BLACKBEARDfor Men - temporary brush on colour 12ml 0.40oz (Dark Brown, 1 Pack)

Nice easy to use and do the job.Covers up all white hair instantly.

I used to use JFM until it nearly burned a hole in my top lip, underneath my moustache! I always liked the overall coverage it gave me but healthwise, it can be dangerous, so time for a change. I now use a henna dye which is good and natural, but I've tried a couple and they do fade quite quickly. However, they're good as an undercolour to Blackbeard and if, like me, you like a dark beard, then Blackbeard is good. Quick-drying and with only a few quick brushes, you'll get good dark volume and colour back through your beard. It can feel a bit clumpy and stuck together initially, but that's understandable when you're first trying it and you may need time to determine how much to use on each application. No matter, once dry, just take a thin-toothed comb and brush through carefully; however, you really do need to determine what's important to you - if you want good appearance with volume and coverage, or if you're a bit too hung up instead, on how it feels. In addition, I haven't had any staining on shirt collars, pillows etc. I have a full beard and it works well with the henna dye underneath. I still think it would be good if you have some or a lot of natural colour in your beard and you just want to tidy away the areas of grey. I have a tendency to fiddle about with my beard while checking work on my computer, so the more you do that, the quicker it will thin, I imagine. But, say you're heading out to socialise and you notice your beard could use a tidy, and quickly, I think this would be good. For what it is and does, I like it. Like everything in life, you have to try it... ;-).

This stuff is really good. Easy to apply (less than a minute for a whole beard) and lasts virtually all day. Just For Men also do one these beard sticks, but this is better. It lasts longer, looks more natural on, and doesn't flick off the applicator brush. Yes, you have to apply it everyday if you want to keep the look, and you will lose 40-60% of the colour overnight (depending on what sort of night you have) but it's super easy to apply, so it really shouldn't be a big deal for anyone. I also apply it to side-burns and could be used on eyebrows.The one thing I don't particularly like is the feel of it when it's on. Makes your beard feel a bit tacky to touch, so it's best not to overdo the application.

I dye my beard but can’t use JFM and similar products without having a horrible allergic reaction. So I’m forced to use henna, unfortunately no matter what I always end up with some slight discolouring doing this. This product is great to go over and mask this, it washes off but does a great job and lasts a long time.However recently I noticed that the product has suffered from some stealth shrinkage - see photo!. Knocking off 2 stars.

This is a great product for a daily colour touch up but it comes off with any type on touching from clothing or material so you have to reapply and use a fair bit so it doesn’t last long, yet it’s increased by over 30% in the last couple of months which just makes it unviable. Really disappointing to have to give this product up.

Difficult to clean and reassemble, avoid.

“I’ve been using Blackbeard for Men for almost six years, and it’s fantastic. After dealing with chemical burns from other products like Just for Men, I found this gem on Amazon. It only lasts for a day, but applying it each morning takes just one to two minutes. A helpful trick I found: after dipping the stick into the solution, wipe off the excess from the brush with a tissue to avoid too much product. Apply gently to the hair, avoiding the skin, for the best results. It’s very waterproof—I’ve worn it in the rain and even in a swimming pool, and it stayed on great. I apply it every morning, but even if I forget and need to apply it quickly before karate class, it doesn’t rub off onto my white karate gi. Highly recommend this quick and effective beard dye!”

Decent product and good at covering up greys. Easy to apply and results look great.
