Hair Dye

[tnman]

So we have a local weather man, aging but in the public eye and trying to hang on, but no question he dyes his hair jet black, very obvious, but never the less, we have all seen it. Men who dye their hair or facial hair. For me, a 61 year old guy who has gone completely salt and pepper facial hair included it just never crossed my mind to go there. Yesterday afternoon I was opening the pool when I got a call from a bud who wanted to stop by and have a beer, I told him to come on, it's been a couple of months since we have seen each other. So he arrives, we pop a top and start chatting while I am working and after 30 minutes or so off comes the T shirt. Now I consider myself a very furry guy, but he's what I call a silver back, you know the kind, shoulders and back are more than covered, and after a bit I notice a smudge on his back and say something and he comes clean that one of the younger guys he plays with has dyed his body hair from the chin to the feet, then I perk up and take notice and Im sorta shocked at how much thicker all that shit he sporting is looking, I start kidding him about the weather man we all make fun of and we both have a good laugh, but I have to say, it was a damn good look on him, next thing I know he's pulled those shorts down to show me that bush and now I am totally shocked.
So my question is how many men really do this on a regular basis? It frankly never crossed my mind, but after seeing his results, it just got the ole cogs turning, and I thought damn I bet I could go blond, red, or my natural color, which WAS jet black that has turned into a dark brown, but I still can't get over how much it made his fur look thicker if you could call it that, and if it were possible to change colors?
Any thoughts or experience's on the subject?

No experience on the subject but have thought about it. My pubes started graying in my 40's along with my facial hair. What little hair I have left on my head is now 75% gray My chest hair is almost 100% gray now. I have thought about dyeing my goatee or beard to a nice salt and pepper but haven't tried it yet..Although I think a silver fox is exceptionally sexy, on me it just makes me look older (in my opinion). Let me know if you do it and how it turns out.

Thanks man, I saw a guy who bleached his solid white that was pretty cool

Most of us were convinced that our now-retired boss had been dying his hair beginning in his mid 50's.

My beard is the only hair that had started turning white, beginning in my early 30s. Now, at 45, my beard is all white while my temples have only just started turning.

It turns out most white hair is actually clear, so when I tried growing my beard longer, it looked frustratingly thin compared to when it was brown. This probably explains why OP's friend's body hair looks much thicker now that it's dark again.

Because having a white beard made me look much older than I am and I just wanted my beard to look full and thick, I started using Just For Men Control GX Beard Wash a few years ago. Now people often compliment me on how nice my beard looks. They are always shocked when I tell them it is actually completely white if I wasn't coloring it.

The beard wash is much easier to use than the brush-in type dyes. You just wash your beard at the beginning of your shower and leave it on for 5 or 6 minutes while you wash the rest of your body. It won't stain your skin like the brush-in dye often does, which is probably why people are so surprised when I tell them mine is colored. It just looks much more natural. (It will dye your fingernails, though, so you have to be sure to thoroughly wash the suds off them before washing the rest of your body.)

It gradually dyes your beard so you'll likely want to use it every day to get your beard fully colored. Now that mine is, I only use it once or twice a week to bring the new growth up to color.

I don't have much body hair other than pubic hair. I love to be naked and keep a neat looking bush. Recently I've started dying my pubic hair. They are naturally brown but I think a nice dark bush really makes my penis stand out. Here's some pics of me natural and dyed. What do you think?

Thanks for your input and I think it looks better naked with the darker hair.

I did have a period when I would dye my bush darker. I hadn't really noticed as I got older it had gone paler, edging towards grey. I was at local swimming baths and this guy had completed his swim and was going into the showers, stripped off and I was agog. He had the most luxuriant black bush, eye-catching and sensuous - as well as a nice pendant uncut cock growing ut. I thought it looked sexy, one look at my genitalia and I wondered if I could improve my self-esteem.
It was a bit of palaver, I found a dye I could apply and duly stripped off and applied the mixture while observing myself in the bathroom mirror, followed the instructions (though that didn't include playing with myself) and bingo, I had a very dark bush, caught the eye and was really the new center of the universe with nobby growing looking inviting. My first trip to the beach and I was a bit self-aware but I needn't have bothered, my bush, I think, acted like a magnet.
The downside was it needed re-applying, as summer went and winter was upon us almost without trying I stopped. Now I'm a natural grey most of the time though on occasion for parties I've applied short-term hair dye in a variety of colours, my dark green bush went down, well someone did, a treat.

