Just For Men Reviews

So I am a first time user of JFM beard. I went looking to see if others had experience similar to mine. Now I feel thankful my was mild compared to others. Think it weird the burning happens 2 to 5 days after application. Apparently others are having issues with the JFM product as well. My guess is they changed vendor to save money which may end up costing them more in the long run as I found a pending Class Action. The color match perfectly but between it lasting only 5 days and the burning and itching, I'll look to try something else for now.

Keep away from this product. Leave it on the shelf. Don't try it. After years of using this product I have had a few years break from it then used it again 16/04/2020. I used the hair dye and the beard dye. I woke at around 3am in agony and could not breath. I had a shower to shampoo my hair to try and make sure I could again try and clear my head and face from any dye. I shaved my beard off immediately. It took me three hours to get my breath back. Today I sit here and my face is swollen, red and sore to touch. I put olive oil in my hair to try and stop the dye continuing and showered and shampooed it out and I have some relief on the itching all over my scalp and will do it again soon.

CAUTION!!!! STOP!!!! Do not use Just for Men. I strongly recommend you to NOT USE Just For Men Mustache & Beard. I have no skin problem, I'm very healthy with no allergies at all, and never had any problems with my skin as well. I used on April /6/2020 the Just for Men Mustache & Beard, After the test on a small area, I applied the product for 5 min as recommended and I washed my face. The beard looks good, (I don't have a long beard) not fully died but acceptable. A couple of hours after I applied, I started fell very uncomfortable after all the reactions. Blisters all over my face, my cheek is keeping swollen, aching, and burning sensation as well. I'm deformed right now. DON'T USE THIS POISON. Google this product review and you will see all over the internet how bad are the reactions. My bad experience doesn't have to be yours.

Caution! Do not used Just for Men Control GX unless you want to go bald. Been using this product for over a year and now my hair is thinning and am getting a bald spot on top. Always had thick full hair before using this product.

I have been using JFM for twenty plus years and never ever had a problem until this past summer when I would have itching after use. Since my hair is short, I usually use it twice a month, and have done so like I said for twenty years without any problems. I recently had surgery and have not been able to use the product for a month and of course I went totally gray. I had absolutely no itching since I stopped for the month. I was able to use it a couple nights ago with help because I really hate having gray hair, and now I am itching a lot again in my scalp and beard, and the skin on the right side of my face to the top of my scalp actually hurts to the touch.

I’m quite sure most reading this are currently experiencing itching, burning and yellow puss all over the areas that they applied Just for Men beard dye. I am writing this to offer some comfort to folks who are currently in what I call the freak-out stage. Like others I have used Just for Men previously with no issues. Two weeks ago I used the same as previous applications, and within 10-12 hrs after application I experienced the worst itching burning sensation ever in my life. I wanted to rip my face off. I applied aloe vera during the day and at night I alternated with antibiotic ointment and medicated honey. To help with sleeping I took an antihistamine, which provided minimal comfort (minimal was better than nothing). The itching lasted 4-5 full days. The yellow puss and crusting lasted about 3-4 days.

Same as others have written here. I've successfully used this product for years. This past fall after using it, my face developed a full bleeding rash with yellow puss that dried into a crystal-like crust. I went to do the doc and he thought it might be contagious and I had to stop all social events for a week, and I eventually healed with topical and pill antibiotics. Fast forward three months and I try this product again and the same thing happens. I had not made the connection the first time. How can this company sell this product? It's a product that goes on your skin, and burns it off. I'm not allergic to any other product.

Used this product for almost 10 years, no problem, until recently, a couple months ago. I noticed my beard started to itch. Since I kept my beard very low, I just assumed it was maybe a few ingrown hairs. You know the beard hair curling and prickly into your skin. That's what I thought. I would apply the dye like once a week (every 4 days or so).

Stay away from this product. Used for. Year before no issues.. Then when started using it again within hours face had gone red around beard line...woke up to a swollen neck pus weeping sores and the itching is unbearable. A week later still not healed, lips were burnt, blisters in corner of my mouth and now I have developed hives all over my legs which I have never experienced before.. This stuff is poison and Just For Men know it. Someone needs to be held accountable for this crap.. It’s ruining people’s lives.. disgusting product..

I started dying my beard few months ago. The first time when I bought it, it worked well without any issues or side effects. This is my second time that I bought JFM 55 (Dec-2019). I had that burning sensation, irritation white fluid coming out of the pores of the beard area which later turned yellow (puss). I really thought that it's some kind of allergy. The condition lasted about 5 days. 2 days ago (01-21-20) I used it again and same thing happened. Irritation, swelling, stiff chin and puss. I did that for a job interview which I doubt that I will be able to go now after using this poisonous product. Right now I am thinking about going to ER. Last night when I slept, I woke up with 3 stains of puss (Yellow fluid/discharge from the wound under my beard and mustache. Two stains were on my t-shirt and 1 on my pillow. I wanna know if together we can file a lawsuit against this poisonous product.

I've been using this product for a few years now without any problems. Now I've been getting the most horrendous side effects. She'll be itchy and my face really irritated. The worst side effect of all is my lip swelling to an enormous size and the most awful sticky clear/yellowish liquid is coming out that would scab awfully and look like I was in a horror film. Inside my lip, hard lumps would appear. I saw dermatologists and doctors and I was being tested for so many things (herpes, even AIDS!) Hair dye was not one of the things that was mentioned to me but it had to be more than coincidence that within days of applying it I would be having these side effects again.

I have been using Just for Men Black dye products just about every week for over 10 years with no problem until last few months. Now I experience itchy scalp the day after applying which go on for a couple of days. I will be returning the unopen boxes I have and will enter the silver fox days with gray hair.

Applied mixed cream for 5 mins. Felt ok for a few hours then the bad itching started. Carried on for 3 days. This product is poison. Yes my beard is nice color but is it worth the pain. I dont think I will use again.

So, I've been using Just For Men for probably 10+ years with absolutely no problem...Until now!! I went to the drug store and purchased a large stockpile of JFM hair dye because I like to keep lots on hand for convenience. Anyway, I think I noticed the box design had changed but thought nothing of it. I applied the new product on my face and felt a slight more of a burn and again thought nothing of it...until the next day!! Holymotherofgod!!! My face felt like someone threw bleach or chlorine on my face and rubbed poison ivy on it!! My face swelled up, it was red all over, itched like crazy and puss started to ooze out of it. I was so shocked I didn't know what to do or how to treat it, I just thought i'd ride it out.

JFM - Dark Brown. I have been a user of JFM for past 6 years or so and I never had problems till last one year. When applied to my mustache area (Twice a Week), the area has become very irritated and itchy with some clear sticky liquid oozing out continuously. It is causing lot a pain and irritation in that area, which is quite an embarrassing situation for anyone to be in. The product's quality has fallen drastically and appears to be extremely dangerous to use. As I read from other reviews here, it appears if I stop using this product, my condition may alleviate. Even when used on scalp, it is forming hives and some liquid is secreting making the hair also sticky. The product could be carcinogenic. STAY AWAY FROM ALL JFM.

I’ve used this product for years with no issues, and now suddenly after the past 3-4 uses on my chin, I starting getting bad itches and scars. Now tonight, my chin is really swollen???? Something changed in this product and everyone is facing it.

I used Just for Men mustache dye for years on my brows. I used dark blonde. Then the past year it just hasn't been working to color my gray. I tried darker colors, many even black. What the heck happened to the formula?? Very disappointed. Don't know what to use now.

Hi. I have used this product weekly for honestly 15-20 yrs. Suddenly around 4-5 uses ago I had an allergic reaction and don’t know why. Since then, thinking it was a one off, I have had burning skin and scabs on my scalp and under my beard. I just had it happen again tonight 10/10/19 and I have to stop using it. I decided to look it up as I was certain they have changed formula and see all these posts. Most of them revealing this has only just started. WTF?

I was unaware of problems with Just For Men until today. Approximately 2 years ago I used Just for Men Beard Dye to prepare for a friend's wedding. When I woke up the next morning my face was swollen, oozing a clear viscous fluid, blisters and redness under my beard and down my neck and had difficulty in breathing. I spent hours in the emergency room while they treated me for the reaction I had. There was a lot of urgency on behalf of the emergency room staff. Since that time my immune system has been compromised and I continually break out in hives all over my body. These continued reactions of created nothing but continued issues for me, issues that I still suffer from to this day. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT... It needs to be pulled from the shelves.

I have been using the product to remove some gray out of my mustache and beard for several years. I bought a new box of the Just For Men lately and it has given me some side effects. It has started to burn my skin and causing me to have blisters and some discharge running down my upper lip. What did they do to he formula? I have been forced to stop using the product Just For Men and looking to another product that will not cause harm to my skin.

So I decided to dye some gray areas in my mustache. I came across this product in the supermarket and thought I'd give it a try. I did the patch test - all good. So as I was putting the dye on I felt a warming sensation on my upper lip. I left the dye in for around 3 minutes then rinsed it off. About half an hour after the skin under my mustache started to itch and tingle. That night my upper lip began to weep clear fluid and kept leaking through the night. The next day my upper lip was swollen like a balloon. It's been over 3 weeks and it's all starting to clear up but I'll never put that crap near my face again. Stay away from it!!!

I have been using this product for some time now with no problems. However, over the last month my face has started to become very itchy and sore. I have blisters and weeping sores all over my face/neck. I have trouble sleeping from the immense itching-tightness of my face. It feels like sunburn on steroids! This product needs to be recalled and investigated. I have no reason to have obtained an overnight reaction. No changes to my normal products, etc. I am convinced that an ingredient in the dye has changed or it’s something to do with the manufacturer. I won’t ever buy this product again and I certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. I wouldn’t wish this pain on anyone. If I could update a photo on this forum I would just to warn any potential user because it looks disgusting.

I had used this product since Jan 2010 without a problem or incident. The day I was burned in early 2015 was the last day I ever dyed anything. It burned my chest and my scalp. The pain lasted for days and the blisters drained for days as well. The itching was crazy, but you could not scratch because it was so tender. I have 6 brothers who all have their hair and I had a good head of hair until that day. My hair was falling out in clumps and all over the top. I always went light on the sides as a little gray on sides was ok with me. So I don’t seem to have damage there.

