Jul 22, 2024Great product! Hard to get the subscription frequency right
Touch Up KitFind your shade ›Easy to apply, great results! Appreciate the high quality gloves. Packaging is a little cumbersome opening and closing every tiny box but eventually I figured out to just rip the tops off of all the inner boxes for quicker access and stowaway. The subscription frequency is hard for me to dial in and I end up with several extra boxes at a time.

Jun 23, 2024Great product but wish I could see a wider range of shades
Beard KitFind your shade ›I've been using Cleverman's beard kit and full coverage immediate kit (hair) for a couple of years now and love the product for its non-toxic smell, ease of use, and lasting quality. My natural hair and bear color was a light brown or "dirty blond" so I started with a color that I thought would be a good match, but over time I've gradually gone lighter to "warm light blond" because my hair and beard tended to be darker than what was my natural color. I recommend starting with a lighter color than you think you need and then work your way darker if you need to. I like that Cleverman allows you to have a subscription with shipments at intervals that you can control (to a point), and you can pause or delay a shipment if you find you haven't used as much product as you expected. You can also cancel a subscription and restart it later. Customer service was very responsive when I thought I made an ordering mistake. I would have given 5 stars but what I found frustrating is that when you try to change color, it shows you only one option darker and one option lighter, so I thought those were my only choices. So, for the first year I didn't realize I could go lighter until I tried again, and again was presented with one option darker and one option lighter. If you want to change color by two or more shades, you have to choose one of the options presented, save your choice, then go back into your subscription where you are again presented with one option darker and one option lighter, so you choose the next level you want, etc. I wish it would show you more color options so this would be a single step.

Thank you for being a loyal Cleverman customer! We're thrilled you love our non-toxic, easy-to-use, and long-lasting products. We're glad our subscription flexibility and responsive customer service have been helpful. We apologize for the frustration with the color change process.

Beard KitFind your shade ›Would be nice to just get the essentials on reorders. All the individual boxes look nice but it's so wasteful. Really just need the dyes and applicator. Never use the gloves or conditioner.

Jun 3, 2024My new favorite beard dye!
Beard KitFind your shade ›Best thing about this dye was that it dyed my beard without dying my face. Only critique is that the packaging is a bit excessive and could be greener.

We're so glad you loved the beard dye and it didn't stain your face! We agree, going green is important, and while we work on even more eco-friendly options, our current packaging is fully recyclable.

Incentivized reviews: the reviewer received a gift for leaving a review, whatever the rating. Cleverman does not condition the gift on the rating.
The WordsThat Come Back
What customers name most often, review after review. Select any one to read only those.
Does Cleverman cover the gray?
825 of 2,509 reviewers name gray coverage as the reason they rated the kit. Coverage is a choice at the quiz: Full Coverage takes all of it, Salt & Pepper leaves some of it, and the formula is mixed to the gray level you report.
How does it feel on the skin?
1,447 reviewers name how the kit leaves their hair or how natural the colour looks. Cleverman is free from ammonia, parabens, sulfates, silicones, phthalates and resorcinol, and the developer carries SkinArmor Technology. Do the patch test before the first application, and if you have reacted to a color product before, talk to a doctor first.
* Study participant, not a verified buyer. These before-and-after photos come from a Cleverman formula test run in Barcelona in 2019, before the product launched. The men are real, took part in the test, and were photographed before and after use: same light, same frame, same crop, and the treated area is not retouched. Participants were compensated for taking part and signed a release. They are test participants, not verified buyers, and individual results vary. The 4.7 rating and every review count on this page come from verified orders only — not from the test.
† Incentivized reviews. Some of the reviews counted here were written by customers who received a free product for writing one. The reward was given whatever the rating, it was never conditioned on a positive review, and every review that earned one is labeled “Incentivized” on the review itself.
