“While the color of Volt is great, and looks natural and is easy to apply, the claims of how long it lasts have not been true in my experience. The color wears off within a day, and I have found that it has to be re-applied much more frequently. I will continue to use it, though, as it goes on quickly as opposed to Just For Men products, so the convenience factor is worth it.”
This is a great feedback. We have been observing different results from our customers when it comes to the durability (lasting) of Volt Instant Beard Color. We noticed that the results typically vary based on the type of hair, lifestyle and the application process. Our team lives quite active lifestyle. We have tested the product in swimming pools, gyms, snow and salt water and found it to last on average 24-48 hours. However, there are a few conditions that can affect its longevity and I wanted to share these with you:
Volt Instant Beard Color is not a dye and thus the color does not dye (stain) the hair or the skin. Instead, the color adheres to the outside of the hair. With that said, Volt Instant Beard Color generally wears out faster on oily hair as opposed to a hair that is naturally dry. The color will also adhere to anything that is on top of the hair (oils, dirt or food) and it will also come off easier with it. Thus, we always recommend applying Volt Instant Beard Color over a clean, washed and completely dry hair to ensure proper adhesion.
Next, the container needs to be shaken well prior to the application in order to disperse the ingredients in the formula evenly. This is very important and it will provide the best results when it comes to coverage and proper bond to the hair.
More color typically lasts longer as it takes longer to wear out. Therefore we recommend applying more color in the areas that are exposed to more wear and tear.
Lastly, we do not recommend applying other products under or over Volt Instant Beard Color as they may interfere with the product (lotions, oils, creams or after shaves). As a matter of fact Volt Instant Beard Color is enriched with Argan Oil and Vitamin A so your beard always feels and looks good..
We hope that this will help you wear Volt Instant beard Color longer. All in all, as you mentioned it, the product can be touched up easily to keep your beard always looking fresh. Additionally, Volt Instant Beard Color never comes off at the same time. It wears out overtime and in many cases it provides the “salt and pepper look” before it wears off completely.
“Nobody loves using Volt as much as I do. It is easy to use, waterproof, comes in so many colors and blends that, if you had a mauve colored beard, Volt would have you covered...better than Lloyd's of London.”
“This is really an innovative product! It’s very quick and easy to apply. The appearance can be subtle or as dramatic as you want it to be too! I wish it’s lasted longer though. It seems to mostly fade out after about 1 full day and it would be perfect if it last more than 2 full days. I can’t provide feedback yet on how long a container last but hopefully it’s long enough to make it cost effective. Overall love it so far!”