I dont even know where to start. I experienced the worst reaction ever after using this product. I applied this and left it on for only 4 minutes. The next day I woke up with severe itching and pus oozing from my beard area. Hours later this product literally stripped the skin off my entire chin area leaving fleshy pus and red crater sores and boils on my beard and neck. The burning and itching has lasted for days and it's now going on 3 weeks with hardly any healing or relief. I cant believe this product is still allowed to be on the market. Worst experience of my life.

I just purchased JFM for the first time for my goatee, I purchased natural black. The very next day I'm itching and oozing. I have to keep a Kleenex with me just to stop the drip. I have even started bleeding from some of the scars. Don't use this product or any others from this company. There should be a boycott.

I only started using JFM in January 2019 and it was absolutely fine. I used it maybe once a month on my mid length beard. I purchased light brown and was happy enough. However last month after application I felt an irritation and itchiness. This was very uncomfortable for about a week. Took some ** on advice from my pharmacist and it cleared up. Came to apply JFM just last week and by the following morning I was in a lot of pain. Weeping from beard and red around it. My lips felt numb and swollen and the itching is beyond description. I shaved my beard off. My skin is red, swollen, cracked and hard. It is now 5 days since application and I can only describe the pain, the itching and the sleepless nights as low grade agony. I have no doubts whatsoever that Just For Men light brown beard dye is totally responsible. This product is dangerous. I don't know what you guys did but you need to address this promptly.

As I'm writing this review I'm lay in bed. My face covered in Sudocrem desperately wanting to scratch my face off. It's so itchy and sore. Within a few hours of applying Just For Men beard and mustache my face became warm red and very very itchy and now it's really sore. I've been like a dog with fleas itch itch itch. Reading all the other negative reviews everyone seems to be having the same adverse side effects. I think it's disgusting and surely this product should be removed from the shelves and banned. Never again will I ever purchase any products from Just For Men.

I am nearly 60 years of age and used "Just for Men" beard wash for a number of years in my 40's, but accepted my graying process and stopped using the product about 8 years ago. Life is now a daily struggle with having to deal with dry, flaky, sometimes red inflamed skin. Since I've stopped using this product I've spent a fortune with dermatologists and pharmaceutical products. Oddly, the only thing that seems to help is sea salt rinses, but no matter what I do the symptoms always return within 24-48 hours. I keep hoping that as the years pass the symptoms will stop. Nearly a decade after I stopped using this product there is nothing to give me hope. If I had my life to do over with what I know now I would never use this product. Take my advice, if you like your beard and your face and your skin do not use this product. It is not worth the price you will have to pay in the future.

I have used Just for Men hair colour for 10 years or so. Never had a single bad reaction to it, ever. Suddenly however, the past couple times I purchased it and used it, my skin became red and swollen and stayed very itchy for weeks afterwards. As much as I have liked this product in the past I am going to discontinue use of it immediately 100 %. I see 99 other reviews in which other men have found almost identical, and even more severe problems. It is obvious that they have changed the formula, for so many men to all be reporting that they previously never had any issues with Just For Men, and now are having the same severe reactions that I am. Should be grounds for some kind of legal action here.

I have been using Just for Men for several years and have developed a large, red, itchy, sometimes burning area in the back of my head. The red spot will not go away even after using a prescribed steroid. The red spot many times itches very badly, burns at times and even develops small scaly sores.

Been using this product for several years and this last few times noticed red rashes only face and extreme itching for over a week after using. It causes me to wake up in the middle of the night just to scratch my face. I'm losing sleep over this. Don't think I will use this product again. Sorry.

Hello, On Sunday, May 12th, 2019, I used JFM beard color solution as directed on the product box and after applying, my chin and jaw areas began to itch. Then about an hour later, blisters were visible in those areas. It is Wednesday, the 15 2019 and my face is still itching like crazy with the visible blisters.

I've used the product before and never had a problem. My last box caused severe blistering, burning, scabbing, and total discomfort. I see a lot of other with same complaint. Fix ingredients or whatever to what worked before.

Have used this product previously but noticed new packaging this time around without any warning of ingredient changes! Skin tested too on chest without a problem. Following use of Just for Men my scalp has burn blisters all over which are constantly bursting and weeping plasma. The whole area is inflamed red and most of my head including my forehead is massively swollen! I had to go to A&E for treatment, antibiotics and penicillin! Has ruined a last in a lifetime family reunion for me! DO NOT USE!

I bought this in March 2019, (light brown) tested it on my chest. It was fine, used it, less than 5 min on the face, washed off the in the shower. CHEMICAL BURN! Blisters that weep, red all over face and neck down to arms, throat closed up, lips blew up. Felt like a blowtorch to the face. Took 6 ** and passed out. Ended up in ER with steroid drip, and 4 other medicines that I now have to take for 2 weeks. Have to get **. It's been 3 days and it is still burning and red. Most likely a scarred face just because I wanted to look a bit younger for a job interview.

I've used this product for well over a decade 2 x per week (I keep my beard very short), with no problems until around February 2019. I bought the same M-30 Light Brown Mustache and Beard dye I've used successfully for years. This time I started to developed severe rash and itch on just my beard area. I thought it must be some other facial product such as a soap, bath wash or cleanser. I eliminated everything to see what was causing this new problem on my face. After seven weeks of elimination, trial and error, the only thing that is consistent is that only when I use Just For Men mustache and beard dye (both M-30 and M-35) did my face have these really bad breakouts. I've stopped using this product and my face has cleared up. I wonder if JFM changed the formula or manufacturer of the JFM that starting hitting the selves early in 2019?

I have used this product for years. Today, I am suffering from burns on my chin. Fortunately I only have a goatee and not a full beard. I would recommend staying away from this product. There is a warning inside, but the burning has never happened before.

JFM has changed the formula and never tested the effects properly on human skin, otherwise this mess wouldn't affect thousands of customers. JFM has changed the color of the plastic container as well so they can locate the new formula in case of recall or something bad like this. I can't even imagine how much they pay by lobbying to keep this poison on the shelves. There was zero warning or information that they changed the ingredients. I have been using this product for five years but all of the sudden the last application messed me up big time. My skin has an open wound and looks like it burnt by fire, this is scary stuff and this company is 100% responsible and they know it. Guys, please avoid this terrible chemical poison!!!

I have been using this product for years, the past 6 months they must have changed something in the product. It burnt my skin getting it red and irritated. A few of my friends use the product and the same thing is suddenly happening after we all used it for years. Can anyone tell me what is going on? And what has changed?

I just finally realized that JFM is the cause behind all this itchiness, dryness and blisters that keep coming back. I have been using them for a while, but back in February, I started having issues after applying the H45 Dark brown mustache and beard. I had blisters, secretion and all, went to a doctor who mentioned fungus infection, stop shaving for a while thinking it was the daily shaving. Applied it a second time, same result and again left the beard grey out. As soon as I applied it this morning, I'm back with the same discomfort of burning, itching, hoping that I will not have the blisters for a third time. I finally realized it JFM causing this. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Like many of the reviews on here, I have been using Just For Men beard dye with no previous irritation. However, the last couple of applications have caused blisters and redness and the worst itching ever. My local doctor subscribed antibiotics and was treating this as impetigo. This seemed to clear it up but came straight back with a vengeance on subsequent application of JFM. Hard to sleep at night as it feels like my chin is constantly leaking/weeping. Something has changed, best avoided.

My beard started going gray. Used Just For Men, burned my chin. It was bad - a crazy experience. Couldn’t sleep due to itching and burning. After a couple of day had to shave it all off and I look like a freak now with a red bumpy chin. Hoping it goes or will have seek medical attention.

I used both hair and beard products and I have been sick for over a year. Scalp blew up like a balloon and oozed yellow puss. Face burnt red for months. I now constantly break out in hives and always feel sick. Do not use this stuff.

This product should be banned. After minutes of my first use of Just for Men Moustache and Beard Dark Brown M45 I got a severe allergy reaction. My face become all red, swollen and my skin so hard that looked like tumors. In the next morning a lot of rashes and blisters appeared with blood and pus all over my face and the itchiness was so bad that was unbearable.

After using M-35 I had the same reaction described by other had to shave to see what was going on. Skin has a blister type rash with itching and burning looks horrible, very uncomfortable and I’m embarrassed to be seen like this. It’s 3/10/19. I hope it doesn’t get worse. After having this horrible experience I will have to keep my beard clean shaven. I hope it doesn’t get worse; I also feel like my whole body is on fire. I feel extremely hot. Don’t know what step to take next. I may have visit a dermatologist. But I can’t afford to take off from work. Thank you for ruining my birthday weekend JFM. I hope the terrible rash goes away and it doesn’t become permanent damage to my chin.

As most of the others reviewers have noted I have used JFM Mustache & Beard on several over the past years occasions with no issues. The last 3 boxes purchased have left my face red, itchy, irritated, and blistered. The symptoms seem to be that of a chemical burns. It has been 2 weeks and my skin is still scabbed and itchy. I will not be using JFM again and advise anyone else not too. Go for organic and I'm not a greeny - just not worth the scarring and unpleasant chemical side effects.

As most of the others reviewers have noted I have used JFM Mustache & Beard on several previous occasions with no issues. The last 2 boxes purchased in Jan and Feb have left my face red, itchy, irritated, and blistered. The symptoms seem to be that of a chemical burn. I contacted the company and was told that they have had no other reports and that there have been no bad lots or formula changes. As displayed here that response proves to be false. JFM Mustache & Beard M-35 Medium Brown Lot# Z18M044 Purchased Jan 15 2019 and Feb 14 2019.

I have used Just For Men a dozen times in the past. On February 14 I decided to dye my grays out of my beard. Valentine’s Day dinner on February 14 I started having severe itching in my beard. That night I lotion and up my beard but beard butter. Beard oil. Hoping that this would relieve the itching. It was one of the hardest nights of sleep. The itching was so bad. When I woke up in the morning on February 15 my beard was filled with crust due to my face leaking pus. I went to CVS and I purchased Aquaphor to relieve the itching and burning and I dredged my beard to help. I never had this issue but I assume I have a chemical burn. It's brutal. I hope it doesnt last for weeks. I had JFM on my face less than 5 minutes. I never do it longer since my beard will get too black. Be careful not to let the chemicals hit your skin!

I have been using Just For Men for about 8 months. Each time it has been great and patch test comes out perfect. However, this time after patch test came back clear the dye caused a severe reaction and bad burns to my skin. They have been weeping for about a week and have had to get a prescribed cream to help the healing process. WILL NEVER USE AGAIN!!!

