Started going gray in late 20s. Dyed my hair all through my 30s. Finally my hairstylist told me to go natural and rock it. That was about 46 . I’ve been gray ever since. I got lots of compliments when I went gray. At 52...I’m grateful to have hair.
At the end of the day, it’s just colour (or lack thereof). Embrace what you have and rock it with confidence. That’s what makes a positive impression on other people. One’s personality should outshine their beard. Peace and Love
Beardbrand changed my life and the tips you guys give really helps us all. I used to get frustrated with my beard and the way you guys motivate others to keep growing is really beneficial to all.
“We should strive to be content.” Greg, I needed those words right now, and it just so happens I heard them from a beard color video. Contentment is not an alternative to happiness. It’s a pathway. And it’s not as easy as it sounds. Thank you.
@@jmr6117 dying a beard has no use other than fashion statement looking good if you have grey and don't want it you dye it to make it look good be "fashionable"
So AGREEE!! Nothing looks worse than a 50+ older guy to have black beard that is even blacker that it was when he was 18! Does nothing but draws attention to an OLD man with dyed beard! Looks horrid! Just embrace it or erase it! People actually laugh about it! No one ever has said,,, damn that guys DYED beard looks good as hell! Best beard I’ve ever seen!!!!!👈 not gonna happen!!!
Got my first grey at 12 years old. By 30 I was completely grey. I've used just for men for the better part of 10 years and am just now cozying up to letting it just go...thanks for the content
I’m 43 and my beard and hair have started to go grey and I’m fully embracing it, not because of fashion but because I personally like the way it looks.
Nice!!!! I’m not a fan of men who dye their hair dark brown… embrace the grey… it’s so distinguished and lovely. I bet your hair and beard looks amazing. 🔥
Bro I just checked your channel out now and I hope to God my hair looks like yours by the time I'm 30! I've been greying since 15 same as you I'm now 24 and I'd say my hair is around 10% grey or in my case white like yours! My greys are like translucent white hairs and I'm pretty sure my hair will look very similar to yours by the time I'm 30. It looks awesome!
I'm growing a beard for 2,5 years. At the beginning, I was frustrated with several grays in my 33, so I was cutting them. But later I found that it's something that I can't control and that grays are me. I've embraced them, so now I have dozens of grays, almost like Carlos. It's better to gray gradually, than to color them.
a lot of people will never really get grey hair , since you can only really get grey hair if your hair was black to begin with. If you have brown hair or so you will get white hairs mixed with brown, but that's not going to look grey

I am 55 years old and started going grey in my mid 20's. Going grey runs in my family at a young age and never really had any concerns about it. The saddest thing I see is a guy who gets a bad dye job, I say just accept it, as I do going bald and wrinkles. Glad to see you maintaining a professional classic look, unlike another youtube personality I use to watch. Beard on and looking forward to the next video.
I'm in my mid 20's. I started to grey a couple of years ago. Its not drastic but its starting to transition. I have neither a love or a hatred for going grey. I wouldn't want to speed it up nor slow it down. I believe it is just a part of living through life. Just like scars its a sign that you have walked the road of life.
The point of my comment was that you look awesome and it would be a shame for you to change that by dying your hair. I've had some grey hairs coming through for the last few years. I'm 27 now, and they are becoming more prominent. I wouldn't do anything to speed it up or slow it down, but I'm just enjoying the process of watching things change. This video has made me reflect. Over the last few months of growing my beard and coming across beard brand videos, I've taken a very different approach towards myself. I've got two opposing things - I'm both taking more care of my appearance, while being more accepting of whatever is flawed/unique about myself. It's great, and Beardbrand has played a big part in that. So thanks Greg, Jeff, Eric, Carlos and all the team and Beardbrand. You're doing great work!
I will tell you why I want my hair to hurry up and go full grey. Although, I would say about 20% of my hair is grey. I have worked in the same place for the past 15 years and I am 39 years old. Most of the people I work with have still been there longer than I have. Working in our IT department, people still consider me as a kid because I started working there when I was 26. Still being the younger of the workforce, people don't fully realize that I have friends my age who are grandparents now. I don't fully get taken seriously. My boss and I both suffer from this. We are the only 2 members of our department. So, we run into a lot of road blocks because the older generation still feels like we do not have the age or experience that they do. I can't make them realize that they were 39 when we came on board, and they had much higher ranks and were taken more seriously than we are at 39. So, I'm looking forward to more visual representation of my age so that people will treat us as the adults we are.
Got grey hair appearing one side of my beard and head hair is starting thin at the age of 34. I say embrace who you are and stop chasing something your not, best way to happiness 🙂 I think your style really suits you.
i am 41 and my beard started going grey at about 28. my beard in now about 80% white. i refuse to dye my beard. i am a Army Vet and i wear these greys like a badge of honor. i dont really worry about what other people think. if someone dont like my beard well that is their problem.
I was born with a patch of white hair which I have always liked when it grows out. Now the ginger patches in my beard are gradually becoming noticably white just short of my 30th. whilst I havnt been asking for it, I'm really enjoying the salt and pepper look in both beard and hair and wouldn't even think of dying it.
By GOD's grace I've been allowed to see the ripe age of 46 years-old; as I'm getting the beginnings of a salt&pepper hair color job starting to happen naturally here! I'm thankful to Jesus! :) ...that I'm still around after the 2 emergency room hospital visits in this life + some funerals I attended of people I knew that are gone now. You're right there sir: it's all about being content (adjective) as that comes from having content (noun) in one's life.
I started going grey at 19, I get compliments on my hair all the time and people want to have my look I rock naturally! It’s an ego booster really but I rather have the option to have a full head of hair or go bald by choice than not! Plus I look good either way! So stay confident and people will read into that no matter what color your hair!
