I then cover the beard with cling wrap, so the paste won't dry out and will easily come off under the shower. The longer one lets the dye sit (not the base), the darker the beard gets. I haven’t experienced the “green beard” effect some have written about and which is mentioned in the instructions on the box. The beard darkens somewhat overnight, so you’ll see the full effect when you look into the mirror in the morning. Some reviewers have complained about the smell, which is somewhat grassy. Personally, I have no problem with it – it doesn’t bother either me or my girlfriend one bit. Now that I'm used to the dye, I hardly even notice the smell.

I was desperate for this to work and with my hopes up with the reviews I have been trying for three weeks now. It did not give me an allergic reaction and I love the just mix with water idea but the positives end there. After the really long twenty minutes this dries into something close to concrete. The mess it creates is monumental. Hair that doesn't lay totally flat on the skin isn't coloured. It's impossible to cover hair on the chin. After all those efforts... the hair goes green for two days. Then orange for another two days. Then it goes back to grey. It doesn't look natural it looks stupid. I will also try the dark brown before I go back to irritated skin but normal looking beard. Update: I have been trying the dark brown for a couple of weeks and I am much happier with it, less green and orange and seems to last a few more days.

I began using JFM but have sensitive skin. I had slight burn after a few uses so decided to stop immediately. I looked at a few natural items and saw this brand available on Amazon. I initially used the dark brown. It didn’t work well. I was getting orange colour on my grey hairs and only lasting a couple of days. I was about to give up but thought I would try the black dye. This has worked great with no irritation. With this product, it took some practice and trial and error to get things the way I wanted. I have a relatively short beard (number 6 on my Remington beard trimmer) and I colour it every 5 days. It’s not as straight forward as chemical dyes but I have found it works just as well. The first thing to mention is that this does take longer. If you need the base then it can take up to an hour whereas the JFM only stayed on for 2 minutes. I find it best to use this around doing something else as opposed to just sitting around waiting to wash it off. The second thing to mention is that this does not work like chemical dyes. This will only colour what it is physically in contact with. Therefore, you have to make sure you cannot see any hair sticking out of the application. It has to be thick with the beard fully underneath the mixture. I find that my beard darkens immediately but continues to get darker over the next 8 hours. I don’t personally get any of the green or purple mentioned. This colour is a dark black and darker than my natural beard. There is no guarantee that the dye will work. You may need to use the base. The dye has not worked for me without the base. I have done some trial and error and I can mix my base in with the black and use it in one application. This is not how they recommend it is used but works for me and I half the time. It works better if you use the base and colour separately but I’m happy with the result and I prefer to have a few grey hairs here and there as it looks more natural. If I use separately then I can get 100% black beard. One of the great things about this compared to chemical products is that this does not colour your skin. I have no irritation at all. I previously had dry skin under my beard but using this product has meant I no longer have dry skin. It’s also worth noting that this product requires a lot less time on the beard than similar natural products which say they need to be on for anywhere between 4 hours to overnight. All in all very happy with this and I like that it is natural.

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.

Excellent! I’ve tried similar before after Just for M! JFM was horrible and burned me every time I used it. Also I suspect JFM and similar chemical dyes are carcinogenic so it was imperative I found a working solution. I had a few options 1) Go grey gracefully 2) Shave the beard off (I’m bald so I wouldn’t look great with that option!) the little bit of looks I did manage to rescue by growing a small neat beard many years ago would be hard to give up. So I consulted Grok and it suggested this Grizzly Mountain Dye. It made promises so I ordered and I used it today (Friday) Absolutely brilliant and I can tell already it works better than the other henna dye I tried. I didn’t bother with the base and to be honest I haven’t a clue what that’s for but it was just another step that I couldn’t be bothered with. I mixed in a small glass bowl a good heap of the powder and put in freshly boiled kettle water after letting it cool slightly first. Have that a good mix until about toothpaste consistency. I painted it on with the included brush and went and watch the snooker on TV for half an hour. This is where the magic happened. Grok told me to rinse with water only no soap no shampoo! A step I didn’t adhere to before. It wasn’t strong enough to remove all so then I got a hot face cloth and light mild soap and washed my face as you do. Then the greeny tinge got less and less. I realised previously I may have been harshly washing out the dye mixture with strong shampoos so it was great to see the green tinge left on the beard. It was pretty green and would be noticeable but I have noticed a few hours later it is starting to oxidise into a brilliant dark brown. I have to say guys, no cancer causing chemicals and a nice dark brown beard. It should oxidise further and the green tinge should fade but all in all I am absolutely delighted and I’m switching to this completely as a once a week ritual. That’s my tips as a born again henna / indigo user! I’ve picked up a few pointers so just remember don’t harshly washing with shampoo after the 30 mins, gently remove with warm water leaning over the bath and then finish with a hot face cloth and mild soap if required. Better to do it in the evening, it’s not an instant thing where you can do this and go straight to work as you will have the green tinge. I give 5 stars for this and I can now have a nice colour rather than grey without any health concerns. That really puts my mind at rest so thank you!

