Daggett Ramsdell Color Stick Black Review

I use it every day to cover my gray beard and have been using this brand for several years. Wash off with soap and water at the end of the day. I prefer this to permanent dyes because dyes can cause chemical burns and nasty allergic reactions and they only last a few days anyway. After I've shaved and dressed, I apply it and rub it in with a toothbrush. (Absolutely nobody believes how old I am when I tell them!)

This product covers gray hair because I gave it a D BUT it also colors all other nails, fingers and fabrics. You have to hold the colored pencil yourself to apply, as the plastic holder is not ergonomic. Then after application PLEASE do not touch your hair as this will stain your fingers and subsequently everything you touch :-(

This is a terrible product. It is very difficult to use (you have to press it firmly against your head/hair to apply). When I managed to apply it where it was applied it looked like there was something like wax or hair gel on my hair. It was very strange after it was on my hair. Don't waste money.

Oh my god it works. I am a black woman and jet black covers my gray roots. I have a permanent hair color that I don't want to use too often. And this colored pencil will help me a lot with that. I'm a former licensed cosmetologist and I love it.

I doubt that I chose this product. On the one hand, the opacity is much better and lasts longer than other colored pencils I've tried. On the other hand, as other reviews have said, the hair gets very oily/waxy. I think I would say there are more pros than cons. The good thing is that you don't need to moisturize your hair before applying.

Not the classic true medium brown gray - really auburn. For real, medium brown hair with ashy tones, the look is useless. If you have reddish medium brown hair, this can suit the color. Dark brown works best and can be used as a brow filler! Can not be used.

I have so much gray hair and even though I pay attention to my coloring routine, I sometimes have problem areas on my face. I wouldn't use it every day. But when I can't dye my hair and have to go outside, I only use it on visible roots. I use a plastic comb and some hair oil to smooth it down a bit. It's also a good idea not to touch this part of the hair. It really gets under the nails. Learned this the hard way. It's not perfect, but better than other products I've tried.
