Coloring your beard-i.e getting older-what works?

[Nostril Cheese]

There is much to be learned from this. These "chicks" dont think you are manly enough.

I think JYL suggested an interesting idea.... the so-called "rinse" treatment that women use at hair salons is very expensive (~$40 for one treatment that doesn't last very long), but many women buy "rinses" for a reasonable price at the big drug stores, and do their own treatments at home whenever they want, and nobody knows. Maybe you could take a look at those products to see what's available in your hair color, and give it a try? If the rinse works for you, then you could probably use it once a week and be fine.

I have no idea why it's called a "rinse"... and we never had this conversation.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

That pretty much sums up El-Lay and Hollyweird...

Drying your hair or beard doesn't foul no one......now you are just the old guy who dries his beard. Get over it if the women has a problem with the color of your hair then she not worth wasting too much of your time.

This. For a couple of years I used the Just for Men beard coloring. Worked well with for me, but what a hassle. Had to use it every week. Finally just quit and keep my beard (actually a goatee) clipped very short.

Men who dye their beard and hair are only fooling themselves. Everybody knows it and only a really good friend will tell you that it looks silly. You have been dealt a hand of cards, you don't get to reshuffle the deck. Live with it or shave it. My beard is 3 colors grey almost grey and black, it matches my hair( what's left of that). I'm 61 and women my age and as young as in their 40's still find me attractive. Unless yer trying to pick up 20 year olds, and they think yer creepy because you dye yer hair and beard, most women really don't care.

The problem is its obvious. A bit like hair pieces or transplants. And as men somehow we're not allowed the same consideration as women.

If you want to look younger, shave off your beard. Will take off ten years or more. Seriously.

Cheers
