Greying beard

    I shaved off my beard about 2 months ago and have since let it grow back. But to my surprise I have a nice grey patch on it.

    One of the managers in my office has recently had his beard go grey as well even though his hair is the same colour.

    Whats the general opinion on it ? Do the ladies like it ? should I embrace it and let it spread ?

    Nothing wrong with a bit of grey imo, this man below got a whole lot hotter when the grey appeared!

    Loads of Irish men are like that.

    I know someone who has a black, ginger and grey beard. Nothing wrong with a bit of grey.

    I gather you probably have brown hair, ye anyone with brown hair generally has a gingerish beard*.







    *as the hair on our heards doesn't have any ginger in it we still maintain our ability to have a soul though :p

    My beard has also started to show some silver (its not grey lads, it silver) which is fine by me. Its now has brown, red, black and silver hairs, but I'm hoping it'll develop a lot more silver so I can go for that Mr. Miyagi look that just so suits us pasty Irish blokeys.

    Count me in Black/dark brown/red and now sliver, just starting to get the salt n peppa look on my head too, dont mind the sliver lining it can all go silver as long as it stays intact....going to have to insist on 30% off the price of my monthly cut at my barber(sharron in clane) if this hair loss keeps up at this rate....