Hey ya Greg, I’m 43 and very happy with the way my beard is growing out. I’m lucky to have a similar shading as you with grey mutton chops and dark handle bars that extend into my beard, I’m loving that you’ve shown me the possibility that I can have a big beard. I’m 3 months in and love my look and all ready many people have given me positive responses, I am bold as well so the beard I’m constructing is very dramatic thank for showing me that we grey men can be debonair, beard on dude🤘
I’m 25 now, and I currently have quite a lot of grey hair on my head. I noticed the first grey hairs when I was 17 and I was so afraid back then, because I was so young and I couldn’t explain why this would happen to me. Stress? I don’t think so, because how stressed can a 17-year-old boy be? I think it is mostly due to genetics. Now that I’m 25 I’ve recently started to enjoy those grey hair of mine, also because a lot of girls love the salt and pepper look on a man...they say that in a few years it will make me look a lot like Patrick Dempsey lol! Anyway, I’m never going to dye my hair...I want to accept myself for who I am, no matters what other people think, and I want to take and be grateful for what Mother Nature gave to me!
I've had a few greys for years, starting in my mid 20's, I'm approaching 33 now and there hasn't been a massive increase, just the odd one beard wise and they come through white rather than grey. I have a really bad habit of pulling my beard hairs out and the grey/whites actually made them targets despite the fact I loved them being there. The contrast between light and dark looks good to me. A friend the same age as me dyed his hair from his early - mid 20's as he is full on grey. Then he just let it be and it's just the norm now. His beard is still fully dark which is a bit odd. He was embarrassed about the grey at a young age and spent who knows how much on hiding it? My approach is that I embrace going grey but I have zero desire to fake it. I guess it's just a colour at the end of the day. Just like people dye their hair brunette, they are free to go grey or white. Suspect a lot of younger people making it white or grey will look stupid though as it does suit a more aged face. I'm ready and waiting ☺️
What wrong with people these days?! Ive had grey since 14 years old and its no fun!!! But Greg grey just looks really good on you and the colour contrast right now looks awesome.
Next you'll see stupid women purposely try and cut their hair to mimic a receding hairline or go completely bald. I personally think that young people regardless of sex should embrace their youth , no grey hair , no beards. Instead of trying to wish for father time to come faster. Your only young once and it doesn't last that long.
I started going gray in my teens I remember seeing my first few gray hairs when I was 15 at the front right of my head hair. Fast forward to 32 and I am 80% gray on my head, my sides is basically all gray while the top is a little bit black left. My beard is about 60-40 in favour of gray and the chest hair is following. I'm not bothering about it, it is who I am. I've always been told by people that I'm wiser than my years so maybe it's just playing out on me physically now.
In the words of Hercule Poirot, "Straighten your tie" :) Other than that, looking great! The gray/white is definitely a plus. I used to dye my beard when the gray was first coming in but my skin underneath reacted rather negatively to the Just For Men beard dye that I was using and I developed open sores which while not really serious was still not a result I desired. I then tried an all natural, temporary, henna-based beard color called Wolfshead which was quite gentle and actually worked pretty well. It would shampoo out over time though and did over time change the color of the beard even after it washed out so you'd lose the nice white/gray until it grew out. Eventually, I just stopped worrying about it and realized it just looked better if I left it alone. I always looked older than I was from my first mustache at 16 and beard at 17 so why sweat it now? So what if I look 60 when I'm in my mid 40's? lol Actually, I think my skin looks younger with the beard because of all the extra Beardbrand oil and balm that gets rubbed into my face when doing my beard. Beard on and keep on growing!
Thanks for sharing your story! For sure, some guys react pretty badly to Just For Men dye, so as we go grey, sometimes the best thing to do is to simply embrace the new look. We say to rock your own unique style! - Jack
Darker hipster beards look cool. I think you know you've crossed into middle age (or at least proto-middle age) when you're glad to look younger. I'm 33 and glad I'm not graying yet (or god forbid balding), it trips me out there's guys my age that are already gray af and actually feel proud of it and don't mind looking old! I think younger dudes in their 20s might like trying it out just for fun, but once you're old for real, you'll be glad to still look young.
I'm a woman, and I couldn't wait for my hair to turn grey... My parents started to grey in their mid-fifties and I'm a late bloomer as well. At 48, I'm just starting to see bits of grey along my hair line -- and I love it! 😄
i'm 23 years old and my first gray hairs came when i was 19, for some reason allot of people comment on it for being awesome. and i think it's better then turning bald at my age. :)
I started having grey and white hairs since my late teens... Now at 36 years young, I have a GREAT balance of shiny black, white and grey hairs on my head and beard!!! All natural no need for dyeing! 😀
Im 29 and probably as grey as Greg in this video started getting them very young. Was bald for the most part when I was younger but now just let it grow and style it proudly!
I'm young, and I bleached my thick hair and made it Snow White. However, I left my thick eyebrows dark and my beard as well but trimmed it very tight to the skin. Needless to say, I love it & I get lots of compliments from both genders. Having said that, you're a good looking man & the Salt & Pepper looks Awesome on you... Ciao~
I'm 41 now and going grey...thank God! Why? Because I'm ginger I've had years of abuse and piss taking over my hair colour, the one good thing is my hair is very thick and fast growing and still have a full thatch on top I did try dying it once but the ginger was so strong it nuked any hair dye, so yea glad I'm finally going grey, my daughter has inherited my hair colour and double crown poor kid but red I think looks better on girls.