So how often did you need to redo? But you are saying it did make you stand out in a crowd?

I suppose I re-did it every three weeks or so, and yes, in a crowd of other nudes - I went to a lot of swingers parties where it was "clothes at the door" - it looked awesome, and became a focal point you couldn't miss. Make sure it's a good hair colouring or you'll need up like Rudi Guiliani!

I have an older buddy who is pretty hairy chested and dyes his body hair. The last time he did it I was astounded how hot it was and how much more I was attracted to the appearance of it. I couldn't get my face out of his crotch that night and was eating at the base of his dick like I was literally trying to eat and swallow it. I remember how hard he got that night; I think it turned him on to see me uncontrollably going at this cock.

As for dyeing facial hair, I think an aging man has to be careful. If an older man's face is showing too much age, sudden dark hair can intensify his aged face. When dyeing, lighter colors need to be considered. I have salt and pepper hair, still mostly soft brown. My sides are graying more and are actually turning shiny silver and not flat gray, which I like. My facial hair is completely gray. As of late I decided to try a trend I have seen on men that I think can definitely look good. It is dyeing the mustache and leaving the goatee or beard gray. Somehow dyeing the stache makes a world of difference in making an aging man look younger, without taking the dyeing too far.

This is an AI image, but a pretty good example of what I think looks cool when dyeing.

sorry to bump this after two weeks, but I’m a guy with colored facial and head hair since junior high, and I’m a big fan of making the outside match what you see in your mind as the best version of you. I have thoughts about dudes dyeing. Two in particular.

The first is that I swear I’ve never seen anyone using a men’s instant grey coverage product that picked too light of a shade. Not once. Every shade problem I’ve ever seen is that they went one to two shades too dark for their actual skin tone and hair color. Retailers tend to aid and abet this by not routinely stocking all of the lighter shades. Here’s the thing: these products don’t lift the base color, so the only harm in going too light is that the result tends to look more like the reality of facial and hair. The number of guys who have truly coal-black, especially in sun-exposed areas is really small. Picking one to two shades lighter than you think you need will give a more natural, dimensional appearance that will also “wear in” better.

The second is that they don’t follow the box directions - which is a shame, because the Just for Men Beard & Mustache formula instructions are some of the best, clearest, most-educational hair color instructions in any consumer or professional color. So well done. They even explain why not to mix using the bristle end of the included brush. But dudes ignore the prep instructions and timing at their own peril. If the product says five minutes on dry hair and then shower it out, they really mean it.

Finally, if you’re bound and determined to bleach anything, plan to apply a toner (either permanent or demi-permanent) or it’s going to look like yellow crayon. Most guys with blond pubes tend to be ash or strawberry/copper, not golden or off-white. Same with beards and body hair to a lesser extent.

My hung bud is 67 and dyes his head hair and it looks good. He had told me, and I saw it on several occasions that he dyes his body hair too, as he has a very hairy chest and stomach. I am amazed at how hot it is dyed and darker again. He said he feels so much older seeing all that gray chest hair.

One thing to consider about dying your head hair when you're older is how aged your face is. If you are relatively aged in the face, don't dye your hair too dark. It will make you look older, as your hair will look young and to me it will draw more attention the age on your face. Go with a soft color if you're going to dye your head hair.

If you don't dye your hair but want a younger look, dye your eyebrows. You might be amazed at the difference that can make and I have seen much older men whose eyebrows stayed dark naturally, so dyeing the brows can look natural. Dyeing just your mustache can make for a much more youthful look too. It's a matter of opinion, but I've seen men dye just their mustache and left the beard gray and it looked cool.

You study men like some people books. Keen eye you have.

Lol, I am observant and even if just to me, when I see something I like or something I think looks wrong or amiss, I usually catch it right away. No bragging at all, just me. Typical trait of a lot of gay men, I think. Not a bad trait to have in my book. Finding balance in everything is the key, even its dyeing your hair, lol.

Kinda like an enhanced bulge, to me the best enhanced look is on the subtle and natural looking side, not a bowling ball in the pants, which figuratively speaking I have seen some guys do.
