Our verdict

A simple way for men to soften gray without a dye kit, since it is used like a normal shampoo. Results arrive slowly, so anyone wanting full coverage in one session will be disappointed.

Overview

Men going gray who want a subtle change get a color shampoo that reduces gray a little at a time. It replaces the usual shampoo in the shower, cleans and adds volume, and is then alternated with a regular wash once the shade looks right.

No mixing, timing or gloves are involved, which turns gray reduction into part of a normal wash. The effect is gradual by design, and the listing gives no bottle details, so judge it over many washes rather than one.

Who it's for

Men with scattered gray who prefer a natural looking blend suit this formula. Someone after a dramatic color change or complete coverage in one session should choose a permanent dye instead.

Pros and cons

  • Adds volume for a fuller look
  • Maker says it works across hair shades
Cons
  • Results take many washes to show
  • Must alternate washes to hold the shade

Performance notes

Gray reduction comes from repeated contact during washing, so how often it is used governs how fast the shade shifts. Once the target look is reached, switching between this and a regular shampoo controls how much more color builds up.