I'm now starting to grow my first full beard in decades, having only had goatees in the past. The main reason I think is that greying, or more like whiting in my case of my facial hair. I think we just need to remember that it's a natural process and even at 53 I still consider myself 18 inside! I'm now on my 4th week of growth, and although grey, and a tad scruffy at the moment, it's getting compliments. Thanks for your inspirational videos :)
My profile picture is from way back, but now I have a salt and pepper beard. More salt these days! Before I grew my beard I have been highlighting and low lighting the hair on my head to mask the grey. I didn't have a lot of grey and I've typically looked younger than my age, so I opted for a youthful look for my hair. Now that I have my beard I am embracing the grey in my hair! I'm 52 years old now and I just try to be the best me I can be at any age!
I just turned 74 and 2+ months into a Covid beard. I realize that I'm not young anymore (and my body proves that to me daily) and even wanting to look young is in the rear view mirror. That is, I want a white beard and fortunately that's how it's coming in. Just slight salt and pepper in the mustache but that's OK. Otherwise I'm near to a 'Ken Rogers' beard and am impatient to get to the 4 month mark where I can consider what style I really want and see my barber. My teenage granddaughter thinks I should go full Santa, so there's that. No opposition from my wife either, thankfully. At 30ish I did my first beard, very dark and very unkempt and it only lasted a year or so. This time around there is so much more information available and I'm really enjoying the white beard and all the options I have. I'd post a picture here if I could but social media experts can find me and my beard out there in the ether.
I'm 32 and over the last 2 years I've pulled about a handful of gray/white hairs from my beard. Now probably in about 10 years from now I'll dye my beard because I haven't seen any gray/white hairs on the top of my head. My hair is thinning out on top, too.
I used to be able to cut out all the white hairs. Until it got totally out of control and i couldn't keep up. At that point I just totally gave up and embraced it. White/gray hair. Embrace the suck!
Call me crazy but I think white and grey hair is sexy especially on a women! I'm 35, started getting grey hair at 33, and I love my grey! Just like my scars and tattoos they tell a story.
I didn't have much of a problem with going grey or going bald. I'm guessing mainly because as far back as I can remember, my father was bald from the front to the crown and the rest was grey. Growing up with my dad like that, I was probably already use to the concept when it started happening to me. I have had a few people tell me that I would look younger if I colored my beard but I'm liking the grey so, it stays!
Been graying since i was about 22 years old (39 now). Still have some color and my beard is dark and a bit ginger with grey and white ends. I love the look.
Turning 54 this year, but I've dyed my beard since I was in my 20's. When I was young, my beard didn't have a uniform color, with brownish, more blondish, and even reddish areas and looked patchy and uneven. So having started back then just to have a uniform color that matched my natural hair color, I've continued. I started balding in my late 20's and by my 30's I began shaving my head. Then I started dying it to more closely match my eyebrows, but as the gray has become more prominent, most of the patchy coloring is gone and has turned gray and only the darkest parts of my original color have remained. I'm liking where it's ending up.
Im about to turn 31 and i would say I’m 50% grey/white in the beard. My chest is the same. I would always shave. But now I’m like zero fucks given . Gonna grow this out
I think the main factor is that naturally grey hair often is very coarse, while dyed hair can be soft and healthy looking while still giving you a wise appearance
So many do not really go grey ever. You only get grey hair if your hair was black once.. However, if you were blonde, redhead or had brown hair, your hair will be a mix of that and white hair..but not grey.
I had white hair since the age of 16, I used to dye it but after getting around 23, I stopped and focused more on maintaining a good haircut and people liked it.
For a long time I worked in security and law enforcement which required me to be clean shaven. Now I'm in my early 40s and have started to grow my beard again and have a bit of grey in it which I leave alone.
Last time I grew a beard was about 7 years ago. My hair was mostly brown with a few grays. I didn’t keep my beard more than a month. Just a few months ago I decided to grow a beard for good, meaning that I’m determined to keep it no matter what. Somewhat to my surprise my beard is mostly gray now. But I like it. My aim is for my beard to look as natural as possible, which means no trendy beard styles. I’m currently writing a book that will discuss the history of shaving, and why it’s unnatural. My research is what led me to finally make the decision to go natural, and fight against social engineering.
Totally get that, we don't all have to go for the trendiest styles. Sometimes the absolute best look for us is to just go natural with what our beards want to do. That's not to say that you shouldn't take care of your beard but letting it growing is a great way to go! - Jack
My hair started changing at 16. I dyed it into my early 20s, but it started to thin, and I worried it was the dye causing that. By 30, my hair was pure white. 41 now, and everyone seems to love the white hair. I get asked if I color it white all the time, and yes old ladies want to touch it for some reason.
I color my beard, I dislike the damn grey hairs. Now I am trying to grow a beard in full and I am a little more relaxed on the grey showing through. It is what it is, and I will see what happens once my 6 to 7 months of growing are up. Then I shall decide how to shape my look. Good video and keep up the great work. Keep growing!
I started going grey at about 35. I colored for years. When I turned 50, I just got tired of the coloring. I've let it (hair/beard) go grey and have had so much positive feed back. Very happy. Just leave it alone.
For years I've been growing a grey beard and get 2 or 3 months into it and get discouraged with the grey and shave it off. I wasn't until I saw how you rock the grey that I've decided to let it grow. Thanks for the motivation and for everyone else that can't wait...careful what you wish for. With the grey comes all the other "benefits" of aging...haha!
I feel I may be in the minority to not want grey hair yet. Part of me is content with the fact I am thirty seven without gray hair yet, and without a longer beard, I look younger than my real age. At the same time, due to a younger appearance, I have always found myself wanting to dress, speak, and act in a more mature manner to be taken seriously.
I'm 26 and I've got a couple of greys/whites in my beard. I really like them; I think they add some flare. I also have one black, thick strain. Otherwise I'm a Redbeard. And I have brown hair. Don't ask me, for all I know, I'm a chimera :)
Just let it go naturally grey, it will get there. Of course I do bleach mine in December for the season., its harsh on it though. But it does even out any yellow areas and those odd dark hairs that seem to come with aging as well.
