FAQ – Scruples MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor

Q1. What is MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor and what makes it different from traditional hair color?
A1. MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor is a non-ammoniated, deposit-only permanent haircolor system from the brand. 
Unlike typical permanent dyes that require 20–45 minutes of processing, MENZ is formulated to work very quickly — processing in as little as 5–10 minutes (depending on desired gray blending or coverage).

Q2. What kinds of services and clients is MENZ best suited for?
A2. MENZ is ideal when clients want a fast, convenient, and discreet color service — for example:

• Quick gray blending or gray coverage for men (or anyone) with limited time. 

• Full-head, partial application, or even beard/mustache coloring — because it’s safe and formulated to work on facial hair as well.

• Barbershop-style services or salon services where speed and privacy are priorities.

Q3. How do you mix, apply, and process MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor?
A3. - Mix the haircolor 1:1 by volume with its dedicated activator (Scruples MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor Activator) in a bowl or bottle.

• Apply the mixture to either damp (for gray-blending/soft results) or dry hair (for full gray coverage), depending on the desired result.

• For gray blending or subtle coverage — process for about 5 minutes. For full natural gray coverage — process up to 10 minutes (do NOT exceed 10 minutes).

• After processing, rinse thoroughly, shampoo with a color-safe shampoo, then apply a stabilizer (e.g. 1-Minute Stabilizer) to neutralize residual chemicals and condition hair.

Q4. What are the key benefits and performance characteristics of MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor?
A4. - Speed & convenience — transforms hair color in 5–10 minutes, ideal for busy clients or quick salon visits.

• Non-ammonia, deposit-only formula — gentler than many traditional permanent dyes, reducing potential hair damage or scalp irritation.

• Flexible application — suitable for full-head, partial application, and facial hair (beard/mustache).

• Customizable — blendable shades — the line offers multiple shades and allows blending for custom results.

• Quick gray-coverage or blending — can do a subtle blend (when processed shorter / on damp hair) or full coverage (when processed longer / on dry hair), giving stylists flexibility depending on client needs. 

Q5. What hair types or client situations may not be ideal for MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor?
A5. Because MENZ is a deposit-only formula without ammonia and limited processing time, it may not lift or lighten natural color significantly. This means it’s less suitable for clients who want to lighten hair — it is better used for gray coverage, blending, or color refresh rather than major shade changes. This aligns with standard hair-color chemistry where deposit-only colors do not lift natural pigment.
Also, for very long hair, repeated applications may result in darker ends (as noted by manufacturer guidelines), so stylists should consider that when doing all-over color on long hair.

Q6. For what reasons might a salon or stylist choose MENZ 5 Minute Haircolor over traditional permanent hair color?
A6. MENZ is an attractive choice for salons/stylists who want to offer:

• Quick, efficient gray-coverage or blending services (ideal for men’s grooming, express services, or clients needing fast results).

• Gentle, low-maintenance permanent color with less chemical impact (non-ammonia, deposit-only).

• Flexible service options — full head, partial, or facial hair — with minimal processing time, which helps maximize salon throughput and client convenience.

• Custom blends and ability to refresh or maintain color, especially for regular clients who prefer subtle, natural-looking color rather than dramatic changes.
