I knew I'd go grey.

I thought I'd one day notice a hair here, a hair there. Till one day I'd lost count.

Nope.


giant streak across my beard makes my face look like a fukn skunk overnight.

I love my skunk stripe. Of course, mine's on my head. I don't have a beard.

But if you don't like yours, you should definitely dye it.

Welcome to the club. I remember when I started getting grey hairs a few years back. Maybe old age, maybe stress, maybe both lol

Think of it as getting wiser, not older;)

I don’t have any grey hair yet but my husband started to go grey when he was a teenager. He’s not bothered by it. My dad on the other hand still dyes his mustache and he’s 72. So do what makes you comfortable/happy!

Is there not a hair dye for men with facial hair?

Dad just uses regular hair dye and it’s always worked for him.

This really isn't a post about grey hair. I mean it is, and the advice about dying is great, but I'm more worried bout DYING.

I don't want the grey cause it means I'm getting too old too fast.

I don't want to dye or die.

I don't want to be old and grey yet but it's already too late.

gerying early in your teens doesn't count lol.

Well gray looks rad, you know the kids are dying their hair gray these days. The young X Ray tech at my work did. Don’t focus on death, focus on life!

Actually its in your DNA from your family to how fast you go grey and loose your hair and sometimes your teeth. One of my friends was going bald in high school his great grandfather was almost bald at 20 with a comb over not much you can do about it. It doesnt mean that your going to die faster it just means you can thank your gene pool. :-)

Its all how you look at it.

Now that I'm older, I've got a really cool silver stripe in my mouse-brown hair. I'm more cushiony for my children and pets to hug and snuggle. Sometimes an ache or pain will slow me down and make me take time to look around and think, not just go go go.

I haven't yet come up with a positive way of looking at wrinkles. Can anyone help me out?

They’re not wrinkles, they’re laugh lines 😊

Maybe somebody spilled some bleach on your face when you were asleep. And yes they do make Just for Men specially formulated for your facial hair. Never tried it but the regular stuff washes right out of mustaches and beards for some reason... a friend told me of course.

My brother's hair went gray when he was like 25 and my dad was bald when he was 25 but my hair is still all there. It didn't start going gray until I was almost 50 so you never really know. Or maybe my mom just got around a lot more than anyone knew. lol

Thanks. Unfortunately, my forehead has been laughing since I was 19. I'm not a grumpy person, but these look more like angry eyebrows lines.

Maybe I needed to look more serious, and not be Smiley so much.

Those are character lines. Instead of not smiling try not looking in the mirror as often, that's what I do. Old age is not for sissies.

Just wait til ALL your body hairs go grey.

I had a life long burning question answered recently (accidentally) when I was living in close quarters to my Grandma...

;)

I saw my first grays when I was 23, right before I got married to my first husb. It was only a couple hairs and it took a long time to get more than that. But I did get more and now if I don't dye my hair (which I do fairly regularly), I'm sort of "salt and peppery," with more pepper than salt, thankfully. Maybe 3 to 1. But when I was at the hairdresser's, she told me that the texture of my hair is changing. That means it's going from the (annoying) baby fine (few) wisps I've had all my life to the coarser, curlier grays....

I'm with the Doc. It's better to just not look too often. Good thing my vision is going, too, and I need glasses. (I don't wear them). My lines look softer and my hair looks nice when I can't see it...

I will also agree that having a face that looks happy and shows laugh lines over the years is optimal.

I’m 32 and when I laugh or smile hard, I can kind of see little laugh lines around my eyes. They’re not deep, but I can definitely see where they will be permanently in the future. I actually like them 😊

I told you greying young doesn't count. But you at least made me feel better. I made it to 37 before noticing any. I guess I could probably go ahead and thank that gene pool now haha

No. I've noticed those too I'm just bracing for impact for the day I wake up and realize they've taken over my face. And everything else. I don't notice wrinkles even on really old people much so I could be wrong when I say I think they'd just make me look ugly. Maybe it's just cause it's me I'm thinking of and not anyone else.

But at least with wrinkles you're undeniably old or older. You can tell newer people what life was like without smart phones and virtual reality? Like our olders told us about walking 10ft in the snow?(which I still believe is highly exaggerated)

So I guess the only good thing about wrinkles is maybe people will be understanding when I'm a grumpy old man. For some reason dumb f*ks can't understand why I'm already a grumpy man. Maybe grumpy old man just makes more sense to stupid people?

I don't recommend faking a smile(even tho i do it all the time) it's soul crushing. If you can genuinely smile, no you don't need to stop. Tell us how.

32 wasn't bad for me either. i wasn't sweatn wrinkles Very much anyway. give it bout 5 years.


it's weird though isn't it? that grey hairs might bother me more than wrinkles? i think when i get wrinkles i'm going to assert my elder wisdom on all the stupid people. with my cane. and i won't mind if it takes giving you instructions multiple times with it either!!!

Earl Grey contains high quantities of antioxidants, which help our bodies to fight off free radicals that cause diseases such as cancer. Therefore, drinking the tasty beverage can give you a greater chance of not developing such diseases.