I used JFM without issue about a year ago. Had decided to use again a few days ago. My face was red and swollen. It then started seeping and scabbing. The only relief I found was from a calamine antihistamine spray. Stay away from this product.

I purchased a Just For Men beard dye. After application the next day my face where I had put the cream mixture on was red, burning. The next couple of days after that were horrible. My face was weeping yellow stuff, burning, itching was unbearable. I tried various creams to no avail. This product should be banned and taken off the market. I followed the instructions on the box but still ended up in a lot of discomfort. It's time for action against this product as I suffered for days before my face got better.

Just grew my first beard in Oct, as we were in Spain on Holiday. My hair was dark brown/black. And my beard was really grey, so I thought I'd try this, as it seemed so easy to apply. First three times I used it, it would really sting for a day or two, but put up with that, as the colour was really good. But when we were coming home from Spain, I applied it again for a fourth time. On our last night, we were out having a meal. And my beard felt like it was on fire, really sore and dry. Even though I applied plenty of beard oil. But worse was still to come.

I have been using JFM for beards for couple of years and all of a sudden I started developing lip blisters, soreness and redness since December. I thought it could have been something else. I even replaced four boxes assuming a bad batch but the problem continues. I believe the formula is changed to save few $s. Done with it, going clean shaven!

I have used JFM and the last time I used it gave me a horrible rash. It took 6 days to clear up. It burned day and night. HORRIBLE PRODUCT! They are changing the formula and it sucks!!! Do not use this product ever!!!

I used the dye several times and even did the test. Everything was fine until this past weekend. Same batch, same tubes...my face and lips swollen. It's been 4 days and 4 long and painful nights and I'm extremely itchy and red.

The last few months it seems the Just For Men beard dye is guaranteed to give you a rash. Prior to this, it could be irritating at times but nothing major. Even then, I was considering using a natural dye because I was concerned about the cumulative effects of using chemicals on my skin. Well, this latest round of experiences has convinced me to take that route. It may take a little longer but at least it won’t damage my skin.

I have used JFM before without issue. I used this product again on January 30th and woke in the middle of the night, my face was on fire. I had rash all along my beard, scabbing and seeping on my chin upper lip area, and my lips looked like over inflated tires. I trimmed my beard down and seem to have the rash under control but my lips are still swollen and sore. Never again with this product.

I used Just for Men Beard Dye and on the 4th time I used it I experienced horrible itching, burning and redness around my face and chin. This lasted for about 3 days. There were no issues the first 3 times I used it and I did not change anything in the way I applied it or the time I left it on my face.

I have been using JFM for last 18 months, since last 3 weeks my beard is very itchy. I am experiencing burning sensation, and tickling around lower lip. Today I saw dark ugly looking rashes in several spots under my beard. After reading other articles and experience I am immediately stopping use of any dyes. Best is to shave off beards.

This product does not work at all and it can be dangerous for you. It does tint your gray hair even if you leave it for long time. Waste of money. The cheapest CVS hair color brand does a better job and it is cheaper than this crap of Just For Men.

Decide to dye my Beard, chose JFM as I thinking it would be a safe brand. However after using, my face around my beard became sore and itchy. Over the next few days it became dry and tight, then cracked, and weeped constantly. It was very worrying and painful, as well as being noticeable and embarrassing. I didn't want to be seen and was extremely worried about the long term effect. After about 10 days and after having to shave my beard off it cleared, but I will never use a JFM product again!!

I read many of the reviews. I have been using this product for years. Used January 15th - ended up in ER the 16th with severe swelling and problems exactly like others report even to the point of throat closing up. To report what helped me is Steroid shots - more than 2 at ER - as well as Histamine Blockers if that helps anyone. This is nuts what this product does now to someone. I did do test and know this product. What has happened? And they do nothing. I’m still in pain and discharged today at 8 pm from ER.

Box used in the December 2018 caused me SEVERE chemical burns across my ENTIRE face. Blessing, vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, peeling. Burning. Itching. Orange fluid leaking from face 24/7. 3 ER visits since January 1st. Contracted Cellulitis. Rash somehow spread to my ears and neck area. Going on 3 weeks now and progressively getting worse every day. I have been in contact with Cochran law firm and will be attempting to file a class action lawsuit. I encourage the rest of you to jump on as well. I'm not even allowed to go to work because of how hideous and disgusting the injury looks. I recommend that everyone discontinues the use of all Just For Men products immediately.

Like many other reviews, I have been using Just For Men Beard and Mustache for approx 4 years without problems. Always completely satisfied although I usually suffered a little redness for a day after use which quickly disappeared. However, the last couple of months (Oct 2018-Jan 2019) I have suffered severe swollen and chapped lips. Also within 6 hours of using the beard dye I have blisters develop and erupt with yellow pus seeping out followed by 4 days of intense itching and scratching. The blisters then become thick crusty scabs. At the beginning I thought I'd developed a food allergy until reading that so many other men have recently starting experiencing similar reactions. Clearly the product has been changed, probably to increase profits. I've noticed that the price of this product is always at a promotional low price, possibly because people have stopping buying this - like me!

I have been using Just For Men products (hair and mustache) for over 15 years. Always completely satisfied with the outcome. Now, over the last two purchases, when I use it my lips are chapped and a yellowish substance is weeping from my upper lip. Obviously I will not be using it until they admit they changed their formula. I just don't understand why companies mess with successful products. They have lost me as a consumer, at least for now.

Have horrible irritation from the last batch of JFM, just like the others. Add me to the list. I found that ** creme has helped a little. Even **. Really wish they hadn't changed their chemicals. Sucks.

I have used Just For Men often for years when I need to clear all traces of my previous coloured hairstyles of blue or red. However this last batch I used has left me with a burning puss filled spotty rash under my head which keeps blistering and crusting over causing much distress and physical appearance embarrassment with the protruding pimples. Not a good look for a social man of 28!! I will not be buying JFM products anytime soon, 6 weeks have passed and I am still in spotty blistering frustration. I have booked an appointment at the doctors for advice and lost a days work wage for having to do so! On a positive note, my hair is dark brown as desired albeit on top of a raging volcano of red puss pimpled pain.

I have used this product for years with great success. I use it not only to touch up my mid length beard but for my hair too as the brush means it looks really natural as some grey remains. In November 2018 I dyed as normal once a month and during that night had the most painful itchy head and face, could not stop scratching and struggled to sleep. Woke up to find my pillow was soaking wet and had a yellowish stain. My head and face were red, slightly swollen, oozing and really itchy.

I have been using JFM for nearly 4 years without any issues. It is New Year's day 2019 I did not go out or be with my family because of the embarrassment of the skin sores, the peeling, the redness that this product has produced since they have changed something in it. It will stop you from doing what you want to do because of a complex. Last week I went to the doctor and got a shot of cortisone because they didn't know what it was. This week I was looking to go to a dermatologist. I think I'll skip so. Do not use this product as it will ruin your skin, cause inflammation, and cause permanent damage. The irritation spread throughout my face, started behind my ear, caused lesions, redness, and eventually around my torso including my back. I don't know at this point if it is reversible. It is painful, irritating, embarrassing, disabling. This product will ruin you. Whatever JFM did to the previously satisfactory chemical formula.

Just like the other reviews I’ve use this product for approximately three years with no problems. Then all of a sudden in mid November I experience or redness burning and blistering to my face. I have a reddish tent to my face which I’m hoping is not permanent but I’m in the process of getting a dermatology referral. Looking into legal actions against Just For Men.

I’ve been using this product for about a year and had no problems. The last box I got mixed it up and apply to my beard. I had a burning sensation so I washed it off and didn’t think nothing of it. The next day I woke up my face felt itchy and I had scabs and I was dripping liquid off my beard. This is the last time I’m product. I think they change the chemicals in it.

I have used this product for years but just occasionally without any problem. Yesterday I used and follow instructions but after a few hours, my beard area feels like it's on fire also itching terribly. My skin started to leak some yellow fluid continuously that I have to be changing towels very often. Today it's the second day and the situation is worse, my face is swollen, the itching, the leaking and pain and other symptoms are getting worse. JFM, remove this product from the shelves!!!

BEWARE. Whatever they put in this stuff, it can't be good for you. Followed the directions to a T. The result did not look good immediately after coloring and styling. My normal hair color is dark brown. This was way too dark with no variation in color among the hair strands...like a cheap Halloween wig. Then the itching started. After three days, I have disgusting, weeping open sores along my hairline behind my ear. Really makes it painful to wear my glasses. I have previously used JFM touch-of-grey products with no such reaction. I guess I'll go back to that once this mess heals. I was looking for something a little darker...and it is definitely darker...but this was a horrible experience. I do not recommend this for anyone. Not worth the risk. STAY AWAY.

I have used Just For Men for probably 20 years with no issues. The last few boxes I bought have made my face break out and itch. Now I have some kind of pus coming out my lips. Something has changed. Crazy.

I used Just For Men beard and mustache coloring for two years with no issues. About a month ago I used a new package on my beard and mustache and an hour later had terrible burning and itching. It lasted several days and was miserable. The itching was worse than poison ivy. I quit using the product and finally have some relief after about a week.

I’ve been using Just For Men beard dye since around May 2018. Each use has seen increased levels of itch and burn, lasting about 2 weeks. The last application was on December 2, 2018, which was by far the worst experience I’ve had with severe itching and orange oozing. DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT!!! As of the writing on 12/16/2018, the grays are returning, but the itching had stopped. What the heck is wrong with Just For Men?

No previous issues with this product, everyone commented how much younger I looked! Then behold, two weeks ago the day after use I thought (mistakenly) that I had developed a cold sore. Nope, it turns out (after spreading to more of my face) it is the product producing the sores. Until I googled to see if anyone else was suffering, I had no idea how widespread this issue is! Clearly there is something awry with the product that needs to be dealt with!

I've used JFM for over a year, without any issue. The last time I used it, it has caused skin discolouration. Initially, I thought it will go away, but after about 4-5 months, I'm still living with it. I see a lot of reviews here with similar complaints. I'm seeing a dermatologist later this month, but would like to know if anyone found a way to cure the discolouration of the skin (which is similar to vitiligo, though in most people that would be caused naturally, in this instance JFM seems to have been the culprit). As this is below my moustache, makes me annoyed and feel uncomfortable going outside including to work.