I've started getting gray in my 30s but when u have gray people wanna call u pops, old school,daddy and gram pa it can be annoying but I still rock it all that dying can take u hair out!
My hair genetics haven't been that great on me. I started to recede at 15/16, sported my first grey head hairs at 18/19. I'm now 28, almost 29. Most of my head hair is grey, what I have left - major hairloss but I keep it shaved to the bone. I'm actually having SMP next week to make it look like I have a full head of shaved hair. I started getting a few greys in my beard about 2-3 years ago, I now have about 15-20 in my chin after recent inspection couple months ago (I keep my beard couple of inches long). At first I was devastated "oh no, first my head and now I'm losing my lovely black beard". Now I just want it all to go grey quickly cos I honestly think it will look awesome with a shaved head as long as its neat and trimmed. There are greater things to worry about in life. I'm just gonna rock my greying beard with confidence until I get that Geralt of Rivia look.
I started to see grey hairs when I was around 16 and slowly I've gotten more and more until now at 38 the hair on my head has been completely grey for about 10 years or so now. Although I've never died my hair, it's only the last few years I've really 'embraced' it. Although the my facial hair has virtually no grey at all.
I have to admit, that I LOVE my salt n pepper hair! It looks fantastic on short hair. It does look dramatic, chic and modern...as strange as it sounds considering that i'm now in my 40's. At this point in time, I'm leaving my very dark brown hair to mix effortlessly with my grey. Cheers! VEE
Personally myself at 55 I don't know why you would want to dye your hair grey. If you are young I've coloured my hair medium to dark brown since I was in my late 30s . But at 55 I'm in a dilemma as to should I just let my hair go grey. My parents bless them say I can still get away with darker hair. Yet my grandparents did not colour their hair and were still dark until their early 70s But I feel at 55 am I just making a fool of myself. My actual grey shade I don't like it's like an oxidizing aluminium,. But I have thought about colouring it silver grey. Which to me is a nice shade of grey more dynamic. So I'm going to try this and if it makes me look way older I will colour it back Brown the same day. Like I said dilemma!
This videos exploring points of view on different subjects related to men's lifestyle are very good. Greg is an awesome orator. Keep up the good work!!!
People with premature grey hair only have it on their head and no other place..ugh...so stop askin' !!... It's genetic,runs in the family, you can't obviously change your genes, embrace what you have..and everyone is going grey these days..and you have 'em naturally..so #loveyourself
Kwaninoni I mean ..I already started to go grey, the only annoying thing about it is when people notice it and they are like :"omg you have so much grey hair 😱😱"but other than that ,I feel like it is a part of me .
I'm 23 years old & I'm having white hairs pop up in my beard, I don't like it & I have plucked some ( the ones that really stick out) & I've thought about dying it but I don't really know what dye to use, I thought about just for men but I have see some people have very serious reactions to it so I don't really want to use it, if I find something more natural I might use that, great video by the way.
This fall I started to grow a larger beard to be Santa for the kids. Now that's done I like the look in the mirror and the notice. I enjoyed the tips here so I guess I'll be needing more hair products of course. Geez, still getting the looks at 59. Who knew?
Grey all the way! Trying to replicate your look minus the hair on top. Thank you for the videos, I️’ve been growing since February your tips/insight have been extremely helpful.
I say embrace the grey hair. I'm 32 and have a couple grey hairs in my beard it bothered me at first but you get used to it. Nothing wrong with grey hair.
Alot of people in "my generation" (late 30s - early 40s) want to look older and get grey or don't care about it, I believe, because it gives them an excuse to be lazy and not exercise and not be as active and be like "oh I'm old now," even though they're not....I have grey at the temple and on my chin and that looks good because of the contrast with blond/brown hair elsewhere. But I don't want to be all grey!!!!!
Started going gray in late 20s. Dyed my hair all through my 30s. Finally my hairstylist told me to go natural and rock it. That was about 46 . I’ve been gray ever since. I got lots of compliments when I went gray. At 52...I’m grateful to have hair.
At the end of the day, it’s just colour (or lack thereof). Embrace what you have and rock it with confidence. That’s what makes a positive impression on other people. One’s personality should outshine their beard. Peace and Love
Beardbrand changed my life and the tips you guys give really helps us all. I used to get frustrated with my beard and the way you guys motivate others to keep growing is really beneficial to all.
“We should strive to be content.”
Greg, I needed those words right now, and it just so happens I heard them from a beard color video. Contentment is not an alternative to happiness. It’s a pathway. And it’s not as easy as it sounds. Thank you.
Going bald... going grey.... it is what it is. Doing a dye job 99% of the time looks fake. I'd rather be an honest grey and bald than look plastic.
charles kozlowski 50 years old and tried dyeing my beard. I hated it and now I own my Grey. Thinning top,ni way is a comb over coming either
It's got nothing to do with looking plastic it's a fashion statement

We should stop saying grey and start calling it silver.
Tim Lundqvist *White
a lot of people will never really get grey hair , since you can only really get grey hair if your hair was black to begin with. If you have brown hair or so you will get white hairs mixed with brown, but that's not going to look grey

Some people go grey, some go white.

I've had some grey hairs coming through for the last few years. I'm 27 now, and they are becoming more prominent. I wouldn't do anything to speed it up or slow it down, but I'm just enjoying the process of watching things change.
This video has made me reflect. Over the last few months of growing my beard and coming across beard brand videos, I've taken a very different approach towards myself. I've got two opposing things - I'm both taking more care of my appearance, while being more accepting of whatever is flawed/unique about myself. It's great, and Beardbrand has played a big part in that.
