How to brighten and whiten gray, silver, and white beards and hair

[@TheJulieana90]

Hi, I tried this on my hair and not my beard, I'm a girl lol, before my shower. And added some hair conditioner. My grey hair is super glossy and silver this morning! I love it! It looks like I have silver highlights with my dark hair! Great recipe! Thanks!

[@meloon5876]

Does it makes your hair soft as well or it is only gv u the shine?

[@raymondleblanc2941]

So glad to see other people who are white-bearded & proud. Thanks for the advice.

[@15thdoctor40]

I don’t dislike white or gray beards , I in fact look forward to my Gandalf days!😁

[@paddycool]

I tried this once a week for 15 minutes and it worked as advertised. Thanks

[@robertjason6885]

My wife prefers the “Just for Men” dark brown gig. However, I’m fine looking the part of an elder statesman. Excellent video, sir!!!

[@aashima804]

Mr. Bailey thank you for your information, you have the kindest voice I've heard in a long time and this info will help me with my dad. Thank you again.

[@Angelina_Rose]

Tarsha Campbell he does have a kind voice. Thank you! 👏🏼👋🏼💘

[@crystalsoul77]

I use this paste on 😊my silver, curly hair. I also use it as a tooth paste, substituting rosemary oil with clover oil. Btw, rosemary oil is excellent for hair growth.

[@Dunnrite22]

I have a salt a pepper hair and beard. I find that if I put hair color on my beard it really softens the hair and my beard becomes very manageable. The problem is it also turns darker which is not he natural look I'm after. I wish i could have that same healthy feeling hair with my natural color. Thanks to these videos I am on my way. I love my beard look forward to longer growth. Thanks.

[@gusthomas2423]

That's the recipe I use to make my own toothpaste except I use coconut oil with the baking soda and hydrogen peroxide.

[@jabowja]

Me too except I add peppermint oil

[@indiana600610]

I just got a ketchup stain in my handlebar ‘mo today. It wz embarrassing and I couldn’t wait to get home and wash it out. I’m definitely going to try this to make my silver shine! Glad to found this channel!

[@carlasmith8973]

Thank you....I have had 15 years of hard water (iron) build up on my white hair. I had a softener installed finally and in the last month I have had 4 malibu hard water treatments done and my hair was still bright yellow. The iron apparently stained my hair. I hate being called blonde, no offense to blondes...., but I love my naturally beautiful white hair which i have had since i was 20. I tried this once so far and the yellow is almost gone. I am going to let my hair rest for couple weeks and do this again, which I know will remove that last of the yellow. Your wisdom has restored my hair to its God given beauty. Thank You!

[@teracamacho5049]

So the peroxide is going to actually open the cuticle of the hair, please make sure to do a good conditioning after your brightening treatment, or your hair will be "grabbing" every color that touches it. 😮

[@danielbasham3203]

George, My present beard has been trimmed, but unshaven for 25 years.I shampoo it 2 to 3 times a week. It is only within the past month that I have used beard oils or balms. I have grown and shaved my beard many times in the past 60 years. Currently I have decided to "Just let it grow" to see what develops. It currently measures 4.75 inches from the bottom of my lower lip. In the past (1994-1995) IT reached a length of approximately 8 inches. Currently my plans are to pass that length.

[@inspectorvoid]

Every time I grow mine out a considerable length I feel like my face needs air so I always end up trimming it down. If it ever got cold enough long enough I may be able to pull it off.

[@Nik-vc7ox]

Hubba hubba. Every girl's crazy bout a sharp dressed man.

[@chipgroff9664]

I tried this and boy I was impressed as hell.

[@chipgroff9664]

Yes Paul, it works and works well. I usually depending on mustache stains and soul patch stains once a week; I freaking love sloppy wings. Generally I leave it on maybe 15 minutes or so which is about the time it starts to dry and flake off. Then I just wash or co-wash with coconut oil. I've been doing this since I seen this video.

[@julioseviltwin2304]

@Chip - hi.. Im a lil' confused with the 'paste', I make it up, it looks crumbly - similar to what we can see in the video - when I rub it into my hands it becomes a dusty chalk! the video doesn't have the 'toothpaste' effect, and neither does mine... could you describe with any comparison what this 'paste' should be like at the end result... oh and do you apply it to a dry beard, or wet? thanking you in advance...

[@michaelnedsmar9106]

I cant believe I'm watching this, over the last 10 years I have never had a beard more then 3 weeks as the just for men dye reacted badly with my skin , who wants a beard with grey in it? Fast forward to 2021 and I'm amazed how many young women in their twenty's who dye their hair grey its like grey is the new black. After 5 weeks of no shaving my facial hair is 95% white and loving it , going to try for a yeard.

[@steverankine4673]

My soul patch area is completely white at 26 but thanks to this excellent advice I feel ready to own it now. Great videos.