I have used Just For Men for several years with no issue. Like the other posters starting in 2018 something has changed. Now nearly every time I use the product my skin is heavily irritated under my beard. Like the others posting I might get dry skin or sores. Definitely something changed in their formulation and it's not good. I'm looking for other products and would recommend against this one until the company tells us what has changed or changes it back.

Hi, I have been using JFM for around 5 years now and today when I colored my hair after about 8 weeks, I have broken out with this terrible rash and itch at the base of my head and around my neck, ears, shoulders etc. There is puss oozing from a big lump at the base of my head and many other smaller like big pimples forming too. WTF JFM. Did we get into a bad batch that JFM sold us. Everyone go to the clinic and have it documented. War. I AM A 54 YR. WOMAN.

This is my second box of JFM medium brown. The first box worked with no issues. No pain. No irritation. No orange pus. This second box is a different story. I’ve used the second box on two separate occasions thinking the first occasion I did something wrong. I followed the instructions like I always do. These last two times creates a burning rash that scabbed up the skin under my beard. Over the period of a week after using it I got a painful itchy rash that excreted a lot of orange-tinted fluid song with a TON of pain and discomfort. WTF JFM? This product is dangerous and I believe the manufacturer made an error with the latest round of product. I’ve experienced a lot of pain, discomfort, embarrassment and it’s impacted my ability to work and relax. FML JFM.

I have been using JFM for over 20 years. Recently as of 11/21/18 I used a box of dark brown. I used it before going to bed. I woke up with burning and itching face. I also had red bumps. Not sure what happened but I would think the product has been changed. I have never had problems with the product in over 20 years. I did have to cut my nails so I wouldn’t scratch my face and also keep a hairbrush on my nightstand when my beard starts to itch.

Well...boy did I get a laugh (sarcastically) when I read the reviews here. About 2 months ago...I buy JFM Beard Dark Brown. Use it, a day later, my face itches like something awful, couple red spots, I shrug it off as small irritation. MAN AM I AN IDIOT. I buy the same stuff last week, mix it the same way and proceed to COAT my beard and mustache, heavily. This was Saturday night. Well, here I am, Monday night...my face (under my beard and mustache) is completely ravished with red wounds. Just like 90% of the other reviews: red sores, raw, leaking watery fluid. They crust up, super hard, and flake off in this orange tint, crusty gel substance. It's either bone dry and hurts to even stretch my mouth open or they open up and it feels like my beard and mustache are soaked with water.

I have been using this product for a couple of months without issue, after using it for the last time as per the instructions my face and sideburns started to become itchy and after about an hour I started getting swelling and blistering. I proceeded to wash my beard again with cold water there was no colouring apparent so I had washed my beard very well the first time. This product seems to be very inconsistent with its strength and mix, if you use this product be very careful, not happy and in a great deal of discomfort.

I thought it was me. Today I asked my barber and he said to be careful with what I use to dye my beard since he noticed my entire mouth is dry and lips are chipped. I just google and I notice lots of people are experiencing the same thing, I'm in shock. I think a class action lawsuit should be done because they did changed their formula to make it stronger and has affected lots of users, the company did not provided enough time for testing this product before they took it out to the market. Shame on them.

I have been using this product twice a month ($20) for around 8 years and it was great. I was always satisfied until around 2 months ago. I have used it for so long that I just open it and know what to do and then all of a sudden the same thing as all of these reviews have happened to me. Horrible burning and itching. WTF happened? I came across this page when I googled how to use Just For Men without burning your face. I thought that I was doing something different, but now I see. I looked for anything similar to buy and there isn't anything. I'm actually very pissed off right now. I have spent around $2k on this product and they just change it and don't do anything about all of us getting burns and permanent damage done to our faces?

Beard dye. Have been using for 5 years or more. All of a sudden itches and burns and makes like a ring around my beard! Bright red! Painful! Want to itch my face off! Has ruined whatever function I dyed my beard for to look nice. Followed the instructions to a tee including a timer! Pain, pain, pain. All of a sudden!!! Takes several days to heal and then scabs. Have tried using everything under the sun to relieve the pain including **, aloe, cortisone, ice, etc. but nothing works! They have to had changed the formula or something! Class action lawsuit please!!! Use with extreme caution!

It was the day before Thanksgiving (Nov. 21, 2018) and I was really looking forward to spending time with my two little girls and the rest of the family. We all live in different cities and we don't get that much time with one another. So I wanted to look my best. Fresh hair cut, clothes packed, clean trim on my beard and ready to hit the road. But wait, I should probably touch up the little bit of white coming in on the goatee part of my beard.

I had used this product for well over 20 years without any issues and with good results. But all of a sudden in middle of 2018, things changed drastically. Many reactions like others - itching, slight burning, pimple like swelling and even oozing. So I called the company but the lady just told me that nothing is different. Very obviously, it is NOT TRUE. The company should go back to analyze the formula to see what got changed to make it cheaper or have they changed source of imported components they are using to make this products - maybe they cheapened it to make more profit. BEWARE of Legal actions!!! That's more costly!

I first purchased Just for Men Beard and Mustache little brown color Aug.17,2018. The box contained a test to determine if it would be possible to use. The test was good, so I applied it to my beard and mustache. A hour or so later I started itching really bad. That was later, a few hours later by burning, swelling of chin, lips and gums. Weep came along, like water literally dripping from my face. I went to the ER, they said I had severe chemical burns. They gave me two shots in the hip, steroids and antibiotics. Along with prescriptions for those and other meds and mind pain medication. Doctor told me to shave to get as much of the hair follicle I could. It took about two weeks to finally clear up. Very painful, had to miss work because of the open wounds. All I can say is beware of this product.

I have used Just For Men for several years without any problem until about 2 months ago. I follow the instructions, wash it out, no problem. Then about 3 hours later while I'm on a date my beard area feels like it's on fire. I go to the restroom and notice oozing from my beard area, literally dripping. I use tissue and see that the oozing is yellow. My face started to swell. I went to the emergency room and was treated. This product is dangerous.

I have been using JFM since beginning of 2018 and had no problem until I purchased a new box about 2 months ago. I ignored small chemical burn on side of my beard for weeks but now my whole face is burning and oozing sores with leaking fluids. JFM what is going on!!??

I have used JFM beard and mustache for years with no side effects until my latest purchase. I used it on November 23rd in the morning and by 1 pm my face had red raised bumps everywhere I had used it. It was also itching very badly and my lips were swollen and very painful. By 9 that evening I was itching so badly I had to shave my month old beard. I had pus oozing from multiple rash sores on my face. I have no relief. I have however been quite entertaining to my family with my swollen lips. This stuff has to go NOW.

Do not use this product. This has to be banned. This classification, exempts Just for Men’s dye from FDA approval prior to consumer use. In fact, the FDA is prohibited from taking legal action against defendants for safety issues related to the products so long as the packaging includes a generic cautionary statement noting that the products “contain ingredients which may cause skin irritation” and a skin test recommendation.

Unlike others, I had never used JFM until October of this year (2018). Getting a little gray in the beard so I used the Light Brown application. My face has been itching and burning ever since. I thought it was just me, but decided to research it and came across this thread. Wow, I can’t believe so many are having the same reaction. I used it exactly as the instructions state, applied no more than 5 mins., washed with warm water and shampoo, etc., etc.

Having used Just for Men beard dye satisfactorily over the course of four months or so I was not too concerned when the setting mix in the latest purchase had a slightly different composition - white rather than clear. Around four hours after application I began to have red burning skin that continued to worsen - becoming purple, raised, puffy and then pus began to ooze from the skin. I would describe the pain as stinging and or burning - in the manner of sunburn. I went to the hospital and was immediately put on a course of steroids and antihistamines. Not pleasant at all. Please be warned - do a patch test first. From a Google search I can see I am not alone in having a bad experience. Retailers should think twice about stocking the product.

I too have used Just For Men beard dye on my mustache and goatee for a couple of decades now. I used it without issue about twice a month. About 8 months ago I used it and all of a sudden I was feeling burning, later I was feeling itching and burning, then I started to develop a rash in the goatee and mustache area. I have now been to a dermatologist 4 times, as they thought I had seborrheic Dermatitis. I was given numerous prescription creams and cleansers, and put on a strict regimen.

I have been a faithful user of the Just For Men Jet black for over 15 years. I would use it twice a week. This year (2018) is the first time I started experiencing a bad reaction to the product. At first I thought it was because I did not wash it out with a Neutralizing so I purchased a bottle and made sure I washed it out thoroughly. Still the same reaction... burning and itching. I took a 3-month break and shaved my face clean to give my skin a break. When I started using it again, the bad reaction was the same. I just decided to take a look online to see if anyone else has the same or similar story and I found a lot. I think I'm going to visit Just For Men website. Maybe that's where the complaints need to go. As a matter of fact, I'm going to look for a complaint line now. I'm too vain to give up on covering the gray... lol... Just For Men is the real reason 40 is the new 50... lol.

I've used this product for a couple years with no issues. It was actually great. Up until mid October 2018 when I purchased a new box. The box was a little different (taller) but no mention of a different formula or anything so I didn't see the need in testing it on my skin first. So I applied it and all was good for a few hours. Then I noticed some itching. Then some serious itching. Then my skin started to leak some pale yellow fluid like sap from a tree. This lasted 2 days and I was very concerned but it eventually went away. I thought it might have had something to do with the dye but having used it for so long I thought maybe it was something else. But it went away after a couple days so end of story. So I thought. I used it again... And the same thing happened. I'm currently nursing my chin through my goatee with a paper towel to soak up all of the fluid. Sounds gross I know. But this is the aftermath of using this product.

I too, like many of the other men thought this condition was something else! After [healing somewhat] trying to apply to my beard. I began with terrible itching, stinging, burning and then actual sores seeping liquid from my sideburn area. And NO, I did not leave this on too long. In fact; I had a stopwatch beside me during application and was sure to hop this in the shower on the 4-minute mark, shampooing as the directions state. This is getting worse and I suspect chemical burns. I am in whenever a class-action is initiated, this is horrible. It needs to be pulled from the shelves! I find it hard to believe the makers haven’t heard about this- especially in a time where online reputations mean so much. I am maintaining pictures for when guys wanna get together and do something about it!!!

