Wrong colour. Fortunately no skin reaction, but medium-brown is dark brown on a white beard and NOTHING like on the box. As my hair is true medium-brown I had to shave it all off - otherwise I looked like a backwoods logger. Unless you want dark brown I would ONLY go for the light brown and much less than they recommend! Show details
Colours bud damages skin – At first I was really happy. Made me look years younger. Everyone I met told me that. But after a while, my face began to itch. And itch. So much it kept me awake at night. I can feel sores and scabs under my beard and have bled onto my pillow at night. Show details
Be bloody careful! – I'm not saying this product won't work...because it does! But It's chemicals are super powerful, and burnt my face badly! I can't believe they sell it in pharmacy's? Should be taken of the selves to protect others! You've be warned fellas Show details
Great. If you’ve started going gray… you need to try this – Male 40s I use to have a lovely beard, but my hair started going from black/dark brown to white but in patches, it seemed to complete miss the gray period. My beard looked stupid and I was really feeling my age. I never wanted to use hair dye, my Dad did and I thought he looked stupid. Now I kinda understand but I still didn’t want to use a dye.… Read more
In fact a business colleague does use a dye and it just looks so fake.
I then started getting ads for a soap but after the very few reviews for the product and high price I decided against it.
Then I thought I’d give “ Just For Men Control GX Beard Wash 118mL” a go. It was pretty cheap and what did I have to lose, I could always shave off my beard.
I’ve been using it on my muzzle area now and it’s been about 3.5 weeks, honestly I was skeptical at first but slowly I have noticed it working! My beard is still gray but not white. Smaller patches have blended into the darker areas. The beard is looking great, I’m not feeling as old. And I seem to be getting looks from the ladies again, not that I care but it’s nice.
I didn’t test it like packaging recommends. I have had some skin problems in past, you can see my previous reviews, but no issues here thankfully. I have used it every days except a couple of Sundays. My beard looks great. I feel like me again. I use it in the shower, I get my beard wet then apply and leave in for 3 mins or so then wash out. I do have a scrub daddy (product) in the shower and wipe down the area with my foot ontop after use as I have read it can stain. I have seen no stains anywhere though. Hopefully it continues to be a good product.
Good product – I find that the dye wears off after a few days. However, the applicator pen contains enough to reapply. It's easy to apply too and excess washes off after you wash your face or shower. Show details
severe chemical burns – Do not buy, read the reviews, this crap is dangerous and Im appaulled its still being sold. Left with severe chemical burn after 4 mins, skin is red, swollen, burning , blistered and weeping that much I need a towel to catch the constant dripping of fluid. Cant believe this dangerous product and company is still in operation!!!!! Show details
Didn't Work – Followed the Instructions. The Formula in my hair looked Brown. Washed My Hair, expecting A Change. But Ended Up Looking The Same With No Colour What So Ever. Total Waste Of Money Wouldn't Recommend it Show details
Hating it – It Stains the skin and goes very quickly. Old formula was better. Show details
CAUTION - Patch Test and wait 60 hours. Major chemical burns and reaction – I patch tested and waited 48 hours as described on the instructions. I then did a full application and had a terrible reaction that landed me in the emergency department (ED) at the local hospital. They pumped me full of steroids and antibiotics. My face is so swollen and raised with a red rash, it will take weeks if not months to heal. It seems… Read more
the ingredients have been altered and/or changed as many others have mentioned. I would be very cautious of this product and lean towards more natural methods that use hena as the base for the dye.
Wouldn’t recommend, burns skin! – Used it couple of times, no issues but after like 4-5 times started having skin burns, weeping blisters, redness with skin peeling off. It’s very painful and takes days to heal. I am not using this product again, should be banned can cause serious issues! Show details
Recently become allergic to it – Used it for 10 years with no probs. Start to become allergic to it since 2 months. Show details
Beware, can cause vitiligo as stated on the box! – Although the products works in terms of colouring your facial hair, it can and has in my case caused vitiligo after a few uses. Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes white patches on your skin. There is a warning on the box of the product stating this and it also states that it could be temporary or permanent. You're better of having the grays than having white patchy skin that would most likely be permanent. Show details
Despite all the reviews, this product works great, I have dark brown hair, but ginger beard. I use second darkest dye – Despite all the reviews, this product works great, how ever I have to reapply every two weeks to maintain my perfect colour. I have dark brown head hair but ginger beard. I dye it dark brown (second darkest). It ends up being slightly darker then my hair colour. In the sun you can see slight red tinge however over all beard looks dark and get a… Read more
lot of compliments. Worried about reactions? Well read the instructions and test it first unlike the Other goofballs on these reviews. I rate this product no cap! If it wasn’t for this, I’d shave my beard.

