Modern men often decide to dye their beard and mustache. Representatives of the stronger sex are quite reverent and careful about facial hair. Sometimes relatives or friends push a man to take this step.
However, it is very important to know that the beard dye must be selected correctly, it must meet specific requirements. At first glance, the staining procedure may seem simple, but in the process there are always many questions. Therefore, it is very important to study the features of painting in advance in order to get a spectacular result.
Why paint?
Beards and mustaches of uniform color are considered neat and tidy. When painting over gray hair, a psychological factor plays an important role. Men with an updated beard color feel younger than their age, more confident. This gives them an incentive to reach new heights in their work.
Home or salon coloring?
The easiest option is to sign up for a beauty salon. Specialists, observing all the subtleties, will take care of the beard and mustachemen. At the same time, professionals will ask for a rather large amount of money for their services.
It should also be borne in mind that you will also have to tint your beard. You need to do this regularly. Beauty expenses will take a toll on the family budget.
Therefore, it is better to learn how to dye your beard yourself at home. There are a number of advantages here - the procedure will be cheaper, and you will be able to save time on trips to the salon. However, there is a small risk of making a mistake with the choice of color and the paint itself, but this is fixable.
Means selection
Some people use regular hair dye because they don't know where to find a professional beard and mustache product. But it's better not to do that. Beard and mustache dye is designed for hair with a softer structure, and it can lie unevenly on a hard one. There is a chance that you will not get the shade that was hoped for. The reason is the same - the rigid structure of the hair.
But if you still decide to stop at the paint intended for hair, you should definitely buy only light shades. It is worth choosing from light blond, blond, ashy. The fact is that on hard hairs these paints will give a darker color. Choosing, for example, chestnut, there is a risk of getting a jet-black beard.
Another disadvantage of using conventional paint is that it can cause an allergic reaction on the delicate skin of the face.
Beauty salons always use professional beard and mustache products. They can be found ina regular cosmetic store, order online or purchase at a hairdresser. The price of the product depends on the manufacturer.
How to choose the right color?

- Dark hair on the head combined with a red beard is no longer in trend.
- Black facial hair is not for everyone. Slavic men should opt for chestnut shades as a charcoal beard will look gaudy.
- Also, when choosing a color, you need to take into account the appearance: black is suitable for a wedge shape or goatee, light shades are in harmony with Full Beard.