[@trishamurphy6285]

Thank you so much , can't wait to try , mine is yellowing from smoke and hair care products..I let mine go grey , salt n pepper , I'm honor of my passed mother ..Her hair was beautiful..My son's friends 23 yrs old are getting their hair colored ..to look like mine ...first video , i've seen on how to keep it and not cover it up ...cheers & 👏👍 buddy ..Dante to get rosemary oil at store tomorrow.. I'm so happy to have found this home remedy ..😃♠💯

[@Ben-ho4io]

great vid. I also use the baking powder / H2O2 combination as a once-per-week toothpaste substitute to brighten my teeth.

[@duskoconkic3417]

I have grown my beard since I was 18, now I´m 57, beard color changed from dark brown (almost black) to different shades of grey now, silver grey to white, so I´d like to unify the color to white shade so I hope I´ll manage it with your advice. Many thanks from Serbia !

[@tzach6745]

Finally got a few grey hairs in my beard none on my head yet, just waiting impatiently, thought this might help, over 40, but people still look at me and ask if I'm in my twenties. I may try this in my head and on the hairs on my beard. Thanks

[@jonsidds6963]

Definitely going to try this. My beard started turning gray about 5 years back and definitely not full gray yet but gonna try to brighten the white and grays I do have using this. Thanks brother.

[@onemon22]

Thanks for posting this. I have been gray for about ten years now. I will come back and tell you how it worked for me.

[@BrotherKellerman]

onemon22 did it work for you?

[@wakkywabbit5446]

I started drinking a lot of Koolaid Tropical Punch so my beard and mustache are frequently caught in the middle. It was frequently blotting and washing, which worked, but now I'm starting to get a reddish brown stain. I appreciate the recipe and advice.

[@markstyles5103]

I'm gonna make some. I use Jolene to whiten my beard. Yes when a beard mustach is bright white, instead of a yellowed white, it really does make a better appearance

[@ericdfranklin71]

My beard is black with a few white strands. If I use Jolene will it turn the black white. Cause I rather have white than a reddish colored tint.

[@belovedconsole]

This was great! My problem with my white beard is that there is still some black so I am researching how to clear that out before Christmas. But regardless of that, I'm excited to try this concoction you've shared with us, and I like how you show how to get the consistency just right. And the rosemary is interesting, it must smell really good!

[@maryannmarquez8740]

But

[@willmitchell2553]

Rosemary gives me a terrible headache so i will need to skip that any substitution?

[@ruralsquirrel5158]

I value your opinion and want to know something. I am 48 years old and have naturally silver/white hair and beard (completely). If I don't dye my hair and let the beard grow out I literally look 65+ and get hit on by grannies. If I shave and dye my hair 20-something girls flirt with me. It is a lot of work to dye and maintain a constant look, and it also strikes me as excessively vain to do so. Should I go natural or try to stay looking young. Mind you, I don't have a single wrinkle, have an athletic build, and live a healthy lifestyle.

[@ListenMySon]

Dude you described me. I'm not into the grannies or the young chicks. A smart beard and hair style and you end up attracting women that are peers. I attract the most beautiful 50-something women every day. Never an issue. I tried coloring once or twice and absolutely hated it and no one could've stopped me from doing it but I had to learn the hard way.

[@magarimagari]

I love this mixture, but not only for hair, also for the skin. But for the skin I don't use peroxide, just baking soda and olive oil or almond oil or rosemary oil ... It's the best exfoliant. My skin is always soft like velvet!

[@TheJoeCool1964]

I am trying it this weekend. Thank you so much. I am also closer to 60 than to 50. I watch your daybreak show. Daily.

[@mcrorie2021963]

Got the peroxide today. Will be trying this tomorrow.

[@robertamandab7932]

I don't have a beard, lol ,I'm a woman. But I'm gonna try this on my silver/ white hair. Wish me luck. Hope it works. Tired of using the purple shampoo.

[@pekoe46]

Did it work on your silver/white hair? If so, how did you apply it - hair wet or dry? How long did you leave it in? Purple shampoos don't work on white hair. Tried many. Thanks for the reply

[@robertamandab7932]

@@pekoe46 Actually, I've been using a lavender colored natural hair dye and it leaves my hair a bit lavender y and then as it washes.out it's silver for quite a bit. I bet it probably works but it's probably super drying. A good deep leave- conditioner would probably help though.

[@RickyZenInLivingFocus]

You make growing up look good...Thank you for the recipe!

[@kurtkyre]

I just got to the point where I can't drink out of a glass, and I had to wonder what I was going to do... A great many of the beers that I enjoy are not bottled!

[@skyavalanche]

Thanks, Sultan. You’re a great instructor. If it doesn’t bleach, is it creating a temporary lustrous coating? How long does it last? Not sure it’s worth the effort if it’s temporary. Kinda like teeth whitening when you still drink coffee?!

