Q: I use just for men jet black for my beard. Can I use this shampoo in between my cycles?

submitted by Health4life - 6 months ago
  • A: For best results, we recommend choosing either Just For Men Mustache & Beard Gel or Control GX Beard Wash as your go-to hair color solution. Each is designed to deliver consistent, natural-looking results on its own when used regularly. To maintain optimal performance and color integrity, it’s best to stick with one system rather than switching between products.

    Reduced effectiveness

    I have been using this product for two years but am now dissapointed by its lack of effect. It appears that new formulations have reduced the amount of dye such that it has minimal effect. It is evident from the lack of colour draining away when the shampoo is washed out. Is it a cynical attempt to make customers to use more of it?

    Why oh why did you mess it up?

    I have been a user for years, but it appears the formula has changed. There used to be color in the shampoo and when you rinsed, it would be dark. This isn't true anymore. It does nothing except make my hair a little bit orange. I am so unhappy

    New formula with keratin is terrible!

    I've used the product for years, been a happy, repeat customer. Since they changed the formula and added keratin the product stains my scalp, extremely noticeable. Not to mention my fingernails. Please go back to the old formula or offer a keratin free option.
    1 reply from Just For Men Team team - 3 months ago
    Hi! We’re sorry to hear about your experience with Control GX. You can protect your hairline and neck by applying a thin, even layer of petroleum jelly or conditioner to the area. As these products are typically oil based, they prevent the dye from sticking to your skin and are easily washed off when rinsing the color from your hair. If you end up with stains, you can use soap and water or a hair coloring stain remover. Any nail staining, gently clean with toothpaste and a toothbrush. If you still experience nail staining, use disposable gloves.

    Using JFM for decades

    I began using just for men, I believe in the 80s. Although it did the job, it was difficult to get a proper hair color. Too dark mostly. I switched to the shampoo about seven or eight years ago and what a difference. It is incredibly easy and I use it now about once a week. I have only one question to the experts. I get a haircut about every 5 to 6 weeks. When I do, gray shows up after the haircut and patches. It takes me quite a while to darken those back again. When I am using the shampoo, I dig in to the scalp, trying to make sure I am coloring every part of my hair, but to no avail, I still get the gray patches after a haircut. Even the haircutter will ask me, “do you color your hair“? Any suggestions?

    Not mixed well?

    The product works but the start of the tube is tan color, at the end is almost black. I shake and shake before opening and before every use. This has been the same last 5 purchases. Can't believe this is normal?
    1 reply from Just For Men Team team - 5 months ago
    Hi! The lighter color of the new tube is correct. It is typical for the product to develop some darker streaks as it is used, and this will not impede results. We’d like to hear more about it! Please call us at 1-800-431-2610.

    Excellent product! This is my fourth purchase, and I’m still using it alongside other products with no issues—no scalp irritation or reactions at all. Just looking better and better, as my wife saying.

    Stopped working

    We have been buying this product. for over 10 years. But the last batch is not the same any more. It does not color your hair even after 30 min wearing it around the house.

    Hi, Ivanna! We're sorry to hear that. Control GX works gradually. Use it once a day every day until you get to the coverage you like. It should be applied to wet hair, left on for 1-2 minutes, and then rinsed off.

    Not the results I expected. Cannot see much difference after using a full amount over a few months.
    1 reply from Just For Men Team team - 7 months ago
    Hi Bill! We’re sorry Control GX is not working. The product works gradually, adding a little color with each use. We recommend you use it daily until you get your desired results, then you can use it 3-4 times a week to maintain the results. We hope this helps!

    Unreal product!!

    Amaizing how advanced hair products have become! I used it as prescribed and started seeing a difference in 3 days! Nails went a little light purple at first, so massage in and rinse fingers, then rub again! 10 days in and totally amazed!!

    Changed Formula poor Results

    Began using product 4 years ago. It never bubbled up like real shampoo as the packet photo suggests, but it did the job. About 10 momnths-2 years ago, the product produced zero bubbles, it turned my grey a ginger colour. Fake and embarrassing. Can only suggest they are saving money, or like the old Restoria, chemicals have been changed because of physical danger. Anyone know better replacement, please? As for the question below asking for a rating of the value, if the product does not do the job, then it is an expensive waste of money regardless of how much you outlay.

    Easier and neater than the comb-in product

    I have used the comb-in product for years. I prefer the shampoo product since it is much easier to use, not as messy.
