They make this stuff called GR-7, it will bring your hair back to its natural color. It’s supposed to smell bad, and some say it’s dye. But color results do vary.

For those that think it’s pathetic. Would the impression change if there was a safe method to actually reverse this aging process, say a onetime UV light treatment that actually made your scalp healthy again?

I’ve been fortunate with the hair as well. Had a couple small little grey patches when I was in my 20’s. Dad was grey by 50, everyone said I would too.

Nope. Those patches actually went away over time and I have just stragglers of grey and no hair loss at 52. Now, I look like Fred Flintstone, but I got the hair going for me.

Only a few strays around my sideburns are gray. But there are a couple of spots in my beard that are almost white. I played around with the just for men beard color. If you find one that works it’s pretty easy to do every other week. I’ll give it a trim and brush it in then take a shower after the timer is up. They still look a little gray but not the bright white against a brown beard. An $8 box lasts about 2-3 months and it just blends the white back to grayish.

I dye my beard. Not because it’s gray though. I have jet black hair on my head but for some reason I have a lot of red hairs in my beard and it looks stupid. I use the Simpler brand because it doesn’t have toxic chemicals like just for men and it gives a natural look. Nobody has ever asked me if I dye it.

Beard is another story. Had a beard for almost 10 years. Now whole chin comes in white. I just keep shaved now because it looks dumb with just the white chin.

I don’t think women should color their hair so men it’s definitely a no go for me.

My wife is 52 and has dark brown hair. She has a gray streak coming in on one side and I find it sexy as hell. I’m 51 and have been salt and pepper for about 10 years. More salt than pepper as time passes but I have always received nice compliments from women I know about how much they like it.

I lightly died mine for about a year and then stopped. I got a full head of hair so I feel fortunate enough.

I don’t care if other men dye their hair but I wouldn’t bother with it for myself.

This made me laugh far harder than it probably should have. Seems I went from gray to stark white in about a 10 year period. Even most of my facial hair is white too with a bit of underlying dark gray still clinging to life in there somewhere.

When a man's face is as wrinkled as the side of a raisin, dyed jet black hair does nothing but spotlights the fact that he is an old bastard wishing to look young.

My chest hair went 85% grey during that 40’s age burst, but my hair up top kept its color.

It looks like I got titty-banged by a witch or something.

I've observed this as well and don't get it. I've seen several women in this age bracket who would would be attractive if not for the gray hair. But it's a deal breaker for me.

I just wish I had hair on the top of my head. My hair has migrated from the top of my head down my back.

It’s great. A side effect is that you end up with a BBC too.