So thanks Greg, Jeff, Eric, Carlos and all the team and Beardbrand. You're doing great work!
I will tell you why I want my hair to hurry up and go full grey. Although, I would say about 20% of my hair is grey. I have worked in the same place for the past 15 years and I am 39 years old. Most of the people I work with have still been there longer than I have. Working in our IT department, people still consider me as a kid because I started working there when I was 26. Still being the younger of the workforce, people don't fully realize that I have friends my age who are grandparents now. I don't fully get taken seriously. My boss and I both suffer from this. We are the only 2 members of our department. So, we run into a lot of road blocks because the older generation still feels like we do not have the age or experience that they do. I can't make them realize that they were 39 when we came on board, and they had much higher ranks and were taken more seriously than we are at 39. So, I'm looking forward to more visual representation of my age so that people will treat us as the adults we are.
I’ll probably have grey hair by the time beardbrand restocks their products.
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA LMAO XD
I know thats why i went honest amish
They're probably waiting on kids in India to make them for pennies and sell them at an higher price? 😂
dude LMAO!
I started getting grays when I was 22, by 30 it was all gray. I’m just glad I still have hair !!!
I started to grey at 25 but my first grey my sister found when I was 13 now I am 37 grey hair and black beard 😁
Started at 15/16 now 24. Hoping to be fully white by 30! (mine are literally like translucent white hairs)
@@qEnergize that honestly sounds like itd look really cool
I started getting gray at 19, I'm 25 now and 30% gray.
Got grey hair appearing one side of my beard and head hair is starting thin at the age of 34. I say embrace who you are and stop chasing something your not, best way to happiness 🙂
I think your style really suits you.
i am 41 and my beard started going grey at about 28. my beard in now about 80% white. i refuse to dye my beard. i am a Army Vet and i wear these greys like a badge of honor. i dont really worry about what other people think. if someone dont like my beard well that is their problem.
I was born with a patch of white hair which I have always liked when it grows out. Now the ginger patches in my beard are gradually becoming noticably white just short of my 30th. whilst I havnt been asking for it, I'm really enjoying the salt and pepper look in both beard and hair and wouldn't even think of dying it.
I’m 27 my head is going grey fast, I’d say 40% grey at the moment. And I’ve found a few grey hairs in my stache, I’m doing well!!
By GOD's grace I've been allowed to see the ripe age of 46 years-old; as I'm getting the beginnings of a salt&pepper hair color job starting to happen naturally here!
I'm thankful to Jesus! :)
...that I'm still around after the 2 emergency room hospital visits in this life + some funerals I attended of people I knew that are gone now.
You're right there sir: it's all about being content (adjective) as that comes from having content (noun) in one's life.
I’m 46 & dye my hair & beard black. I’m also 5’2” & very young-looking for my age. I know it’s kinda vain but I wanna ride this out while I still can.
joseph bernard more power to you
Hahahaha!
I am also very gray and used to dye it but since i have a young appearance it looks pretty good on me at least I think
I started going grey at 19, I get compliments on my hair all the time and people want to have my look I rock naturally! It’s an ego booster really but I rather have the option to have a full head of hair or go bald by choice than not! Plus I look good either way! So stay confident and people will read into that no matter what color your hair!
Hey ya Greg, I’m 43 and very happy with the way my beard is growing out. I’m lucky to have a similar shading as you with grey mutton chops and dark handle bars that extend into my beard, I’m loving that you’ve shown me the possibility that I can have a big beard. I’m 3 months in and love my look and all ready many people have given me positive responses, I am bold as well so the beard I’m constructing is very dramatic thank for showing me that we grey men can be debonair, beard on dude🤘
I’m 25 now, and I currently have quite a lot of grey hair on my head. I noticed the first grey hairs when I was 17 and I was so afraid back then, because I was so young and I couldn’t explain why this would happen to me. Stress? I don’t think so, because how stressed can a 17-year-old boy be? I think it is mostly due to genetics. Now that I’m 25 I’ve recently started to enjoy those grey hair of mine, also because a lot of girls love the salt and pepper look on a man...they say that in a few years it will make me look a lot like Patrick Dempsey lol! Anyway, I’m never going to dye my hair...I want to accept myself for who I am, no matters what other people think, and I want to take and be grateful for what Mother Nature gave to me!
The grey hair will come soon enough. Enjoy each stage of life while your in it.
Shawn Jacobs wise words shawn
To some people, playing around with their hair color and style is part of enjoying the stage of life when you have full, healthy hair.
I conferm that cause I already have grey hair and I did not see it coming. ......i am 15 😢😢😢
Well said
I've had a few greys for years, starting in my mid 20's, I'm approaching 33 now and there hasn't been a massive increase, just the odd one beard wise and they come through white rather than grey. I have a really bad habit of pulling my beard hairs out and the grey/whites actually made them targets despite the fact I loved them being there.
The contrast between light and dark looks good to me. A friend the same age as me dyed his hair from his early - mid 20's as he is full on grey. Then he just let it be and it's just the norm now. His beard is still fully dark which is a bit odd. He was embarrassed about the grey at a young age and spent who knows how much on hiding it?
My approach is that I embrace going grey but I have zero desire to fake it.
I guess it's just a colour at the end of the day. Just like people dye their hair brunette, they are free to go grey or white.
Suspect a lot of younger people making it white or grey will look stupid though as it does suit a more aged face. I'm ready and waiting ☺️
Grey/white hair looks amazing on men who are well groomed and handsome ANY DAY!!!! Women love it!!!!’
What wrong with people these days?!
Ive had grey since 14 years old and its no fun!!!
But Greg grey just looks really good on you and the colour contrast right now looks awesome.
