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.

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.

Hey Matty!! Hi from a fellow Vancouverite!! I just found your channel recently when I decided to create my own beard oil, balm, butters, and washes, as I don't like the scents (and high cost) of most of the commercial ones. In my research, of course, the algorithm starts suggesting similar and your channel popped up. Thank you for ALL your great content!! Much appreciated and have already used some of your tips for shaping etc., and my beard is already looking better (self taught here so some professional input helps a lot!!) This was a great video.. The idea of using the semi-permanent over the permanent is a great tip for the top line as it will hopefully fade before the beard starts to look like it is floating (if one is very gray) the beard grows out before one has the chance to touch up the colour. Once my beard has grown out some, I may come by and have one of your senior barbers give me a professional baseline that I can maybe maintain at home. I am pretty good at DIY but not sure if I have shaped my outline properly so would like to see a professional shape it. My last comment is to thank you for the eye-candy. You are a handsome man to begin with, but seeing you shirtless out of the shower was quite a delightful addition... don't blush!! You are a sexy man and you should flaunt it...!! You got a sub from me!! (wink) Take care my friend and thanks again for everything!!

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.

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.

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.

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 used to think like you but now I take time out everyday and week to put in some effort. It makes a difference in every aspect of life. Have good day

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.

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.

I have a fairly long beard so I wonder if you think there is enough product for a long beard in one unit.

@bluegryp 8 ай бұрын

I know this is an old video but in case you’re still looking for advice, here’s what I do. I use just for men. I have a mostly grey beard but my natural color is dark brown. For me i need to leave it on for 20 mins or it ends up being really light brown. You may have to play around with the time and see what works for you. Anyway, I do what he says in the video and outline by beard on my cheeks and neck with Vaseline to minimize the staining. It’s still going to stain your skin though, and since it’s so short, you’re going to see it through your beard, as you know. So to get that off, i get a washcloth and use bar soap to kind of scrub the whole beard area. I wash and rinse twice. Then once I wash it off the second time, I use a product called roux clean touch with cotton balls to remove anything left. You just have to keep wiping till it fades. As for the irritation to your skin, I don’t have a solution for that other than to really moisturize after you’re done. I do get mildly red for a bit but i try and time my dying on my day off so I have a day to recover so to speak. It also helps to do it at night so you have overnight for the redness to go away. I suppose if you get really red this won’t be a solution but it works for me since I just get slightly red. My irritation goes away after a few hours. I usually dye my beard once a week. By the end of the week my grey starts reappearing significantly. Hope this helps. There may be better methods but this is what i’ve come up with using trial and 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?

I wish I could see a good tutorial on dying a naturally blond beard turning white. It just seems like all the beard dye I've ever used is diluted brown and makes the white look ashy taupey and almost purplish. The only good result I've had is dying the white brown then bleaching it. But the bleach burns my skin too much to maintain that color plus the bleach makes my beard coarse and brittle. Is there no pigment that's actually a blond color with a gold undertone? Everything is ashy or red.

Hey Matt....any other suggestions on sharp trimmers?? I've been looking for the right one for a long time, especially from the drugstores. 🙏🏾‼️

Thx so much for the beard video. It was very informative. I've been colouring my beard for the past few years. If I don't it would be mostly white! Are you saying to not only use the Just for Mean Beard and Moustache? This is has been my method. It doesn't seem to last so long tho. I have never washed my beard first. I'll give this a try today!

Nice video only have a couple questions that doesn’t get mentioned in the video. When is it safe to use a heated brush after coloring my beard. And when to use any beard oil and butter?

Great instructional video, very informative. Just curious, in the last scene, your beard looked much more uniform than in the previous scene where you were doing your final trim. The areas where you used the semi-perm color was a lighter color than the rest of your beard. Did you go back and use the permanent color on the other areas?

Strange I didn’t notice that. No I didn’t I think the lighting was just different.

What would you recommend for someone with alopecia on their face? I have a lot of white coarse hairs in spots

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.

Yikes to the Mite 😂 I'm glad I stumbled on your video as I've been growing a beard. Unfortunately, it's got more salt than pepper. However, I've been told it looks distinguished! Thanks for the info. It is very helpful. Aloha from Maui🤙

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.

Excellent video as usual! Matt, your hair is amazing in this video, what product are you putting into it to maintain the swept look on the sides and preventing your top length from falling down the sides?

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.

@@mattyconradgrooming Quick question What would you apply to seal the color in if you're using a touch up color applied with what looks like an eye lash applier, but it's for touch up. I don't want it to wipe off quick, nor get it on my lady when kissing, etc. Any idea? Thanks in advance, great video.

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.