[@pekoe46]

Can't do this like cooking. Need at least close to actual measurements. Did great on the rosemary oil - 20 drops. And the peroxide is fine - use enough to make it kinda pasty. But the baking soda - how much is that jar you put it in? One cup? More? Less? So we know how to double or triple the recipe.

[@trishamurphy6285]

George Bruno ...your a life n money saver 😉👍

[@winstonroland1679]

I whiten my beard to be Santa! I used a purple shampoo that older woman use! Heavenly Grays, got it at Walmart!! Works Great!!!

[@diytherapy2644]

Thanks, i need it. I have searched and found all kinds of recepies. This one is the easiest. Thanks.

[@sergey680]

Hello! Tell me how to make a beard gray. My beard grows in more than one strand. I want to make your beard gray. I tried your method with baking soda, peroxide and rosemary oil. I use it once a week. The result is negative. Doesn't brighten. Help. Give me a good recipe. Thank you.

[@Littles813]

what if you don't like the smell of Rosemary? do you recommended any other oil?

[@Wally-pu2hh]

How will you drink the cookies and milk the kids leave out when you are delivering gifts ?

Glad i found this video Thanks for the advice it is hard to find product that caters to grey beards

[@ynothump2566]

Thanx for the great video and instruction boss. Love and much respect from England UK ❤

[@michaelbarr2325]

Hello Gray, Great idea with the brightener. I think it's the way to go if you're all white/gray. I have a beard that is now mostly but not completely gray/white but I want it to be all white. How should I go about doing this? Please let me know. Thanks again.

[@ListenMySon]

Formula 18 lightening powder at a salon. Great stuff. Then salon strength violet toning shampoo

[@michaelbarr2325]

Much thank! Can't wait to give it a try.

[@drewmosko7194]

That's cool - not bleaching and super easy. If, though, I wanted to turn my white beard a platinum (like Zac Efron had done on his hair) is that feasible and, if so, would it only be realistically performed by a professional? Thanks in advance.

[@shirleyfrazier4019]

Thank you soooo-much I have all those ingredients already and they are safe!!! Thanks again

[@1Teeplnator]

I have a dark brown beard but my chin area is silver would using this cause an issue with the part of my beard that is brown? love your tips and outlook on life thanks!

[@danzbutrfly]

wow...perfect beard.

[@djfnkfnk2276]

whats the list of liquors thats on the table

[@angelahagerman5693]

Love this...will pass it on...use gloves and then you can use your fingers to put that in the container

[@ericdredd1]

If I added lemon juice to this mixture would that be a bad move to brighten?

[@djaj423]

rosemary essential oils? like you put in the smellies around the house? thanks brother George

[@projectyungin9616]

This beard size fits u best

🍵Hello I am a new subscriber to your channel" I love it "....I have One question ..The "VO5 "in the tube the for gray hair....is this a Good Product... will it leave a sticky buildup??? Please Reply...Thank You!!! Looking Forward to next Tutorial🍵

[@Discerner1999]

Hi George, I’m glad you did this video. I have a grey beard and I also enjoy smoking my pipes, and my mustache looks like my old blonde mustache whiskers are coming in. My wife thinks my stash looks dirty. Thanks for the tip. Last thing I want to do is color my grey beard with Just for Men in a grey color. Could this be from the smoke from pipe tobacco going up through the mustache into the nose? Thanks for all of your advice, Adam from Indy

[@wr7819]

You are so cool, huge fan of yours, thank you for all the incredible info

[@usmc5833]

What a great channel!, looking forward to a lot more.

[@4dave62]

After I mixed this up and put it in the jar, I came back to find a liquid puddle around the jar. Does it expand or separate?

[@stargazer1359]

Hi George! Growing out my dyed hair. Will try this in future, thanks!

[@stargazer1359]

Will also use this on my dog, she sadly leaks urine because of diuretics. She has the most beautiful black & white coat. It has yellowed on her culottes even though she is washed every other day. We'll see if it works.

[@SetApartDisciples]

Is the rosemary oil necessary?

[@allandavies1187]

Hello, would it not be great if we could simply purchase this with your face on the label. I imagine this would be a great hit!

[@hugger1ify]

Hi, George, can you tell how many percent of hydrogen proxide you suggest was use in this formulation?

[@CentralNH]

My hair and beard is white but my mustache is a reddish blonde how can I dye or bleach it white to match the rest of my white hair?

[@LongHairedGnome1]

time it will turn

[@thomwright592]

Hey George...LOVE your vids, they are so informative. As a guy with a silver/white beard, I appreciate your information. One question: When applying this home made product, or any of the others you've posted, should one apply to wet or dry hair? Seems like applying to wet hair would make it cling better and mix in better, but wanted to confirm (or refute) this?