I have used Just For Men for many years with no problems. It worked well. A few months ago I noticed something like dandruff coming from my beard. After looking closer, I found that my skin was flaking and coming off. I stopped using the product and let the irritation heal. To my surprise, the skin under my beard is white. I am a ** man. It looks horrible. I'll join in on the lawsuit if anyone has proceeded. My face is the evidence. Scarred for Life... Just For Men.

Yesterday I decided to color my beard before a party. My face burned and felt hot all night. It got worse overnight. This morning my face was swollen, itching and bright red. There are raised areas. My girlfriend noticed bleeding in my beard. I have used this product in the past and never had this problem. We are monitoring it to see if it gets worse. Right now I'm just trying to keep comfortable, holding ice packs on my face. I'm going to try ** to see if it helps.

I used Just For Men for years and in mid October I noticed a difference. I just bought a couple boxes of hair dye and beard dye same color so I was ready for a few months of nice colored hair and beard. So the new box was just like the rest of the boxes I’d used before, no notices of formula change etc... so I colored my goatee at night before I went to bed. Woke up in the night with a very itchy face and my lips were itching too. I would chew on my lips to itch them and all around my mouth. Even when I ate food they were very sensitive and salt or spicy food really made you say - "Wohaaaa that’s not right!!" So like so many JFM users I thought it was something else.

Just like everyone else, past user with no issues. Now when I use it, it burns and itches. My skin is inflamed, and red. Not using ever again. Something has changed from the past formula and this new chemistry needs to be pulled.

I decided to try and grow my beard out and did just that, after a few weeks noticed all the grey and decided I would slowly color in the grey with the light brown coloring Just for Men offered. After applying it and waiting 5 minutes to wash out with warm water and then shampoo out as the instructions say to do, everything seemed fine. In the middle of that same night I awoke around 3AM to burning and itching that about drove me crazy, forget about getting back to sleep. The next day due to the constant scratching, blisters started forming and releasing fluids. As I sitting here typing this review I'm wiping the beard are off my face to keep the fluids from the sores/blisters from running. This product is very bad and needs to be looked at by the authorities based on the other reviews I have seen. I am not allergic to anything that I am aware of so this has me very uncomfortable right now. Just for Men, what are you doing about this???

Used the product for years w no issues. Bought a new bottle on Oct 13th 2018. Used it like usual just before bedtime. Woke up in the night and my face was itching really bad and so were my lips. It was like I could chew on my lips and it felt good. I just thought it was from a previous infection in my tooth months earlier. Then when I would eat the salt would burn and anything would make your lips feel very sensitive. Still I thought that it was from the infection earlier but started thinking that has been over for months.

Used this on Sunday. My face is full of oozing blisters, some are bleeding scabs and very very very painful. Just emailed pics to them and Superdrug. I’ve used this product for years and years and never had an issue. Looked at the reviews and a lot of people having the same. All the litigations are in the USA as other chap said why is nothing happening in the UK.

I've used this product for 10+ years and never had any trouble with it. Used it this month and after a day I experienced horrible chemical burns around my mouth and nose. My skin was weeping clear yellowy pus for a couple of days and there was painful stinging. I had scabs and discoloured skin for several days which looked hideous and was very embarrassing. I'm guessing that they've changed what goes into the product. It's not enough to tell people to use a patch test if they've already done it in the past and it was fine. I will never buy anything from this company again. This stuff needs pulling off the shelves immediately - it's dangerous and they are going to end up with a massive lawsuit. Would give it zero stars if I could.

I thought that I was the only one that were having this issue with Just for Men, until one day I decided to Google my problems it freak me out, all this time I thought it were the medication that I was taking, I been using Just for Men at least 7 years until recently it sent me to emergency room with severe itching, burning, rash, face swelling, skin running out some kind of liquid. This stuff have to be removed from store shelves immediately.

I’ve been using the product for at least 15 years with no problems. However, a few months ago I was getting terrible sores on my face. First I blamed it on a razor blade (for trimming) and kept using Just For Men, until one day I decided to use it at least a week after shaving, so no razor blade involved. Once my sores actually got infected and I had to get on antibiotics. For quite a long time I thought it’s only me, who has this problem, until I found this page. The stuff is seriously toxic and I think the government should get involved!

I have used this product consistently for over eight years without any issues, until my last couple of applications. I'VE EXPERIENCED SEVERE BURNING, ITCHING and developed pigmentation changes after using Jet Black mustache and beard color from J.F.M.

For about 15 years, I have been using this product and happy with it. Recently, I noticed after using the product I experience severe burning and rashes under my goatee. The burning also comes with serious itching. The formula to this product have definitely changed and it should be pulled from shelves.

I purchased the natural black color JUST FOR MEN MUSTACHE AND BEARD dye. I did the 48 hour skin test. Nothing happen, so I continued to dye my mustache and beard. It looked very good, but when I woke up the next morning my face was severely blistered and swollen. It's been three days and it's only getting worse to where I have to make an emergency room visit. My face is disfigured. I wouldn't recommend this poison to anyone.

I have used Just For Men for over 15 yrs, it was an awesome product with no side effects. After using the product around June I noticed massive breakouts on my scalp and sideburns??? Horrible itching that lasted for days... They definitely changed the winning formula to something dangerous. Why in the world would they do this??? I need to find a different product. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm 52 years young and have been using Just For Men for over 15 years. I have never experienced any side effects that I've been reading in the reviews. The only way that I have noticed they may have changed their formula is that it seems a little less thick, but the final results are just as great as always. TIP: I just apply a little more hair conditioner to a larger area around the hairline areas so I don't get stains from any possible running of the formula. It washes right off with the conditioner and all. I continue to be very satisfied, and will very likely continue to use it for many more years to come.

Like every review I'm seeing here, I was a user for over 10 years. Now in last few months, burning, redness, oozing burns. Fortunately it's beneath my goatee and not very noticeable. But of course my beard is turning white and that's not the look I was going for. I never leave the product on my beard for more than 90-120 seconds. I've switched from dark to light to medium brown with the same results. JFM needs to get rid of this new JFM Beard formula.

I have been using JFM product for almost 10 years. In the last 3-4 months, I started getting pretty bad reactions to the hair color. I am suffering from burning sensation, itching and fluids dripping from my hair and back of ear. I need quick help. I am going to toss out all the hair color I brought... but I need immediate relief. Called the doc and the next appt is several days away. Please help. I am suffering quite a bit.

I'm not sure how the company can keep this product on the shelf. My husband has been diagnosed with vitiligo all along the area that he dyes his beard. I noticed a small scab, very red and then when he went to shave noticed that all the pigment is gone from the skin under his beard. He is devastated as anyone would be. Nothing can help this problem. It is permanent. We are very upset.

I used Just For Men beard colour after hearing from someone that it's good but found it totally otherwise. It gives extremely itchy and burning feeling on skin. Even though I tried my best that colour doesn't come in contact with lips but after washing, it kept giving itchiness and burning feeling for days and I was unable to even eat properly. Not to advertise anyone but found Bigen's Men beard colour much better than this and reverting back to it.

Like everyone else, I've been using JFM on my beard for years with no issue. However, I also, over the last couple of months have been having a serious itchy reaction for days after using it, getting worried now so will have to find an alternative. :(

I too have been using Just For Men Beard and Mustache for over 10 years with great results and no skin problems. Suddenly about a month or so ago I notice that when I applied the dye my skin started to burn. I didn't take much notice at first but after rinsing and about an hour later my skin broke out in oozing sores. It got much worse as the day passed. This lasted about a few days and then my skin went back to normal. I waited a week or so to try again and even though I was super careful and only left it on for less than 5 minutes the same thing happened. I was able to get to my doctor who prescribed a steroid cream that has helped with the inflammation and the intense sores and rash. I am totally upset and angry that this company has made some sort of change to the damn formula causing this serious problem. I need to find another product and if anyone can make a suggestion for an alternative, I would be most grateful.

I am a 39 year old male. Decided to give Just for Men a try since I was going to take a corporate photo in suit and tie at my job (Friday). It was early in the morning, and made sure to look up some tips on how to apply right (use vaseline), so I wouldn't stain my skin, and followed the directions exactly per the box. This product is scary. I started to notice an itch, nothing too crazy after about 20 minutes. 2 hours later, after my company photo, I went back to my work area, followed by going to the bathroom. My face was littered with redness in every area that I applied this product. Talk about freakin' scary and embarrassing. By the end of the night, my face was burning, and itching, worst part I had these blisters all over.

Like almost all the other reviews, I recently bought a box of their coloring (Jun 2018) and have been experiencing pretty intense itching around my goatee. I like the way my beard looks, but JFM must have changed their formula recently. I've got to find another product. I'll consider myself lucky if my skin doesn't get worse, like some of the other reviews I've read.

Wow! When I read all of these recent reviews it made me wonder how this company is still selling this product. Like many of you, I have used Just for Men for years with no issues. A few months ago I dyed my hair. Within a week I started noticing my scalp itching, then dandruff. I went and got my hair cut and within 2 days I had a rash all over my body, and my scalp was bright red under the hair that had previously covered it. The skin condition lasted over 2 months and was treated by 2 dermatologists that had no idea what it was. They just said it was some type of dermatitis. My scalp is still screwed up with scaly patches. I have been on prescription shampoo, lotion, steroid creme, and steroids in the pill form. Nothing has worked. This has been miserable. It is embarrassing to even get a haircut. What I am wondering is how this product has not been pulled, and why there is not a class action lawsuit going on. Pretty pissed off.

I too have used JFM for years. However, lately I have noticed that I would itch a lot. I didn't pay a lot of attention to it until today when I discovered my face had a huge blister on it, like a chemical burn. I'm done and I will see you in court JFM!!!

I've been using Just for Men for almost 7 years. Never had any problem but was easy and quick to use. But recently I had burning itching mostly between chin and lips and itching all over. I don't understand what acid they added in a good product and made it crappy. Goodbye Just for Men.

I have used Just For Men Mustache & Beard for about 10 years or more without any negative reactions. That all changed in about the last 4 or 5 months. My lips have gotten dry, and a pale raw look. Lips have become itchy, tingling, throbbing, swollen, slightly swollen, and a thin scab above the top lip. It's a terrible feeling. My lips get irritated when I eat anything that is spicy, this has never happened before. I didn't even know that this product was the cause of this terrible reaction, because I had used it for so many years in the past, what has changed? Are they using a cheaper chemical mix/compound? I noticed that every time I used this in the past the past couple of months that my lips would have this negative reaction to this product. I won't use this product anymore. It is a chemical poison, skin and lip irritant.

