Grizzly Mountain Beard Dye - The Organic Base

The organic base is part of a kit sold by the manufacturer. A while back I was a user of a standard beard dye on the market, you know, exclusively for males. After using the commercial product for years, I began to develop horrible allergic reactions ( weeping sores) and had to discontinue. Enter Grizzly, I have been a happy user for two years now and very satisfied. Initially, I had to "break-in" my beard to the product using the organic base- although each person is different-not everyone needs it ( The manufacturer instructions ask to try without it and use if you need assistance for "breaking in" your tough beard). The organic base helps provide a specific tone range and probably helps the absorbency of the beard and a small amount is given with the standard kit. Recently I found myself using the organic base consistently so I ordered a package of it separately. Give these folks a try. Your beard will look natural and you won't get "burned" by harsh chemicals. Comes in powdered form appears to be all natural vegetable and mineral pigment dyes. Instructions are clear and you can contact them for additional support ( I don't usually - still its nice to know the option is there)

Here is my review. Short, simple, and honest. I was using JFM for roughly 5-6 years and began experiencing exactly what has probably brought you here to this product, ie, facial rash and irritation. A nurse friend of mine warned me of recent cancer warnings linked to JFM. So, onward and forward...I have used Grizzly Dye three times to date. My first time was this base followed by the black dye. I have a black beard that is pretty damn grey as I have just turned 40. I first washed my face with natural face wash. Applied the base for roughly 25 minutes then washed off with the same natural face wash. I then applied the dye for about the same amount of time as the base. Washed off with same natural face wash. Now, here is the thing to remember. Don't judge this product after that last wash off. This stuff is true to its instructions. It really does "set" overnight. Your beard may be slightly off colored as it states...but look in the mirror every hour or so and watch it change!! This completely covers up my greys!! A great, all natural tool for my anti-aging toolbox!! Try this and I promise you will never look back!!

Works as is. 30 minutes and done. Best color the next day. Ok the first day but slightly darker the next day. Was going to use brown over the top of this, but liked this color as is. Had terrible reactions to other dyes. This one just works and is gentle on the skin!

We found this product to be a great alternative to just for men. It did not blister my husband’s face and provided a good color and made is beard soft It does come with some cons though. My husband had to color his beard every 4 days, it completely lost its luster and the beard oils seemed to rid his beard of color. If he did not color as often the dark part of his beard turned magenta and gray had hints of green so it was kinda looking a little like Christmas. Unfortunately he had to stop using it. We did find that Just For Men creates a beard shampoo that does a great job (for now) coupled with using Clairol natural with no ammonia once a month does the trick.

Honestly, it didn't work all that well for me. On one hand I didn't have the permanent green beard experience that others had with this product (and yeah, it does turn your beard green for a bit, but it does oxidize and eventually fade out), but on the other it didn't work all that well for me. Full disclosure: I've got mild alopecia and when my facial hair comes back it comes back white. This product did not do a very good job of dying my beard AND it didn't last as long as others have said. But everyone's unique, so you can't just take what someone says and truth for everyone's experience. But this is mine, it didn't work well — it worked a tiny bit, but not enough to make any sort of real difference.

I've used Grizzly Mountain Beard Dye for nearly a year now. It's awesome, looks natural, and doesn't burn my face off like the over-the-counter brands do (I'm HIGHLY allergic). I recently went back to a stubble beard. I noticed the dye didn't stick to my short gray beard hairs like it did when they were longer. I decided to give this a whirl. All I can say is...IT WORKS! I still have a few grays here and there (natural) but this stuff REALLY helped the regular dye stick to my short gray hairs (I use the dark brown color). It takes twice as long for me to do the dye job now (and more often - with stubble it's about every 2-3 days) but the result is totally worth it. I feel too young to look that old and this product helps me achieve perfect results without looking "fake." I'm writing this after just one application. I am anticipating the next round will be even better.

After reading the reviews, I was a little nervous about trying this and dying my beard green, but I'm glad I gave this a shot. Unlike some of the folks that used this product, I followed the instructions to the letter and also made sure to use the base first. I applied the base and let it sit the full 30 min. The gray hairs in my beard DID have a slight hint of green. I then generously applied the beard dye and let that sit also for the full 30 min. The outcome looked extremely natural, not fake like Just for Men. It didn't eliminate all of my gray, but it did eliminate a large amount of it. I'm going to try it again in a few days and I have a feeling it will look even better after another application. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a natural product and a natural look.