There doesn’t seem to be any guaranteed outcome with this product relative to your Beard coarseness and colouring etc. I’m a 61 year old guy , fair skinned and back in the day my head hair was plentiful but fine. I’ve had the mandatory 5” centre parting for years and an almost pure white goatee. Tried JFM years ago and thought l’d end up getting a face transplant the reaction was so bad so a non chemical based product like Grizzly had great appeal. I bought the light brown which would have been closest to my original beard colour before Father Time changed all that .Very easy to use. As others have said it’s like having grass cuttings or perhaps wet spinach plastered on your face. I actually didn’t mind that as l watched TV for the recommended 30 mins. Problem for me was colour. Tried it 1st using purely the dye and it didn’t really take then l tried the base followed by the dye and beard went green. Left it 24 hrs and still green. Tried dye again , then it went red with still hint of green. Following morning l was Au Naturale as the greenish hue would not go away. You’ll see the progression in the pics. The one where lm wearing the blue jumper perhaps looks best however this was taken in good daylight at a window and almost looks natural. However when l turn back into the room and look in a mirror under artificial light it was greenish red. Fair play to the guys who make this stuff. It’s easy to apply, doesn’t irritate -and l have very sensitive skin - but l just couldn’t get rid of the greenish hue. It’s definitely worth a try as it might work for you , sadly not for me , possibly as my beard follicles were so white. 1 week later still clean shaven for 1st time in 40 years.:) Good luck

I first tried just for men and the PPD in it literally burnt my face with yellow sores and the pain was unbearable. I had to put germaline on it for a week just to sleep and relieve the pain. I was worried getting this product and thought shall I just put up with the grey. I chanced it and did it by the book on a Friday night and I put the first application on late Friday, it didn’t make much colour difference after the first application but as the leaflet said you have to break in your beard like breaking in a horse. I used two large spoons full on Saturday and caked it on like an artist and left for exactly 30 minutes on a stopwatch. It is like having green grass or green tea on your face the smell isn’t the best. But once dry washed off with special beard soap and then spot on most of the grey gone and no itching/pains or discomfort or yellow scabs like I got from the crap just 4 men which will never touch my face again. So far this beard dye is amazing and no reaction or pain or discomfort and don’t need the 2nd pack that came with it as my beard has been trained and broken in and I’m very happy with the end result

"I followed every single step in the instructions. I applied the base for over 30 minutes and then the dye for nearly an hour. The result? Absolutely nothing. My white beard hair is still white. I even tried a second application immediately after, and it still didn't work. It's a messy process that leaves your face looking like it's covered in charcoal for two hours, all for zero results. Since the packs are now opened, I can't even return it. Total waste of money and time. Stay away if you have stubborn white hairs!"

Very good colour. After applying 20min keep it and than washing it. The light brown color come after 24h in full color. Only natural ingredients.

It's really, really good. I like the fact that it can leave some of the thicker hair a lighter colour, so that you end up with a very natural blend, (and as no one's beard is really uniform, its a very realistic look). Best bit is that its very non-toxic, and does not stain your skin, (For God's sake, don't use just-for-men, that stuff has a moderately high probability of burning your face). (BTW, the skin stain of those other chemical dyes should lift with baby oil or moisturizer on a cotton wool ball). But, like most things, you do *need* to read the instructions. The few who complain here maybe didnt give it overnight to work, or didn't follow the process. If it doesnt seem to do much the first time or two, use the oxidiser, (the 2nd smaller packet) which kind of prepares the beard, *then* use the standard stuff. You'll get the results you want! Tips: I found I had to use the oxidising agent pack once to start off the process, (slightly different mix of the dye in a smaller pack, works really well), and leave the dye (either the oxerdiser or the main dye) in for 30 mins. (They recomend 15-30). Doing that, I got really good results. It can fade after a few days and the colour then looks like a really natural blend of light and dark. Be aware that the dye makes your beard get darker over the first 12 hours, (or overnight), so it's often best to do it before you go to bed or a friday afternoon or similar. Dont be put off if you've followed the instructions and it doesnt seem very different the first few times. You do need to give it a few (6?) hours to work at least, and you'll then likely be pleased and surprised! All of this is covered in the instructions, follow them and it should work really well! Do not mix with an alcohol/ethanol based after shave. That will change the tint of the dye. Moisturizer will generally remove colour from any dyed hair. Keep it away from the edge of your beard, or hair. Edit: I recently started leaving it in 45 mins, (while I checked my email), and generally a little longer gives you a darker shade, (that lasts a few more days (I get close to 1-2 weeks before they gray grows out underneath). The more you use it, the better it gets, and the more effective at colouring your facial hair.

Definitely recommend. I’ve tried a few other dyes before and always had allergic reactions, but this one worked great with no issues at all. I used the dark brown shade and it looks natural. Just make sure to read the instruction (it should be paste like when you apply), it takes a few hours before you see the colour change.

Die meisten Bart- bzw. Haarfärbemittel enthalten Substanzen, die bei vielen Menschen zu Allergien führen. Dieses Bartfärbemittel besteht aus natürlichen Substanzen und eignet sich auch für Menschen, die auf die üblichen Bartfärbemittel mit schweren allergischen Reaktionen reagieren. Es gibt das Mittel in vier verschiedenen Farbvarianten. Jeder Bart reagiert anders auf das Mittel. Daher muss man ein bisschen herumprobieren. Ähnlich wie bei einem ungefärbten Bart bleibt der Bart nach dem Färben ein bisschen uneinheitlich. So ist auch bei der Farbe "schwarz" nicht ein pechschwarzer Bart zu erwarten, wie es bei synthetischen Mitteln der Fall ist. Das Ergebnis wirkt dadurch natürlicher. Die Reaktion des Barts auf das Mittel ist nicht vorhersehbar. Daher sollte der Erstanwender das Mittel möglichst vor einem Wochenende benutzen. Es kann insbesondere bei der schwarzen Variante zu einem leichten Violett- oder Grünstich kommen. Das verliert sich bei wiederholter Anwendung. Es ist oft besser, zunächst eine hellere Farbe zu verwenden, z. B. Hell- oder Mittelbraun. Zudem kann man die einzelnen Farben auch mischen, z. B. ein Teelöffel schwarz und zwei Teelöffel dunkelbraun. Außerdem sollte man sich darüber im Klaren sein, dass das Mittel mindestens einmal in der Woche angewandt werden sollte, um abrupte Farbwechsel zu meiden.