Ikr, my hair is already going grey and friends make fun of me
Next you'll see stupid women purposely try and cut their hair to mimic a receding hairline or go completely bald. I personally think that young people regardless of sex should embrace their youth , no grey hair , no beards. Instead of trying to wish for father time to come faster. Your only young once and it doesn't last that long.
I Like That, I Love That
Peeps, do whatever you want to your hair. Gray, brown, blue, tangerine, DGAF what anyone says, just make yourself happy. Life’s too short.
I started going gray in my teens I remember seeing my first few gray hairs when I was 15 at the front right of my head hair. Fast forward to 32 and I am 80% gray on my head, my sides is basically all gray while the top is a little bit black left.
My beard is about 60-40 in favour of gray and the chest hair is following. I'm not bothering about it, it is who I am. I've always been told by people that I'm wiser than my years so maybe it's just playing out on me physically now.
In the words of Hercule Poirot, "Straighten your tie" :) Other than that, looking great! The gray/white is definitely a plus. I used to dye my beard when the gray was first coming in but my skin underneath reacted rather negatively to the Just For Men beard dye that I was using and I developed open sores which while not really serious was still not a result I desired. I then tried an all natural, temporary, henna-based beard color called Wolfshead which was quite gentle and actually worked pretty well. It would shampoo out over time though and did over time change the color of the beard even after it washed out so you'd lose the nice white/gray until it grew out. Eventually, I just stopped worrying about it and realized it just looked better if I left it alone. I always looked older than I was from my first mustache at 16 and beard at 17 so why sweat it now? So what if I look 60 when I'm in my mid 40's? lol Actually, I think my skin looks younger with the beard because of all the extra Beardbrand oil and balm that gets rubbed into my face when doing my beard.
Beard on and keep on growing!
Thanks for sharing your story!
For sure, some guys react pretty badly to Just For Men dye, so as we go grey, sometimes the best thing to do is to simply embrace the new look. We say to rock your own unique style!

I started getting gray hair early in my 20's. My beard is all gray now that I am 51. I get compliments on it. :)
The best looking grey beard ever
ajith ajju i like the way he has those 2 black stripes on his beard...looks awesome
Look up "Gray Bailey" on TH-cam, then come back to this comment and say that.
Trippy Atheist nope!!!! Gregs looks more epic.
Shaf Serious look at Gray Baileys much older videos, with his majestic sliver beard, Greg's looks like a dirty grey but good at the same time.
Trippy Atheist lol ive seen all his vids. I vote Greg.
I hate grey hair. KIDDING:)))
Gray Bailey you rock that sliver beard, or did lol.
I have a huge silver beard. Every now and then I let it out of the skin LOL
Gray Bailey hahaha. Keep them videos coming. 👍👍
I miss the big beard! Keep up the great videos :)
Gray Bailey You rock it beautifully
Darker hipster beards look cool. I think you know you've crossed into middle age (or at least proto-middle age) when you're glad to look younger. I'm 33 and glad I'm not graying yet (or god forbid balding), it trips me out there's guys my age that are already gray af and actually feel proud of it and don't mind looking old! I think younger dudes in their 20s might like trying it out just for fun, but once you're old for real, you'll be glad to still look young.
i love the grey hair like yours and alessandro manfredini . salt and pepper hairstyle is the new trend
I mean grey is a "color" as is blonde or brown or red etc. Adding tones of bluish grey does for sure make hair look good!
I'm a woman, and I couldn't wait for my hair to turn grey... My parents started to grey in their mid-fifties and I'm a late bloomer as well. At 48, I'm just starting to see bits of grey along my hair line -- and I love it! 😄
i'm 23 years old and my first gray hairs came when i was 19, for some reason allot of people comment on it for being awesome. and i think it's better then turning bald at my age. :)
I started having grey and white hairs since my late teens... Now at 36 years young, I have a GREAT balance of shiny black, white and grey hairs on my head and beard!!! All natural no need for dyeing! 😀
Im 29 and probably as grey as Greg in this video started getting them very young. Was bald for the most part when I was younger but now just let it grow and style it proudly!
I'm young, and I bleached my thick hair and made it Snow White. However, I left my thick eyebrows dark and my beard as well but trimmed it very tight to the skin. Needless to say, I love it & I get lots of compliments from both genders. Having said that, you're a good looking man & the Salt & Pepper looks Awesome on you... Ciao~
I'm 41 now and going grey...thank God! Why? Because I'm ginger I've had years of abuse and piss taking over my hair colour, the one good thing is my hair is very thick and fast growing and still have a full thatch on top I did try dying it once but the ginger was so strong it nuked any hair dye, so yea glad I'm finally going grey, my daughter has inherited my hair colour and double crown poor kid but red I think looks better on girls.
I'm now starting to grow my first full beard in decades, having only had goatees in the past. The main reason I think is that greying, or more like whiting in my case of my facial hair. I think we just need to remember that it's a natural process and even at 53 I still consider myself 18 inside! I'm now on my 4th week of growth, and although grey, and a tad scruffy at the moment, it's getting compliments. Thanks for your inspirational videos :)
My profile picture is from way back, but now I have a salt and pepper beard. More salt these days! Before I grew my beard I have been highlighting and low lighting the hair on my head to mask the grey. I didn't have a lot of grey and I've typically looked younger than my age, so I opted for a youthful look for my hair. Now that I have my beard I am embracing the grey in my hair! I'm 52 years old now and I just try to be the best me I can be at any age!
