Just For Men Shampoo-In Color (Formerly Original Formula), Mens Hair Color with Keratin and Vitamin E for Stronger Hair - Dark Brown, H-45, Pack of 3

I was using the comb-in version of this JFM hair dye for years. Just switched over to this shampoo version, and it works much better. Less mess, less smell, shorter time in hair, and it did a much better job of covering the grays. The comb-in version would leave black specs everywhere, smelled awful, and I frequently had to redo the procedure.

does the job but be careful because it could get messy, I suggest put petroleum jelly on forehead, ears and part of neck in case you get paint on those areas it will easily wash off.

1. Use the included gloves (or better disposable gloves) when massaging the thing in your hair. I messed up the first time and though I just needed the gloves to shake the two small containers and pour one into the other. Fortunately no real harm - the dye came off my hands with a little orange oil solvent, other than a little brown shading on my fingernails for the next few days.2. Be careful with the mix after you combine bottle 1 and 2. Although it does not stain immediately, a little (say gotten on your cell phone outer skin when using it as a timer) can say mess up the outer skin a bit. But being a bit sloppy on skin (almost unavoidable with the gloves) does no real harm and does not stain my face.3. You may not want follow instructions exactly. If you massage it in well and leave it in for 4-5 minutes (if you use average shampoo), you may want to re-dose (if you have medium length male hair) after about 3 weeks.My solution: Go a shade lighter. BUT wait for 6 to 6.5 minutes (instead of 5). I start by putting the goop on the parts of my head that are more grey the lower sides) to give it more time. THEN apply the rest of the bottle while massaging things in a bit at the same time. Then start the timer. Then massage the goop in for the first few minutes of the timer. It will (as a result of the extra time) be a bit darker for the first couple weeks than you may really want (with possibly just the slightest hint of red too), but you may get 8+ weeks before you feel a need to re-dose (if you are OK with a slight touch of grey visible in certain areas).It will be, of course, more grey underneath as your hair grows out - so 8+ weeks or a fresh haircut after 4 weeks, whichever comes first.Note: the above technique may NOT work OK unless you are OK with very dark brown. As my natural hair is dark brown and dark brown is my goal (vs something more subtle), the longer-is-ok trick is not that hard to pull off. For me, as long as the grey is gone and the hair on my head basically matches my eyebrows, I am good enough. Do note that for the first couple weeks (in particular with the extra long coloring soak-in method), the extra uniform hair coloring will make things look a bit "fake" but no enough that people will really notice or care in any normal job.Note: best not to apply within a few hours of washing your hair normally. At least with me (within a few hours) will cause my scalp to sting a bit for the first day. Better if you do it on (obviously) dry hair that has not been washed for at least 12 hours (reduces any stinging).Note: I understand that if you screwed up bigtime, there are ways to lighten things that can work in the first 24 hours (such as washing in some lemon juice or shampooing the cr-p out of it a bunch of times with more harsh than normal shampoo).Overall - fairly easy, fast and reasonably priced.

My hair color it’s better now

Great color coverage in just a few minutes. This lasted me about three weeks and as a fraction of a professional hair color.

great product have been using it for years

Product received promptly, product is what the presented it as. Thanks

Doesn’t work like expected. When you look close this turns your hair a golden color even if leaving it on longer and applying multiple times to get the correct color. It does look better than before but it is deceiving to think it turns dark brown.