set my lips ' on fire" swelling/blisters on lips, still having "dry and cracked lips – Used previously with no issues bought a new one and got reaction. Burning and swollen lips . Cracked and bleeding has lasted for months now and barely improves. I suspect that the ingredients have been changed as never had a problem before Show details
Dark Brown or Red!! – Didn't get the allergic reaction some got. Instead my head has been itchy for about a week, feels likecI have head lice. The colour I used was Dark Brown however after about 24hrs the colour started to change to a red/brown and after a week it jusr looks red, so much so I keep getting asked why I changed my hair colour to red. I was using the… Read more
product about a year ago and this didn't occur, suggest something changed in the ingredients. Time to check out the woman's products.
Not the same product – Have used this product ten years ago and had no noticeable adverse effects. But during Covid in 2020 started to grow my beard but this time Just for Men gave me unbearable itchiness for two consecutive days on each application and left red marks on my face. Considering on each application the colour only lasted two to three days it was a constant pain. Therefore, due to the unbearable discomfort I had to shave my beard off after two weeks. Show details
Big mistake – Bored in lockdown, decided to dye my chest hair. Did patch test. 2 days no problem. Did chest hair and the next day location of patch test began to get little sores. Day after that same on my chest. Just kept getting worse.. Now two weeks later have chemical burns over all of my chest. Weeping blisters and sores. When I rinsed it off, after only… Read more
about 3 and a half minutes, anywhere the water carried the residue is now covered in burns and sores, even under my arms and the 'other places'. Glad I didn't put it in my hair or on my face! This product should be banned for the risk it carries.
Beware – Have used this product before with some itchiness. However recent application resulted in redness, severe facial pain and sore eyes. Should be immediately removed from shelves and banned as a dangerous product. Show details
Works brilliantly, but doesn't last long – I have now used this product twice and I am very happy with the result. I wash my (short) beard daily, and after 6 days the grey around my chin is starting to be very obvious again. I haven't notice any side affects. I keep it away from bare skin as much as possible. I accidentally got some on my thumb nail last use and it is still visible after a… Read more
few days. For the first few days, the appearance is excellent and my beard seem softer and fuller. I use it because I feel the mottled grey in my beard looks dirty. Yes, you definitely look and feel younger! I will apply it weekly now. It takes about 10 minutes all up.
Dangerous product- BEWARE – This product is a disgrace and should be pulled from the shelves. How they keep selling it amazes me. I have used it a few times and wondered why my lips always blistered and my face went red raw...I actually thought it was shaving rash and just dried lips. Turns out it was this horrendous product. It is dangerous and needs to be banned from sale.… Read more
I cannot see any warning on the box mentioning that your face may burn and blisters may result on lips.