Excellent product. Works just the way it's stated on the box. Thankfully I wasn't allergic to any of the chemical ingredients. If you are allergic that's not the company's fault. It's just one of those things. I have several food allergies. It's not the food's fault, nor the supermarket. It's just my body chemistry. GREAT PRODUCT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

I have used Just For Men hair and beard since I was 20 yrs old with no problems. I'm 51 now and stopped using the products because of severe redness, burning, swelling of my face. Severe burning, itching and blisters on my skin under my mustache and goatee and around my scalp line. A lot of pain also. I quit using Just for Men 6 months ago and all symptoms still come back without warning.

Yep I'm another in the same situation. Using the Just For Men beard dye for years with very little issues at all. The last few times I've used this product I've been severely burnt and blistered. Also I've found the intensity of the chemical burnt goes on for around two weeks. Incredibly painful and irritating to a point you have difficulty sleeping. The new product is really terrible stuff, I dont wish the experience on anybody. My only hope is it doesnt leave any lasting effects. The severity is so intense it would surprise me at all. What has this company done to a good product? What is this company doing still selling this horror product.

I use Just For Men a lot back in 2002-2003 with no problem. Then one day I dyed my hair and later that night it started to burn, and itch. And the more it itch the more I scratched it. Doing this made my head hurt badly. About three days later my whole head was scabbed up with sores. My father passed away at that time and I had to wear a stocking cap when I went to the funeral. I went to the V.A. Hospital here and got treated for it, I have the paperwork from the hospital. Then in 2003 I used it on my mustache and beard and my whole bottom part of my face blew up... swollen. It was so embarrassing.

Not sure what they changed, but my head is on fire, it feels sun burnt after using JFM. I had used this off and on for years with no issues, but from all the complaints here, they changed something recently. Even left a "nice" stain on my bald spot, never did that before. It's going to be a "fun" day at work tomorrow.

I have used the Just For Men product for 10 years. In March 2018 I purchased a new box and applied it. My beard got very itchy and felt burnt - it even blistered and I went to my dermatologist thinking it was something else. I tried it again yesterday and now have itchy bumps not just on my beard where I applied but also on arms and stomach. If they have changed their formula they need to tell everyone and yank this product from the shelves. I just googled and came to this out and am horrified at the number of people who have the same issues.

Have used JFM product (hair coloring) for a few years to touch up some grey areas at the temple with no problems and almost always buy it online from Amazon. Upon using the product I purchased in late March (a day ago) I developed swelling, open sores and severe itching at all the areas I used the product within a short period of time. This used to be a great product for me to touch up my hair from time to time, but now after this total discomfort and scary reaction, I'll never use it again. I'm hoping the red sores and swelling will clear up soon!

I’ve been using JFM black beard dye every week for around 7 years without issue. I bought my last box on Amazon in March and within days of using it my beard and face became extremely itchy and my lips became very sore and completely scabbed over. So bad were my lips that I had to visit the doctors for antibiotic cream and it caused much embarrassment at work as I work in a client facing role. Every night I struggle to sleep due to the extreme itching. I’ve only just put two and two together and realised all these symptoms started just after my last purchase of JFM. I’ve also noticed that I experience a burning sensation when applying to my skin that I never did before. Throwing this box away right now. JFM need to come clean if the formula has changed.

Used Just For Men black color beard dye for years and it caused itching for weeks and burned my chin and below my bottom lip causing a permanent skin scar that is very visible. My chin also has scars and above my upper lip left side under my mustache below my nose. I can't shave my goatee or mustache because of scarring. Had to heal it myself with antibiotic cream. Had to use the cheaper coloring product that washes out to keep my beard dark to hide scars. Full beard now permanently. Threw out all remaining boxes. Never touch the poison again. Thought I could trust a socially available product.

OMG, two weeks ago I used JFM and had the same thing happen to me. My skin went from being normal to feeling like it was getting burnt with a torch. I was in some serious pain, so I washed my hair out as fast as possible, but within ten minutes my skin on my neck and cheeks started to blister up and turn bright red. This product has something wrong with it, and it needs to be pulled ASAP from the store shelves before it does even worse damage, like kill someone.

Testifying along with all the others I have read on here who have used JFM for years without any problem and then starting with my last box which I purchased a month ago I started getting the same kind of miserable rash. Looks like I need to start searching for another brand.

"Hindsight is 20/20." I went on here to research if anyone else had experienced this horrible irritation, orange watery/pussy bumps in my skin and was amazed at all the reviews of so many having the same experience! I really wish I would have done my research first before trying this atrocious product - this company should be sued out of existence for putting something this discomforting and dangerous on the market. I thought I would try to eliminate my greys before a wedding in a few days and now I am worried these blotches won't go away! Furthermore, I am in sales and this could affect my job if I don't get rid of these disgusting, leaking bumps. Horrible - DO NOT USE!!!

Used JFM M45 for over five years with no complaints. Used a new box in late March 2018 and had severe irritation, red welts appeared, unending itching. Shaved my beard and used Neosporin (it's all I had). Took about four days for my skin to become normal again. Dumb me, thinking the rash was due to an aged box of JFM, I tried a new box of M45 this evening. Same rash, irritation, itching; (so I shaved and used my neosporin again). If it helps, I purchase all my JFM from Walmart. I have noticed Walmart has a difficult time keeping the shelves stocked over the last four months. Thought the product was just becoming more popular; but perhaps their production has gone down because they are literally hurting people. I am done with JFM. People say I look younger shaven anyway. Hope someone gets these removed from shelves and sues the hell out of this company.

Used mustache & beard dye yesterday evening, 12-4 2018. Within 10 minutes itching followed by swelling to face & neck. The following day had got worse! Pharmacy suggested antihistamines. Still early days but experience I have already had is enough to put anyone off this product! I have used before with no side effects and I carried out pre test procedure with no reaction. Reading other reviews I agree something has changed. Do not use! It is downright dangerous???

Just For Men hair/beard dye - I been using this for months only to realize a bump on my chin that keeps running water/pus...then about 5 days ago started again. That ** burnt my face so bad I’m so embarrassed...now I have bumps running water and my grey hairs still there. I want to sue these ** or someone should. I want to go into stores and knock all of the shelves. That’s how pissed I am.

Just For Men Mustache & Beard: As I sit here with ice on my face researching what can be done about all the blistering and itching, I'm amazed at how many others have the same problem! I HAVE used it in the past and, after using it yesterday, I'm now in the same boat! I tried ** cream and that made the burning even worse so I just washed it off. Simple hand lotion does help relieve the pain and itching but obviously does nothing for a cure. I just hope it doesn't last for days and weeks like some other people have said. I've already thrown it away but still have the box. NEVER AGAIN! I will also certainly not recommend it either.

All I can say is for weeks I have had terrible breakouts just as described by everyone and even got patch tested which came up positive for a number of chemical. As I was doing my research on JFM I decided to check the ingredients against my list and nothing came up until I saw these reviews and now the mystery is solved! I have all of the symptoms of those on this site! It’s at least good to know the source of my problem!

I have used JFM beard dye numerous times and have had very minor irritation. However, I used this product three days ago and now I have a severe chemical burn on my face. The irritation and itching was so bad I shaved my beard off and my entire face is scorched. This is completely unacceptable!!! I will never use this product again and I will tell everyone I know to stay away! DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT!!!

I have been using JFM beard dye for 7 to 8 yrs & always have been a happy customer until a few months ago. Noticed some itching on face but not really annoying until last 2 weeks after applying JFM that it severely made my both sides of the face from sideburns down to my chin break out with red lump & lips. A burning sensation with sore throat, I'm on medication to hopefully calm it down but I recommend that no one should buy this product as it has changed its formula & have to go through this pain & stress like I'm living.

I am not sure if they changed chemicals in Just For Men beard coloring. I have used for years then all of sudden I was extremely burned. It has been a horrible experience. I looked information and others also have been injured. I have tried to reach out to them with no response. Do not use this dangerous product. I do not want you to go through this.

I applied Just for Men as directed yet after showering I had a burning sensation in my eyes accompanied later by a crushing headache. The following day my blood pressure spiked so high I had to go to the emergency room. The headaches continued for weeks after the initial exposure behind my eyes and severe tension in the back of my neck yet the most troubling issue is the seemingly permanent damage it did to my eyesight. Halos around oncoming headlights and a smoky film around all indoor lighting has persisted since the exposure 4 months ago. I've been to an Ophthalmologist twice with no relief. I was prescribed ** (very expensive) but it only increased the severity of the headaches. If are thinking about using this product think twice. The results can be damaging and permanent.

Just as I’m reading review after review, I’ve been using JFM for beards for about 10 years or so. I went online because I still have the tubes I used in Feb ‘18 where I got a terrible reaction and was thinking it was a one-time thing & was thinking of trying again. But I’m thankful I checked because all of these numerous reports were very similar to my reaction or worse. My face got extremely dry and painful where I did not want to go outside. After about a week after trying different moisturizers & not getting any better, I started getting open sores on my back, arms & hands. Wondering what was going on and still having severe pain in my face, I went to the doctor where he put me on a week's worth of antibiotics. Finally it cleared a few days later, but as an outside sales rep I had to make excuses for my appearance for about 3 weeks! Shame on JFM for releasing this product & they deserve a class action suit.

I've always used ION professional hair color (permanent). After years of using this product I got tired of the burning itch. I decided to try Just for Men beard color. Following the directions, including the 24 hour patch test, and thoroughly washing it out in 4 minutes. I carefully brushed in "on" my mustache and beard. Then carefully wide combed it through. Knowing the roots would still show gray but completely keeping it off of my skin. After 4 minutes, then 3 shampoos the color was absolute perfection! I had red itchy skin but not overwhelming.

Dye for beard and mustashe - I've been using Just For Men beard and mustache for 3 years. Never had a problem... all of a sudden HORRIFIC itching, skin burning, bleeding under the beard. Itching comes about 24 hrs after apply. New chemicals cause severe suffering, discomfort and agitation. JFM is wrong for changing chemicals without notice... NEVER had a problem until now! The bleeding, burning, itching feels like hell. You guys need to be held accountable for this quickly! Not right. We pay money for your product and NOW receiving pain and bleeding. I hope this gets investigated because without a doubt some chemical aspect has been changed without a revised noticed! Never ever again. My face underneath my beard has always been smooth and NOW scabs and blisters??? PISSED!

