It has been socially acceptable for men to color their hair
for years now. However, there are a few guidelines one should follow.
No one else in your life might have the nerve to tell you
that you aren’t fooling anyone with that shoe-polish black hair at 45+.
Black hair might have been cool to experiment with in your
early 20’s (like a lot of other things), but even if you are naturally very
dark, your color should be a softer shade such as dark brown.
Even if you are lighter, or unfortunately have highlights
put in intentionally, your high maintenance look is passé’. Go for a more
natural look.
Equally important, is translucence; you want your grey to be
“there” but blended (think George Clooney).
Well-distributed subtle grey can be the best look for a man.
Skunk streaks, and white patches on one’s side of the head, not so much. The
right kind of color designed specifically for men can achieve this.
So rely on your colorist to tell you what looks best for
you.
However, if
you still want to be the guy who wears a belt with suspenders, go right ahead.