I just turned 74 and 2+ months into a Covid beard. I realize that I'm not young anymore (and my body proves that to me daily) and even wanting to look young is in the rear view mirror. That is, I want a white beard and fortunately that's how it's coming in. Just slight salt and pepper in the mustache but that's OK. Otherwise I'm near to a 'Ken Rogers' beard and am impatient to get to the 4 month mark where I can consider what style I really want and see my barber. My teenage granddaughter thinks I should go full Santa, so there's that. No opposition from my wife either, thankfully. At 30ish I did my first beard, very dark and very unkempt and it only lasted a year or so. This time around there is so much more information available and I'm really enjoying the white beard and all the options I have. I'd post a picture here if I could but social media experts can find me and my beard out there in the ether.
I'm 32 and over the last 2 years I've pulled about a handful of gray/white hairs from my beard. Now probably in about 10 years from now I'll dye my beard because I haven't seen any gray/white hairs on the top of my head. My hair is thinning out on top, too.
I used to be able to cut out all the white hairs. Until it got totally out of control and i couldn't keep up. At that point I just totally gave up and embraced it. White/gray hair. Embrace the suck!
Ronin what about your pubes good sir??
Call me crazy but I think white and grey hair is sexy especially on a women! I'm 35, started getting grey hair at 33, and I love my grey! Just like my scars and tattoos they tell a story.
Nothing wrong with a bit of white and grey hair. It can definitely look great on a lot of people. Shows wisdom, doesn't it?

Brandon Blankenship yea me to!!
Beardbrand ABSOLUTELY!!!
lycan gypsy priest, Wear them with pride brother!
Tattoos are lame
I didn't have much of a problem with going grey or going bald. I'm guessing mainly because as far back as I can remember, my father was bald from the front to the crown and the rest was grey. Growing up with my dad like that, I was probably already use to the concept when it started happening to me. I have had a few people tell me that I would look younger if I colored my beard but I'm liking the grey so, it stays!
Been graying since i was about 22 years old (39 now). Still have some color and my beard is dark and a bit ginger with grey and white ends. I love the look.
I'm getting some grey in my beard now and I'm fine with it. While dying my hair or beard is not for me, I support people who want to do it.
Turning 54 this year, but I've dyed my beard since I was in my 20's. When I was young, my beard didn't have a uniform color, with brownish, more blondish, and even reddish areas and looked patchy and uneven. So having started back then just to have a uniform color that matched my natural hair color, I've continued. I started balding in my late 20's and by my 30's I began shaving my head. Then I started dying it to more closely match my eyebrows, but as the gray has become more prominent, most of the patchy coloring is gone and has turned gray and only the darkest parts of my original color have remained. I'm liking where it's ending up.
Ladco77 But you said that you were balding 30 years ago.
Im about to turn 31 and i would say I’m 50% grey/white in the beard. My chest is the same. I would always shave. But now I’m like zero fucks given . Gonna grow this out
I think the main factor is that naturally grey hair often is very coarse, while dyed hair can be soft and healthy looking while still giving you a wise appearance
So many do not really go grey ever. You only get grey hair if your hair was black once.. However, if you were blonde, redhead or had brown hair, your hair will be a mix of that and white hair..but not grey.
I had white hair since the age of 16, I used to dye it but after getting around 23, I stopped and focused more on maintaining a good haircut and people liked it.
Your grey hair makes you look stylish, and it gives you that movie star appearance.
For a long time I worked in security and law enforcement which required me to be clean shaven. Now I'm in my early 40s and have started to grow my beard again and have a bit of grey in it which I leave alone.
Last time I grew a beard was about 7 years ago. My hair was mostly brown with a few grays. I didn’t keep my beard more than a month.
Just a few months ago I decided to grow a beard for good, meaning that I’m determined to keep it no matter what. Somewhat to my surprise my beard is mostly gray now. But I like it.
My aim is for my beard to look as natural as possible, which means no trendy beard styles.
I’m currently writing a book that will discuss the history of shaving, and why it’s unnatural. My research is what led me to finally make the decision to go natural, and fight against social engineering.
Totally get that, we don't all have to go for the trendiest styles. Sometimes the absolute best look for us is to just go natural with what our beards want to do. That's not to say that you shouldn't take care of your beard but letting it growing is a great way to go!

Dante, Vergil, Raiden, Sephiroth, 2B... Japan has culturised silver.
My hair started changing at 16. I dyed it into my early 20s, but it started to thin, and I worried it was the dye causing that. By 30, my hair was pure white. 41 now, and everyone seems to love the white hair. I get asked if I color it white all the time, and yes old ladies want to touch it for some reason.
silver beards look the best in the sun light
I color my beard, I dislike the damn grey hairs. Now I am trying to grow a beard in full and I am a
little more relaxed on the grey showing through. It is what it is, and I will see what happens once
my 6 to 7 months of growing are up. Then I shall decide how to shape my look. Good video and
keep up the great work. Keep growing!
I started going grey at about 35. I colored for years. When I turned 50, I just got tired of the coloring. I've let it (hair/beard) go grey and have had so much positive feed back. Very happy. Just leave it alone.
Keeping my hair short, the coloring is SO MUCH WORK. (Rocking the fade cut now. VERY short.)
Beardbrand really did help me out a lot ? Although I should say not personally , as I live in the UK. But Greg Brezinski as helped me considerably
For years I've been growing a grey beard and get 2 or 3 months into it and get discouraged with the grey and shave it off. I wasn't until I saw how you rock the grey that I've decided to let it grow. Thanks for the motivation and for everyone else that can't wait...careful what you wish for. With the grey comes all the other "benefits" of aging...haha!
I'm 29 and getting grey hairs naturally on the sides of my head and I'm gonna let them be there. I like the look.
Super,During lockdown may2020 i enjoyed this video
I feel I may be in the minority to not want grey hair yet. Part of me is content with the fact I am thirty seven without gray hair yet, and without a longer beard, I look younger than my real age. At the same time, due to a younger appearance, I have always found myself wanting to dress, speak, and act in a more mature manner to be taken seriously.