Danger – After doing the 48 hr test then using it on my 3rd beard aplication my face started to itch, swell and puss. The pain was terrible. If it wasnt for covid19 I would of went to the hospital. This product needs to be pulled from the shelves. Show details
Disaster for your Face – I used this for a couple of years with no adverse effects, although it needed to be re-applied far more frequently than stated on the box. Lately, however, applying this product has caused intense itchiness, burning and blistering. JFM must have changed the chemical formula and it's been a disaster for users. I will not buy this product again in its present form. Show details

Should be banned, will burn your face off – I applied this product for 2.5 - 3 minutes - the instruction state leave it on for 5. I wasnt after a dramatic result so I left it on for half the time. However, a day later - severe itching. 2 days later - face has blistered up, puss is oozing out of my face 24/7. I had to go and see a doctor who has prescribed me antibiotics and steroid cream to try and fix this mess. Hopefully there will be no permanent damage but time will tell. Show details
Buyer Beware – My husband used this product & got chemical burns. It started as a slight irritation & a couple of hours later his skin was blistering with bubbles of puss & weeping. I’ll s extremely sore. He will need to cut his beard back to treat the burns. He’s since seen that there is a large class action in the USA. The general thought is the company has changed one of ingredients. Don’t buy it!!!!! Show details
DO NOT USE THIS CHEMICAL RUBBISH!!! – Used this a couple times in the past with no issues. Haven’t used it for over a year. Thought I’d use it again for an upcoming event. I Regret every second of this product touching my face!! It is now the 3rd day, and the welts and blisters are constantly oozing a Yellow substance resembling liquid honey. It is painful, itchy and swollen. It looks… Read more
like I have been burnt by an icy torch!! Please beware about using this product. It is a chemical concoction of pain and misery! Your face is priceless, and this product is heartless. It is disgusting that a company can put a product out in the market knowing that is causes such an adverse reaction to a large number of customers, who are unknowingly trusting this brand. Something needs to be done
Ineffective product – The product does not last for the days it claims to. After all instructions it failed to color as claimed. Upon first wash the color fades drastically. It is a waste of money I reckon. Wouldn't recommend to anyone. Show details
Chemical Burns from beard product 16/06/20 – I have just returned from the doctor with a prescription for cortisone and antibiotics after a stage 2 infectious burn caused by applying this product to my beard. A patch test was undertaken, but allergy to PPD in the product is activated on a first use but not evident until a second. And sometimes it takes 48 hours to start to literally burn. Show details
Terrible - you will itch for days – My husband used this product (February 2020) and it burned his scalp and his face. You will itch for days after using this product. Please note - he previously used this product with great success so it's extremely disappointing that they've obviously changed the recipe which has caused a pretty severe reaction. This product needs to be pulled from the shelves!!! Show details
Never again! Will burn your face!!!! – I used this product to cover up a grey patch on my chin. Was all good after 2 uses, but then I noticed my skin turn red and was very itchy. My chin started to swell and bubble, leaking yellow liquid. I ended up shaving my beard off so I could apply moisturizer in hopes my skin will recover. Not sure if my hair will grow back as yet. Dangerous product. I do not recommend at all. Show details
Warning - this may burn your face – I have been using this product for over one year, all good until recently. September 2018. I telephoned the number of the back of the product, the lady was very polite, explained to her that my face burnt, blistering around moustache, severe burning under chin and jaw line. She said your skin pigmentation changes over time and to no longer use the… Read more
product and offered a full refund which did NOT receive. I had to leave the beard for two weeks using cold water only and at night putting a lot of ' Curash with Cornstarch ' product on my face. I would NOT recommend this product, and it seems that only recently everyone is having the same problem. Read the following www site https://www.consumeraffairs.com/cosmetics/just_for_men.html
I now use a natural product from GO VITA stores - https://www.aromaganic.com/permanent-hair-colour/ no 3.0 Although it is a hair dye, but this works for me. I used a pea sized amount of equal amounts of the two ingredients to use in a small like like 15 ml cap that is on top of a cough syrup bottle, mix together with cotton tip to form a paste, brush on beard with a small very fine brush on beard. I found it went like a purple colour in the 5 minutes but when i washed it out no more then 10 minutes it worked with no burning.
WARNING: This product will burn your face – I used this product and followed instructions on the box, after 2 days I had a severe allergic reaction to it, I ended up in hospital twice, I had to take 2 weeks off work and incurred hundreds of dollars in medical expenses, I have medical evidence, photos, etc. I contacted customer care in Melbourne (combe.com) and for the last 3 months the lady… Read more
there keeps on saying that she 'has forwarded my concern to the US' over and over, I was only seeking compensation for loss of work and expenses incurred but unfortunately the business has not been forthcoming with any solutions other than excuses, it was only after the severe reaction that I learned that there are hundreds of law suits against the company in the US, all you you need to do is search for 'just for men allergic reaction' and see for yourself.