[@oneofhis1979]

Dry, water fills up the hair shaft and it won't absorb as much. Old hairdresser here.

[@andrewdimarco8264]

Great information! Can a guy with a salt and pepper beard use this to speed up the graying process?

[@dc8169]

Andrew DiMarco Great question! That’s what I’m looking for as well!

[@tzach6745]

Finally got a few grey hairs in my beard none on my head yet, just waiting impatiently, thought this might help, over 40, but people still look at me and ask if I'm in my twenties. I may try this in my head and on the hairs on my beard. Thanks

What would it do for a black beard with very few white hairs

[@prestontowne9768]

This works on grey hair?? I'm female starting to transition good home solution

[@Davidipac]

I have salt and pepper hair and want an even silver look. Will this help.

[@jamieashby8810]

Thanks for the video - very informative. Do you have any recommendations for bleaching a splotchy vandyke? I've got quite a bit of silver, but it's unevenly interspersed with the remaining black, and I'd just like to go ahead and even it out (and dyeing it black just looks like someone coloured my face with a Sharpie). Thanks in advance.

Hydrogen peroxide is a lightener than girls used in the Beach boy surfer girl era

[@saimandsouza5661]

Hi sir greetings here, sir I have black beard so I want white beard what can I do pls explain me thank you

[@jkoten10]

Hey George, how are? Hope you're doing well and keeping safe. Question: Can I use this while NOT having a gray/white beard as I only have a few grays; perhaps a salt-n-pepper? Is this only for those WITH a gray beard all over and for those wanting it bright?

[@danieladams2986]

Hi, what strength hydrogen peroxide did you use please?

[@jasonlindsey9946]

My problem isn't so much with food staining or even cigarette smoking but with oils that are cooked in when I straighten my beard. Can you straighten and then apply ? But if you do it that way when you rinse it out doesn't it need to be straightened again?

[@billrogers2180]

Should the beard/hair be wet when applying the paste?

[@bradleycred99]

I’ll try it this week! Thanks!

[@christianlan9260]

I really need my beard hair to be white. I don't really know why it keeps turning brown and gold.

Hi will this help to remove black heena color from my white beard?

[@thelionobrienlife2884]

Hi, Would this work for Platinum blonde beards? I don't know why but at 24yrs old that is the colour my beard grows.

[@bobwhite3584]

I have naturally silvering hair that is very pronounced around the sides of my scalp area. There is some darker color but its just about gone. I do sport a full handlebar mustache that looks great in its shape , no beard. In my youth my hair color was reddish blond and over time it turned some what auburn gray . When I started growing my mustache it had a mixture of color that I found un - pleasant. I have never tried to bleach out the color mix but I would like to have a whiter outcome to what I have . In your video on the mixture of items to brighten you say you do this once a week. can I do it more then once a week ,I don't want to damage my mustache but I would like to move on to a desired look faster . Please reply Thank you. .

[@markmartin2292]

Mike Pence and Anderson Cooper put some kind of whitening cream or paste on their hard to thicken it. Would you know what that is please

[@AssyrianFury]

you can use this for toothpaste too

Hey is that only for white hair?

[@mikebonet8346]

thank you for sharing this information .I can vouched for it. 100%

[@joebunkers1944]

Hi, what kind of hydrogen peroxide? I mean how pure is the one you use. It comes in 3% and 10% where I am from. Thanks :-)

[@ListenMySon]

3%

[@JohnStewart-fd5vn]

Do you have them let it sit overnight or can you use it now

[@bauhausbastard]

I am going to try this but I thought hydrogen peroxide was a bleach?

[@wmfmc]

Thank you, Gray,

[@ericdfranklin71]

Hey Mr. Bruno if you don't have rosemary oil could you used peppermint oil instead? Or do it definitely have to be rosemary? My beard is black with a reddish tint. Would this mix turn it completely white or silver cause that is what I am going for?

[@lordeverybody872]

This will not bleach or change the color of your beard. It is the fix for facial hair that is already grey/white. That has become dull or stained from food, hard water, or smoking. You did watch the entire video, right?

[@iangow5547]

I have a greying beard that seems to be taking forever to change. Is there any way to safely grey/whiten the whole beard or increase the rate of the change?

[@ListenMySon]

Actually not. Or without hardcore bleaching. You can brighten existing gray with the above.

[@BanesRomance]

Can you use other oils? I'm highly allergic to rosemary

[@moepharmo]

H2o2 + na2co3 will react so could this be stored it will react!

[@matero30]

Thanks for another great video. On the opposite side of the spectrum, what alternatives are there for hair and beard dye? You look great with white hair, but I'm still in my 30's and not quite ready for it, and it's just random white hairs scattered throughout my dark brown. I currently use just for men, but of course that's full of the chemicals we want to eliminate from our lives. Thanks for all of your invaluable advice.
