How to Apply The Bohemian King’s Beard Dye

Our plant-based beard dyes can be applied on their own or with our optional Natural Beard Dye Colour Base. Mix each product using 1 part powder : 3 parts WARM water by weight.

Choose Your Application Method

Option 1 — Standard Application
Apply your chosen beard dye directly, following the instructions below. No Colour Base is required.

Option 2 — With Colour Base
We particularly recommend considering our Natural Beard Dye Colour Base for coarse, resistant or predominantly grey or white beard hair. Apply the Colour Base first, then follow with your chosen beard dye.

Included with every beard dye pack: A complimentary 20g sachet of Natural Beard Dye Colour Base. No additional purchase is necessary.

Important: Always Use WARM Water

Prepare your beard dye and Colour Base using WARM water, not boiling water.

Mixing ratio: 1 part powder to 3 parts warm water by weight. For example, mix 15g powder with 45g warm water. Stir until smooth, with a yoghurt-like consistency.

Before You Begin: Your beard should be at least 1 cm long. Our beard dyes are not recommended for very short stubble. Always complete a patch test 48 hours before every application, even if you have used the product previously. Do not apply to broken, inflamed or irritated skin. Follow the full instructions and warnings supplied with your product.

Our video demonstrates the two-stage application method. The Colour Base is optional and does not need to be used for every beard colouring application.

Step-by-Step Beard Dye Application

Using beard dye on its own? Skip the first two optional Colour Base steps and begin directly at Step 3.

Step 1 — Prepare the Colour Base (Optional)

In a clean non-metal bowl, mix 1 part Natural Beard Dye Colour Base with 3 parts WARM water by weight.

Stir thoroughly until the mixture forms a smooth, yoghurt-like paste.

Step 2 — Apply the Colour Base (Optional)

Using the applicator brush, work the paste evenly through your beard from roots to ends.

Leave on for 20–30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water only.

Gently towel-dry before proceeding with your chosen beard dye.

Step 3 — Prepare Your Beard Dye

In a clean non-metal bowl, mix 1 part beard dye powder with 3 parts WARM water by weight.

Stir until smooth, with a yoghurt-like consistency. Long, thick or dense beards may require additional product.

Maintain the same mixing ratio when preparing a larger quantity.

Step 4 — Apply Your Beard Dye

Apply the mixture evenly from roots to ends, ensuring your beard hair is fully coated.

Leave on for 15–30 minutes, following the specific application time supplied with your chosen product.

Application times may vary depending on your chosen shade and whether you have used the optional Colour Base.

Step 5 — Rinse and Pat Dry

Rinse thoroughly with warm water only. Remove all visible product residue, then gently pat dry with a clean towel.

The final colour may continue developing over the following 24–48 hours.

Aftercare

  • Do not shampoo your beard for 24 hours.
  • Avoid applying beard oils for 36 hours.
  • Allow up to 48 hours for the final colour to develop before assessing your result.
