    I'm 42 and it's happening. . I'm newly single. . It's not out of control yet. . but when it gets there. . . well. . I might just have to man-up and dye my hair. . .

    What say you?

    I've been coloring my hair continuously for forty years. If it makes you feel good, do it!

    I am 40 and my hubby is 52, yes 12 yrs older.........anyways.......salt and pepper was sexy while it lasted but now he is going way gray and people mistake me for his sister or ugh...daughter...do the mens dye but the one that leaves some gray...trust me on this unless you want a golden girl for a night on the town. lol

    no, no golden girls for this guy, I checked out his profil and he's only 42 plus a good looking dude,

    you can pull of grey and even white, my pappaw has has WHITE hair for years and he always gets hit on by young girls, I guess it doesn't hurt that he has tons of money lol

    I don't personally think dying your hair is necessary. A man who ages gracefully and confidently is sexy, in my opinion. But I'm not you. Do whatever makes you feel good about yourself. Without that, the way you look to everyone else doesn't really matter.

    No, hair color isn't "necessary" for anyone. Some of us really enjoy it. There's no reason not to do it if you enjoy it.

    S&P is sexy!

    If she doesn't appreciate Salt and Pepper hair, she is too young for you bro!

    Ok. .so the consensus is clearly S&P. .and you think it's 'sexy'. . but would a, say, 35 yr old girl DATE a guy that looks like a geezer?

    There is a third option....Bald.

    I'm 41 and i've been S&P for 4 years starting at my temples. I've been bald as well, i've done the High & Tight hair cut too. Though, I have never dyed my hair, I have to admit that it's been tempting at times. But, the upkeep would be my major concern and cost issue.

    I do have to admit that being S&P does have it's advantages. Though, I am happily married...I have noticed the additional attention that I do receive from ladies at a restaurant or hanging out at the local sports bar with my buddies.

    In the end, it's going to be about how comfortable you are with it.

    If he believes he's a "geezer" then no she won't. But if he comes off as the bad *kitten* he believes he is, he'll be just fine. I always use my parents' age gap as a reference (they're 17 years apart), so I don't believe you should have a problem attracting some lovely younger women.

    Good luck, you'll be fine!

    There are no 35 yr old girl. There are 35 yr old women or there are 35 yr olds who are immature. I say go with the 35 yr old women. Appreciation does come with age and maturity.

    When I met my man, he was 26 and already had quite a bit of grey. (Of course, I thought he was lying *kitten* and much older than he claimed to be.) Now, after a decade of marriage and a hell-spawn later, he's got much more grey. Sexy then, sexier now.

    Salt and pepper. I think it's obvious when men dye their hair. If you have facial hair, I would suggest keeping that under control.
