JUST FOR MEN® CONTROL GX® Grey Reducing Anti-Dandruff Shampoo
1% pyrithione zinc
IMPORTANT: READ AND FOLLOW THE 48-HOUR SKIN ALLERGY TEST INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY WARNINGS BEFORE YOU USE THIS PRODUCT.
USAGE DIRECTIONS
You must perform the 48-Hour Skin Allergy Test before first use and whenever you have not used this shampoo for 2 consecutive weeks or more. DO NOT USE on hair that has been lightened, bleached, highlighted, coloured blond or has been coloured with henna.
Get the look you want: Use daily until you like what you see, then regularly to maintain the look you like.
Keep it that way: Once you’ve reached the level of grey reduction you like, you can reduce the frequency of use, alternating with another anti-dandruff shampoo (preferably a gentle shampoo, so you don’t start losing your great look).
1) Peel off freshness tab under cap. Do not use if missing or broken. Do not leave tube open between uses.
2) Massage into wet hair using the palms of your hands, NOT your fingertips, to avoid nail staining. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water. Leave on for about 1 minute before rinsing hair thoroughly.
3) Wash hands thoroughly again with soap and water, and dry hair with an old or dark towel.
4) IMPORTANT: Rinse off any product that has dripped or splattered. Failure to do so can result in staining of surfaces. Store tube facing cap down.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1) Will the product stain my skin? Some men with very dry skin may experience temporary staining of fingers and nails. This can be avoided by following these precautions:
- Moisturise hands with a hand or body moisturiser before using the product.
- Use the palms of your hands to apply, not your fingertips.
- Wash hands and nails thoroughly with soap immediately after using this product.
- Should you experience any nail staining, gently clean with toothpaste and a toothbrush.
- If you still experience skin or nail staining, use disposable gloves.
2) Does the product rub off? Control GX permanently reduces your grey and does not rub off if you rinse your hair thoroughly. To be on the safe side, use a dark or old towel to dry hair. Any stains on towels should come off by washing them as long as you don’t wait too long.
3) Will the product stain surfaces? Control GX may stain surfaces if you don’t rinse it off thoroughly. Check surfaces for any dripped or splattered product after use. Rinse off with water to avoid staining. If you see staining, use a non-abrasive cleaner with bleach. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
4) I see some dark spots in the product. Is that normal? Control GX may develop dark spots in the tube over time. This is normal because Control GX is sensitive to oxygen. As the product is opened and closed for use, trace amounts of oxygen can enter the tube. Darkening in the tube does not affect the results of the product. Store the tube facing cap down.
5) Can I use with another haircolour? DO NOT USE Control GX on hair that has been lightened, bleached, highlighted, coloured blond or has been coloured with henna. You may use Control GX on hair that has been previously darkened, however the colour can become darker and change tone. If you have visible colour in your hair, for best results wait until it has grown out before using Control GX.
6) Can I use on facial or body hair? No, Control GX Anti-Dandruff was designed and tested only for use on head hair.