By far the best products I have ever used. I bought the organic base to get rid of the purplish hue I was getting due to the fact I have to use lotion on my face. It reacted with the dark brown dye. The organic base took it right out. These products have made such a difference! I could not even get close to a brown hair dye without blistering and swelling and am too young to have a totally white beard. This stuff made all the difference. No pain, doesn't take a long time, and is permanent. This stuff looks natural as it dyes a little different on each hair giving you shades and not one flat color. For me it has been the best thing I have found and I will continue to use for years to come.

Este tinte orgánico Grizzly Mountain es espectacular. No provoca alergia, es fácil de aplicar y deja un color natural que cubre completamente las cañas. En mi caso tengo la barba casi toda blanca y ahora apenas se nota. Sin embargo, en la primera aplicación hay que esperar un poco hasta ver el resultado. He aplicado primero la base orgánica y a continuación el tinte. Tras la base orgánica ha quedado un color rubio, después un verde tras aplicar el tinte y pasado una hora ya estaba medio marrón oscuro (el color que he elegido). El día siguiente al despertar ya estaba completamente marrón oscuro muy natural. En aplicaciones posteriores el color deberá cambiar directamente sin tener que esperar. Otra cosa que me pasaba con el tinte químico es que tras aplicarlo la barba se quedaba muy seca y rizada. Con Grizzly Mountain es todo lo contrario – la barba se queda suave y lisa. Recomiendo 100%.

Bisogna fare un pò di pratica nell'uso ma alla fine, quando si impara è ottimo: non irrita e da alla barba un colore molto naturale perchè leggermente disomogeneo. Non fa l'"effetto Pavarotti", per intenderci. Io mi trovo benissimo, ormai lo uso da anni... Sconsiglio il nero, perchè ha riflessi violacei poco naturali. I bruni son belli, anche se tendono leggermente al rossiccio.

I’ve been using Grizzly Mountain Beard Dye – The Organic Base and I’m really impressed with how natural the results look. If you’re trying to reduce greys without harsh chemicals, this is a solid choice. The plant‑based formula is gentle on the skin and doesn’t irritate my face the way traditional dyes have in the past. No ammonia smell, no burning—just a clean, earthy application. My beard still feels soft and healthy, not dry or brittle. The color result is subtle and natural, which I appreciate. It blends the greys instead of completely masking them, so there’s no fake or overly dark look. The color develops gradually, which makes it easy to control the shade. Because it’s organic, it does take a bit more patience. For stubborn greys, I needed more than one application, and the color fades over time. That said, the fade looks natural and makes maintenance easy.

My favorite natural beard dye - Covers your beard in a natural manner. Even if you keep it long, do not expect a 100% homogenic look if you have white hair, rather different shades of brown. It looks overall way more natural as you age.

I have personally found this product quite painful to use (figuratively not literally) compared with jfm. But i personally find jfm very painful to use (literally not figuratively) So this one is better. The only way it works for me and my very coarse beard: - Do it on a Friday night only. - Have a hot shower, shampoo beard with a basic shampoo, but NO CONDITIONERS OR OILS OR 2 in 1 MOISTURISING SHAMPOOS ETC. You can also use or a few drops of dish soap like Dawn. #note: You are basically trying to strip away the oils from your beard so it can soak up as much dye as possible, so if you know you have oily hair make sure you shampoo well or go the Dawn route. - Gently pat dry beard #note don't dry it too much it goes on better damp - Mix GM base (i use 1 tablespoon of GM base for my 1 inch beard) with HOT water to form a ketchup consistency. You don't want it too thin or it will just run off, and too thick is too hard to apply and will dry out too quickly. #note i find hot water gets a much quicker/darker result than cold water. If you live in a hard water area use distilled/demineralized water as minerals can interfere with the process. - Smoosh it liberally into beard with fingers so every hair is wet with product, start with the greyest bits first so those bits have the longest contact time. - Stick a couple of cotton balls up nose to mask the smell (kinda smells like tobacco/grass, not a bad smell but it's a bit overpowering for me) - Wait 30 minutes then have another hot shower, rinse beard well - repeat the entire process above, except using your preferred GM dye instead of the base. - wait 48 hours for it to fully develop This process gets me a very dark dye, if you want something less dark then use cold water instead of warm, or don't leave the dye on for the full 30 minutes (but still do the base 30m).