Gray hair. Love it. Can wait to show mine to
I'm 26 and I've got a couple of greys/whites in my beard.
I really like them; I think they add some flare.
I also have one black, thick strain.
Otherwise I'm a Redbeard.
And I have brown hair.
Don't ask me, for all I know, I'm a chimera :)
Just let it go naturally grey, it will get there. Of course I do bleach mine in December for the season., its harsh on it though. But it does even out any yellow areas and those odd dark hairs that seem to come with aging as well.
I'm 31 and I'm starting to get gray hair in my beard and hair I used to worry about it but now I kinda like it
I've started getting gray in my 30s but when u have gray people wanna call u pops, old school,daddy and gram pa it can be annoying but I still rock it all that dying can take u hair out!
My hair genetics haven't been that great on me.
I started to recede at 15/16, sported my first grey head hairs at 18/19.
I'm now 28, almost 29. Most of my head hair is grey, what I have left - major hairloss but I keep it shaved to the bone. I'm actually having SMP next week to make it look like I have a full head of shaved hair.
I started getting a few greys in my beard about 2-3 years ago, I now have about 15-20 in my chin after recent inspection couple months ago (I keep my beard couple of inches long).
At first I was devastated "oh no, first my head and now I'm losing my lovely black beard".
Now I just want it all to go grey quickly cos I honestly think it will look awesome with a shaved head as long as its neat and trimmed. There are greater things to worry about in life. I'm just gonna rock my greying beard with confidence until I get that Geralt of Rivia look.
I'm 33 and my hair is almost as grey as yours and I'd say it started getting grey in late 20's
I got my first grey hair at 18 and now I'm as grey as Greg and I'm 37!!
I'm right there with you Greg. Natural Gray in early 40s. Have no issues with that. Personal call and I'm fine with that.
Right on! We say go for your own style!
- Jack
I started to see grey hairs when I was around 16 and slowly I've gotten more and more until now at 38 the hair on my head has been completely grey for about 10 years or so now. Although I've never died my hair, it's only the last few years I've really 'embraced' it. Although the my facial hair has virtually no grey at all.
I have to admit, that I LOVE my salt n pepper hair! It looks fantastic on short hair.
It does look dramatic, chic and modern...as strange as it sounds considering that i'm now in my 40's.
At this point in time, I'm leaving my very dark brown hair to mix effortlessly with my grey. Cheers! VEE
Whether its grey or black the beard is always the beard
I’m in my late 40’s & in the last few months I’ve noticed my red/ginger getting progressively greyer - I guess I’d like advice on how to dye it
Personally myself at 55 I don't know why you would want to dye your hair grey. If you are young
I've coloured my hair medium to dark brown since I was in my late 30s .
But at 55 I'm in a dilemma as to should I just let my hair go grey.
My parents bless them say I can still get away with darker hair. Yet my grandparents did not colour their hair and were still dark until their early 70s
But I feel at 55 am I just making a fool of myself.
My actual grey shade I don't like it's like an oxidizing aluminium,.
But I have thought about colouring it silver grey. Which to me is a nice shade of grey more dynamic.
So I'm going to try this and if it makes me look way older I will colour it back Brown the same day.
Like I said dilemma!
Well because of you of course
This videos exploring points of view on different subjects related to men's lifestyle are very good. Greg is an awesome orator. Keep up the good work!!!
People with premature grey hair only have it on their head and no other place..ugh...so stop askin' !!... It's genetic,runs in the family, you can't obviously change your genes, embrace what you have..and everyone is going grey these days..and you have 'em naturally..so #loveyourself
Kwaninoni thanks for the advice but I already did it .
ps: i have never been insecure about it and I actually like them 😂
Mr R you went grey??
Kwaninoni I mean ..I already started to go grey, the only annoying thing about it is when people notice it and they are like :"omg you have so much grey hair 😱😱"but other than that ,I feel like it is a part of me .
yup, i do have them too since my mid teens. :D check out my IG if interested to see it :)
You make grey hair look awesome !!
I got news : after 10 years of careful planning now I'm Gray and Becoming a Beardo.
Greetings to everyone.
Back in Grey!!!😅🌻❤️
I'm 23 years old & I'm having white hairs pop up in my beard, I don't like it & I have plucked some ( the ones that really stick out) & I've thought about dying it but I don't really know what dye to use, I thought about just for men but I have see some people have very serious reactions to it so I don't really want to use it, if I find something more natural I might use that, great video by the way.
FINALLY GOT 1!!!!!!! 🤜🏾🤛🏻💯
This fall I started to grow a larger beard to be Santa for the kids. Now that's done I like the look in the mirror and the notice. I enjoyed the tips here so I guess I'll be needing more hair products of course. Geez, still getting the looks at 59. Who knew?
Grey all the way! Trying to replicate your look minus the hair on top. Thank you for the videos, I️’ve been growing since February your tips/insight have been extremely helpful.
Glad you enjoyed the videos!
Greg's a great beard and style role model to have in your life!
- Jack
I say embrace the grey hair. I'm 32 and have a couple grey hairs in my beard it bothered me at first but you get used to it. Nothing wrong with grey hair.
Alot of people in "my generation" (late 30s - early 40s) want to look older and get grey or don't care about it, I believe, because it gives them an excuse to be lazy and not exercise and not be as active and be like "oh I'm old now," even though they're not....I have grey at the temple and on my chin and that looks good because of the contrast with blond/brown hair elsewhere. But I don't want to be all grey!!!!!
I started noticing grey hairs in my scalp and beard a year ago at 23, hopefully I'll be significantly grey by 30.