I have used Just for Men beard/mustache dye, Medium Brown for 3 years now. The last two times, I have experienced a burning of the skin under my mustache and my upper lip. The first time I incorrectly assumed I had possibly made a mistake in mixing the two ingredients. After the second time, I realized that it was an issue with the product and not me. While researching online, I found out that many others had experienced this issue. There is a warning on the packaging, but I had experienced no side effects up until this point. I had been using the product approximately once every 15-20 days with no issues. The company states that there has not been a chemical change to the product in 7 years.

As in many other cases noted here I have used the Just For Men products, the original hair colors, the beard and mustache and recently the new Shampoo. In approx 15 years of on and off use I never had a problem, then around the start of February I developed what I thought was ingrown hairs on the hairline on my neck, then rather than getting better it started to spread and I got blisters that are very painful, itchy and will bleed or discharge a puss if scratched too hard. There has obviously been a change of some kind unless the newest shampoo that gradually changes has a ingredient that causes this but with all the other reviews of similar problems I believe it is a formula change. I am about to call the doctor and get prescription meds, this is miserable and I have tried different mild shampoos and lotions and may get a slight relief for short term but no healing.

Burning and itching -reaction to chemicals in formula - I have used this product in the past with no issues. Now after what I am reading on the web, it seems the formula has changed. I had to shave my beard but I still have sores, itching and they are having trouble healing.

As many have stated, I have used this product off & on for a decade. The past 2-3 times, bad reaction starting a day or two after application. Rash under beard, dry skin, irritated ears & swollen lip. After a week it is still so bad that I shaved off beard & mustache, in hopes of speeding recovery. My lower lip is so swollen, it has kept me up most of the night, forcing me to call off work. I am not & never have been allergic to ANYTHING, which makes this all the more perplexing. Never again, NEVER AGAIN. I'll live with the gray!

Have used this before, but last couple of times the soreness and itching under my beard has been unbearable and my face swollen, and unable to sleep, as said in other reviews the formula must have been changed and not tested disgraceful! I am not a doctor but to help me sleep I put some of that freezing gel for joints on my beard and calmed it down so I was able to sleep. Desperate stuff but at 3 in the morning tired and uncomfortable it helped a lot, have thrown box in dustbin. Will NEVER use again.

I have used JFM for approx 7 yrs and was somewhat satisfied with the results. I never had a reaction. I just didnt like how the product only lasted a week. For the past few months I have experienced reactions using this product. I am getting blisters that "weep". I bought a 3 box pack on Amazon and I have 2 boxes left I will be throwing away. I have no idea why they would change their formula. They should be forced to acknowledge this in some sort of public announcement!

Like others I used this product and experienced the burning sensations, rashes, welts and all the other discomforts people have described. I will never use this product again! There are alternatives such as mascara type products but the best I have found is natural Henna combined with indigo to make a colour that is unbelievably good. It takes 2x hours to take effect but hey, what is 2 hours relaxing watching a movie compared to 2x weeks enduring a hell like experience courtesy of JFM? It does take a little bit of research but worth it and it lasts for about 3x weeks although I usually reapply every 2x weeks.

This hair dye is horrible. I could not sleep last night due to the burning and endless itching of my face. Today now 24 hours after using it, part of my face is still burning and the other part is itching. I can see the redness under my beard where this chemical or whatever they put in their dye has scorched my skin. I will never use this again, there has to be something better than this out there!

I have used this product before and was satisfied, but the last 2 times I used it, there were severe reactions on my skin. The most recent use was the most severe. Weeping blisters, itching, redness and severe irritation occurred. The reaction lasted a long time despite washing out the product in less time than recommended on the instructions. Reaction started within hours of application and lasted about a week before starting to subside.

OMG. I echo everyone else. I started using JFM about a year ago. It worked great. I am ** so I used the jet black mustache and beard. My beard is thin and low (less than half an inch thick). However, starting in Oct 2017 I started getting a weird stinging/burning after each application... I didn't think much of it... I also started getting what I perceived as irritations from "ingrown hairs" in my beard that were very itchy and painful and would bleed and scab. Still I didn't think much about it or connect the dots. I continued to use JFM every week to more irritation and then started noticing a red rash on my neck, and pectoral/chest. Still didn't put it all together and continued to use JFM.

Been using JFM for many years. Like the others I have developed a itchy rash under my beard. The dye that gets on my skin does not seem to be affected. It appears that only the skin where the hair follicles have been dyed are affected. I only have a goatee so I'm guessing my skin irritation is not as severe as those I see posting that seem to have full beards etc. It appears the more hair you have to dye the more of whatever it is that does this absorbs through your follicles. So the more you use the worse your reaction seems to be. I will find another product because I cannot tolerate the itching and the sores that happen because of the irritation.

I have used JFM for 16 years. It has only been recently, like the past three months I have noticed that I am experiencing constant itching and burning on my skin under my beard. I have no idea what has happened to this product but I don't like it one bit.

Been using JFM for more than a year now, without any side effects. Two days ago, I applied #45 Dark Brown (ordered 3-pack from Amazon) on my beard and mustache that is quite short (1/4”) and on the first day it seems to be pretty normal, but yesterday, I feel some itches and rashes on the areas applied. Tried to put some lotion to relieve some of the itchiness but the rashes now are visible. I've read before reviews regarding rashes/irritations but with skin test performed prior to every application, I assured myself that I was one of the lucky few. But now, even with the passing of skin test I've got these rashes. Won't use JFM again...ever. The skin test that they strongly recommend does not guarantee allergy-free result.

Like many other users here, I had used the product a number of times without issue, then seemingly out of the blue I got itchy redness under my beard that lasted for weeks. A lot of people here suggesting a formula change, yet I've seen reports like this from as far back as 2012, so not sure that is it...

I used JFM hair dye for over a year. Recently I used it and it burned and now it's swollen with pus coming out. I want people to be aware. This product was good but something has changed and it seems I'm not the only person to have experienced this reaction.

Have used Just For Men beard and mustache dye for many years. But the burning, and itching is almost not worth the pain. For the first 3 days after applying the dye is miserable. It usually takes a week for healing. I really wish I could find a beard and mustache dye without the side effects.

I've been using this product for 15 years or more and never had a problem with it until about 5 months ago. They must have changed the chemical makeup of this product for I now after all this time end up with itchy sores all over my head and blisters on my upper back. Why won't this company fess up and change it back to what they used to offer. I too contacted Combe with no response.

I have used JFM beard dye for years. Over the last 8 or 9 months I have been having rashes on my face and neck. Blisters on my lips happen also. The rashes have gotten progressively worse the last few times I have used the product. Now my chest is breaking out with severe itching. My face burns and itches all the time now, especially at night. Just have connected this problem with JFM after finding this website with all of these complaints. I thought I was having an allergic reaction to new medicine I have been taking. Dang, I'm never using JFM again.

Used this product for the first time ever. Within one minute of applying it I felt my head burn. I have used hair dyes in the past with no problems. Washed this out after less than the allotted 5 mins as I couldn’t stand the pain. My hair looks very good. But as I sit here now after an hour my head is still burning and itchy and very irritated.

I have been growing my first beard, after 49 years starting November "17". Used JFM mustache and beard color to get rid of the gray. After a couple of uses, I noticed red blotches on the skin beneath my beard. I thought initially that it was irritated from grooming it. After another application of the Just For Men, I had even more of a blotchy rash and this time it kept me awake at night with extreme burning and itching sensation! It was so bad at one point, I could wipe areas of my beard with a tissue, and the tissue would have fluid on it from the rash! This company should be held responsible for allowing this stuff on the shelf! As I type this out, my face feels like it's on fire. Hopefully this heals up quickly. DONT EVER USE THIS PRODUCT.

Rarely submit to such sites, but since I saw so many saying similar and recently here wanted to report issues - been using JFM beard for a few years, mainly on sideburns and slightly above without reaction (the color itself is poor - brassy but not the point here). Past few uses now, I've had very dry, irritated skins, some rash, irritation and bumps so it must be that (was thinking it was winter dry skin but that would be milder than this.) Something changed in the preparation or other aspects of the production process, maybe the source chemicals were contaminated or other.

Product has changed, I've use it for many years. Got a defective run where there wasn't the right amount of product in the bottle. I applied it and then had to re-apply the product from a new package. Broke out in a rash where I had applied the first product. I spent all weekend itching!! The customer service rep acted like she could care less and was RUDE. Offered a free product if I sent in the box top. Basically this is **. She was rude and never once apologized for the inconvenience. I am now ordering a Clairol product which I've used before. I want to sue for a week-end of itchy HELL!

I used the product Just For Men Mustache and Beard, and I followed the directions “to the letter”, and did not deviate in any way from the directions. Yet - now I have what appears to be some form of a chemical burn on my face, both within the my beard as well as below my beard on my neck. Since I did NOT allow this product to remain on my beard any longer than the directions stated, nor did I use or apply more than I should, does anyone have any suggestions as to how to assist with what appears to be a chemical burn on my face? Also, as this is my face, which cannot simply be covered up, can anyone understand how complaints at a higher level regarding this issue are warranted? This product is garbage and should not be allowed to be sold anywhere. More importantly, how is a person supposed to heal what this product has done? Thank-you.

Like a lot of other users I have been using JFM for a number of years without problem. The last two times I have used it I have suffered severe blistering. They must have changed their formula. Are they doing anything to rectify?

I used this product at least the past 10 years without any problems until the past 4 weeks. I believe as many other men do, that the product has been chemically altered over the past 6 mos. or so. I was used to using the product 2 or 3x/week the past 10 years w/o any problem until just recently (several weeks ago) when I decided to grow a beard out for hunting season. I was having a hard time with lite colored or white whiskers. So I got a new box of JFM M-25 (light brown) and started using it. All the symptoms other men have described - I started experiencing them - broken out neck rash/hives, lip chemical burns, and several oozing pustules that itched like crazy and some burned. I was forced to shave off my beard, due to the pain and itch, and started applying 1% ** creme.

