DESCRIPTION
What is Xflex Black Gel?
Xflex Black Gel by Edelstein is a black-pigmented styling gel that temporarily masks grey hair while it styles, sold in a 100 ml tube for barbershops, salons and home use, and applied to damp or dry hair section by section. The colour comes from the black pigment CI 77266 (nano) and the hold from PVP and Polyquaternium-28; according to the manufacturer the gel washes out with a regular shampoo and is not a permanent dye. The INCI contains no alcohol (no Alcohol Denat.) and does contain parabens (Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Ethylparaben, Butylparaben).

Who Xflex Black Gel is for
- Grey or salt-and-pepper hair that is to look darker between one wash and the next.
- Barbershops that finish a men's cut with a gel that styles and masks grey in one step.
- Home styling of short hair with a shiny, defined finish.
- Anyone who prefers a temporary, wash-out effect to a permanent colour.
For a clear gel without pigment, see the comparison below.
Key ingredients
- CI 77266 (nano): black pigment that deposits colour on the hair surface and masks grey temporarily.
- PVP and Polyquaternium-28: film-forming polymers that hold the style.
- Glycerin and Sorbitol: humectants that help keep the hair soft.
- Serenoa Serrulata Fruit Extract: plant extract in the formula.
Results
Grey hair looks darker and the style stays defined with a shiny, natural-looking finish. The colour is temporary and goes with the next shampoo. Coverage depends on the amount applied, on how much grey there is and on the base colour of the hair: on very light or fully white hair the effect differs from that on salt-and-pepper hair.
How to use Xflex Black Gel
- Take a small amount.
- Apply to damp or dry hair.
- Distribute evenly and style section by section, starting from the areas with the most grey.
- Leave to dry.
- Wash out with a regular shampoo.
For professionals
- Service: finishing after a men's cut in the barbershop, to style and mask grey in the same step.
- Amount per service: about 3 ml; a 100 ml tube gives around 30 applications.
- Formats: 100 ml tube only.
- Home care to recommend: the same gel between visits, since the colour washes out with each shampoo.
