Alpecin

Grey Attack Caffeine & Color Shampoo

Grey Attack is ideal for men who have their first grey hairs or already have somewhat more grey hair and want to reduce it gradually. It is best suited to naturally light brown to black hair.

WARNING: May cause violet discolouration on white hair. 

Yes, Alpecin Grey Attack is suitable for daily hair washing. It reliably removes sebum and dirt from the hair and scalp. No additional shampoo is required to cleanse the hair. It is important to leave Grey Attack on for 2–5 minutes – from application to rinsing. 

The result depends on the condition of the hair and the proportion of grey hair. The colour effect develops gradually and may become visible after 3–4 weeks of daily use. It is important to leave Grey Attack on for 2–5 minutes – from application to rinsing. The colour effect can be controlled through the leave-in time.

Alpecin Grey Attack Shampoo gradually makes the hair appear darker. Depending on the original hair colour, the result may not meet your expectations, for example if the hair was previously blond and then appears darker. 

WARNING: May cause violet discolouration on white hair. 

Discontinue use if unwanted discolouration occurs. 

Alpecin Grey Attack Shampoo is not a conventional hair colourant and can therefore be used without concern about staining. Neither the scalp nor the hands are discoloured during hair washing. 

To prevent staining of shower surfaces, washbasins or towels, any shampoo residue should be rinsed away thoroughly. Once the hair has been thoroughly rinsed and dried, no staining is to be expected. 

Use Alpecin Grey Attack Shampoo daily and leave it on for two to five minutes – from application to rinsing. The longer the leave-in time, the more intense the colour effect can become. How quickly the effect becomes visible may vary depending on hair length and the original hair colour. In general, the first results can be seen after 3–4 weeks of daily use. 

All Grey Attack shampoos contain the active ingredient 5,6-DHI, which gradually repigments grey hair and makes it appear darker again. Due to different active ingredient concentrations, the products differ primarily in their colour performance and in how quickly the first visible results are achieved: 

Grey Attack offers strong colour performance. With daily use, grey hair appears visibly darker after approximately 3–4 weeks. 

Grey Attack Plus offers extra-strong colour performance and delivers the first visible results after approximately 2–3 weeks. 

Grey Attack MAX offers maximum colour performance. With daily use, a visible darkening effect can be achieved after approximately 1–2 weeks. 

Actual results may vary depending on the original hair colour, the proportion of grey hair and the individual hair structure. 

The Grey Attack range has been repositioned and will comprise three clearly differentiated performance levels. As part of this realignment, the formula, active ingredient concentration and packaging have been optimised. 

With the new recommended retail price of €9.99, we are making Grey Attack accessible to even more men and lowering the entry barrier to the gradual repigmentation of grey hair. At the same time, optimised production and procurement processes allow us to pass the resulting cost benefits on to our customers. 

Grey Attack remains the reliable entry-level option for the gradual repigmentation of grey hair. Its colour performance is comparable to that of the previous Grey Attack. Anyone who has been satisfied with Grey Attack can therefore continue using it with confidence. 

Anyone looking for faster and more intensive darkening, or who wants to be on the safe side, can choose Grey Attack Plus. This variant offers extra-strong colour performance and is available at the previous price of Grey Attack. 

Anyone looking for maximum colour performance can choose Grey Attack MAX, the shampoo with the maximum active ingredient concentration and the strongest colour performance.
