Leave it as it is, the chances are dye will stand out a mile. Richard Gere and George Clooney don't have any issues. smile

If you really have to, then dye it one shade darker than your natural colour & buy the women's stuff which will be cheaper & do exactly the same job.

Just for Men Control GX is decent, it only if you are just going grey and are happy to leave a few bits of grey - been using it for 4-5 years and I have women queuing up.

One of the above statements are not true.

Do not use proper dye if you want to be subtle.

Most men do look great with grey hair, but my wife hates me with grey hair so I need to use it.

My brother who is only 4 years older than me has gone very grey. He is a director type on 6 figs. He looks about 60, when he is 45.

I said use just for men he said no. Even an old colleague who hadn't seen him for a while said he looked really old. Your choice but I would, no shame.

For goodness sake don't.

Just about anybody I know looks rubbish once they start using dye.

Also if you don't have much hair to dye, you can get at least two or three dye sessions from the women's' packets. Just mix 50:50 of the amount required & use the remainder another time.

Although they have the added benefit of looking like Richard Gere and George Clooney.

No offence OP but guess you're not in the same league?

I used just for men for a while but it was a pain in the arse and years later I'm still not really that grey. Don't give a st anymore.

Rubbish to you, because you don't agree with it. Women dye their hair if a bloke wants to then he should.
The issue is going from grey to jet black, start with highlights and gradually bring tone over a few months

??? - it's nothing to do with 'agreeing' with it.

It usually looks rubbish, and others say the same. Totally unnecesary.

I agree. Looks rubbish and isn't necessary unless a person is insecure. Personal choice and all that but if it makes someone feel better about themselves then they should crack on and do it. However, the lack of grey hair confident feeling may be cancelled out by the sneering and jokes made about the hair dye.

To be fair, some women also dye their pubes. Doesn’t make it right.
