Just For Men Control GX Grey Reducing Shampoo, 5 Fluid Ounce

Okay look, there are a few things you need to know before using this product:1. First and foremost, I rarely give 5 stars for anything but I am extremely satisfied with this product. For me, it’s the right color and works perfectly with my bathing routine.2. (I never do..because I’m a dummy) TEST the product on a small area of skin FIRST. No harm in returning it if it doesn’t work for you.3. This product DOES work. It’s not magic. You will notice a difference even after the first use. Depending upon how many times you use the shampoo is the secret. I could imagine one using this only once a month for a very subtle change in color. I could imagine one using it every other day for dramatic results.4. You MUST WEAR GLOVES. You can pick these up at any beauty store/walmart/Walgreens/amazon. Never EVER try without as it will stain your fingernails and fingers. Also, guys who work out and have callouses, it will penetrate those and stain as well. Avoid all this by taking the time to put on a parIr of 2 cent gloves.5. Just like with any hair dye, the longer you leave it In, the more dramatic effect. Personally, I only use when needed and I *never let it sit on my head for longer than 60 seconds. Trust me on this one guys. That is, unless you want to go really dark (and noticeable). I think the point of this product is to gradually lose the grey as opposed to just showing up to work the next day with all the grey magically gone.6. A little goes a long way. You don’t need anymore than a dime size blob to work. Why waste it? Save yourself some money.7. For all the people who are claiming it’s making the, bald, personally in call BS, BUT every person is different. Perhaps it’s true it causes hair loss, which is why I suggest you test it before using it. But again, for me, no problems at all with hair loss.8. Another great thing about the shampoo is it’s no fuss. Just shampoo as normally and presto changeo. I wouldn’t suggest using with another shampoo except to condition it after use. The next day when you’re not using it, shampoo and condition normally of course.9. Lastly, the fact that the color is *subtle*, I believe is the products strength. Subtlety is key for a lot of guys who don’t want to “look like they dye their hair” (though obviously nothing is wrong with it, even makeup on guys too!)I’m 100% satisfied with this product and will be using it for a while—well, so long as I have hair.

First of all, the people with red or blonde hair who complain...the box specifically mentions this if for brown to black hair, so take those reviews with a grain of salt.Now onto why I feel this works almost too well (and it is my fault why).The package says to use daily for 1 minute each day, and to stop when your hair reaches a shade that is right for you (I'm a medium to medium dark brown).Well, I used this daily for about 6 or so days, 1 minute each day in the shower.After the first day, I didn't notice anything (but also didn't expect to), so I continued using it each day.During this time, I completely forgot to scrutinize my hair for any changes.Well, by the 6th day, as I was towel drying my hair, I noticed that it seemed thicker than usual, AND darker!This stuff pretty much took out all the grays on the top and back of my head, probably much earlier than I had noticed, and turned it to a VERY dark brown - not quite black, but almost.The reason I hadn't noticed, is because I was paying attention to my gray temples, which didn't seem affected...but DAMN did it do a helluva job on the rest.Now, I see in other reviews, some people complaining about it not working on the back and sides of their heads.Again, the box clearly states that this shampoo is NOT intended to REMOVE all gray hair. It is meant to GRADUALLY color your hair so people don't notice that your hair changed overnight. In this, it succeeds 100%.Also, I didn't really want to remove all the gray from my temples, and it looks MUCH more natural this way.Had I checked more during the first 5 days, I probably would have matched my natural hair color perfectly...again, MY fault, not the shampoo's.So, if you have brown to black hair, and don't want to eliminate gray, but reduce it (as the package clearly states), this stuff is phenomenal, and I highly recommend it.How can they make it better? Well, I tried this on my beard as well, but to zero effect. That being said, it doesn't claim to work on beards...I just wish it did.I hope they make a similar product that works on beards.Excellent product...5 well earned stars.

This product actually works and it's pretty awesome. I have been going grey since my mid 20's so I have used Just for Men beard and mustache and the hair dye for a very long time. Both work but they really make it too dark to look natural. They basically dye the skin and that makes your beard and hair look ridiculous for a couple of days until the skin under the beard shows up lighter. I am 42 years old, not 22 so it's hard to believe that I have super dark hair or a super dark beard that doesn't match my eyebrows which are light brown. I am also thin on top so I do shave my hair periodically which leaves the top and sides very short. This product is perfect because it dyes the roots so when I do shave it close, it is still brown not grey. It does work on beards and mustaches and it is way easier than trying to brush in the gel.This product slowly changes the color so it's not too obvious and it doesn't dye the skin as long as you don't keep it on too long. I usually keep it on 2-3 minutes rather than the one minute as my hair and beard is somewhat resistant to hair dyes. Tile and shower won't stain so long as you wash off it off after rinsing and don't scrub your head like normal shampoo. Lightly massage in and then wait a couple of minutes. It did stain the cracks of my fingers which only looks now like I work on cars. It did lightly stain my fingernails but who cares, nobody is looking at my fingers anyway. Totally worth it. Took around 9 days to get the effect I wanted. A little grey is cool. Dyed skin not cool. Now I don't look like I am in my 50's.
