The details
Coverage
Blends greys as you style
Charcoal powder coats each strand as you style, blending greys into the surrounding hair rather than colouring them. It's a cosmetic effect that lasts until you wash it out, so there's no regrowth line and no commitment.
Head and beard
Head and beard in one step
Greys rarely show up in one place. Dark Clay works through beard hair the same way it works through head hair, so the coverage matches across the full look instead of stopping at the jaw.
Styling
Medium hold, matte finish
Kaolin clay gives it a proper medium hold and matte finish, so it styles like the Clay Pomade rather than a tinted paste. Short to medium styles, reworkable through the day.
How to use
Simple steps for best results
Prep
Start with towel-dried or dry hair
Warm

Before you buy
Commonly asked
Will it stain?
No. The charcoal sits on the hair rather than dyeing it, and there are no colourants in the formula. It won't mark clothing, and it rinses off skin and out of hair with water.
How dark does it go?
It darkens subtly rather than turning hair black, blending greys into the surrounding hair. It's a cosmetic effect from the charcoal, not a dye, so your base colour doesn't change and it washes out with water.
Can I use it on my beard?
Yes, that's half the point. Work a small amount through the beard the same way you'd apply it to your hair, concentrating on the areas where greys show. It washes out with water.
What does it smell like?
Citrus and cedar. Lemon and lime up front, earthy cedar underneath. Clean and easy to wear.
