So, I did the patch test & after 48 hrs, I had a small rash…it has been 3 weeks, & the rash has only gotten larger. Be careful!

Not good

Salt & Pepper Blended KitFind your shade ›

Results began to fade in the first week. Product is difficult to mix. Product marketing literature states "lasts up to 5 weeks" then in another location "contains enough product for 4 uses for one month." Which is it? If I was told I'd be mixing this insanity weekly, I wouldn't have even tried it.

Thought this was for skin sensitive people

Beard KitFind your shade ›

I am allergic to beard dye so I decided to go with Cleverman because it was advertised as a dye for people with sensitive skin. All natural ingredients. I know I should've done a test with the dye on my arm or something first. I didn't. Now my chin and face are irritated and swollen. I look like Jim Carrey in The Mask. The reaction to the dye was the same as any other beard dye. In my opinion, it was not skin sensitive

Re-Odering is a PAIN

I have an account with ALL MY INFO but they make me type it again every time I order. Also, I don't need a box everytime–there should be an eco-friendly way to reorder. This will be my last order.

Product Burned Test Area

Beard KitFind your shade ›

The dye irritated the test area. No, problem it happens but charging a $5 restocking fee on an unopened box? That’s not really a “money back guarantee”.

Not For Me

Beard KitFind your shade ›

I’ve purchased this product twice and I thought that it would work, since the survey asks whether you have sensitive skin or not. The first time I purchased the jet black and the second time around, the soft black. I must say that I was very disappointed. Each time I performed a patch test, my skin blistered up, very badly. It seems that this product is very similar to Just For Men.

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.
