Review (5/5): The Base Enhances Results, Extends Time Between Next Dye
I think many guys are just buying the dye because it works well enough on its own. But after a couple applications of the brown dye alone, I decided to buy the Organic Base just to see if it makes a difference...and it does. When I just use the dye for 30 minutes and then wash it out, my beard/skin has that ever so slight green tint for the first 24 hrs, then a natural brown color with blondish highlights (where gray used to be) settles in nicely and lasts for about 4 days before the dye's color starts to fade away. When I use the base first for 20 minutes, wash it out, then apply the brown dye for 20 minutes and wash it out, I don't notice any green tint at all, and the dye's color lasts about 7 days before needing another application. So for me I'm going to continue to use the base first so I only have to dye my beard once a week to keep it looking good. Very happy with Grizzly Mountain products.
