Hi All,
Just a silly question for you guys...my husband, who is 40 yrs old, has recently gotten quite a lot of gray/white hair and he told me he thinks he wants to dye it. I personally like it, I think it looks good on him. So just for sake of argument...how many of your husbands dye their hair and are afraid of going gray/white? Of course I will be on board with whatever he decides to do...it just doesn't bother me as much as it bothers him. He has very dark black hair and the gray/white is coming in right in front and by his temples.
~To me, I think men look distinguished and sexy with a lil' gray or white sprinkled here and there...what about you guys? Does going gray or white just make you think...'Wow! That guy is OLD'? :)
Thanks guys,
Karma

Mine husband is 54 and has a nlittle gray but to him it's a crown, he would never dye his hair. J.
My husband dyes his hair. I made him do it. He looks at least 10 years younger with brown hair.
Mine just shaves his head. He has an awesome looking head, something we would have never known if he wasn't a Marine!
I dye his when I do mine. He didnt care before, but it looks so much better on him! I do his beard too!
Nope. I like the grey.
My husband isn't even 30 yet and has some silver at his temples and in his beard when he grows it. I tease him about it but would never want him to dye it. I don't think it would cross his mind to, either.
Sean Connery was way hotter once his hair turned gray, anyway. :)
As a hairstylist, we have quite a few men coloring their hair in the salon. It is much better though for men to do a semi or demi color/glaze that still shows some of the gray. The opaque permanent color that usually looks good on women, do not look as good on men. Often times, because women wear make-up to enhance that look, and men don't. Also, the grow out on men's hair isn't as graceful as on women's. With the exception of black haired men, their color usually still looks good when they color it.
Also, I agree with the distinguished part, I like a little bit of 'natural highlights'. Really though, my husband is blonde with silver strands starting to peek through. He would never color it though and is kind of excited to be one day be all silver like his dad.
My husband also stared to grow a few grays, and not only he likes them, but so do I.
I hate it when guys dye their hair (unless they're very young and doing something funky like green or purple, lol). I agree that men look distinguished and sexy to just have the salt and pepper hair and go with it. I also remember sitting on my grandma's lap and studying her silver hair and thinking it was the prettiest hair in the world. My husband actually went gray (or silvery white actually) when he was in his mid-20s. Some sort of anemia causes that? But he's amazingly sexy, in great shape, all that. He carries himself in a way that gets respect, has an awesome voice and a strange combination of a British and South African accent, looks awesome in a suit...his hair color doesn't hurt his image at all (it may in fact help, in his situation). It has everything to do with how someone carries themselves, and feels about themselves though.
My husband started shaving his head at age 21. His version of dying his hair, is getting a sunburn ;)
I think gray hair looks SO much better on men, them woman. (I'm sure that's some sort of double standard, oh well.) I agree with you, that they can look very distinguished with gray. And, it shows they are comfortable with themselves.
My DH won't dye his hair and I think he should either do so or stop commenting on the gray.
For the record, I still think George Clooney is sexy.
Yes, my husband colors his hair; per my suggestion. He is 36, but with his job he travels to see many clients domestic and internationally; with his hair colored, to cover the gray, he looks much younger and his clients have increased. Overall, he feels much better about himself, his confidence increased and has received a well deserved promotion. I love my husband either way; but seeing him happier is nice.
My DH has had (lots of) grey in his hair for as long as I can remember. (I met him when he was 20.)
I think it's sexy too.
My husband did when he was around 40, he was up for a promotion and was going to be interviewed by people younger than him. So we did the gradual over the counter mens stuff.. His hair grows really fast so I was the one that would have to remind him about every 3 weeks to touch it up.
He did this for about 8 months and then said, forget it it.. it is too much of a hassle and he hated spending the money even though I told him it really was not that much.
Oh and yes he got the job, I had also purchased him some new shoes, new shirts, pants, ties and belts. Just to make him look a little newer and more updated.
He is now 50 and not totally gray, I think he is relieved he has hair, his father was almost totally bald at 30, I think he looks very sexy with the gray hair. I told him last night I did not recognize hm when he first came to bed.. he had his hair all slicked back after his shower. He looked very distinguished.
Ha(: Well as for me i have to say i like it.. My husband is ONLY 27 with (dark brown hair) an has Gray hair here an there.. an the cutes part is on his Go-tee there this gray strip (: .. He doesn't like it as well as almost every other men out there, I suggested that he should dye it if he doesn't like it... lol
it.
I like the little bit of gray too - or a lot - my husband does not dye his hair, but he is not gray yet either.....so who knows if he will want to, but I don't think that he will......
My husband is 34, i dye his. He actually asks me too. I do look at young men with grey hair and think eeek, old! That is just me though....lol!
Mine doesn't he is almost 35 and has a few gray streaks, i like them, and so does he.
I will be dying my gray hair though.
I've got a thing for a little bit of silver, I think it's sexy as hell.
My H shaves his head though, because a receding hairline on stage doesn't work out.
I love salt n pepper hair on men, personally. I wouldn't want my husband to dye his hair at all. That being said, if your husband is going to do it, don't let him use that cheap men's hair dye (Grecian formula and the like); that stuff is full of caustic metals and is not good for the body.
