OT: Anyone of you older guys try some hair dye or "touch of gray"
I have alot of gray just on the side of my head and very lightly infiltrating the rest of my hair. I keep my hair pretty short and it looks funky on the one side.

I try Just for men many years ago , but coloring your hair is just a pain in the ass.
I started getting gray in the temples when I was in my twenties and was totally platinum when I was 40 .
The isn’t many days that go by that I don’t get a complement about my hair.
I guess it is the platinum color people like.
My answer to men who color or are thinking about doing so is to forget about it .
I would never think about coloring my hair now since I get all these complements.
I go to a barber shop that is half beauty salon and the other half is a barber shop.
And it happens every time I go in there the ladies say they wished they had hair like mine.
Forget about color it is to much trouble having to touchup every two weeks.
Anyway I’ll bet you too will look good being platinum .
Wanna Bet ?
I'm with Mature Muscle and Hotrocks on this one. I started getting peppered in my mid-twenties and dyed my hair a few times. Just For Men works, but it is a pain if you have shorter hair because you will have to dye it every few weeks so you don't appear to be dying it. My wife says my grey hair adds character and made fun of me when I dyed my hair, so I quit.
I agree with the above. Don't dye your hair. Dyed hair on a man always looks phony and obvious. My wife agrees. Women love some grey on a man too. Grey on a man is cool.

Besides, Bricks head would look just plain funny with dye on it!
I have grey starting on the sideburns and a couple up top. The sadder ones are on the chest. The even sadder ones further south have yet to come, but when they do, I will investigate "European" styling techniques to minimize the laughter.
Yep I'm with you guys. I tried it and it just looks too dark, and makes me very self conscious in public having died hair. I'm 29 and it sucks getting gray early, but look at who is gray:
Hugh Hefner
Brad Pitt
George Clooney
Almost every man who's portrait is on US currency
Today's fashion has people wanting to look like they stopped aging at 18 yrs. old. Back in the old days guys who had dark hair would wear those white wigs. I keep wondering when the white hair thing is going to make a comeback. For now, I just grin and bear it.
It's my genetics, it's what makes me who I am. I am not apologetic of who I am.
I do believe it's genetics, and not the "worrying" myth that causes gray. But, if it is worrying that causes it, don't make it worse by worrying about it.
I started going grey when I was 12, and 12 years later I'm probably 70% grey. It isn't a big deal and most people comment on how much they like it. And when I don't want to look at it, I just cut it really short.
I'm actually on erythropoietin (Epogen) and have found that since I've been on, my 'greying' has virtually stopped. I was reading an article somewhere that mentioned some connection with increased haemoglobin and oxygen carry stoping this process. I'll post up when I find the article.
Gray hair could be pretty tight if you do it right. Everyone wants to fit in and sh** with dying their hair back to their original color. I say gray is better than no hair at all and gray can be awesome since not many people have it (they usually go from hair to no hair LOL).