I had used this product a few times in the past and had at that time experienced some itching and discomfort. I just used it for the first time in at least a year. I now have a beard and thought that it would be better to use now, being that the dye would not be nearly as close to my skin as it was when I didn't have the beard. Well what happened was the worst burn I have ever had including major blistering, weeping, scabbing, and unforgiving itching. How did this happen when I hadn't even put this on very close to my skin. Obviously, something has changed. I ended up to the Dermatologist who says he has seen many men with this reaction. I am now on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds. I will NEVER use this again. It needs to be taken off the shelves never to harm anyone like this again.

Well let me start off with this, I've been using Just For Men for probably eight or nine years. In the last year or so I have had tons of problems with open blisters going to the dermatologist. I was curious if they have changed the makeup of their product (Just For Men)? So I went online and was shocked to see how many people are experiencing the same problems. So now I decided to add to the list curious if anybody has found a product that they like? Now that I see how many people are having problems... I would like to know why this product continues to be sold to the public? I am 56 years old and I'm smart enough to know something has changed? I have not reached out to Just For Men but that is my next step? Has anyone else reached out and gotten a response. If so perhaps they could advise?

Have been using this product for a number of years now, but the last couple of times that I've used it I've had a really itchy scalp which has lasted for over a week. I think that they must have altered the formula somewhat and will not consider using it again until there has been some form of reassurance from the company that this problem has been resolved.

I have also been using JFM for a few years. Like the other stories, I went to dye my beard and I got a very red, hot rash with weeping blisters on my chin and under my nose. This cost me $125 in dermatological medicine. Going on a week and it's only a little better. My Dr. Said that the blisters are seborrheic dermatitis and prescribed anti fungal cream. The blisters cleared up in a few days but I still have this horrible rash. They need to pull this product!

I have been using Just For Men Beard Coloring for over 15 years and never had any problem whatsoever. I used it last week and my face is on fire. I have itching and burning and when I scratch there is a wetness as if I was scratching a scab with puss. They may say they have not changed the formula but that cannot be true. Now I check online and see at various sites others having the same problem. What is insane is that this crap is still on the market and they still deny any formula change. Too many people are having the same conditions at the same time even after using the product for years as I have. I've been keeping my face wet with cool water and will just have to wait it out until my body corrects the problem. I don't want to further the problem by adding something that I may get a worse reaction to when I apply it. Good luck guys.

So I used this product 3x prior, never had an issue. Until 4 days ago when I used it, I use it to cover the lighter parts of my facial hair, the dark brown JFM. And I had to shave my beard off. I developed the worse rash I've ever experienced in my life, blistering, scabbing, the itchiness was horrendous. I feel as if I'm a 15 year old going through puberty and breaking out all over my jaw/neck area. Please do not buy this product, I really don't know what it is doing on shelves, especially on CVS. My face is in pain as I'm writing this.

I used JFM for just under 2 years (starting in 2014). I stopped using the product for about a year as I shaved all my facial hair off. My last application (Feb 2017) I followed their (JFM package directions) and completed a skin spot test; no reactions. I then applied JFM sparingly to my graying mustache and beard. I applied the JFM hair dye about 9:00 pm in the evening...

Like a lot of the other complaints, I too am echoing their words. I have used JFM beard color/dye since June 2013. I would apply 1x every 2 weeks due to how close/short I keep my beard. This product was perfect. No significant issues. There would be some itching, but I expected some discomfort as one is dealing with a chemical product. However, since the summer of 2017, I too have experienced blisters. At least 3-4 the last two times I have used JFM. So yes, for nearly 3/12 years I had no significant problems; no blisters. Then this past summer, serious issues to the point I cannot trust the product. I'm now looking at organic/natural beard dye. JFM should be pulled from the shelves until they develop a product that does not burn or go back to their original formula.

I quit using Just For Men awhile back after a bad experience. I found that the dollar store had the color I wanted for 1$. It works much better and is a much better value than Just For Men. My wife recently picked up a Just For Men on a coupon so I thought I would try it again. BIG MISTAKE and my hair once again looks like CRAP. Believe me I have learned my lesson. Guys, stick with the dollar store, I sure am.

I started using JFM for beards approximately 18 months ago. I had no problems the first 3 applications. That fourth and I'm ashamed to admit fifth one caused me pain and discomfort that I would not wish on anyone. I did not test the product as the instructions advise. I figured that I didn't have any issues before, why would I now. If only I had listened lol. There were no problems immediately after I applied it in the late afternoon. However the next day my face burned and itched unlike nothing I had ever felt before. I kept telling myself not to scratch it but that proved impossible. After a short time of insane itching and scratching I noticed edema on my finger tips that was caused by the blisters that had formed and that I kept scratching. By my estimation this was comparable to a first to second degree burn.

Used this product diligently and sported a nice beard with lots of compliments for almost 3 years until March - horrific rashes and discomfort with oozing sores etc. Turned out they made some change that created a terrible reaction for many. I spent over $500 in physician’s visits and topical medications while trying to find cause. Missed work time and had some stress associated with the unknown cause. In time I shaved and found that it was the product when I applied the amber dye component to my arm and found the rash grew gradually from that point of application. The white developer and the hair dye had no reaction.

I used CVS brand hair color but was discontinued in med brown so tried Just for Men. I broke out in hives in large bumps on sides of my face accompanied with itching and burning. CVS brand did not do that to that degree.

This is horrible. I started using JFM July of 2016 and it worked great until the beginning of this year, 2017. I woke up at 2am with seeping sores on my face. Burning, itching and sticky puss running down the sides of my face. I don't know what the Hell they did to the formula, but I simply can no longer use it as the pain is horrendous. It has done this to me the last three times I used it. First I thought it was due to leaving it on too long, so I tried less time, still it happened. So then I thought maybe it is because I switched from light brown to dark brown and went back to the light brown and it still did it. So now I simply have to quit using this. Which is a shame because it works great and the color lasts me about three weeks. But I'm sitting here with puss running down my face and neck with my face on fire as I type. JFM change back, PLEASE!

My husband has been using Just For Men mustache hair dye for the past few years. When he uses it his skin gets oozing blisters and very painful. Have you changed your formula? He never had bad reactions before from it. I would advise you to check into this. I see tons of complaints. He will not be using it again.

I used this product about 15 times with good results... then all of a sudden every time I've used it, burned my skin, broke out in puss etc. I've stop for weeks... brought same product at different stores thinking it would help and no it burns my skin... Even a year later I tried again thinking maybe they found out the issues and still burnt next day... Don't use this product.

I have been using JFM for around three years with no issues. In the last few months I have experienced swollen lips, burning lips, dry cracked lips and redness with burning and itching on the chin. I actually was putting an ice pack on my lips as they were burning and swollen so bad. After I read that JFM claim nothing has changed, never having an issue prior I didn't stop usage immediately. After stopping usage the issues have subsided. So it was JFM causing this. After research I am not alone with this issue. They claim nothing has changed but I call BS; maybe the board members of Combe Inc. should use their product and experience what having your lips on fire feels like.

I had used this product a couple of times last year without issue. Last week I decided to do it again before a wedding. I did the patch test they recommend for allergies and had no issues. About 24 hours after applying the dye I started feeling an itching sensation. Very quickly that developed into burn like marks all over my face that have been getting worse with each day. I genuinely don't complain about things, but please believe me when I tell you that everything people have written in these reviews is true. It's been a full week and every day the burns/abrasions get worse. Please don't use this product. Not only is it extremely painful, but I'm embarrassed to leave the house. I ruined my pillow & pillow case, and even got my couch stained with blood. Basically anything that touches my face gets ruined because it's constantly seeping. This product needs to be yanked off the market. I can't believe they can get away with selling this to people.

My husband used Just for Men, and suffered a severe chemical burn. Within hrs, through the night, and into the next morning, he had severe itching, burning, welts and blisters weeping, rash that was spreading. The back of his neck was full of blisters, and his scalp was blood red. He washed his hair so many times, took ** and cortisone cream on his scalp, and is now using Aloe Vera. It is absolutely horrible, and totally unexpected. This was bad stuff for him, and many have gone through the same thing with this product.

I've been using JFM (Black Men) over four years with no incident and the past five months product has given me scabs, puss, clear liquid leakage and terrible itching. What the heck did you do new to the formula? Very dissatisfied and upset about this.

I have been using Just For Men for about a year and have had no issues with it till this past use. Woke up about 3 in the morning to find my face itching and blistering. My lips are swollen and my chin is seeping pretty bad. The product was the dark black version. I will not be buying this product again. I am very disappointed about how this has turned out!! From reading the other reviews I have found that this horrible condition can last for over a week. Not happy!

After carefully reading about the preparations and procedure for using JFM, I was pleased that after applying it, my mostly silver hair was a light brown color. This was my objective. But after several days, I began to experience itching. At any given time this involved no more than 1-2 areas of my body. The area(s) could be localized anywhere from the top of my head to my ankles. Some days were worse than others. After about two weeks, the itching went away. [Then, I did a second patch test for allergenicity, which was negative, like the first one.] The duration and intensity of these effects were similar to my skin reaction in the past when I have accidentally made contact with poison ivy leaves, but different in that there were no red welts.

My husband has used Just For Men Hair Color twice in the past without any problems. The day before Easter I put Just For Men hair color on my husband and I put remainder on my edges, afterwards he complained that the product was itching. We washed it out and he stated that it was still itching with a burning sensation. I washed it again then we went to sleep. The next day my husband and sores and bumps around his neck and ears and he stated that it was still itching and burning. I looked at his neck and it was red with bumps and part of his chest had small red bumps as well.

I have used JFM for 12-15 yrs on a mostly weekly basis. I have never had a problem with it until the past 6 months. It started with what looked like impetigo around my mouth (got an antibiotic). This past winter it got worse and I had the horrible itching, redness, scabby/** sores. I wanted to rip my face off. It wasn't impetigo at all, but the results of using this product. It seems that they must have changed the formula as I had used it weekly for all those years and was completely satisfied. Why can't they just admit they made a mistake and go back to the former formula so men like me can use it again. My husband has recently been having the same issues.

I have used JFM (Real Black) for about 6 months. Each time I have done the skin test on my arm with no reaction. I bought a box in February 2017 and used it a couple times. The second time I used it was April 5. Within 24 hours my face became swollen. My face felt like it was on fire from the burning I encountered. At night I would wake up to my face leaking pus and fluids that ended up becoming crusty scabs. All around my mouth my lips had swelled. My face under my beard and mustache was red from the burning which lasted a week.
