I Don't Believe This. Just For Men

zenno

There i was looking at my hair, but my hair is gone grey so i decided to try this product out called just for men and after rubbing it through my hair vigorously my whole face and neck is black after using it and i can't clean it off.

What good is a product if it changes your skin colour ? i'm scrubbing the life out of my skin but can't get rid of the black inky stuff.

Any suggestions as i have to leave very soon to meet a person for an interview.

Harsh chemicals can damage your skin.

Toothpaste on a baby wipe and rub vigorously.

Next time rub Vaseline around your hairline.

Good luck with the interview

Damn, if i only knew this before i put it on. Definitely a bad hair day indeed.

Go back in time, and put some Vaseline around your hairline and neck before using the dye. Will stop it colouring your skin.

Or maybe try lemon juice? Or bread soda? Both seem to be the common household remedy for just about everything ...

Rub a bit of vinegar on it. After you post the pics of your dirty looking head of course.

I hear spunk is great. But you need loads. So the OP had better get his friends over.

What a disaster. I can't get it off, ah well, i will just have to deal with it, and it came out the wrong colour as well. Now my neck and face is gone red, multi-coloured i am now, i should have stayed in bed. :mad:

Get a turban. Or a burka. By the way, did you do a patch test before you used it?

Go all Kirk Lazarus on them

Right, i got a good bit of it off there using toothpaste and a scrubbing brush so not as bad as it was, but theres still a few patches around.

I'm not allergic to this crazy die stuff so i'm grand there. Here we go, combing this curly hair of the wrong colour now and it 's looking good. . Time to use my craftiness and get payed.

No matter what it says in the ads, most people can spot a man dyeing his hair from a mile away. Put this one down to experience and grow grey gracefully.

What have you done to get payed for?

I'm 100% serious when I say the best way to remove this is to pee on a cloth and lightly dab the areas stained with dye for a few minutes. The main active ingredient of hair dyes (phenylenediamine) is broken down by hydrogen peroxide which is a sterile liquid by-product of the body secreted by the kidneys and passed in the urine.

I think you are right, i won't be using this crazy stuff again that's for sure.

I Got the colour wrong as my hair is black now and my shmig is brown and grey as well as the eyebrows so it looks way out of place. Ah sure it was an experiment, that went arseways.

Sounds like you left it on too long. Maximum of 5 minutes. I've left it on for longer myself a few times and had the same issues as you. Either that or you got the wrong shade. Worst thing when this happens is that it's so obvious and it takes weeks for the color to fade again!

You have hit the nail on the head there. I did leave it on longer than 5 minutes as i was busy doing a few things so i think it was left on for 15 minutes. I even read the instructions but i just forgot the time.

2round

Options to try:

1. Toothpaste. Rub a little bit on the skin and rinse with cold water.
2. Mix dish soap with either baking soda, lemon juice, or a combination of both. Mix equal parts, rub, and rinse.
3. An acetone-based product (i.e. nail polish remover). Soak a cotton ball with it and rub it on your skin. Do it in a ventilated area and put moisturizer on after you're done.

Set your head on fire during the interview during the interview. They will be too distracted thinking you are having a stroke that they won't notice that you blacking up

That's a bit extreme. I reckon he should dye his beard and eyebrows the same shade or shave his head to the skin and tell them he woke up with cancer.

I'd suggest a facial scrub with those tiny micro beads...
